自我管理的多媒体健康素养措施在临床设置是一个新的概念。经证明的易用性和可接受性将有助于预测该策略的未来价值。我们之前证明了“会说话的触摸屏”用于健康状态评估的可接受性。在这项研究中，我们调整了触摸屏，用于新的健康素养措施的自我管理。初级保健患者（n = 610）在诊所的服务不足的人群完成了健康状况和健康素养的问题上的触摸屏，并参加了采访。参与者中有51%是女性，10%年龄在60岁以上，67%是非洲裔美国人，18%没有高中教育，14%没有任何计算机经验。大多数人（93%）使用触摸屏没有困难，包括那些电脑新手（87%）。大多数人将屏幕设计评为非常好或优秀（72%），包括计算机初治患者（71%）和老年患者（75%）。触摸屏的可接受性没有因健康素养水平而异。Talking Touchscreen易于使用，可用于新的健康素养措施的自我管理。自我管理应减少工作人员的负担和成本，面试偏见，以及文化程度较低的人的尴尬感。像Talking Touchscreen这样的工具可能会增加服务不足人群对新技术的接触。
Self-administration of a multimedia health literacy measure in clinic settings is a novel concept. Demonstrated ease of use and acceptability will help predicate the future value of this strategy. We previously demonstrated the acceptability of a “Talking Touchscreen” for health status assessment. For this study, we adapted the touchscreen for self-administration of a new health literacy measure. Primary care patients (n = 610) in clinics for underserved populations completed health status and health literacy questions on the Talking Touchscreen and participated in an interview. Participants were 51% women, 10% age 60+, 67% African American, 18% without a high school education, and 14% without any prior computer experience. The majority (93%) had no difficulty using the touchscreen, including those who were computer-naïve (87%). Most rated the screen design as very good or excellent (72%), including computer-naïve patients (71%) and older patients (75%). Acceptability of the touchscreen did not differ by health literacy level. The Talking Touchscreen was easy to use and acceptable for self-administration of a new health literacy measure. Self-administration should reduce staff burden and costs, interview bias, and feelings of embarrassment by those with lower literacy. Tools like the Talking Touchscreen may increase exposure of underserved populations to new technologies.
