中国移民可能会将痴呆症的病理性衰退视为正常衰老的一部分（Woo和Mehta， 2017）。虽然互联网可能是中国移民健康信息的一个来源，但中文在线痴呆症信息的质量低于英文（Tsiang和Woo， 2017）。最近的研究已经证明了YouTube视频向讲中文的普通公众传播健康信息的可行性（Lam et al., 2017; Zheng and Woo, 2017）。因此，我们评估了YouTube在英国针对华语人群的表现，这些人群属于患痴呆症的高风险年龄组（例如55岁及以上）。
Chinese immigrants may dismiss pathological decline of dementia as part of normal aging (Woo and Mehta, 2017). While the internet may be a source of health information for Chinese immigrants, the quality of online dementia information was lower in Chinese than in English (Tsiang and Woo, 2017). Recent studies have demonstrated feasibility of YouTube videos in disseminating health information to the Chinese-speaking general public (Lam et al., 2017; Zheng and Woo, 2017). Therefore, we evaluated the performance of YouTube in targeting Chinese-speaking individuals in Britain who are in the high risk age group (e.g. aged 55 years and above) of developing dementia.
