Communicating Heart Disease Risk: Development and testing of a health-literate decision aid for people with low health literacy dataset

Full description

This dataset includes 859 participants aged 45-74 years (52.8% females and 47.2% males) randomised to see one of six different versions of the results page: either a version aimed at lower health literacy, a standard version, or one as the Heart Foundation present it, and each of those three either with percentage risk of having heart attack or stroke, or percentage risk plus heart age. Baseline data includes demographics (age, heart age, sex, education and health literacy), clinical characteristics (cholesterol, HDL, blood pressure, BMI), behaviour and lifestyle characteristics (dietary, exercise and smoking habits) and risk results. Outcome data includes prevention intentions and behaviours, gist and verbatim knowledge of risk, credibility, emotional response, and decisional conflict. The file type is .XLS.
