Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The overall aims of this project are to: 1) create a developmentally appropriate interactive educational website for adolescents called DigiKnowIt News: Teen, and 2) examine the feasibility of DigiKnowIt News: Teen in a small randomized control trial with adolescents.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Youth (N=30) will be recruited to participate in the feasibility study. Parent permission and youth assent will be sought. Participants will be randomized into one of two study arms: intervention and wait-list control. All participants will complete a web-based pre-test questionnaire. Youth in the intervention group will then receive access to DigiKnowIt News: Teen for one week. Approximately one week after completing the pre-test questionnaire, all participants will complete a web-based post-test questionnaire (the post-test for youth in the intervention group will also include Consumer Satisfaction Questions). Youth in the wait-list control group will then receive access to DigiKnowIt News: Teen for one week. After one week, they will complete a Consumer Satisfaction Questionnaire.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Educational website intervention

The intervention is an educational website designed to teach youth (12-17 years) about pediatric clinical trials.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

DigiKnowIt News: Teen

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Teens will interact with a multimedia educational website that will teach them about pediatric clinical trials including topics such as participant rights and safety, benefits and costs to participating in a study, and different types of procedures used in trials.

Wait-list control

The wait-list control group did not receive the intervention between the pre-test and post-test assessments. After completing the post-test questionnaire, youth in the wait-list control group had the option to receive access to the intervention (DigiKnowIt News).

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
