Trial Outcomes & Findings for Overcoming Barriers to the Uptake of Cascade Screening for Lynch Syndrome: Workbook Feasibility Study (NCT NCT04978350)

NCT ID: NCT04978350

Last Updated: 2025-07-03

Results Overview

Participants evaluated the workbook using seven acceptability criteria rated on a 5-point Likert scale, where 1 indicated "Strongly Disagree" and 5 indicated "Strongly Agree." The criteria assessed ease of use, clarity of exercises, enjoyment, usefulness for understanding Lynch Syndrome, support for communicating genetic information, time acceptability, and overall satisfaction. Each participant's responses were summed up to produce a total acceptability score ranging from 7 to 35, with higher scores indicating greater acceptability. A score of 28 or higher (80% of the maximum score, which was 35) was defined as an acceptable intervention.
