CommunICation of bEnefit Risk Information: an Online Randomised Controlled Trial (CICERO)
How health-related information is communicated affects what is understood and might influence how people make decisions and how confident they feel in participating in clinical shared decision-making.
The CICERO trial will compare three different communication tools providing information on fictional interventions for a common medical problem (i.e. social anxiety disorder) both in terms of how well interventions work (benefit) and also possible harms associated (risk). The three communication tools ("Summary of Findings table", "Kilim plot", and "Vitruvian plot") differ in how they present information: exclusively written, primarily written and partially graphical, or mixed written and visual. Each participant will be asked to go through one clinical scenario.
The investigators will ask participants to familiarise themselves with the tool they have been allocated to (either a plot or a table) and then answer some validated questionnaires to measure how useful and efficient the communication strategy was.
The entire study occurs online in a single study session (about 20 minutes).
The results of the CICERO trial will inform how to communicate research findings to the general population, facilitating their implementation in clinical shared decision-making.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Decisional Conflict Scale, low literacy version
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Higher scores indicate worse outcomes (min = 0; max = 100).
|
through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Decision Self-Efficacy scale
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Higher scores indicate better outcomes (min = 0; max = 100).
|
through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Preparation for Decision Making scale
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Higher scores indicate better outcomes (min = 0; max = 100).
|
through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Information comprehension (proportion of participants providing a correct answer)
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Participants will be asked to choose one of multiple (fictional) medical interventions based on their characteristics as part of the clinical scenario.
The question related to the clinical scenario allows only one correct answer.
|
through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Other Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of minutes to complete the questionnaire
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
|
Automated measurement from the first access to the online questionnaire (first input) to its completion (last input), assessed up to the end of the study (continuous outcome).
|
through study completion, an average of 20 minutes
