What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Trust in the post, as measured by a 4-point Likert scale
Time Frame: Post-intervention (~5 minutes)
A single question is asked of "How much do you trust the information in the post?" Participants used a 4-point Likert scale from 1 (trust the information completely) to 4 (Did not trust the information). Scores range from 1-4, with higher scores indicating less trust.
Post-intervention (~5 minutes)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Short-form Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) Positive Score
Time Frame: Post-intervention (~5 minutes)
The Short-form Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS-SF) is a brief, 10-item psychometric tool used to assess two distinct emotional dimensions: Positive Affect (e.g., active, inspired) and Negative Affect (e.g., upset, afraid). Respondents rate each of the 10 adjectives on a 5-point Likert scale. Scores can range from 10 - 50, with higher scores representing higher levels of positive affect.
Post-intervention (~5 minutes)
Short-form Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) Negative Score
Time Frame: Post-intervention (~5 minutes)
The Short-form Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS-SF) is a brief, 10-item psychometric tool used to assess two distinct emotional dimensions: Positive Affect (e.g., active, inspired) and Negative Affect (e.g., upset, afraid). Respondents rate each of the 10 adjectives on a 5-point Likert scale. Scores can range from 10 - 50, with lower scores representing lower levels of negative affect.
Post-intervention (~5 minutes)

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

YES

IPD Plan Description

The de-identified participant data from the final research dataset will be shared upon reasonable request beginning 9 to 36 months after publication or as required by a condition of awards or supporting agreements, provided the requesting investigator executes a data use agreement with NYU Langone Health. This instance of data sharing will also require separate IRB review as well as review from NYU Langone's Data Sharing Strategy Board (DSSB). Requests should be directed to: stacy.loeb@nyulangone.org. The protocol and statistical analysis plan will be posted on Clinicaltrials.gov only as required by federal regulation or supporting awards and agreements.

IPD Sharing Time Frame

Beginning 9 months and ending 36 months following article publication or as required by a condition of awards and agreements supporting the research.

IPD Sharing Access Criteria

The investigator who proposed to use the data after signing a data use agreement will be granted access upon reasonable request for biomedical research purposes. Requests should be directed to stacy.loeb@nyulangone.org. To gain access, data requestors will need to sign a data access agreement.
