Effect of a Visual Nutrient Profiling System on Recall of Nutrition Information
A study testing Visual nutrient profiling tool and Nutrient ratings table in people with Healthy, run by University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
The objective of the study is to validate a visual method of presenting nutritional information by determining if users of the visual method remember food properties better than users given the same information in a non-visual form with texts and tables. Read more about this study

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Visual nutrient profiling toolBehavioural
Shown color coded fiber and protein 2x2 plot, selected fiber and protein ratings from boxes on the plot.
Nutrient ratings tableBehavioural
Showed nutrition information and had to match to fiber and protein ratings from a table.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Visual | Experimental | Group provided with nutrition information using visual nutrient profiling tool Receives: Behavioral: Visual nutrient profiling tool |
| Table | Other | Group provided nutrition information using table format Receives: Behavioral: Nutrient ratings table |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of correct responses for fiber and protein ratings of foods
Fiber and protein ratings (5 possible) for 30 foods must be recalled after being presented in a visual or tabular format. Distraction period occurred between presentation of information and recall (maze).
Measured: 10 minutes after presentation of nutrition information

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Visual nutrient profiling tool and Nutrient ratings table in people with Healthy, run by University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Number of correct responses for fiber and protein ratings of foods (time frame: 10 minutes after presentation of nutrition information). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Dec 2011.
