What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Improvement in Scores on HCV Knowledge Questionnaire

    The main outcome measure was a change in the mean score on a 25-item HCV knowledge assessment without subscales. The instrument values ranged from 0 to 25 with one point per correct answer to questions directly arising from the information contained in the video. One point was assigned to each correct answer, and an increase in the score indicated more correct responses.

    Measured: Pre-intervention, Immediate post-intervention, and 1 mo. follow up
