What is being measured

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

  1. Decision conflict

    We'd like to measure the score of SURE test, which published by Légaré at 2008, as a decisional conflict scale. SURE includes 4 questions representing "sure of myself, understand information, risk-benefit ratio, encouragement". Each question consisted of a typical five-level Likert item (strongly disagree, disagree, neither agree nor disagree, agree, strongly agree).

    Measured: Immediately after patient received standard oral explanation with booklet or decision aids at out-patient department

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Health literacy

    Self-evaluation score of health literacy. We measure health literacy via one question of SURE test (Sure of myself - Do you feel SURE about the best choice for you?). This question also consisted of a typical five-level Likert item (strongly disagree, disagree, neither agree nor disagree, agree, strongly agree).

    Measured: Immediately after patient received standard oral explanation with booklet or decision aids at out-patient department
