Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryeHealth LiteracyBaseline and immediately after the 4-week intervention
eHealth literacy will be assessed using the eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS), an 8-item self-report questionnaire that measures perceived ability to locate, understand, evaluate, and use online health information. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale. Item scores will be summed to produce a total score ranging from 8 to 40. Higher scores indicate higher perceived eHealth literacy. The outcome will be assessed at baseline and immediately after the four-week intervention.
PrimaryDigital Health Literacy (DHLI)Baseline and immediately after the 4-week intervention
Digital health literacy(DHLI) will be assessed using the 30-item Chinese version of the Digital Health Literacy Instrument. The instrument includes 23 self-report items and 7 objective performance-based items. Self-report items assess perceived digital health literacy using a 4-point Likert scale. Task-difficulty items range from 1, very easy, to 4, very difficult; frequency-of-difficulty items range from 1, never, to 4, often. Self-report items will be reverse-coded. Total self-report scores range from 23 to 92, with higher scores indicating better perceived digital health literacy. Objective items are scored as correct (1) or incorrect (0), with total scores ranging from 0 to 7; higher scores indicate better performance. Assessments will occur at baseline and immediately after the 4-week intervention.
PrimaryHealth Information Judgment AccuracyBaseline and immediately after the 4-week intervention
Health information judgment accuracy will be assessed using the Researcher Developed Scenario Based Health Information Judgment Test. The test includes four health information scenarios at baseline and four comparable scenarios after the intervention. Each scenario is scored as correct (1) or incorrect (0). Total scores range from 0 to 4, with higher scores indicating greater accuracy in judging the credibility or accuracy of online health information. The outcome will be assessed at baseline and immediately after the four-week intervention.
