Trial Outcomes & Findings for Encouraging Healthy and Sustainable Dietary Substitutions (NCT NCT06175026)
NCT ID: NCT06175026
Last Updated: 2024-11-12
Results Overview
Participants will rate each message on perceived message effectiveness (PME) for encouraging participants to make the target dietary substitution. PME will be assessed with 4 items \[the text shown in brackets will be tailored to each substitution\]: 1. How much does this message discourage you from wanting to \[eat beef and pork / drink juice / drink cow's milk / drink sugary drinks\]? 2. How much does this message make \[eating beef and pork, etc.\] seem unpleasant to you? 3. How much does this message make you concerned about the effects of \[eating beef and pork, etc.\]? 4. How much does this message make you want to \[eat chicken or vegetarian options instead of beef and pork, etc.\]? The response options for each item are: 1=Not at all, 2=Very little, 3=Somewhat, 4=Quite a bit, 5=A great deal. Investigators will average responses to these 4 items to create a perceived message effectiveness score. Higher scores indicated higher perceived message effectiveness.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Survey questions administered after participant viewed each message; overall survey took up to 20 minutesParticipants will rate each message on perceived message effectiveness (PME) for encouraging participants to make the target dietary substitution. PME will be assessed with 4 items \[the text shown in brackets will be tailored to each substitution\]: 1. How much does this message discourage you from wanting to \[eat beef and pork / drink juice / drink cow's milk / drink sugary drinks\]? 2. How much does this message make \[eating beef and pork, etc.\] seem unpleasant to you? 3. How much does this message make you concerned about the effects of \[eating beef and pork, etc.\]? 4. How much does this message make you want to \[eat chicken or vegetarian options instead of beef and pork, etc.\]? The response options for each item are: 1=Not at all, 2=Very little, 3=Somewhat, 4=Quite a bit, 5=A great deal. Investigators will average responses to these 4 items to create a perceived message effectiveness score. Higher scores indicated higher perceived message effectiveness.
