Reflections: a hierarchy of criteria for evaluating microcomputer-based health education.

Abstract

A brief background on the status of microcomputer-based health education programs is presented. Within the current context, the authors propose a series of 13 questions arranged in hierarchical fashion to evaluate microcomputer-based health education. The value of this approach is that technically flawed programs can be screened out and important health education concerns can be integrated into an evaluation of software.
