摘要

背景:为我健康着色 "症状报告应用程序是由学龄癌症儿童、其父母和临床医生共同设计的。初步研究证明了它的可行性和可接受性,但儿童和家长认为需要进一步改进:方法:在技术接受模型和以用户为中心的设计原则指导下,本研究对 "为我健康着色 "用户界面的改进和可用性评估提供了支持。在程序设计团队完成应用程序构建的过程中,学龄癌症儿童及其家长参与了认知演练可用性评估和定性访谈。可用性日志记录了与报告疼痛和审查儿童报告数据有关的关键任务的完成情况。家长完成了技术接受模型感知有用性量表 (TAM-PUS)。采用定性内容分析法对访谈回答进行了分析:14名儿童(中位数年龄为8.5岁;范围为6-12岁)和14名家长(中位数年龄为38.5岁;范围为34-49岁)参加了三个可用性评估周期中的一个。第三个周期结束后,儿童和家长独立浏览了应用程序并完成了关键任务。TAM-PUS得分中位数为6分(范围6-8分),表明感知有用性较高。定性分析显示,儿童认为该应用程序使用起来简单有趣。家长们则强调了该应用程序对他们的孩子以及作为孩子看护者的自己的发展意义:本研究表明,修订后的 "为我的健康着色 "应用程序的实用性和易用性得到了认可。通过关注儿童和家长的用户需求来优化 "Color Me Healthy "应用程序的可用性,可以使该应用程序在临床上得到更广泛的应用。

Usability Evaluation of the Revised Color Me Healthy Symptom Assessment App: Perspectives of Children and Parents.

Background: The Color Me Healthy symptom reporting app was co-designed with school-age children with cancer, their parents, and clinicians. Preliminary studies demonstrated its feasibility and acceptability; however, children and parents identified the need for additional refinements.

Methods: Guided by the Technology Acceptance Model and principles of user-centered design, this study supported refinements to the Color Me Healthy user interface and evaluation of its usability. As the programming team completed builds of the app, school-age children with cancer and their parents participated in cognitive walkthrough usability evaluations and qualitative interviews. Usability logs documented the completion of key tasks related to reporting pain and review of child-reported data. Parents completed the Technology Acceptance Model Perceived Usefulness Scale (TAM-PUS). Interview responses were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.

Results: Fourteen children (median age 8.5 years; range 6-12) and 14 parents (median age 38.5 years; range 34-49) participated in one of three usability evaluation cycles. After the third cycle, children and parents navigated the app and completed key tasks independently. Median TAM-PUS scores were 6 (range 6-8), indicating high perceived usefulness. Qualitative analyses indicated that children regarded the app as easy and fun to use. Parents emphasized the app's developmental relevance for their child and for themselves as the child's caregiver.

Conclusions: This study demonstrates the perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use of the revised Color Me Healthy app. Optimizing the usability of the Color Me Healthy app with attention to the user needs of children and parents positions the app for wider-scale clinical implementation.

期刊介绍: Children is an international, open access journal dedicated to a streamlined, yet scientifically rigorous, dissemination of peer-reviewed science related to childhood health and disease in developed and developing countries. The publication focuses on sharing clinical, epidemiological and translational science relevant to children’s health. Moreover, the primary goals of the publication are to highlight under‑represented pediatric disciplines, to emphasize interdisciplinary research and to disseminate advances in knowledge in global child health. In addition to original research, the journal publishes expert editorials and commentaries, clinical case reports, and insightful communications reflecting the latest developments in pediatric medicine. By publishing meritorious articles as soon as the editorial review process is completed, rather than at predefined intervals, Children also permits rapid open access sharing of new information, allowing us to reach the broadest audience in the most expedient fashion.
