Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness between interactive board game health education and conventional health education in improving community-dwelling adults' stroke knowledge and self-reported stroke health literacy, including risk factors, symptoms, acute management of stroke, and 6 aspects of self-reported stroke health literacy. The intervention group will receive an interactive board game in a group (2\~6 individuals), while the control group was assigned to read the health education flier and watching the stroke prevention video. The follow-up period was set to be four weeks after the intervention, both control group, and intervention group.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change from Baseline Stroke Knowledge and Literacy right after the intervention.

    Participants' stroke knowledge and literacy were assessed by a questionnaire. Good stroke literacy was determined according to fulfillment of the following criteria: (1) the brain was recognized as the main damaged organ; (2) at least five risk factors of stroke were identified; (3) more than five stroke symptoms were identified; and (4) in case of a stroke, the identified appropriate response was to call 119 immediately. For risk factors and symptoms, according to each correct answer given, a score of either 0 or 1 is given, 1 being the right answer given. A higher score would indicate a better knowledge of the risk factors and symptoms of stroke.

    Right after the intervention

  • Change from Baseline Stroke Knowledge and Literacy at 4 weeks.

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive interactive board game health education.

Behavioral: Interactive board game health education

Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants will receive conventional health education.

Behavioral: Conventional health education

Interventions

The interactive board game includes risk factors, symptoms, and acute management of stroke. It's a card game combined with (1) addition and subtraction game (risk factors).
