MyMenoPlan: Online Resource for Improving Women's Menopause Knowledge and Informed Decision-making

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
As part of a National Institute on Aging -funded R01, the investigators developed an evidence-based, multi-media digital resource entitled MyMenoPlan to help women learn about the menopause transition, and the symptoms and treatments of perimenopause/menopause. MyMenoPlan is also designed to help women learn about the effectiveness of treatments for a comprehensive list of midlife symptoms and compare treatments that may help with the specific symptoms women are experiencing.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The purpose of this research study is to: Investigate how women randomly assigned to visit MyMenoPlan use the website (time spent on website, treatment and symptom page views, use of interactive tools, and use of the MyMenoPlan tool). Compare the ratings of women randomly assigned to MyMenoPlan to those randomly assigned to other menopause websites for perceived quality of information, readability, self-efficacy, and credibility of these online menopause resources.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Perceived Quality of Information | This 7-item, 5-point Likert scale (1- Strongly disagree to 5 - Strongly agree) is adapted from the Post-Study System Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ) in Lewis (1995). Items: Reading the information made me feel in more control of my perimenopause/menopause. The information on the website(s) was helpful to me. I found the information I was looking for. The information answered my questions about perimenopause/menopause. I liked the website (s). I would have liked more in-depth information. (reverse-coded) The website(s) were fairly comprehensive about perimenopause /menopause. | Each survey question is answered after spending at least 20 minutes on the assigned website(s) | 
| Readability | This 2-item, 5-point Likert (1- Strongly disagree to 5 - Strongly agree)scale was derived from the Standardized User Experience Percentile Rank Questionnaire (SUPR-Q) in Sauro (1995). Items: The information I read was clear. The information I read was easy for me to understand. | Each survey question is answered after spending at least 20 minutes on the assigned website(s) | 
| Self-Efficacy for Managing Menopause Symptoms | This is a newly developed Likert scale (1- Strongly disagree to 5 - Strongly agree) for assessing participants' beliefs in their own abilities in managing menopausal symptoms. Items: If I want to, I am certain I could figure out the treatments or coping strategies that would work best for me. I feel I could treat or cope with my symptoms of perimenopause/menopause if I want to. | Each survey question is answered after spending at least 20 minutes on the assigned website(s) | 
| Credibility | This 2-item, 5-point Likert (1- Strongly disagree to 5 - Strongly agree) scale was derived from the Standardized User Experience Percentile Rank Questionnaire (SUPR-Q) in Sauro (1995). Items: The information is credible. The information is trustworthy. | Each survey question is answered after spending at least 20 minutes on the assigned website(s) |
