Evaluating Prostate Cancer Websites
30 November 2009
We
are looking for volunteers to evaluate the effectiveness of UK Prostate
Link and other websites as a source of information for prostate cancer.
We want to study in detail how people search websites for prostate
cancer information, and how useful they find the information they find.
This
will involve us capturing your thoughts and comments on various
websites in "real time" while you search them. We will also ask about
your experiences of finding prostate cancer information on the internet
generally.
Our findings will be written up and shared with the signatories of the
Prostate Cancer Charter for Action (www.prostatecharter.org.uk).
Individual contributions will be anonymised.
The sessions will take place on the 12th-13th January in central Oxford. They will last no more than 2 hours.
All volunteers will receive £50 as a thank you gesture and reimbursed travel expenses.
If you can't make it along to one of these sessions you can still let us know what you think by completing this questionnaire.
We would particularly welcome help from the following groups:
- Patients with an early prostate cancer diagnosis
- Patients with advanced disease
- Family and friends of prostate cancer sufferers
- General Practitioners
- Specialist Nurses
- Urologists
- Oncologists
