Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this project is to evaluate the effects on influenza related knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of exposure to tailored/targeted health messages and contextualized information about influenza like illness delivered to subjects through a personally controlled health record system. The main study hypothesis is that exposure to more intensive levels of personalized and contextualized information about risk will result in increased knowledge about influenza, greater attributions of immunization safety and efficacy, improved health protecting behaviors including higher levels of appropriate immunization.
