Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 衛生教育學系 === 95 === Abstract Introduction: The effectiveness of the printed material is not only delivering knowledge but also reinforcing behavior. The information can be accessibility if readers can easily read and understand. Various studies have reported that a well-designed information material is characterized several categories, such as content, language, organization, layout, illustration, and learning motivation. For breast cancer, many printed materials have been produced including detection, disability limitation, rehabilitation, and comprehensive information. However, few study was investigated the patient’s and nurses` perspective of the marketed printed materials. The purpose of this study was to compare the result of evaluation of the printed materials with breast cancer between patients and nurses for developing a suitable health education material. Method: In this study, 15 women who aged 54.8 ± 5.7 with breast cancer and 15 nurses who aged 30.7 ± 7.15 have been working in General Surgery or Oncology. They used a Liker- scale to evaluate the 20 printed materials was published in five years by public health centers, hospitals, charitable organizations, and medical centers website. In addition, the summary evaluation was assessed with 1 star to 5 stars. Materials need was listed for participants` need. Result: the mean of evaluation of each material in patients was higher than nurses. The result of evaluation of Coefficient of concordance of all printed materials in patients were significant (P<.05, p<.001). In contrast, five out of 20 were incoherent in nurses. Otherwise, the two groups have the similar perspective with ranking the last one- third materials. It means that patients possessed the ability of assessment to discriminate the quality of the printed materials. On summary evaluation, most materials were given 3-4 stars in patients. Yet two of the materials which published on the medical centers website were 2 stars in nurses. Materials need in two group was little different. Patients preferred the category of content and organization, and none of them chosen motivation for priority need. On the other hand, nurses` main concern was content and motivation. For the last three materials need, layout and illustration were their choice in both of groups. The study has aimed to understand the reader viewpoint for professionals for developing the effectual printed material.
