I have done a quick search for studies involving choice of format (front and back of card, bifold brochure, or trifold brochure) but have not found anything. Based on anecdotal information and the fact that the audience has a wide range of health literacy skills, I lean towards choosing a front/back card format written in a plain language. Does anyone have references or anecdotes to back up that choice or to point us to another choice? Thanks, Patricia Mersereau, RN, MN, CPNP Battelle contractor for CDC/NCBDDD 1600 Clifton Rd., NE MS E-86 Atlanta, GA 30333 404-498-3871 pgm5@cdc.gov
