Abstract

AbstractThis methodology poster introduces an ongoing study seeking to validate an extended typology of web credibility assessments proposed by Choi and Stvilia (2015) using online surveys. The study focuses on health‐related topics as an important subject domain for web credibility assessments. The poster describes the study's theoretical background and methodology, especially the process of developing and testing the online survey questionnaire, which consists of 89 questions in five sections: internet use and experience, health information seeking, web credibility assessment, outcomes of web credibility assessment, and demographic factors. A pretest of the online survey questionnaire was conducted with eight doctoral students, in which each participant answered the questions and provided feedback on the survey design. Pretest results and future research directions are discussed.
