User Feedback Study on Zelfmoord1813.be and Related Suicide Prevention Websites

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to evaluate the user experience and accessibility of suicide prevention information available on the Flemish websites Zelfmoord1813.be and its related platforms WerkgroepVerder.be, Mee-Leven.be, and KomUitJeKop.be. The study supports the third Flemish Suicide Prevention Action Plan, which targets reducing the suicide rate by 10% by 2030 compared to 2020. These platforms provide crisis support and scientifically grounded information for a broad audience across all age groups in Flanders. Participants in the study are visitors aged 16 and older who access any of the four suicide prevention websites. The study involves an observational one-time questionnaire with no intervention. Visitors will see a pop-up invitation to participate after 30 seconds on these websites, leading to a 5-minute questionnaire via Qualtrics after giving informed consent. Users can also choose to provide feedback through a link available on each site at their convenience. During the study, researchers will assess users reasons for visiting the platforms, whether they find the information they seek, and their satisfaction with the content. The main outcome measure is the evaluation of the websites based on questionnaire responses. The study plans to include 3,000 participants and is managed by the Flemish Centre of Expertise in Suicide Prevention, aiming to guide future improvements and promotional strategies for suicide prevention resources.
