Okay With Asthma

Today’s widely accepted biobehavioral models promote self-care in children when these children have guidance from families and support from school, peers, and the community. Okay with Asthma, v.2.0 (OKWA V2), built on a biobehavioral model, is an innovative program for children between 8 and 11 years of age that teaches about asthma management including psychosocial strategies. This feasibility test examines the usability (design, interactivity, functionality, and interface) and engagement of the program through focus groups with 8 to 11 year old children who have asthma. The feasibility testing is guided by Nielsen’s usability model  (NUM) and Said’s engaging multimedia design model (EMDM).

This work is supported by the National Institutes of Health under Grant# 1RO3011352-01.
