Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint is the proportion of participants who correctly recognized each computer-generated image of seizures of the first questionnaire. To evaluate, whether the observed proportion is significantly greater than 0.5 or not, we use z approximation. We will also test the correlation between the cognitive ability and the score of total correct answer. The statistically significant is set at p < 0.05. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| We will test the intrarater reliability by compare between the first and the second questionnaire. The interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) will be used to test the intrarater reliability. Cronbach’s alpha will be used to analyze the interrater reliability. | — |
