Conclusions: Findings related to Web-use skills differences suggest two classes of interventions to facilitate access to good-quality online health information. Challenges related to findings (1) and (2) should be remedied by improving people’s basic Web-use skills. In particular, Web users should be taught how to avoid information overload by generating specific search terms and to avoid low-quality information by requesting results from trusted websites only. Problems related to finding (3) may be remedied by visually labeling search engine results according to quality criteria. %M 22695686 %R 10.2196/jmir.2051 %U //www.mybigtv.com/2012/3/e87/ %U https://doi.org/10.2196/jmir.2051 %U http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22695686
