Résumé en anglais

Infographics are gaining in popularity as a promising knowledge translation (KT) tool to reach multiple health research users. This scoping review explores the depth and breadth of empirical evidence available on infographics' use and its effectiveness. A systematic search was conducted across MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycInfo, Social Science Abstracts, ERIC, Cairn, Google Scholar, and Google Web. Articles were screened and abstracted independently by two reviewers. Among the 2173 sources identified, 21 met inclusion criteria. Of the included studies, 71% were published since 2018, 76% were conducted in North America, and 22% addressed cancer prevention. A great diversity in research designs and indicators is observed. Most studies used self-reported questionnaires often administered post-intervention. In general, infographics are appreciated, considered visually appealing, perceived as useful and easy to understand. According to experimental studies identified, infographics would not be more effective than other tools for information acquisition and retention, intention to act, and behavior change, except for specific subgroups. However, more studies are necessary to better understand the added value of infographics for knowledge translation compared to other dissemination tools, considering different target audiences and types of knowledge, and to identify characteristics (e.g., structure, message framing) that may influence their impact.< Réduire
