Do we need a high level of detail in health information animations? An experimental study investigating the association between level of detail and information recall.

This study examined the potential of simple animations with a low level of detail and their impact on patient's ability to recall information. Also, we examined how the patients' digital health literacy influenced the association. Over 900 Danish adults were continuously included in this experimental study, and they were allocated to either an animation with a low or high level of detail.
