?:abstract	OBJECTIVE: Self-isolation is a vital element of efforts to contain COVID-19 We set out to test whether decision aids can support self-isolation DESIGN: We conducted a pre-registered online experiment with a nationally representative sample (n = 500) Three stages tested: (i) whether decision trees help people to decide whether they need to self-isolate;(ii) whether an online planning tool increases people\'s confidence in their ability to self-isolate;and (iii) whether infographics help people to absorb advice on managing a household in which someone must self-isolate MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: (i) Accuracy of matching symptom patterns to a response scale for the need to self-isolate;(ii) self-reported confidence in coping with self-isolation;(iii) objective tests of recall and comprehension RESULTS: Decision trees improved decisions about when self-isolation was necessary, although participants systematically underestimated the need to self-isolate with less common COVID-19 symptoms (e g sore throat, fatigue) The online planning tool increased confidence about coping with self-isolation only among the adults aged under 40 Infographics improved recall and comprehension of how to manage self-isolation CONCLUSION: Decision aids can be used to support self-isolation during COVID-19 The study also demonstrates how even an emergency public health response can benefit from rapid experimental pre-testing of interventions OBJECTIVE: Self-isolation is a vital element of efforts to contain COVID-19.
