.... providing informative messages, such systems are somewhat limited when considering higher level goals in health education, such as changing behaviour, compliance with treatment regimes, reducing anxiety, decision support, etc [9] Few systems explicitly address these problems (see, for instance, [10, 38, 44]) but, again, they tend to be mainly based on domain knowledge, generally leaving other type of knowledge (e.g. strategies for producing messages) implicit in their planning mechanisms. The system of which we present some aspects here, DAPHNE 2 , tries to bridge this gap, being armed with ....

....is therefore significant interest in using computers to produce more tailored, individualised communications, either written (Osman et al. 1994; Strecher et al. 1994; Campbell et al. 2 A. CAWSEY et al. 1994; Hirst et al. 1997) or interactive (Buchanan et al. 1995; Jimison et al. 1992; McRoy et al. 1998). The aim of these communications may either be primarily health promotion (encouraging a particular behaviour change) or health education (providing information to enable the patient to better cope with a condition) Communications may be tailored to the user s specific problems and treatments ....

....evaluation of this system was carried out, so results are only suggestive of the benefits of this kind of approach. Somewhat simpler techniques, but with similar motivation, have been used in a prototype system to provide tailored interactive materials linked to a dynamic history taking module (McRoy et al. 1998). In this system definitions of medical concepts can be tailored to the patient s specific problems, and menus of links to potentially relevant online information presented. Only an initial qualitative evaluation has been carried out. There are also now an increasing number of health promotion and ....
