Preferences for online or in-person STI testing vary by where a person lives and their cultural background: a survey of young Australians
It is clear that there is considerable interest among young people in using online STI testing, but it may not be right for all individuals. Understanding what factors associated with online testing are valued by young users can help inform marketing strategies that highlight these value propositions in their messaging. Further research is needed to engage young people and develop a high-quality, usable online service.
