Methods: The structured questionnaire, based on Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation theory, was developed to identify factors affecting the effectiveness of infographics in health communication. 715 respondents divided into two groups received a combination of infographics and text message to see the effectiveness of infographics as compared to textual messages. The characteristics of the group with the highest and the lowest effectiveness of infographics were analyzed through decision tree. Results: The effectiveness of infographics in health communication compared with textual data was 3.36-3.57, which showed a positive attitude toward infographics in all aspects.
