Normalizing preteen HPV vaccination with practice-based communication strategies (Protect Them)
This study seeks to adapt and test a culturally-relevant, web-based game intervention to motivate Spanish-speaking preteens to initiate and complete human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination. The present study will adapt an existing web-based game developed as an educational tool on HPV vaccination for English-speaking preteens in North Carolina. The study includes the recruitment of paired dyads (Spanish-speaking preteens and parents) to focus groups to evaluate the acceptability of cultural adaptations to the existing web-based game intervention. We will recruit up to 25 parents and preteens ages 11-12 who will receive a link to the Spanish game to play for 7-10 days in advance of the focus group discussions. The focus groups will ask participants about cultural and language adaptations to the existing game and how they react to a game that will serve as an interactive, educational tool on HPV vaccination. The focus groups will take place in Harrisburg, PA between January and March of 2018. No health information will be collected as part of this study.
