In brief

This study investigates different ways to educate rural residents living in New Hampshire and Vermont about cancer research studies and clinical trials to increase knowledge of, increase positive attitudes toward, and encourage enrollment in cancer research studies and clinical trials. The information learned from this study will contribute to a nation-wide initiative to educate the public about clinical trials, including a nation-wide evaluation of that initiative. The results of this study may also help researchers understand how education about clinical trials/research affects knowledge of and attitudes toward cancer research and clinical trials, as well as behavioral intentions and actual behaviors related to enrolling in cancer research studies and clinical trials.
