Colorectal Cancer Screening Intervention Study

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Colorectal Cancer

In brief

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer mortality in the United States, and African Americans (AfAms) still fare worse in CRC incidence and mortality compared to European Americans (EuAms). We propose to examine whether combining both fear-reduction and racially-targeted norm-based messages will increase at-home stool-based CRC screening receptivity and uptake for all African American regardless of level of racial identity. Given low return rates of at-home screening kits, we will also explore whether making an explicit commitment to return screening kits is associated with increased kit returns.
