Study Details

Brief summary:

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if culturally targeted messaging about the human papillomavirus (HPV) increases receptivity to the HPV vaccine among African American parents of vaccine-eligible daughters. The main question it aims to answer is:

• Does culturally targeted messaging increase African American parents' intentions to vaccinate their daughter against HPV?

Research will compare culturally targeted messaging to general, educational messaging and no messaging.

Participants will:

  • View culturally targeted messages, education-only messages, or no messages about the HPV vaccine
  • Report their intentions to vaccinate their daughter against HPV
  • Report whether they have initiated HPV vaccination for their daughter six months later
