Empowering Vietnamese Americans: HPV Vaccination Study

This study aims to understand if short videos can help Vietnamese American mothers decide to vaccinate their children against HPV (human papillomavirus), which can prevent certain cancers. We are looking for Vietnamese American mothers, aged 18 or older, who are the main caregiver for an unvaccinated child between 11 and 14 years old, and can speak and read English or Vietnamese. You would need to agree to receive text messages or emails. Participants will be randomly assigned to watch either four short stories about the HPV vaccine, created by Vietnamese mothers (Digital Intervention for Vietnamese-American Storytelling - VIDAS), or four short videos about general teen health topics like mental health. We will measure if your child starts the HPV vaccine and your intention to vaccinate your child over a two-month period. The study plans to enroll 60 participants, but the current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study with 60 Vietnamese American mothers. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups to watch different sets of videos.
What's involved
You would watch one 3-minute video per week for four weeks. You would also agree to receive text messages and/or emails related to project activities.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your child's HPV vaccine initiation and your intention to vaccinate will be measured at a 2-month follow-up after the intervention.
