Video Education for Firefighter Cancer Prevention

This study is looking at whether short documentary-style videos can help firefighters understand their cancer risk better and encourage them to take steps to prevent cancer. You would watch one of five randomly assigned 5-minute videos (Video 1: San Francisco, brain cancer survivor; Video 2: Sacramento, colorectal/lung cancer; Video 3: LA, colorectal cancer; Video 4: LA, melanoma; Video 5: LA, breast cancer). Researchers want to see if watching these videos makes firefighters feel more susceptible to cancer, less hesitant about prevention, and more confident in their ability to reduce risk. The study is open to current active career California firefighters aged 18 and older. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design

What's involved
You would complete a survey before watching a video and another survey after watching the video.
