Official Title: A Pilot Study Comparing the Effectiveness of On-site Campus Interventions to Increase the Uptake of the HPV Three-shot Series Vaccine Among College Aged Men: A 2 X 2 Repeated Design
Brief Summary:
This is a study testing what type of message and access influences a young male to get the HPV vaccine.
The investigators are conducting a 2 X 2 design
These conditions are:
The objectives of this study are:
A. To examine the efficacy in encouraging young men to receive HPV shots at Time 1 within each of the four intervention conditions (altruistic/personal with direct recommendation vs. generic message) X (in-dorm vs. outside-dorm HPV vaccine).
B. To examine the efficacy in encouraging young men to receive HPV shots at Times 2 & 3 within each of the four intervention conditions (altruistic/personal with direct recommendation vs. generic message) X (in-dorm vs. outside-dorm HPV vaccine).
2.1.1 List the clinical hypotheses. Objective A H A.1: At Time 1, college men who have immediate access to the HPV vaccination will take the vaccination at a higher rate than those who do not have immediate access to the vaccine.
H A.2: At Time 1, college men who receive an altruistic/personal health message along with immediate access to the HPV vaccine will take the HPV vaccination at a higher rate than the men in the other three arms of the study.
