Treatment and study plan

educational program

Behavioral

Culturally and linguistically tailored program consisting of community health worker (CHW)-led education sessions followed by patient navigation (PN) services.

Primary outcomes

  1. CRC screening completion (yes/no)

    Time frame: Month 6

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ-B) score

    Time frame: Baseline, Month 6

    The IPQ-B is a 9-item questionnaire (validated in the Chinese population) that assesses CRC beliefs according to CRC beliefs according to SRM constructs (SRM) constructs. Each item is rated on a scale from 0 (strong disagree) to 10 (strongly agree). Total scores range from 0-90, with higher scores indicating a greater threat and worse perception of illness.

  2. Change in Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ) score

    Time frame: Baseline, Month 6

    The BMQ, validated in the Chinese population, adapted to assess concerns/necessity of CRC screening is a 5 items questionnaire. Items are assessed on a scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Total scores range from 5-25, with higher scores indicating positive beliefs about CRC screening.

  3. Change in number of barriers to care

    Time frame: Baseline, Month 6

    Participants re asked to select all that apply to barriers in care: Cost, Transportation, Lack of time, Fear of results, Embarrassment, Lack of trust in doctors, Language barriers, Other. Each item selected is counted, a decrease in the number of items selected indicates reduced barriers to care.

  4. Change in trust in health/community health workers

    Time frame: Baseline, Month 6

    Group-based medical mistrust scale consists of 2 statements of mistrust and 2 statements of trust. Each statement can be answered with 1) Strongly Disagree, 2) Disagree, 3) Neither Agree nor Disagree, 4) Agree, 5) Strongly Agree.
