Purpose
The objectives are: 1) to adapt existing key English-language IP measures for use in assessing how LEP Latino patients perceive and process information presented in a Spanish CRC screening decision aid (DA); and 2) to determine the relationship between key IP domains and the ability to state preferences regarding CRC screening, intentions to discuss with a clinician and screen for CRC.
Findings from this study will provide data that will guide the refinement of our new DA, provide insight into how information in the Spanish-language DA is processed, and enhance our understanding regarding the relationship between IP domains and intentions to engage in informed decision making.
