Abstract A42: Breast and cervical cancer screening adherence among Latina women living in South Texas: Results from the Esperanza y Vida (Hope and Life) intervention

Abstract C90: Examining racial and ethnic disparities in HPV awareness and the association of trust in cancer information from physicians among males
Conclusion: In general, men are not receiving the information about the HPV or how it is transmitted. Furthermore, racial/ethnic differences were found in being informed about the HPV vaccine and trust in receiving cancer information from physicians. Findings suggest that men's lack of knowledge about HPV and the lack of trust of cancer information from physicians may be linked to a lack of HPV vaccinations. Future health communications efforts should explore community-based and culturally sensitive methods to disseminate HPV information to men.Note: This abstract was not presented at the conference.Citation Format: Dexter...

Abstract PR2: Examining perceptions about the HPV vaccine by sociodemographic characteristics and factors associated with perceptions: Findings from the 2012 Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS)
Conclusions: Uncertainty about HPV vaccine effectiveness remains high and may be a factor contributing to low uptake and disparities in vaccination. Findings suggest HPV communication and messages need refinement to clearly highlight vaccine efficacy, and targeted strategies may be needed to reach non-Hispanic Blacks and individuals with lower levels of education.This abstract is also presented as Poster A7.Citation Format: Kassandra I.

Outcome Expectancies, Health Information Seeking, and Cancer Beliefs Associated with Multivitamin/Mineral Use in a National Sample, HINTS-FDA 2015
ConclusionsDespite leading health organizations’ discouragement of dietary supplements for cancer prevention, this study found that trust in health organizations and outcome expectancies were associated with multivitamin/mineral use. This divergence presents a need to explore how dietary supplement evidence based recommendations can be translated and disseminated for the public.

Abstract B57: Knowledge and cultural health beliefs of cervical cancer and attitudes and behaviors towards cervical cancer screening among Cambodian American women
Conclusion: The study findings provide insight and understanding of Cambodian American women's knowledge, cultural health beliefs, and attitudes towards cervical cancer and the Pap test. Although the prevalence of the Pap test was surprisingly high, the findings clearly indicated that there was a great deal of misunderstanding about cervical cancer and the Pap test. Our participants were middle-aged Cambodian American women; therefore, the findings may not be applicable to those from different age groups. Future studies are needed to explore other age groups. Moreover, culturally and linguistically appropriate educational ...

Language Sample Analysis in Clinical Practice: Speech-Language Pathologists' Barriers, Facilitators, and Needs
Conclusions A training in performing LSA did not resolve the time investment barrier experienced by SLPs. User-friendly software, developed in codesign with SLPs might provide a solution. For the short-term, shorter samples, preferably from narrative tasks, should be considered.PMID:34694898 | DOI:10.1044/2021_LSHSS-21-00026
