•Brief Description of Program
•Evaluation

STUDY SETTING
• The study sites are colonias along the Texas-Mexico border: the
formative work was conducted in El Paso County, (El Paso), Cameron
County (Brownsville), and Webb County (Laredo); the intervention
trial will be carried out in the LRGV.
• Colonias are unincorporated, un-zoned, semi-rural communities often
without access to public drinking water or wastewater systems.
• Individuals living in colonias have high rates of poverty,
unemployment, and low education levels.

12 Focus Groups: 5 with men, 6 with women, 1 with promotoras
Colonias of the El Paso, Laredo, & Brownsville regions
Interview guide question categories- Knowledge, Experience, CRCS behavior
Eligibility: Hispanic/Latino, 50+, No prior/current cancer diagnosis
Recruitment: Flyers, Word of mouth, Local colonia churches, Promotoras
Audio-taped sessions were transcribed, translated, and back-translated

• The survey was conducted in Spanish included items assessing:
demographics, colorectal cancer screening behaviors, Knowledge,
Perceived Susceptibility/Risk, Intentions, Self Efficacy, Decisional

INTERVENTION DEVELOPMENT
Target
Tailored
•
Intended to reach a specific
population sub-group which is
homogeneous in some
particular way.
•
Intended to reach one specific
individual
•
Doesn’t distinguish between
members of the sub-group
•
Based on characteristics unique to
that person
•
Cannot address variations
between individuals
•
Takes into account the needs and
interests of each person
•
Not Individualized
•
Based on individual assessment
16
Tailored Interactive Multimedia Intervention
Why TIMI ?
• Engages user in active learning
• Individualized, user his/her own pace
• Audio and Video facilitate learning in low literacy populations
• Little training required
• Reduces promotora burden
• Easy to Disseminate

Tailored Interactive Multimedia Intervention
Intervention with moving video (novela type story and testimonials),
audio, graphics, animation, stills, and interactive educational segments.
Targeted for:
• Hispanics
• Low literacy level
• Low education
Tailored to:
• Gender
• Language preference
•Awareness of CRCS
• Individual Stage of Change
• Attitudes about screening
•Knowledge
• Specific barriers
Interactive:
• Allows participants to choose topics of interest
• Allows participant to follow own learning pace
• Gives individualized feedback
• Provides decision support

Study Design
Colorectal Cancer Screening Among Hispanic Women Living in the
Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas
To increase comparability of
study groups, we will use
MAUM to assign a score for
each site on a single
composite blocking factor.
This blocking factor will be
used to take into account
colonia age and size.
Randomize 24 Colonias
