Primary outcomePrimary: Risk Perceptions for Colorectal Cancer — 3.3; 3.6; 3.5 score on a scale

Summary

This study uses the opinions of adults between the ages of 45 and 73 years old to develop and test an interactive nutrition module for use in an existing colorectal cancer screening intervention using virtual human technology. The main questions answered include: * What content do adults want to receive from a web-based interaction about colorectal cancer screening and nutritional risks for colorectal cancer? * Does a brief interaction with a virtual human delivering tailored cancer prevention information impact cancer prevention intentions and attitudes among a national sample of geographically rural U.S. adults? This study will contribute to knowledge of what messages and graphics promote understanding of cancer risk and promote screening with the potential to promote behaviors that reduce cancer risk.
