About this study
Official title: BRAVE: Behavior and Risk Awareness Through Video Education for Firefighters
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of short documentary-style videos to educate and inspire firefighters to take safety measures to prevent cancer incidence and mortality.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Will firefighters will have a higher perceived susceptibility to cancer, lower perceived barriers to cancer risk reduction practices, and higher perceived self-efficacy and benefit to risk reduction practices after watching the videos?
Participants will:
- Take a Pre-Intervention survey
- Watch one of five randomly assigned 5 minute video interventions
- Take a Post-Intervention survey
- Conditions
- Cancer Prevention, Firefighters
- Being tested
- Video 1, Video 2, Video 3, Video 4, Video 5
