Summary

This study looks at why some people avoid information about colorectal cancer and tests a video designed to help them engage with it instead. About 1,500 adults aged 45 to 75 who are not up-to-date on screening will watch either the special video or a neutral one. Researchers will then check if the video increases their intention to get screened and whether they actually follow through.
