Summary

This study tests whether a specially designed video can help people who tend to avoid information about colorectal cancer become more willing to learn about screening. About 1,500 adults aged 45 to 75 who are not up-to-date on screening will watch either the intervention video or a control video. Researchers will then measure their intention to get screened and actual screening behavior after 9 months.
