Study Details

The Eat Right, Screen Right Extension program aims to help adult learners manage nutrition risks and screening options for colorectal cancer prevention. Participants navigate through 6 tailored lessons covering user-identified, evidence-based information relevant to reducing colorectal cancer risk. First, participants receive an overview of colorectal cancer screening guidelines (e.g., age, modalities), personalized nutrition risk factors (e.g., how their intake of red meat, processed meat, and alcohol aligns with nutrition guidelines for colorectal cancer prevention), and additional optional colorectal cancer prevention topics via a branched conversational pathway selected by the participant. Subsequently, participants also have the opportunity to access five additional modules, providing more in-depth information. Self-reported outcomes include changes in cancer information overload, dietary intentions, and cancer screening intentions. This is an extension of previously funded pilot study and aims to enhance reach by leveraging the UF/IFAS Extension infrastructure allowing participants to achieve the following goals: (1) demonstrate accurate understanding of the modifiable dietary behavior that decrease colorectal cancer risk, (2) demonstrate understanding of screening guidelines and several ways to screen for colorectal cancer (e.g., home stool tests, colonoscopy, others), (3) develop confidence to obtain colorectal cancer screening and stay up to date with screening based on guidelines, (4) apply behavior change strategies to support cancer prevention behaviors.
