dc.description.abstract | Latina women at risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) have lower awareness,
knowledge, and use of genetic counseling and testing services (GCT) than non-Latina Whites.
Few interventions have been developed to reduce these disparities among at-risk Latinas. This pilot
study assessed the impact of a culturally targeted narrative video developed by our team. The study
included 40 Latina immigrants living in the United States who were at risk of HBOC, including a ected
and una ected women. We assessed pre-post di erences in psychosocial outcomes. Participants were
47.35 years old on average (SD = 9.48). Most (70%) were una ected with cancer, had an annual income
of $40,000 or less (65%), an education of High School or less (62.5%), and were uninsured (77.5%).
The video significantly enhanced knowledge (p < 0.001), positive attitudes (p < 0.05), anticipatory
positive emotions (p < 0.05), and intentions to participate in counseling (p < 0.001). Importantly, the
video also significantly reduced negative attitudes (p < 0.05), and attitudinal ambivalence (p < 0.001).
The culturally targeted video shows preliminary evidence in improving psychosocial outcomes related
to GCT uptake in Latinas at risk for HBOC. This intervention is a promising easily-disseminable strategy to address disparities in GCT utilization | en_US |
