A critical incident lens provides a framework for better analyzing and understanding what actually happens during focus group sessions. Using a critical incident approach, we examine our experiences of carrying out focus groups about the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine with vaccine-eligible adolescent…
Different models of HPV vaccine decision-making among adolescent girls, parents, and health-care clinicians in New Mexico
Our findings suggest that factors other than race and ethnicity, such as education, socioeconomic status, and health-care access, play an important role in HPV vaccination decisions. Further research to elucidate the specific informational needs and communication strategies associated with these factors will be needed to enhance vaccine uptake
Negative Affect Predicts Adults’ Ratings of the Current, but Not Childhood, Impact of Adverse Childhood Events
Expressions of Machismo in Colorectal Cancer Screening Among New Mexico Hispanic Subpopulations
Although national colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence rates have steadily decreased, the rate for New Mexico Hispanics has been increasing, and screening rates are low. We conducted an exploratory qualitative study to determine barriers to CRC screening for New Mexico Hispanics. We found that machismo served as a dynamic influence on men's health-seeking behaviors; however, it was conceptualized differently by two distinct Hispanic subpopulations, …
Direct and Indirect Effects of Childhood Adversity on Adult Depression
HPV and Cervical Cancer Testing and Prevention: Knowledge, Beliefs, and Attitudes Among Hispanic Women
Cervical cancer is a preventable disease resulting from infection with high-risk types of sexually transmitted human papillomaviruses (HPVs). Public knowledge of HPVs and their link to cervical cancer is limited. Participation in cervical cancer prevention programs, including Pap and HPV screening and HPV vaccine acceptance, is crucial for limiting the incidence of cervical cancer. Hispanic women suffer the highest cervical cancer incidence rates…
