Despite over 15 years of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination implementation, uptake remains below national targets. Black/African American adolescents are less likely to complete the HPV vaccine series, due to a myriad of multilevel factors including vaccine hesitancy. The objective of this study was to develop a tailored mHealth intervention to promote vaccine confidence among Black families with adolescents. We generated a message bank from …
Chronic health conditions and adolescents’ social connectedness
This study investigated associations between chronic developmental/behavioral and physical health conditions and social connectedness of adolescents using rich population-based data from a national U.S. birth cohort study. Potentially disabling health conditions were reported by caregivers and categorized by our team as developmental/behavioral or physical. Social connectedness was assessed using a validated scale that measured adolescents' repor…

Community- Versus Health Care Organization–Based Approaches to Expanding At-Home Covid-19 Testing in Black and Latino Communities, New Jersey, 2021
At-home COVID-19 testing offers convenience and safety advantages. We evaluated at-home testing in Black and Latino communities through an intervention comparing community-based organization (CBO) and health care organization (HCO) outreach. From May through December 2021, 1100 participants were recruited, 94% through CBOs. The odds of COVID-19 test requests and completions were significantly higher in the HCO arm. The results showed disparities …
Engaging a Community Leader to Enhance Preparation for In-Depth Interviews With Community Members
In-depth interviews allow for rich exploration of stakeholders' experiences. Preparation for in-depth interviews generally consists of literature reviews and researchers' review of their own culture and understanding of a topic. We supplemented these strategies with serial "ethnographic interviews" with a single community leader to enhance our preparation for community-based in-depth interviews with Latina, immigrant, Spanish-speaking mothers and…
Infant Health and Future Childhood Adversity
Adverse Experiences in Early Childhood and Kindergarten Outcomes
OBJECTIVE: To examine associations between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in early childhood and teacher-reported academic and behavioral problems in kindergarten. METHODS: We conducted a secondary analysis of data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study, a national urban birth cohort. Subjects with primary caregiver-reported information on ACE exposures ascertained at 5 years and teacher-reported outcomes at the end of the chil…
