U.S. Vietnamese Parents' Perceptions of Different Approaches for Confirming Adolescent HPV Vaccination Records in Research Studies
BACKGROUND: The United States (U.S.) Vietnamese communities face a high burden of HPV-related cancer rates; they also have low HPV vaccination coverage. HPV vaccination is a safe, effective tool to prevent HPV-related cancers, particularly when administered during adolescence. Understanding Vietnamese parents' perspectives on the acceptability of different HPV vaccination status verification methods can improve the implementation of community-bas…
Historical Bias in Mortgage Lending, Redlining, and Implications for the Uncertain Geographic Context Problem
Harmonizing Qualitative Data Across Multiple Health Systems to Identify Quality Improvement Interventions
Background: Heterogeneity in healthcare systems' organizational structures, policies and decisions influences practice implementation and care delivery. While quantitative data harmonization has been used to compare outcomes, few have conducted cross-site qualitative inquiry of healthcare delivery; thus, little is known about how to harmonize qualitative data across multiple settings. Objective: We illustrate a methodological approach for a theor…
Anal cancer screening among women with HIV
Women living with HIV (WLWH) are at increased risk of anal cancer compared to women without HIV, often due to persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infections. This paper describes current practices and challenges conducting anal cancer screening for WLWH at an urban integrated safety-net system and a non-profit community-based HIV clinic. We conducted 25 semi-structured interviews with clinical and administrative stakeholders to assess knowledge…
Do traditional economic theories of free riding behavior explain spatial clustering of HPV vaccine uptake
Individuals were more likely to complete the HPV vaccination series when others in their neighborhood had already completed the series. We do not find evidence for free riding in HPV vaccination decisions
Hispanic and Immigrant Paradoxes in U.S. Breast Cancer Mortality
To test the Hispanic and Immigrant Paradoxes-i.e., survival advantages despite a worse risk factor profile-and the modifying role of neighborhood context, we examined associations between patient ethnicity, birthplace, neighborhood Hispanic density and neighborhood poverty among 166,254 female breast cancer patients diagnosed 1995-2009 in Texas, U.S. Of all, 79.9% were non-Hispanic White, 15.8% Hispanic U.S.-born, and 4.2% Hispanic foreign-born. …
Validity of Single-Item Screening for Limited Health Literacy in English and Spanish Speakers
Objectives. To evaluate 3 single-item screening measures for limited health literacy in a community-based population of English and Spanish speakers. Methods. We recruited 324 English and 314 Spanish speakers from a community research registry in Dallas, Texas, enrolled between 2009 and 2012. We used 3 screening measures: (1) How would you rate your ability to read?; (2) How confident are you filling out medical forms by yourself?; and (3) How of…

Human Papillomavirus Vaccine Coverage Among Females Aged 11 to 17 in Texas Counties
Effects of Socioeconomic Status and Health Care Access on Low Levels of Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Among Spanish-Speaking Hispanics in California
Little is known about the effect of language preference, socioeconomic status, and health care access on human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination. We examined these factors in Hispanic parents of daughters aged 11 to 17 years in California (n = 1090). Spanish-speaking parents were less likely to have their daughters vaccinated than were English speakers (odds ratio [OR] = 0.55; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.31, 0.98). Adding income and access to…
Understanding how mothers of adolescent girls obtain information about the human papillomavirus vaccine
We examined factors associated with information seeking about the human papillomavirus vaccine among mothers of adolescent girls by testing whether information seeking and vaccination intentions for their daughters are associated with perceived vulnerability, severity, and vaccine benefits in an ethnically diverse sample. Mothers ( N = 256) of unvaccinated girls living in Dallas, Texas, were surveyed (49% Black, 29% Hispanic, and 18% White). Perc…
Too Much of a Good Thing? Physician Practices and Patient Willingness for Less Frequent Pap Test Screening Intervals
BACKGROUND: Recent guidelines recommend longer Pap test intervals. However, physicians and patients may not be adopting these recommendations. OBJECTIVES: Identify (1) physician and practice characteristics associated with recommending a less frequent interval, and (2) characteristics associated with women's willingness to adhere to a 3-year interval. RESEARCH DESIGN: We used 2 national surveys: (1) a 2006/2007 National Survey of Primary Care Phy…
Construct Validity of a Mammography Processes of Change Scale and Invariance by Stage of Change
The development and use of validated processes of change (POC) measures have received little attention in the literature despite their importance in the Transtheoretical Model. Using survey data ( N = 2909), we examined the construct validity of a 22-item mammography POC scale by testing for factorial validity and factorial invariance across stage of change. We also used MANOVA with Tukey post-hoc tests to confirm stage differences in POC use (co…
