  • Testing feedback and social norms messages to increase participation

    Open Access•Giuseppe Gorini, Elisa Betti et al.•ARTICLE•SSM - Population Health•2026

  • Effectiveness of behavior change techniques to address barriers to follow-up colonoscopy

    Open Access•Robert S Kerrison, Natalie Gil et al.•ARTICLE•Annals of Behavioral Medicine•2025•References: 25

    BACKGROUND: Nonattendance at colonoscopy is associated with reduced colorectal cancer (CRC) survival. PURPOSE: The aim of this research was to quantify barriers to colonoscopy and test the effectiveness of behavior change techniques (BCTs) to address them. METHODS: Two studies were conducted. In the first study, participants were asked to imagine their next CRC screening result was abnormal, and were presented with the standard abnormal result le…

  • Offering disinclined people the choice between different screening appointments

    Sandro Stoffel, Sandro Tiziano Stoffel et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology & Health•2021

    OBJECTIVES: An invitation to cancer screening with a single (fixed) appointment time has been shown to be a more effective way at increasing uptake compared with an invitation with an open (unscheduled) appointment. The present study tested whether offering more than one fixed appointment could further enhance this effect or be detrimental to people's intention. DESIGN: Experimental online hypothetical vignette survey. METHODS: 1,908 respondents …

  • Testing Enhanced Active Choice to Optimize Acceptance and Participation in a Population-Based Colorectal Cancer Screening Program in Malta

    Open Access•Sandro Stoffel, Mariella Bombagi et al.•ARTICLE•Behavioral Medicine•2021

    Opt-out strategies have been shown to improve participation in cancer screening; however, there are ethical concerns regarding the presumed consent. In this study, we tested an alternative opt-in strategy, called: "enhanced active choice," in which the response options summarize the consequences of the decision. The study was conducted as part of the Maltese colorectal cancer screening program, which offers men and women, aged 60-64, a "one-off" …

  • Testing verbal quantifiers for social norms messages in cancer screening

    Open Access•Sandro Stoffel, Sandro T Stoffel et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2019

    Verbal quantifiers can be used to improve the perception of low uptake figures and avoid a demotivating effect

  • Barriers to bowel scope (flexible sigmoidoscopy) screening

    Open Access•Christian Von Wagner, Bernardette Bonello et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2018

    Interventions to improve BSS uptake should be more nuanced and use targeted strategies to address the specific needs of each group
