Individual- and provider-level factors associated with colorectal cancer screening in accordance with guideline recommendation
The level of risk-appropriate screening varied across populations groups. Interventions that target population groups less likely to engage in CRC screening are pivotal for decreasing screening inequalities
Effectiveness of two direct-mail strategies to encourage women to have cervical (Pap) smears
The aim of this study was to assess the acceptability, utilisazion and differential effectiveness of two direct-mail strategies for increasing community Papanicolaou (Pap) smear rates. The two strategies were: a personally addressed letter containing simple information about Pap smears and a personally addressed letter combined with a series of targeted behavioural prompts designed to address a number of aspects of screening which previous resear…
Preventing accidental injury to young children in the home using volunteers
Accidental injury in the home is a major cause of death and ill-health among young children. Reducing home safety hazards by the use of safety devices such as stair barriers and safety taps has the potential to prevent home injuries.

The Safe Place Project examined parents' knowledge of home safety and the prevalence of safety hazards in homes where…

The mass media are increasingly popular as a strategy for delivering preventive health messages. A review of the literature located 24 published evaluations of the effectiveness of mass media programmes in modifying cardiovascular risk behaviour or safety restraint use among adults. Many of these studies failed to meet basic methodological criteria and were excluded from the review. The remaining studies were found to provide little support for t…

A group of teachers was asked to rate a number of videotaped samples of these two behavior categories. The MDS technique was used to construct the psychological maps or structures that the teachers used when making judgments about the behaviors. The s…
