Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This clinical trial studies how well educational intervention works in improving knowledge and screening rates of colorectal cancer. An educational intervention, such as viewing an inflatable colon, PowerPoint presentation, or flip books/flipcharts, may help improve knowledge about colorectal cancer and how often people get checked for colorectal cancers.

- Screening (educational intervention)
- description
- Participants attend educational sessions comprising of an inflatable colon interactive exhibit that allows visitors to walk through a colon while seeing images, a PowerPoint presentation that contains messages that are tailored to meet the cultural and linguistic needs of Black/African Americans, Appalachians, and Hispanics/Latinos, and or flip books/flip charts. Participants also receive a copy of the study information sheet which contains the basic elements of informed consent and a pre-education session knowledge survey.

Primary outcomes (6)
- measure
- Change in knowledge and degree to which reported intentions regarding colorectal cancer screening are related to the educational session
- timeFrame
- Up to two years
- description
- Change in knowledge will be examined as a function of the important covariates: race/ethnicity, sex, age, education and primary language. A paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test will be used to determine whether there is a statistically significant difference in pre and post session scores. The paired t-test provides a hypothesis test to determine whether pre and post session assessment mean scores differ from each other in a significant way under the assumptions that the paired differences are independent and identically normally distributed. The test statistic is t with n-1 degrees of f
