Summary

This proposed study aims to conduct timely research that promotes vaccine confidence and vaccination of one strongly recommended vaccine with suboptimal uptake rates: Human papillomavirus (HPV) in vulnerable and underserved youth aged 11-14.

Detailed Description

The study objectives are: Objective 1: Assess feasibility (participation rate, retention, involvement, satisfaction) of one game-based interventions targeting HPV vaccination. Objective 2: Conduct a pilot RCT with three conditions (Arm 1: HPV game-based intervention; Arm 2: usual care). The investigators will explore patterns of pre- to post-intervention change in theoretical mediators and vaccine intent, and explore levels of vaccine intent and uptake in 90 parent-child dyads of unvaccinated youth aged 11-14.
