Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

oral cancer communication tool

The overall goal is to determine if the OPC communication tool has potential to enhance Black-men's and dentists' comfort discussing oral and pharyngeal cancers in clinical-like settings. Each Aim builds upon activities from the previous Aim. Aim 1a and Aim1b activities will produce a culturally- aligned oral-pharyngeal cancer communication (COPC) tool that will be used in Aim 2. In Aim 2 activities, dental providers will receive training on the tool and practice utilization of the tool. The tool will be further revised using the additional feedback from Aim 2 activities. In Aim 3, the revised culturally- aligned COPC tool will be utilized in community-based settings. In this IRB amendment-modification, we are seeking approval for Phase III/ Aim 3 activities.
