Educating Pre/Teens and Their Parents on the Importance of HPV Vaccination

The purpose of this research study is to determine if video-based education will increase HPV
vaccination rates among 11 - 17 year olds.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a common sexually transmitted infection that has the potential
to cause cancer. The vaccine is recommended because it prevents the HPV infections that most
commonly cause cancer. HPV vaccines offer the best protection to girls and boys who receive
the complete, three-vaccine series and have time to develop an immune response before being
exposed to HPV. However, vaccination rates are low compared to other vaccines for teens.

Results from this study will help us learn why participants do or do not get the HPV
vaccination and whether video-based education can help improve vaccination rates
