简要总结
HPV infections are prominent among college-aged women. Although HPV vaccines decrease women's risk for cervical cancer, vaccination rates remain inadequate. This study explored the utility of an Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills intervention in promoting HPV vaccination knowledge, motivation, and behavioral skills among college aged women.

研究组 & 干预措施
IMB Intervention Group
The IMB group received an HPV Vaccination Information Statement (VIS) often given to individuals prior to vaccination. In addition, they received the following:
- Additional educational content related to HPV, Cervical Cancer, and HPV vaccination,
- Motivational content to help identify and problem-solve benefits and barriers to vaccination,
- Skills-building content, including brief communication skills training and ways to access the vaccine.
干预措施: IMB Intervention Group (Behavioral)
Attention Control Group
The attention control group also received an HPV Vaccination Information Statement (VIS) often given to individuals prior to vaccination. In addition, to maintain consistency with the treatment's presentation format, participants watched a set of short video clips encompassing aspects of women's general and sexual health.
干预措施: Attention Control (Behavioral)
