About this study
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if culturally targeted messaging about the human papillomavirus (HPV) increases receptivity to the HPV vaccine among African American parents of vaccine-eligible daughters. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does culturally targeted messaging increase African American parents' intentions to vaccinate their daughter against HPV? Research will compare culturally targeted messaging to general, educational messaging and no messaging. Participants will: * View culturally targeted messages, education-only messages, or no messages about the HPV vaccine * Report their intentions to vaccinate their daughter against HPV * Report whether they have initiated HPV vaccination for their daughter six months later
