Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Proportion of participants reporting the health behavior of interest (depending on which intervention component(s) were selected)
For smoking cessation: Self-reported smoking status. For cancer screenings: Self-reported receipt of cervical, breast, and/or colorectal cancer screening. This assessment occurs after the Early Treatment group has completed the intervention.
Assessed approximately 4 months after baseline
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Change in stage of readiness to change the selected health behavior(s) from baseline
Assessed approximately 4 months after baseline
Number of visits completed
Approximately 4 months after baseline
Retention (i.e., number of participants who complete all planned assessment timepoints)
Approximately one year after baseline
Study Arms (2)
Early Intervention
EXPERIMENTALParticipants in this group are nested in churches which were randomly assigned to the treatment group.
Delayed Intervention
NO INTERVENTIONParticipants in this group are nested in churches which were randomly assigned to the wait-list control group. They receive an educational luncheon focused on stress reduction during the intervention window for the Early Intervention group, and subsequently receive the intervention(s) for their selected target health behaviors at a later date.
Interventions
For smoking cessation: Cooper-Clayton group sessions plus motivational interviewing, both delivered by local lay health advisor. For all cancer screenings: lay health advisor home visits incorporating motivational interviewing and focused on decreasing participant-identified barriers to screening.
