Trial Design
2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Self-Affirmation Implementation Intentions (SAII) intervention (plus Promotores Health Education)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
The SAII is designed to reduce stigma and enhance uptake of health messaging. SAII couples; (a) self-affirming interventions that focus on restoring self-integrity in the face of identity threats, with (b) implementation intention interventions focus on whether realization of goal intentions for health behaviors is facilitated by forming an "implementation intention" that spells out when, where, and how of goal striving in advance.
Group II: Promotores Health Education only conditionActive Control1 Intervention
The Promotores de Salud Health Education intervention includes: (1) a culturally tailored health education to increase knowledge about COVID-19 and the benefits of testing; (2) motivational interviewing (MI) strategies to explore personal, social, and behavioral barriers to testing and to discuss available resources to resolve these barriers; (3) emotional support to address testing-related concerns and anxieties that may dissuade Latinx individuals from getting tested; and (4) service navigation.
When promotores (community health advocates) are on-site at Mexican Consulate events, they will provide information about COVID-19 and preventive behaviors using in-person instruction on effective mask wearing, hand washing, and physical distancing, as well as the importance of repeated testing and vaccines.
