This community-based randomized trial tested the effects of a social support intervention to increase Chamorro, Samoan, and Tongan women's Pap test behavior and social support among their male spouses or significant others in Southern California.
The purpose of this five-year community-based randomized trial was to: 1) examine the Pap test decision making process in Pacific Islander women; 2) assess the role of social support within the decision making process; and 3) develop and test an intervention to increase Pap testing among Pacific Islander women, and support among their male spouses/significant others. The intervention was created utilizing a Multi-Attribute Utility model and social support theory resulting in gender-specific educational workshops consisting of a social support intervention that informed both Pacific Islander women and men about cervical cancer and the importance of Pap testing for Pacific Islander women, and aimed to increase social support among their male spouses/significant others.

| Intervention | Behavioral | The educational session consisted of a one-hour small group discussion (5-10 people). Gender-specific community health educators facilitated sessions for Pacific Islander women and for their spouses/significant others that included an educational video and other materials (brochure, calendar, and resource list). The video emphasized the importance of Pap testing for Pacific Islander women, and showed men supporting their women to get tested. Women's sessions provided basic information on cervical cancer and pap testing, and ended with verbal commitments and target screening dates by women to get screened. The men's education sessions contained similar information, with supplemental information on how to provide support for their wives to get tested and exercises on showing their support. |

After completion of each data collection activity, all program project datasets will be de-identified and then made available for secondary analysis on the California State University, Fullerton, Health Promotion Research Institute website. A consultant, who is experienced in large multi-site controlled trials, will assist with the protocols (in years 2 and 3) required for dataset documentation and distribution. Researchers will be able to access the data, documentation, and surveys by registering on the website, obtaining approval from the Health Promotion Research Institute steering committee, and downloading the files. Care will be taken to ensure that respondents cannot be identified from the information in the public-use dataset. The final dataset will be stripped of identifiers (i.e., individual respondent identifying information, such as names and phone numbers, will be removed) prior to release for sharing.
