This study is about home air radon testing and has two phases.
The goal of the first phase is to learn about renters' and homeowners' views and plans related to radon testing. The main question this phase aims to answer is:
1. Does taking part in a focus group with information about radon testing change people's plans to test for radon?
Participants in the first study phase will:
The second phase is a pilot interventional study. The goal is to test interventions about radon testing with renters and homeowners who smoke and do not smoke. The main questions this phase aims to answer are:
Participants in this second phase will:
Some participants will receive reminder messages for 2 months after viewing the intervention.
Researchers will compare an online intervention they developed about radon testing to: a) a standard public health infographic and b) their online intervention combined with reminder messages about radon testing. They will compare the interventions by proportion of participants who: a) request a free radon test kit from their State Radon Programs, b) set-up the radon test kit in their homes, and c) complete radon testing.
This study is a pilot research study.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public health infographic (AIM 3) | Active Comparator | Participants will view a standard public health infographic about home air radon testing and will receive information about requesting a free home air radon test kit from their state radon program. |
|
| Online health promotion intervention tailored by smoking status (AIM 3) | Experimental | Participants will view an online health promotion intervention about home air radon testing, with messaging tailored based on whether the participant smokes or does not smoke. Participants will also receive information about requesting a free home air radon test kit from their state radon program. |
|
| Online health promotion intervention tailored by smoking status, plus reminder messages (AIM 3) | Experimental | Participants will view an online health promotion intervention about home air radon testing, with messaging tailored based on whether the participant smokes or does not smoke. Participants will also receive information about requesting a free home air radon test kit from their state radon program, as well as reminder messages about radon testing for about two months after initially viewing the online intervention component. |
|
| Focus group with educational overview (AIM 1) | Experimental | Participants will participate in a focus group discussion about radon testing and will receive a brief educational overview about radon testing. |

| Number of participants enrolled in the study (AIM 3) | Number of participants who consent into the study and meet eligibility criteria within 3 months of study opening to enrollment. | 3 months |
| Proportion of study participants who complete all study surveys (AIM 3) | Proportion of study participants who complete all study-related surveys, including the pre-intervention survey, post-intervention survey, and follow-up survey at 2 months post-intervention. | 2 months |
| Proportion of participants who request a home radon test kit at 18 months (AIM 3) | Proportion of participants, by study arm, who request a free home radon test kit from the New Hampshire Radon Program or Vermont Radon Program in the 18 months following the intervention, the New Hampshire Radon Program or Vermont Radon Program, as reported by the state radon programs; radon test kits are attributed to participants if the state radon program records match the participant's name and/or address of home residence. | 18 months |
| Proportion of participants who request a home radon test kit at 2 months (AIM 3) | Proportion of participants, by study arm, who request a free home radon test kit from the New Hampshire Radon Program or Vermont Radon Program in the 18 months following the intervention, the New Hampshire Radon Program or Vermont Radon Program, as reported by the state radon programs; radon test kits are attributed to participants if the state radon program records match the participant's name and/or address of home residence. | 2 months |
| Proportion of participants who set-up a home radon test kit in their home (AIM 3) | Proportion of participants, by study arm, who report setting up the a home radon test kit in their home at two months post-intervention. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in participants' intentions to test the air in their homes for radon in the next 12 months (AIM 1) | Intention to test will be measured on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 indicating they definitely will not test their home air for radon and 10 indicating they definitely will test their home air for radon in the next 12 months. | Baseline (pre-test, approximately 1-4 weeks before intervention), immediately after the intervention (post-test) |
