Interventions
Testimonial videos will be played including those that describe the testing experience and their motivations for testing. This approach combines self-affirmation with misinformation correction to take advantage of the ability to promote adaptive COVID-19 prevention behaviors. The self-affirmation activity will always precede the presentation of the testimonial videos as leading with misinformation correction can be construed by some as a threat to one's self-adequacy.
This is a Type I network intervention that includes specific training on mobilization of network members. Training occurs in a group-based setting of 8-10 enrolled participants facilitated by a community facilitator and Motivational Interviewing trained interventionist. At 30 days, a 15-20-minute phone booster communication session reinforces the intervention content
