### Study Findings

This study used a randomized controlled trial involving medically underserved youth ages 11–14. Parents and their children were recruited as dyads from 22 after-school programs and 19 charter schools in the Houston, Texas, area. Dyads were randomly assigned to either an intervention group that received Families Talk Together and HPV vaccination education program (FTT + HPV) or a control group that received a program on strategies to prevent obesity. Parents of youth in both groups received an approximately 45-minute program from student nurses, took the materials home, and were encouraged to use them to talk to their children. This initial treatment was followed by two phone calls at one month and three months post-program to monitor parents' progress and support them with any communication problems. Data from parents and children were collected immediately before the program (baseline), and at one month and six months after study enrollment. The study found at both one month and six

NA = Not available. This means the authors did not report the information in the manuscripts associated with the studies we reviewed.

a This information was not available whenever authors did not report information for the treatment and comparison groups separately on outcome means, standard deviations, and/or sample sizes.

b Authors reported that the program effect (impact) estimate is statistically significant with a p-value of less than 0.05 based on a two-tailed test.

c For some outcomes, having less of that outcome is favorable. In those cases, an effect with a negative sign is favorable to the treatment group (that is, the treatment group had a more favorable outcome than the comparison group, on average).

d An effect meets the review standards for credible evidence whenever it is statistically significant with a p-value of less than 0.05 based on a two-tailed test, includes the appropriate adjustment for clustering (if applicable), and it is not based on an endogenous subgroup.
