DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The project addresses an important health need, Sexually Transmitted Diseases and Infections (STTD/I) health education for low-literate migrants, an underserved population with limited access and large barriers to accessing health education materials. The "Talking Fotonovela develops a new media format that adds audio to the fotonovela; a comic book format that has proven effective in providing health information to migrant populations. The product is designed to be used individually by migrants, as well as in group settings with health educators or lay health advisors. The product will be multilingual (Spanish, English and Mixtec). Mixtec is one of many mostly unwritten languages of indigenous Mexican and Central American migrants. The Mixtecs are one of the largest and most organized of the indigenous Mexican groups in the United States. This product will fill a need for clinics and community groups providing STD/I prevention education and migrant health promotion with low-literate groups. To assess the feasibility of the proposed Talking Fotonovela, we will need to answer the following technical questions: 1) what kinds of audio technologies are used by migrant populations? 2) How will the sensitive nature of the topic (STDs) and potential privacy concerns affect the audio component? 3) What is the most appropriate audio technology to use to reach this population with a talking book? 4) What is the best way to make the Talking Fotonovela accessible to indigenous language speakers? To do this, we begin by reviewing existing audio technologies and selecting likely candidates. The next step is to undertake audience research about technology use. Building on this use, the project team will develop an audio product to be combined with an adaptation of an existing CDC sponsored fotonovela that uses evidence-based models from CDC's Division of Effective Behavioral Innovations to promote condom use and risky behavior avoidance. Feedback from additional audience research testing a prototype product for usability and comprehension will be incorporated in the final design. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The research undertaken for this project will address an important health need -- health education materials on STD/I for low literate migrants. The audience research is designed to find innovative ways to bring technology to bear on barriers to communicating health messages to low-literate populations with limited technological experience. The project also addresses issues of providing health education audiovisual materials to groups lacking written language.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目解决了重要的健康需求，即为低文化移民、服务不足的人群提供性传播疾病和感染 (STTD/I) 健康教育，这些人群获得健康教育材料的机会有限且存在巨大障碍。 “Talking Fotonovela”开发了一种新的媒体格式，可以在 fotonovela 中添加音频；这是一种漫画书格式，已被证明可以有效地向移民人口提供健康信息。该产品旨在供移民个人使用，也可以在与健康教育者或非专业健康顾问的团体环境中使用。该产品将提供多语言版本（西班牙语、英语和 Mixtec）。Mixtec 是许多土著语言中大多数不成文的语言之一。 墨西哥和中美洲移民。米斯特克人是美国最大、最有组织的墨西哥土著群体之一。该产品将满足诊所和社区团体向低文化群体提供性病/传染病预防教育和流动人口健康促进的需求。为了评估拟议的 Talking Fotonovela 的可行性，我们需要回答以下技术问题： 1）移民使用哪些类型的音频技术 人口？ 2) 主题（STD）的敏感性质和潜在的隐私问题将如何影响音频组件？ 3) 最适合使用什么音频技术来向这些人群提供有声读物？ 4) 让土著语言使用者能够理解“会说话的 Fotonovela”的最佳方式是什么？为此，我们首先审查现有的音频技术并选择可能的候选技术。下一步是进行有关技术使用的受众研究。建立在 为此，项目团队将开发一种音频产品，与 CDC 赞助的现有 fotonovela 的改编相结合，该 fotonovela 使用 CDC 有效行为创新部门的循证模型来促进安全套的使用和避免危险行为。来自其他受众研究测试原型产品的可用性和理解性的反馈将被纳入最终设计中。 公共健康相关性：该项目进行的研究将解决一个重要的健康需求——针对低文化水平移民的性传播疾病/感染性健康教育材料。受众研究旨在寻找创新方法，利用技术来消除向技术经验有限的低文化人群传播健康信息的障碍。该项目还解决了向缺乏书面语言的群体提供健康教育视听材料的问题。
