Journal of American College Health, 66(3), 165-177. http:\/\/doi.org\/10.1080\/07448481.2017.1393822<\/p>\n<h2>Abstract<\/h2>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Objective:\u00a0<\/strong>To determine the feasibility of a mobile health (mHealth), media literacy education program, Media Aware, for improving sexual health outcomes in older adolescent community college students.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Participants:\u00a0<\/strong>184 community college students (ages 18-19) participated in the study from April-December 2015.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Methods:\u00a0<\/strong>Eight community college campuses were randomly assigned to either the intervention or a wait-list control group. Student participants from each campus completed web-based pretest and posttest questionnaires. Intervention group students received Media Aware in between questionnaires.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Results:\u00a0<\/strong>Several intervention effects of the Media Aware program were significant, including reducing older adolescents&#8217; self-reported risky sexual behaviors; positively affecting knowledge, attitudes, normative beliefs, and intentions related to sexual health; and increasing media skepticism. Some gender differences in the findings were revealed.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Conclusions:\u00a0<\/strong>The results from this study suggest that Media Aware is a promising means of delivering comprehensive sexual health education to older adolescents attending community college.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":3493,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[238],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[],"class_list":["post-7130","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-media-aware-young-adults-pub"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/7130","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/avada_portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7130"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/7130\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7137,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/7130\/revisions\/7137"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3493"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7130"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=7130"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_skills","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_skills?post=7130"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/irtinc.us\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tags?post=7130"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
