Frequently Asked Questions

What will participants be asked to do?

Once you complete the Baseline Survey, you will be directed to the online STAND-T platform. STAND-T provides evidence-based materials and resources for men with prostate cancer. Your survey responses will give you access to electronic tools (e-tools) developed for modifiable behaviors. You will be able to refer to these e-tools at any time throughout the duration of the research study.

You will complete a short Satisfaction Survey after 1 week, and a Follow-up Survey at the end of the 3-month period.

In addition, you will be enrolled in an interactive 3-month text messaging intervention and receive text messages that contain motivational messages, prompts, and healthy lifestyle tips and recommendations.

Will participants be paid?

There is no compensation for this study.
