Abstract: HINTS provides NCI with a comprehensive assessment of the American public's current access to, and use of, information about cancer across the cancer care continuum from cancer prevention, early detection, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship. The content of the survey focuses on understanding the degree to which members of the general population understand vital cancer prevention messages. More importantly, this NCI survey couples knowledge-related questions with inquiries into the communication channels through which understanding is being obtained, and assessment of cancer-related behavior. HINTS collects data using a stratified random sample of the non-institutionalized adult population (18+) in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. HINTS 4 methodology will consist of a mail survey conducted in 4 data collection cycles between 2011 and 2014.
