Social Media Perceptions Among Young Adults With Cancer - Aim 1: Interviews
This study used one-on-one interviews to understand young adults' with cancer positive and negative in-person social interactions and thoughts about social media messages that encourage in-person interactions with people they barely know. Young adults with cancer (ages 22-39) shared their reactions to mock social media posts and images and described recent in-person interactions with strangers and acquaintances to inform the design of intervention messages, personal stories, and behavioral tips.

Detaillierte Beschreibung
Participants completed a single, 60-minute semi-structured interview on Zoom following a standardized guide in three parts: 1) sharing a recent positive experience; 2) describing recent in-person interactions with acquaintances and with strangers, including emotional responses, comfort, and experiences discussing their cancer; and 3) reviewing and giving feedback on three image sets (peers experiencing loneliness, peers experiencing connectedness, and spaces where connection could occur) and two mock intervention messages shown as social media posts with a personal story, intervention text, and behavioral tips.

Themes in Reactions to Mock Intervention Messages and Images (Semi-Structured Interview Guide; Thematic Analysis)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, During a single 60-minute interview
|
Using a standardized semi-structured interview guide, participants reviewed three image sets (peers experiencing loneliness, peers experiencing connectedness, and spaces where connection could occur) and two mock intervention messages formatted as social media posts. Participants described what they liked most and least, what caught their attention, whether the images and posts conveyed their intended meaning, and whether the posts might motivate in-person interactions. Interviews were audio-recorded and professionally transcribed. Two coders independently coded each transcript using a thematic analysis framework with an a priori codebook (refined after initial coding), and disagreements were resolved by consensus. |

Themes in In-Person Interactions With Strangers and Acquaintances (Semi-Structured Interview Guide; Thematic Analysis)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, During a single 60-minute interview
|
Using a standardized semi-structured interview guide, participants described recent in-person interactions with acquaintances and with strangers (asked separately), including where the interaction occurred, how it made them feel, situations that made them comfortable, and experiences discussing their cancer. Transcripts were coded for positive and negative social interactions using the same thematic analysis approach. Themes were used to inform intervention message themes, personal stories, and behavioral tips. |
