Detailed Description:
The investigators propose a randomized controlled trial to assess baseline maternal knowledge of and attitudes toward commercial prenatal genetic testing laboratories' genetic privacy practices, and to determine whether a brief educational intervention alters these attitudes. Pregnant women undergoing specialized fetal anatomic ultrasound surveys at Women and Infants' maternal fetal medicine prenatal diagnostic imaging centers will be recruited to participate. Volunteers will be randomized to receive either standard education about prenatal genetic testing or standard education plus additional education about federal genetic privacy protections. Next, the participants view the educational materials to which they were randomized. Finally, all volunteers will take the same survey, which will assess baseline demographic variables as well as their knowledge of and attitudes toward broad sharing of data obtained from prenatal genetic testing. Once finished with the survey, volunteers will have completed their participation in this study.
