该研究旨在确定结直肠癌（CRC）特异性情感障碍的机制，包括对发现CRC的恐惧，尴尬和对筛查不适的担忧，以指导旨在CRC二级预防的干预措施的发展。一个模型解释这些情感障碍的开发和测试之间的随机样本305无症状的日裔美国人使用路径分析。该模型表明，情感障碍可以通过增加CRC相关知识来减少，文化适应，社会支持和医生推荐可以增强这一点。干预措施，重点是增加CRC相关的知识，可以减少情感障碍，CRC筛查时，考虑到提高沟通技巧和人际交往。
The study aimed to identify the mechanisms through which colorectal cancer (CRC)-specific affective barriers, including fear of finding CRC, embarrassment, and concerns for screening discomfort, can be reduced to guide the development of interventions aimed at the secondary prevention of CRC. A model explaining these affective barriers was developed and tested among a random sample of 305 asymptomatic Japanese Americans using a path analysis. The model suggested that affective barriers could be reduced by increasing CRC-related knowledge, which could be enhanced by acculturation, social support, and physician recommendation. Interventions that focus on increasing CRC-related knowledge could reduce affective barriers to CRC screening for this population when taking the enhancement of communication skills and interpersonal interactions into account.
