背景
本研究探讨了年龄差异的乳腺癌知识，态度和早期发现的行为在多种族样本的经济弱势妇女参加乳腺癌教育推广计划。
方法
年龄差异的乳腺癌知识，乳腺癌的风险的看法，乳房X光检查的障碍，建议乳房X光检查的卫生专业人员，健康促进行为，乳房X光检查的使用和意图进行了调查。受试者为139名年龄在30岁或以上的女性，分为三个年龄组：30至39岁，40至49岁和50岁或以上。
结果
年龄在30岁至39岁之间的妇女中，有四分之一的人报告说，她们过去做过乳房X光检查，并打算在明年做。40多岁的人中有50%报告在过去的某个时候使用过乳房X光检查，56%的人打算在未来一年获得它。在50岁或以上的人中，有50%的人报告说他们在过去一年中做过乳房X光检查。40岁以上的女性比30多岁的女性更有可能报告说，她们的医疗保健提供者鼓励她们进行乳房X光检查。在乳腺癌知识或对乳腺癌个人风险的看法方面没有观察到显着的年龄差异。
结论
三个年龄组对乳腺癌个人风险的看法相似，这一事实表明，老年妇女可能没有准确评估其风险，因此可能在低于最佳水平的情况下获得筛查性乳房X光检查。
BACKGROUND
This study examined age differences in breast cancer knowledge, attitudes, and early-detection behaviors in a multi-ethnic sample of economically disadvantaged women participating in a breast-cancer education outreach program.
METHODS
Age differences in breast cancer knowledge, perceptions of risk of breast cancer, barriers to mammography, recommendations of mammography by health professionals, health promotion behaviors, and mammography use and intention were investigated. The subjects were 139 women aged 30 or older who were categorized in one of three age groups: 30 to 39, 40 to 49, and 50 years old or older.
RESULTS
One fourth of the women between the ages of 30 and 39 reported both that they had had mammography in the past and that they intended to have it in the next year. Fifty percent of those in their forties reported mammography use at some time in the past, and 56% intended to obtain it in the coming year. Fifty percent of those 50 or older reported that they had had mammography in the past year. Women aged 40 or older were more likely than those in their thirties to report that their healthcare providers had encouraged them to get mammograms. No significant age differences were observed in breast cancer knowledge or perceptions of personal risk of breast cancer.
CONCLUSION
The fact that the three age groups were similar in their perceptions of personal risk of breast cancer suggests that older women may not be accurately assessing their risk and thus may be obtaining screening mammography at less-than-optimal levels.
