First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study looked at how women ages 39-49 make decisions about breast cancer screening. Participants read a decision aid explaining the pros and cons of mammograms and then answered surveys about their reactions, knowledge, and screening plans. The goal was to understand what influences their choices, not to test a treatment.
