Hispanic Health Care International : the Official Journal of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses 2017 September
INTRODUCTION: The study hypothesized that sociocultural factors would be associated with breast cancer screening within the past 2 years among Latina immigrant women.
METHOD: This study employed a survey design and included 82 Latina immigrant female participants 40 to 64 years of age for the analysis. Two multivariable binary logistic regression models were estimated, one for the sociocultural deterrents and the other for the symptomatic deterrents from the Cultural Cancer Screening Scale.
RESULTS: The results indicated two constructs of the Cultural Cancer Screening Scale, sociocultural deterrents (odds ratio = 2.00; 95% confidence interval = 1.04-3.86) and symptomatic deterrents (odds ratio = 1.65; 95% confidence interval = 1.08-2.54), were associated with screening in the past 2 years, when adjusting for sociodemographic and health-related characteristics.
CONCLUSION: These findings provide evidence for the importance of sociocultural factors in Latina immigrant women's timely mammography screening.
