ABSTRACT

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death among women of all ethnicities. Women of Hispanic descent in particular have traditionally exhibited higher mortality rates due to breast cancer as compared to non-Hispanic whites, despite holding lower rates of occurrence. Th is study seeks to examine mammography utilization among Hispanic women residing in the impoverished Colonias of Maverick and Val Verde counties located in south Texas. Using a multistage systematic sampling approach, we interviewed 1849 women from those colonias. Logistic Regression was used to examine the perceived cost benefi trelationship and its effects on mammography utilization. Results indicate that perceived benefits to mammography are signifi cant in promoting mammography utilization. In addition, perceived costs were also signifi cant in influencing mammography engagement. Knowledge and Insurance status remained a constant motivator to screening.
