Disparities in cancer screening by occupational characteristics
2017, Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :Our findings help identify where workplace-based interventions and health systems interventions are needed. The influence of workplace-based interventions and programs on cancer screening uptake and awareness have been examined in a few studies with mixed findings (Hui et al., 2013; Lipkus et al., 2005; Allen et al., 2001; Myers et al., 1998; Paskett et al., 1999). The use of health risk assessments, including follow-up counseling, which are recommended by the CDC's community guide and the most common workplace wellness program, could be an avenue to implement cancer screening programs (Baicker et al., 2010; Community Preventive Services Task Force, 2007).

2014, American Journal of Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :Self-efficacy included one question for each screening test: Do you think you could complete a colonoscopy/stool blood test? adapted from prior multi-item self-efficacy measures.42,43 Perceived self-efficacy refers to participants’ self-confidence in completing a task.

2010, Social Science and MedicineCitation Excerpt :In the next two segments of the narrative, the character discussed various barriers to screening. Each of the barriers has been shown to be important in colon cancer screening decisions (Lewis & Jensen, 1996; Myers et al., 1998; Walsh & Terdiman, 2003; Wardle et al., 2000). In one segment, the character described his or her most important barrier.
