The purpose of this study was to explore the predictive relationships between cultural belief and stage of change and mammography adherence in low-income Midwestern African American urban women (N=321). Secondary analysis of questionnaire data measuring religiosity, racial pride, family collectivism, future and present time orientation, and stage of mammography screening adoption was conducted. Religiosity (OR=1.12; p=.002) and future time orientation (OR=1.12; p=.05) predicted mammography adherence with a positive association, while present time orientation (OR=0.91; p=.05) was significantly negatively associated. Religiosity (OR=1.11; p=.002) and future time orientation (OR=1.12; p=.05) were positive predictions of stage progression, whereas present time orientation (OR=0.90; p=.03) had a significant negative relationship. By identifying cultural variables that are related to mammography adherence in African American women, mammography-promoting interventions can be more effectively tailored.
本研究旨在探讨文化信仰与行为改变阶段之间的预测关系,以及低收入中西部非裔美国城市女性(N = 321)的乳房X光检查依从性。对测量宗教信仰、种族自豪感、家庭集体主义、未来和当下时间取向以及乳房X光检查采用阶段的问卷数据进行了二次分析。宗教信仰(OR = 1.12;p = .002)和未来时间取向(OR = 1.12;p = .05)与乳房X光检查依从性呈正相关,而当下时间取向(OR = 0.91;p = .05)与乳房X光检查依从性呈显著负相关。宗教信仰(OR = 1.11;p = .002)和未来时间取向(OR = 1.12;p = .05)对阶段进展有积极预测作用,而当下时间取向(OR = 0.90;p = .03)与之呈显著负相关。通过识别与非裔美国女性乳房X光检查依从性相关的文化变量,可以更有效地制定促进乳房X光检查的干预措施。
