Just 38.2% of women reported having a mammogram within the last 24 months. Self-efficacy (OR = 5.36, B = 1.68, p < .001), susceptibility (OR = 2.83, B = 1.04, p < .001), motivation (OR = 2.11, B = 0.75, p = .024) and lower perceived barriers (OR = 0.25, B = -1.37, p < .001) were associated with being screened. Neither fatalistic belief nor awareness towards breast cancer was significant.
