520 Screening plays an essential role in reducing colorectal
cancer (CRC) incidence and mortality rates, yet CRC
screening use remains low in Maryland and lower in some
age and racial/ethnic groups with limited resources to
participate in CRC screening programs. The purpose of this
quantitative, cross-sectional study is to investigate
whether age group, sex, race/ethnicity, education level,
income level, health insurance coverage, and access to
health care professional can predict an individual, 50-75
years of age, in Maryland to take action to fully meet the
United States Preventive Services Task Force CRC screening
test recommendation within the recommended time interval.
The health belief model and the fundamental cause theory
provided the framework for this study. Secondary data of
2014, 2016, and 2018, from 3134 respondents in the
Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Systems database, were
analyzed using the Pearson chi-square test of independence
and multiple logistic regression techniques. Stratified
random sampling was used to select cases. The results
revealed statistically significant (p < .05) association
between age, race/ethnicity, education level, access to
health care professional, and CRC screening use. However,
non-significant (p >.05) association was found between
income level, health insurance plan, and CRC screening
use. Age group and race/ethnicity were confounders on the
association, but sex had no effect on the odds ratios. By
identifying the predictors of CRC screening use, findings
from this research could have positive social change and
guide policy decisions by informing public health
practitioners on the design and implementation of tailored
CRC screening programs with modalities that target groups
with lower CRC screening use
