- Description
- Higher levels of knowledge relating to colorectal cancer (CRC) are positively associated with CRC screening behaviour. However, knowledge of CRC risk factors and screening recommendations is low. The aim of this study was to examine knowledge of CRC risk factors and CRC screening recommendations among general practice patients aged 18–85 years, and the sociodemographic characteristics associated with knowledge.
