Investigating The Effects Of Racial Residential Segregation, Area-Level Socioeconomic Status And Physician Composition On Colorectal Cancer Screening, Qin Shen Jan 2016

Investigating The Effects Of Racial Residential Segregation, Area-Level Socioeconomic Status And Physician Composition On Colorectal Cancer Screening, Qin Shen

Theses and Dissertations

Background: The current adherence to colorectal cancer screening (CRCS) guidelines is suboptimal. How neighborhood characteristics, e.g., racial residential segregation (RRS), area-level socioeconomic status (SES) and physician composition, affect CRCS adherence are not fully understood. We assessed associations between facility proximity to RRS areas, area-level SES, physician composition, and CRCS adherence.

Methods: Data sources included 2013 Minnesota Community Measurement, 2009-2013 American Community Survey, 2012 U.S. and 2012-2013 Washington State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data, and 2013-2014 Area Health Resource File. Logistic regressions and weighted multilevel logistic regressions were used to assess the association between facility proximity to RRS areas and …
