Table 4.

Interest in genetic risk disclosure of dementia in three hypothetical risk scenarios (10, 30, or 50% risk of dementia at the age of 85)

10% scenario (n = 423) 30% scenario (n = 416) 50% scenario (n = 417)
Interested 308 (73%) 321 (77%) 330 (79%)
Undecided 63 (15%) 61 (15%) 58 (14%)
Not interested 52 (12%) 34 (8%) 29 (7%)

Results are presented in number of participants (% of total valid); 10% scenario, missing n = 19; 30% scenario, missing n = 26; 50% scenario, missing n =25. Hypothetical risk scenarios 10%, 30%, and 50% presented in random order to all participants. For analysis, not interested and undecided were merged. Post hoc McNemar test showed a difference after Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons (p < 0.01) between scenarios: interest in the 50% scenario was higher compared to 10% risk scenario
