Table 3.

One-way MANOVA—subscales measuring attitudes toward genetic testing by triad membership.

Triad Subscales
Benefits Awareness Outcomes
M SD M SD M SD
Grandmother 1.50 0.51 1.18 0.44 2.20 0.56
Mother 1.33 0.44 1.17 0.40 2.14 0.50
Granddaughter 1.38 0.46 1.35 0.71 2.16 0.62

MANOVA F ratio: F [6,316] = 1.55, P = 0.162, d = 0.03 (based on Wilk's lambda).

Between subjects: benefits: F [2,160] = 1.86, P = 0.159, d = 0.02.

Awareness F [2,160] = 1.96, P = 0.145, d = 0.02.

Outcomes F [2,160] = 0.19, P = 0.830, d =< 0.01.

Note: Lower scores indicate more positive perceptions of attitudes toward genetic testing.

Twenty granddaughters were less than 12 years of age and did not complete the attitudes toward genetic testing survey.
