Bolded text denotes associations where p<.05. Italicized text indicates relationships for which odds ratios are in the same direction across all five diseases.
All conceptually consistent demographic and health history variables were included in all models. Shaded areas indicate analyses that were not conducted because the relationships were conceptually inconsistent. Because family history of cancer was significantly associated with multifactorial beliefs about heart disease and hypertension in bivariate analyses, family history was included in those models as a covariate.
