The group-by-time interaction was not statistically significant for any of the models. Reference categories for the following variables is denoted by*: *Group 0 = FH (family history); Group 1 = PS (population screening); *Occasion 1 = baseline; Occasion 2 = time point 2 (7 days post test result); Occasion 3 = time point 3 (three months post test result); Sex 0 = female; Sex 1 = male; *FH 0 = low risk; FH 1 = high risk. *Marital Status 0 = live alone, ie, single/divorced/widowed; marital Status 1 = live with partner, ie, married/cohabiting. Income as “continuous variable,” but measured in £10 000 increments. Age in years (continuous variable). Coef = coefficient; Err = error; FH = family history; Group#Occasion = group-by-time interaction effect; HADS = Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale; PS = population screening; SF12 PCS = SF12 quality-of-life physical component scale; SF12 MCS = SF12 quality-of-life mental component scale; QoL = quality-of-life; Std = standard.
