a

Women who were missing psychosocial outcomes at follow-up were assumed to have no change in their scores from baseline.

b

Mean change in score for intervention group minus mean change in score for control group was estimated using linear mixed-effects models adjusted for the baseline score on the outcome, age, years of education, health insurance status, employment status, level of English proficiency, years of US residence, and family history of breast cancer.
