Note. Model 1 included CES-D total score, GAD-7 total score, patient-reported mental illness variables, and adjusted covariates (age, education, race/ethnicity, risk perception, number of relatives with breast cancer, and relatives who ever tested positive for a cancer gene mutation). Model 2 included CES-D total score, GAD-7 total score, patient-reported mental illness variables, and adjusted for covariates (age and education).
