Perception of stress/depression, breast cancer, and cardiovascular disease as the main health problem for women, by education level.

Three education levels were defined: low (primary school or less; 0–8 years), middle (complete or incomplete secondary education; 9–12 years), and high (complete or incomplete university or technical studies; >12 years).

* p < 0.01 high vs middle and low education levels.
