Bivariate Comparison of determine and decline health insurance variables
| Who was more likely to think that genetic testing would be used in health insurance determinations? (1-7 Likert) M (95% CI) |
Who was more likely to decline hypothetical genetic testing out of concern? (1-7 Likert) M (95% CI) |
