| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the decision to undergo colorectal cancer screening among low-income Hispanics living along the Texas–Mexico border. Although colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer death among Latinos, most are not getting the recommended colorectal cancer screening (CRCS) tests, and little is known about what types of factors may influence informed decision making for CRCS among Latinos. |
