520 $a Problem. The problem of this study was to use the Health Belief Model as the theoretical basis to examine health beliefs and behavior related to screening mammography among Black and White women.
520 $a Procedures. This study is a secondary analysis of data from a study that compared the effects of tailored interventions to increase mammography compliance. Subjects were members of IU Medical Group (IUMG) or outpatients of the General Medicine Clinic of Barnes-Jewish Hospital. A longitudinal quasi-experimental design was used for this study. Women who agreed to participate in the study were randomly assigned to one of three experimental groups or a control group. Each group was given an 82-item telephone survey at Time 1. Members in the three experimental groups were given a tailored intervention to increase mammography compliance. One month after intervention subjects were given an 86-item telephone survey at Time 2 to determine changes in health beliefs and mammography compliance. The hypotheses examined in this study related to differences between Black and White women on various health beliefs, effects of the intervention on health beliefs and mammography compliance, and the utility of the Health Belief Model for understanding mammography compliance among Black and White women. Multivariate statistical techniques were used to test the related hypotheses.
520 $a Findings. A significant difference existed between Black and White women on health beliefs. Black women had higher levels of self-efficacy and fatalism, while White women had higher levels of perceived barriers toward mammography. The intervention was not differentially effective by race in terms of changing health beliefs from Time 1 to Time 2. The Health Belief Model was not significantly different in explaining mammography compliance between Black and White women.
520 $a Conclusions. At the beginning of this study women varied by race on health beliefs. The intervention was, however, not differentially effective by race in altering mammography compliance or health beliefs. The Health Belief Model, while a good starting point, does not appear to explain entirely differences that exist between health beliefs or mammography behavior of Black and White women.
