Genetic Testing in the Latinx community: Impact of acculturation and provider relationships.

Objectives: The current study aimed to explore attitudes toward genetic germline testing and intentions to test in Latinas from Southern California. We hypothesized that patients' acculturation and education levels, as well as comfort with health care providers, are positively associated with attitudes and intentions toward genetic testing.

Methods: A survey was offered concurrently to Latinx female patients at a gynecologic oncology practice and to unaffiliated Latinx community members.
