Article Synopsis
- Self-reported data on breast and cervical cancer screenings can be inaccurate, leading to potential biases in understanding socioeconomic inequalities in participation rates.
- A large survey was analyzed to compare self-reported cancer screenings with administrative records, revealing that while high-socioeconomic women reported higher participation, they also tended to misreport their actual screening status, especially for cervical cancer.
- Overall, the findings suggest that while socioeconomic factors do influence self-reporting accuracy, relying solely on self-reports may lead to an overestimation of inequalities in cervical cancer screening compared to breast cancer screening.
