Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Mammography screening behavior | Mammography screening behavior will be measured using two self-reported items: 1) history of ever having a mammogram, with a yes/no response and 2) history of last (most recent) mammogram with the following response options: within the past year; at least 1, but less than 2 years ago; at least 2, but less than 5 years ago; 5 or more years ago; don't remember. Using these two items, a new variable of mammography screening behavior will be created, defined as the number of prior mammograms, categorizing responses as 0, 1 to 2, and 2+. | Baseline (at enrollment) |
