description An abstract of a study by Smith-Howell et al exploring the relationships among cancer fatalism, demographic characteristics, colorectal cancer (CRC) knowledge, perceived risk, perceived benefits and barriers to CRC screening among low-income African Americans is presented. This study demonstrated that fatalism is an important factor that is related to other health beliefs that have been found to influence CRC screening behavior. Interventions to promote cancer screening may need to incorporate strategies to overcome cancer fatalism to be effective.
