Race/Ethnicity and the Perception of the Risk of Developing Prostate Cancer
American Journal of Preventive Medicine, 06/22/09

Shavers VL et al. - Despite statistics to the contrary, few African-American men perceived themselves to have a higher-than-average risk of prostate cancer, while a higher percentage of Hispanic men perceived their risk to be higher than that of the average man of the same age. These findings suggest that all men, but particularly African-American and Hispanic men, could benefit from information regarding their specific risk of developing prostate cancer before making a decision about prostate cancer screening.
