BACKGROUND: An emerging literature reports that women who reside in
socioeconomically deprived communities are less likely to adhere to mammography
screening. This study explored associations between area-level socioeconomic
measures and mammography screening among a racially and ethnically diverse sample
of women in Texas. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional, multilevel study
linking individual-level data from the 2010 Health of Houston Survey and
contextual data from the U.S. Census. Women ages 40 to 74 years (n = 1,541) were
included in the analyses. We examined tract-level poverty, unemployment,
education, Hispanic and Black composition, female-headed householder families,
and crowding as contextual measures. Using multilevel logistic regression
modeling, we compared most disadvantaged tracts (quartiles 2-4) to the most
advantaged tract (quartile 1). RESULTS: Overall, 64% of the sample was adherent
to mammography screening. Screening rates were lower (p < .05) among Hispanics,
those foreign born, women aged 40 to 49 years, and those with low educational
attainment, unemployed, and without health insurance coverage. Women living in
areas with high levels of poverty (quartile 2 vs. 1: odds ratio [OR], 0.50; 95%
CI, 0.30-0.85), Hispanic composition (quartile 3 vs. 1: OR, 0.54; 95% CI,
0.32-0.90), and crowding (quartile 4 vs. 1: OR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.29-0.96) were
less likely to have up-to-date mammography screening, net of individual-level
factors. CONCLUSION: Our findings highlight the importance of examining
area-level socioeconomic inequalities in mammography screening. The study
represents an advance on previous research because we examined multiple area
measures, controlled for key individual-level covariates, used data aggregated at
the tract level, and accounted for the nested structure of the data.
