Abstract
Nearly 6 in 10 people do not accept their invitation to participate in the new Bowel Scope (Flexible Sigmoidoscopy) Screening programme (BSSP). In this study we investigate predictors of screening knowledge in previous BSS invitees. Method: Individuals invited to attend BSS between March 2013 and February 2015 were identified through GP records (n = 3227) and sent a questionnaire assessing screening knowledge (9 item scale), engagement with information and attendance. Multivariate regression was used to identify predictors of knowledge. Findings: 1477 (45.8%) completed questionnaires were returned. Of the 1366 (92.5%) suitable for analysis, the majority were female (52.6%), married or cohabiting (78.8%), White (91.7%), fell within the least deprived SES group (77.0%) and had read the delivered information about BSS (87.3%) and attended their appointment (80.8%). Knowledge scores were generally low (m = 5.08; range = 0-9), but lower among non-attenders (4.45) than attenders (5.23; p =
