Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST 5sR0x4Ib. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. We evaluated the impact of individualized breast cancet risk counseling on mammography use among women at risk for breast cancer. Methods. Participants (n=508) were randomized to the breast cancer risk counseling intervention or a general health education control intervention, and 85% completed follow-up Results. In multivarinte modeling. a significant group-by education interaction demonstrated that among less-educated participants, breast cancer risk counseling led to reduced mam mography use. There was no intervention effect among the more-educated participants, Conclusions. These results suggest that standard breast cancer risk connseling could have an adverse impact on the health behaviors of less educated women.
