Abstract
⺠Women at an increased risk of breast cancer reviewed an individually tailored decision aid about a medication that could reduce their risk. ⺠Anxiety about developing breast cancer was positively associated with behavioral intentions to seek more information about tamoxifen. ⺠Interest in tamoxifen was not based on knowledge of the medication or perceptions of its risks for women with higher anxiety.
