British medical bulletin - 1 Jan 1999

Marteau T M

Abstract excerpt

It is envisaged that genetic information will be used, together with other types of information, to assess individuals' risks of developing a variety of common conditions. Such risk assessments will involve providing probabilistic information partly based upon results of genetic tests in order to facilitate behaviour change without causing excessive anxiety. The behaviours targeted for change are likely to...
