Public understanding of risks from gene-environment interaction in common diseases: implications for public communications.

Public health genomics - 1 Jan 2011

Condit C M, Shen L

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Public understanding of the relationship between health behaviors and genes is likely to affect the motivational impact of learning information about one's own genes. Extant research has featured difficulty measuring public understandings of this relationship. This essay explores public understanding of the relationship between genes and behavior, especially with regard to the mathematical...
