Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants have been associated with an increased risk for breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate cancer as well as melanoma. The present research uses the Leventhal's common-sense model of self-regulation (CSM), a theoretical framework highlighting the role of mental representations on responses to a health-threat. We aim at understanding the personal meaning and representation of...
