Summary

The primary aim of this project is to examine the association between having a long-term condition (morbidity) and screening uptake for colorectal cancer. Whilst this project will consider all morbidity and co-morbidities, there will be a particular focus on common mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety.

The secondary aim of this project is to examine other factors that may influence uptake rate. Information on a wide array of potential factors is available for this project. These include demographics (age, gender, ethnicity), socio-economic status (deprivation, education status) and lifestyle (smoking status, drinking patterns, degree of exercise). In addition, any potential moderating effect of these factors on the association between morbidity and screening uptake shall be explored.

In summary, the following shall be explored:

* Uptake rates by type of mental health disorder.
* Uptake rates by chronic physical health problems.
* Associations between uptake, morbidity (both physical and mental) and broader health determinants such as demographics, socio-economic status and lifestyle.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Exposure to having a long-term condition.

Long-term conditions are self-reported: twelve named conditions are recorded, along with an "other" condition - these shall all be considered with the exception of the named condition "cancer".
