The impact of car ownership and public transport usage on cancer screening coverage: Empirical evidence using a spatial analysis in England

Author

  • Wang, Chao

Abstract

A spatial analysis has been conducted in England, with the aim to examine the impact of car ownership and public transport usage on breast and cervical cancer screening coverage. District-level cancer screening coverage data (in proportions) and UK census data have been collected and linked. Their effects on cancer screening coverage were modelled by using both non-spatial and spatial models to control for spatial correlation.
