National guidelines recommend regular screening for colorectal cancer (CRC) begin at age 50. Recent research however showed rates rising among adults below the age of 50 despite declining overall rates of CRC. Screening guidelines have not been updated to reflect new findings. Younger individuals may not be aware of their CRC risk and providers may be unaware of the need to screen younger patients. An online survey of individuals between the ages of 24 and 45 was conducted in April and May of 2018 using Amazon© Mechanical Turk. Measures collected included perceived CRC risk and susceptibility, screening knowledge, and understanding of screening results. Analysis I examined these variables by generational cohort. Analysis II randomized part...
