Annette E Maxwell1, Howin Song.   

Abstract

We compare and contrast three surveys that were conducted in the Korean American community in Los Angeles County and discuss the pros and cons of different sampling and survey strategies. We also look at predictors of breast and cervical cancer screening among Korean American women that were found in studies nationwide.
