Description
For sample females who have ever had a breast exam, BREXAMTP reports the time period since their last breast exam (e.g., days, weeks, months, or years). BREXAMTP should be used in conjunction with (BXLNO), which reports the corresponding frequency or number of time units since the respondent's last breast exam.
BREXAMTP was first introduced as part of a supplement on cancer control.
