The purpose of this correlational study was to measure structural obstacles to a free prostate cancer screening. The sample consisted of 549 men, 69% who were African-American. The men attended a prostate cancer educational program and were offered free prostate cancer screening at their physician of choice. Structural obstacles that were predictors in screening participation were "making an appointment" (p = 0.02), "planning for an appointment" (p = 0.05), and "reminders of prostate cancer screening" (p = 0.02). The demographic variables of race and marital status were also predictors of screening participation. Implications for health education are given.
