Recommendation in the breast cancer scenario was best predicted by severity in the case of women, R 2 = 0.14, adjusted R 2 = 0.13; F (1,113) = 19.07, p < 0.001; β = 0.38, p < 0.001, and by posterior probability in men, although the data in this case failed to reach significance, perhaps because of the small sample R 2 = 0.11, adjusted R 2 = 0.07; F (1,26) = 3.24, p = 0.08; β = 0.33, p = 0.08.
