Core Tip Participation in cancer screening programmes might cause worries in the population outweighing the benefits of screening. However, the results from studies of psychological harm of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening remain inconsistent. This is the first randomized study to investigate long-term changes in anxiety from before CRC screening, and compare these changes to individuals not invited to screening. Based on sound methodology, our study show that most individuals have no psychological effect of receiving a positive screening result, or participating in CRC screening after one year. However, flexible sigmoidoscopy participation is associated with increased anxiety for a smaller, possibly anxious group.
