Language discordance, cultural differences, and challenges navigating the healthcare system contribute to these inequities. Because cancer information-seeking behaviors influence cancer screening and treatment decision-making, this study examines the association between nativity and cancer information-seeking among middle-aged and older in the U.S. We utilized pooled data from the U.S. National Cancer Institute\u2019s Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS4, Cycle 4 [2014] and HINTS5, Cycles 1 &amp; 2 [2017 &amp; 2018]) for a sample of 5,311 respondents (aged\u2009\u2265\u200950 years) who sought health and medical information from any source. We investigated associations between U.S.- and foreign-born status and cancer information-seeking behavior by fitting a weighted multivariable logistic regression to generate adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs). About 530 (10.5%) respondents were foreign-born. Respondents were primarily aged 50\u201364 years (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20092,751; 63.2%), female (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20093,054; 53.7%), had\u2009\u2265\u20091 chronic medical condition (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20094,084; 72.6%), and had a regular health provider (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20094,245; 79.2%). More than half (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20093,070; 55.7%) ever sought cancer information from any source. Compared to the U.S.-born, foreign-born respondents had lower odds of cancer information-seeking (aOR\u2009=\u20090.68; 95% CI: 0.47\u20130.96). The findings demonstrate that middle-aged and older foreign-born adults were less likely to engage in cancer information-seeking compared to U.S.-born respondents. Tailored interventions that are responsive to the diverse needs of foreign-born populations may encourage cancer information-seeking and enhance their knowledge of cancer, preventive care, and cancer treatment options.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s40615-026-03141-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,29]],"date-time":"2026-07-29T15:09:57Z","timestamp":1785337797000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Nativity and Cancer Information-Seeking Behaviors Among Middle-Aged and Older-Adults in the United States"],"prefix":"10.1007","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-8858-3737","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sapna Anne","family":"Kedia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-2694-2713","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shreya","family":"Sirohi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2081-6341","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Coree","family":"Entwistle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7005-2568","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hyunmin","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-9213-408X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexandria M.","family":"Boykins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2680-9110","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Asos","family":"Mahmood","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"3141_CR1","unstructured":"National Cancer Institute.
