A random sample of 95,603 eligible women aged 45\u201375 years was followed from 2006 to 2020. Adherence was calculated monthly using 24-month screening intervals and categorized as poor (&lt;0.2), low (0.2\u2013&lt;0.5), moderate (0.5\u2013&lt;0.8), or full (\u22650.8). Associations with sociodemographic, clinical, and preventive health behaviors were examined.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adherence was poor in 26.6%, low in 26.9%, moderate in 28.2%, and full in 18.3% of participants. Higher adherence was associated with younger entry age, central residence, and Arab versus ultra-Orthodox affiliation, whereas lower adherence correlated with peripheral residence and higher religiosity. Obesity, diabetes, hypertension, depression, and dementia were more prevalent among poorly adherent women. Engagement in other preventive services (Pap smear, influenza and pneumococcal vaccination, colorectal screening) clustered with mammography adherence. Mortality was lower in the full adherence group (3.8%) than in the poor adherence group (43.2%; p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Despite universal coverage, substantial disparities in mammography adherence persist.
