SELECTION OF STUDY POPULATION Selecting women coming for routing testing/exams at the Gynecology Clinic gives us the chance to have our questionnaires completed by a broad sample of women. At least in Italy, where the National Health System guarantees an easy and affordable access to sanitary services, women of all ages and social classes periodically come to clinic to have their gynecologic exam or pap test done. Therefore, even if selected inside a clinic our female sample can reasonably be considered a realistic example of the general female population.
