Resum:	Patients' decisions on prostate cancer (PCa) opportunistic screening may vary. This study aimed to assess how demographic and health-related characteristics may influence knowledge and decisions regarding PCa screening. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among men aged over 40, randomly sampled from the Spanish population, 2022. The survey underwent development and content validation using a modified Delphi method and was administered via telephone. Binomial logistic regression was used to explore the relationship between respondents' characteristics and participants' knowledge and practices concerning PCa and the PSA test. Out of 1,334 men, 1,067 (80%) respondents were interviewed with a mean age of 58. 6 years (sd 11. 9). Most had secondary or university studies (787, 73. 8%) and 61 (5. 7%) selfreported their health status as bad or very bad. Most of the respondents (1,018, 95. 4%) had knowledge regarding PCa with nearly 70% expressed significant concern about its potential development (720, 70. 8%), particularly among those under 64 years (p = 0. 001). Out of 847 respondents, 573 (67. 7%) reported that they have knowledge regarding the PSA test: 374 (65. 4%) reported receiving information from a clinicians, 324 (86. 6%) information about the benefits of the test and 189 (49,5%) about its risks, with differences based on educational background. In a multivariable analysis (adjusted for age, educational level and previous prostate problems), respondents with higher levels of education were more likely to have higher knowledge regarding the PSA test (OR 1. 75, 95%CI 1. 24-2. 50, p<0. 001). Although most of the patients reported to have knowledge regarding PCa, half of the interviewed men reported knowledge about PSA test. Differences in knowledge prostate cancer screening and undesirable consequences highlight the need to develop and provide tailored information for patients.
