title: [Amalgam. XVII. Associations between views on dental amalgam and other variables].
abstract: Bivariate associations between views on amalgam in the Netherlands and other variables, such as preventive health measures and environmental ones, information on amalgam in the mass media, knowledge of the composition of amalgam, socio-demographic variables, visits to alternative healers, regularity of dental attendance, number of teeth, etcetera, appear in general to be low, yet significant, and even very low.
