Huntington disease (HD) is a late-onset genetic disorder that is incurable and undetectable until the onset of symptoms. A marker for the gene that causes HD was recently discovered that will lead to a predictive test. The purpose of this research was to assess the attitudes, beliefs, and behavioral

Before the mutation causing Huntington disease was identified, predictive testing of 25% at-risk persons with a 50% at-risk parent who did not wish to know his/her genetic status, was only possible by exclusion testing. The exclusion test, using linked markers, ensures the parent's wish not to know

We performed a long-term follow-up of Huntington disease (HD) predictive testing (an average of 6 years post-test) for 16 of 20 people who received informative linkage test results. Although no pre-test or baseline psychological differences were noted between those with an increased versus a decreas
