Volume 40, No. 2, page 858: On the right column, the paragraph starting with “Patients were required..6 low adherence (18, 19)” should be replaced by the following:
Patients were required to be able to complete a self-reported demographic questionnaire and the validated Morisky Medication Adherence Scale questionnaire (MMAS-8), in either English or Spanish [detailed MMAS-8 questionnaires can be found elsewhere (18, 19). Self-reported medication adherence was measured by the MMAS-8 (18, 19). The MMAS-8 scale consists of eight items, of which summation yields a maximum of 8 points. Level of adherence to AI therapy was categorized as high, medium, and low (18, 19).

Volume 40, No. 2, page 862: On the left column, the following part should be removed:
The strength of our analysis include the licensing and utilization of the validated 8-item MMAS-8 adherence questionnaire as described previously (18, 19). In addition, the average duration of adjuvant endocrine therapy was 4.3 years, which allowed for assessment of long-term adherence to therapy.
Volume 40, No. 2, page 862: After the sentence ending with “nonadherence data (22, 23, 25, 26, 34, 36, 39)”, the following part should be added:
The strengths of our analysis include the licensing and utilization of the validated 8-item MMAS-8 adherence questionnaire as described previously (18, 19, 40, 41). In addition, the average duration of adjuvant endocrine therapy was 4.3 years, which allowed for assessment of long-term adherence to therapy.
