简要总结
The study titled "The Effect of a Health Belief Model-Based Training Program on Women's Self-Breast Examination Behavior, Breast Cancer Fear and Awareness Levels: A Randomized Controlled Study" aimed to increase breast cancer awareness and the application of breast self-examination techniques among women by providing the necessary training through a training program based on the Health Belief Model.
详细描述
This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a Health Belief Model-based education program on women's breast self-examination practices, breast cancer fear, and awareness levels. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving a structured education program based on the Health Belief Model or a control group receiving usual care.
Data will be collected using a Personal Information Form, the Champion Health Belief Model Scale, the Comprehensive Breast Cancer Knowledge Test, the Breast Cancer Awareness Scale, and the Champion Breast Cancer Fear Scale at baseline and three months after the intervention. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to the development of effective educational strategies for improving breast cancer awareness and preventive health behaviors among women.
