HBM-Based Intervention on Cancer Screening

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of an intervention-consisting of a Health Belief Model-based educational session on the importance of early diagnosis and cancer screening, along with SMS-supported reminders-on the perceptions and attitudes toward cancer screening among women aged 30-70 who do not undergo regular screenings. The study will be conducted in two family centers, which will be assigned to intervention and control groups using a lottery method. The intervention group will receive a single-session group education, followed by weekly SMS reminders encouraging screening for two weeks. The control group will receive no additional intervention and will continue with standard care. Data will be collected simultaneously from both groups at three points: before the education, immediately after the education, and one month post-intervention.
