Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting men globally, constituting the sixth leading cause of cancer related death in males, and the eleventh leading cause of death from cancer in all age groups. In Jordan, prostate cancer is the third most common cancer in the male population, accounting for one third (6.2%) of cancer related deaths and in 2010 alone, 218 (9.4%) new cases were identified.
To assess the effectiveness of different health education interventions aimed at enhancing knowledge, beliefs and intention to screen for prostate cancer.
A literature search from January 2000 to April 2015 was conducted using the key words "prostate disease," "educational program," "knowledge," "prostate cancer," "demographic factors and prostate cancer," "knowledge and prostate cancer," "education for patients with prostate cancer," "factors that affect intention to screen," "knowledge, beliefs, and intention to screen for prostate cancer," "impact of prostate educational program on beliefs," and "impact of educational program on intention to screen."
Majority of studies reviewed indicated that men had low levels of knowledge regarding prostate cancer, and mild to moderate beliefs with good intention to screen for prostate cancer.
Most studies indicated that men's knowledge levels about prostate cancer were poor and they had mild to moderate beliefs and intentions to screen for prostate cancer. Therefore, development of an assessment strategy based on the Health Belief Model seems essential. An effectively designed and implemented educational program can help identify the needs and priorities of the target population.
前列腺癌是全球影响男性的最常见癌症之一，是男性癌症相关死亡的第六大主要原因，也是所有年龄组癌症死亡的第十一大主要原因。在约旦，前列腺癌是男性人群中第三大常见癌症，占癌症相关死亡人数的三分之一（6.2%），仅在2010年，就确诊了218例（9.4%）新病例。
评估旨在增强前列腺癌筛查知识、信念和意愿的不同健康教育干预措施的有效性。
使用关键词“前列腺疾病”“教育项目”“知识”“前列腺癌”“人口统计学因素与前列腺癌”“知识与前列腺癌”“前列腺癌患者教育”“影响筛查意愿的因素”“前列腺癌筛查的知识、信念和意愿”“前列腺教育项目对信念的影响”以及“教育项目对筛查意愿的影响”，对2000年1月至2015年4月的文献进行检索。
大多数综述研究表明，男性对前列腺癌的知识水平较低，对前列腺癌筛查的信念为轻度至中度且筛查意愿良好。
大多数研究表明，男性对前列腺癌的知识水平较差，他们对前列腺癌筛查的信念和意愿为轻度至中度。因此，基于健康信念模型制定评估策略似乎至关重要。精心设计和实施的教育项目有助于确定目标人群的需求和优先事项。
