The aim of the study is to increase the participation level of women in screening programs by increasing the level of knowledge about early diagnosis and screening methods for breast cancer (BC).
This was a pretest-posttest one group design study held in Eskişehir Osmangazi University, Turkey. The sample consisted of 405 women in all departments of the University. Data were collected using socio-demographic forms and questionnaires. Training about BC was provided for participants. The questionnaire used prior to the training to measure levels of knowledge about BC was re-administered 3 weeks after the training.
The women were most commonly aware of the breast self-examination (68.1%). The ratio of women who had had mammography in the previous year was 11.4%. The BC knowledge level significantly increased after the training (p=0.001).
This study determined that the level of knowledge about BC in terms of early detection and screening was low and that the percentage of participation in screening was also low.
本研究的目的是通过提高对乳腺癌（BC）早期诊断和筛查方法的认识水平，提高女性参与筛查项目的程度。
这是一项在土耳其埃斯基谢希尔奥斯曼加齐大学进行的前后测单组设计研究。样本包括该大学所有院系的405名女性。使用社会人口学表格和问卷收集数据。为参与者提供了关于乳腺癌的培训。在培训前用于测量乳腺癌知识水平的问卷在培训3周后重新进行了发放。
女性最常知晓的是乳房自我检查（68.1%）。前一年进行过乳房X光检查的女性比例为11.4%。培训后乳腺癌知识水平显著提高（p=0.001）。
本研究确定，在早期发现和筛查方面，乳腺癌的知识水平较低，参与筛查的比例也较低。
