Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of two different health education methods (one based on motivational interviewing) on women's HPV knowledge, cervical cancer health beliefs, and screening behaviors in women aged 30-65. A total of 90 healthy women who are registered at the Incirli Family Health Center in Ankara, meet the inclusion criteria, and volunteer to participate will be randomly assigned to three groups (30 participants per group). The control group will receive standard healthcare services. The first intervention group will receive three sessions of motivational interviewing-based health education on cervical cancer prevention through home visits, along with an informational brochure. The second intervention group will receive health education and a brochure, followed by a reminder session via phone. At the end of the study, participants in the control group will be offered the intervention of their choice.
