Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Turkish Version of Champion's Health Belief Model Scale (CHBMS-T)
Champion's Health Belief Model Scale (CHBMS), developed by Champion in 1984 and revised in 1993, is used to measure women's beliefs about breast cancer and breast self-examination (BSE). The Turkish Version of the Champion's Health Belief Model Scale was validated by Gözüm and Aydın in 2004 with 8 sub-dimensions and 58 items. Questions were answered on a 5-point Likert-type response scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), and mean scores were computed for each subscale. The total score that can be obtained from the scale is 58 minimum and 290 maximum. Thus, higher scores represent perceptions of greater susceptibility to breast cancer, greater benefits from screening, and higher barriers to screening. The opposite was expected for higher perceived barriers. A total scale score was also derived by computing the mean of the mean subscale scores, with barriers reverse coded.
4 Months Questions were answered on a 5-point Likert-type response scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), and mean scores were computed for each subscale.
The Health Belief Model Scale for Cervical Cancer and the Pap Smear Test(HBMSCCPS)
Developed by Champion for breast cancer and mammography, this scale, which was adapted to cervical cancer and pap smear test by Güvenç, Akyüz, and Açıkel in 2011, is used to investigate the beliefs of women in respect of cervical cancer and the Pap Smear Test to assist healthcare professionals to develop more effective cervical cancer screening programmes. The scale consists of 35 items and five main dimensions. Questions were answered on a 5-point Likert-type response scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). The total score that can be obtained from the scale is 35 minimum and 175 maximum. The higher scores indicate agreement with the beliefs of health assessment.
