“…Given that, many factors have been examined and evaluated such as lack of knowledge and awareness, insufficient of health information, social marketing campaign failure, cost of health care and many more (Kirca, Tuzcu, & Gozum, 2018;Mar, Sam, & Wilson, 2018;Osina, 2017a;Rainey et al, 2018). Also, psychosocial factors for example, fear of breast screening results, ashamed of own-self unhealthy condition have further contributed to the late stage breast screening (Gupta et al, 2018;Santana et al, 2018).…”

Despite the advanced medical technology nowadays, breast cancer incidence rate is still increasing worldwide. This is due to females lack of knowledge and awareness about the breast screening. Therefore, the objective of this study is to explore the factors that influence females’ intention towards breast cancer early diagnosis with health belief model and provide practical recommendations. To evaluate the proposed hypotheses in this study, 600 self-administrated questionnaires were distributed to Malaysian female who is 18 years old and above with the usage of non-probable sampling approach (convenience sampling approach). Given that, the findings demonstrate perceived barriers has the greatest impact towards females’ breast cancer early diagnosis intention, followed by perceived severity and perceived susceptibility. The contribution of this study is to evaluate the relationships between perceived severity, perceived susceptibility and perceived barriers towards females’ breast screening intention with the mediating variable of attitude. To support this, health believe model and theory of planned behaviour are employed in this research.

“…This finding supports the results of previous studies that indicated the effect of family history on enhancing mammography behavior. Examining screening behaviors in women with a family history of breast cancer argues that this history increases their risk of breast cancer and induces greater worry leads to enhanced screening,[ 33 34 ] whereas other studies have reported that anxiety decreased the likelihood of mammography screening practice.

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is a preventable disease, using three secondary preventive methods of mammography, clinical breast examination (CBE), and breast self-examination (BSE) that can lead to early detection of breast cancer. This study was designed to assess breast cancer screening behavior and its associated factors in females employed in South Khorasan. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this analytic-descriptive study, 2256 female personnel of governmental organizations were investigated in Birjand city in 2016–2017. The data collection tool was a three-part questionnaire: sociodemographic characteristics, knowledge about breast cancer screening methods plus women's performance, and stage of change regarding screening behaviors of mammography, CBE, and BSE. The data were analyzed by SPSS 16 and one-way analysis variance, Tukey's post hoc, and multiple logistic regression model statistical tests. RESULTS: The mean ± standard deviation score of knowledge of the women was 3.45 ± 1.5. There was a significant difference of the mean score of knowledge between the single and married (P = 0.03) and age group (P = 0.04). The stage action of mammography, CBE, and BSE was 6.8%, 12.3%, and 16.8%, respectively. Logistic regression model showed that variables such as age and family history of breast cancer were highly significant related to mammography and also CBE. Knowledge was also highly significant in mammography, CBE, and BSE. Education level in CBE, marital status in BSE and mammography, and job in BSE were also significant (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: This study reveals insufficient knowledge of female workers about breast cancer and the negative influence of low knowledge on the practice of breast cancer screening behavior. Therefore, the establishment and maintenance of regular educational courses for female employees is essential.

The aim of this article was to investigate the relationship between the fear of breast cancer, perceived risk, knowledge of breast cancer, and breast cancer diagnosis behaviors in women with and without a family history of breast cancer. Materials and Methods:The study used a descriptive and cross-sectional design and was carried out through face-toface interviews between December 2019 and April 2020 with 308 women who had a family history of breast cancer and were receiving breast cancer treatment in the Oncology and Chemotherapy unit of a city hospital and 523 patient relatives who were receiving treatment in other services of the hospital and had no family history of breast cancer. Results: The perceived risk of breast cancer in ten years by women with a family history of breast cancer, compared to that of women with no family history, increased by 1,938 times, the fear of breast cancer score increased by 1,073 times and that the Comprehensive Breast Cancer Knowledge Test (CBCKT) score increased by 3,269 times. Conclusion:The breast cancer diagnosis behaviors of women with a family history (performing BSE, having a CBE, having a mammogram in women aged over 40) increased significantly compared to those who did not have a family history, but that it was still not at the desired level in both groups. Amaç: Bu çalışmada ailesel meme kanseri öyküsü olan ve olmayan kadınlarda meme kanseri korkusu, risk algısı, meme kanseri bilgisi ve meme kanseri tanılama davranışları arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı-kesitsel tipte yapılan araştırma, Aralık 2019 -Nisan 2020 tarihleri arasında bir şehir hastanesinin Onkoloji ve Kemoterapi ünitesinde meme kanseri tedavisi gören 308 aile öyküsü olan ve diğer servislerde tedavi gören aile öyküsü olmayan 523 hasta yakını kadın ile yüz yüze görüşme yöntemi ile yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Aile öyküsü olan kadınların olmayan kadınlara göre on yıl içindeki meme kanseri risk algısının 1,938 kat, meme kanseri korku puanının 1,073 kat ve Geniş Kapsamlı Meme Kanseri Bilgi Testi (GKMKBT) tedavi edilebilirlik puanının 3,269 kat arttığı belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Çalışmada aile öyküsü olan kadınların meme kanseri tanılama davranışlarının (KKMM yapma, KMM yaptırma, 40 yaş üstü kadınlarda mamografi çektirme) aile öyküsü olmayanlara göre anlamlı şekilde arttığı ancak her iki grupta da hala istendik düzeyde olmadığı belirlendi.
