| description | Background: Regular screening has an important role in early detection of breast cancer. Due to high prevalence of breast cancer and its late diagnosis in Iran, the aim of this study was to determine the breast cancer screening practice and its relationship with breast cancer screening beliefs.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in Tehran, Iran, during the years 2017-2018 with participation of 335 women who met the inclusion criteria, referred to the selected health centers affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences; they were selected using convenience sampling method. Study tools included checklist of breast cancer screening information, breast cancer screening beliefs questionnaire, and demographic information checklist. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t test and logistic regression analysis via SPSS software. The significance level was considered as P < 0.05.
Findings: The mean age of 335 participants was 34.78 years, and the vast majority of them were married, housewife, and had good income. The mean ± standard deviation of the breast cancer screening beliefs score was 41.03 ± 10.54. The mean score of screening beliefs was 42.71 ± 10.76 and 38.16 ± 9.38 in subjects with and without screening practice, which showed a significant difference in t-test (P = 0.001). Based on logistic regression analysis, independent variables of age, education, marital status, and breast cancer screening belief score were predictive of breast cancer screening practice (P < 0.050 for all).
Conclusion: According to the results of this study, breast cancer screening belief (awareness, attitude, and barrier of screening) and socioeconomic factors should be considered in breast cancer screening programs. |
