Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this quasi-experimental study is to determine the effect of the "Breast Cancer Prevention Journey Program" on health beliefs about breast cancer in women over 40 years of age who have never had a mammogram before. The research aims to answer the following basic questions:

-Do women who participated in the "Breast Cancer Prevention Journey Program" have different health beliefs about breast cancer than women who did not participate in the program? The researchers will compare the program with routine care to see if the "Breast Cancer Prevention Journey Program" works. The study will be conducted in a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test post-test control group.

Participants in the experimental group will first participate in the "The fight against breast cancer" training structured according to the Health Belief Model. One week after the training, the participants in the experimental group will be taken to mammography screening with free shuttles.

Participants in the control group will not receive any additional intervention. This group will only receive routine intervention within the scope of the breast cancer screening program conducted by the Ministry of Health.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Breast Cancer Prevention Journey Program Group

Intervention Type OTHER

The researcher will invite individuals to the study at Necip Fazıl Family Center and conduct a pre-test application. The day and time for the "Fight Against Breast Cancer" training, which is structured based on the Health Belief Model prepared by the researchers, will be determined and announced to the participants. The training will be held in a single session of 45-60 minutes. Slide presentation and a breast model showing the symptoms of breast cancer will be used as training materials. At the end of the training, it will be announced that free shuttle service will be provided for mammography screening and individuals will be invited to screening. On the specified day and time, participants will be taken to the "Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening and Education Center (KETEM)" in Mamak and mammography screening will be performed. After the screening, a post-test will be performed.

Routine Cancer Screening Program Group

Participants in the control group will not receive any additional intervention. This group will only receive routine intervention within the scope of the breast cancer screening program conducted by the Ministry of Health.
