It was found that among the 188 women, 52.7 percent had used cervical cancer
screening services and 47.3 percent had not used of the screening services. The sample
expressed a high level of knowledge about cervical cancer, a moderate level attitude toward
the screening, a high level of perceived susceptibility to cervical cancer, a moderate level of
perceived severity of cervical cancer and a moderate level of perceived benefits of following
advice for the prevention of cervical cancer. Factors that were significantly related to cervical
cancer screening at the statistic of level p < 0.05 were predisposing factors concerning
knowledge about cervical cancer (OR =1.97 95%CI 1.09 – 3.54), attitude toward cervical
cancer screening (OR =2.74 95%CI 1.49 – 5.05), perceived benefits of following advice for
prevention of cervical cancer (OR =4.16 95%CI 2.24 – 7.77), and an enabling factor
concerning distance from home to primary care units (OR =2.46 95%CI 1.23 – 4.94).
