Effect of Audiovisual Education on Breast Cancer

The intervention program aimed to increase participation in breast cancer screenings and reduce fear among illiterate women. The three-month training was structured in three phases. In the first month, awareness was raised through visual-audio materials about breast cancer, risk factors, and the importance of early diagnosis. In the second month, practical training was provided on breast self-examination (BSE), and clinical breast examination (CBE) and mammography procedures were introduced. In the final month, group discussions and success stories supported behavioral change, reinforcing knowledge. The program's effectiveness was evaluated through pre-test and post-test comparisons.
