- Abstract
Cervical cancer can be detected early using the AVI method. The accuracy of this test is up to 85%. The attention of productive age women and her surrounding environment to access early cervical cancer detection was relatively low. The study aimed to determine the association between health education exposure and subjective norms to the intention of early detection of cervical cancer. Observational study with cross sectional methods included 93 females as respondents. The data was collected using a set of questionnaire. Health education exposure and subjective norms had proven to be the factors that affected women to take cervical cancer early detection through the AVI method (p-value < 0.05). Creating a supportive environment would give great motivation for women to access the cervical cancer screening program.
