Influence of knowledge on cervical malignancy screening among women in Kenya
This study investigated the influence of knowledge on cervical malignancy screening among women in Kenya. By analyzing data from 300 women, we assessed how demographic factors, educational attainment, and knowledge of cervical cancer impact screening behaviors. The study found that although knowledge levels varied by age, socioeconomic status, and region, only a few factors significantly influenced screening behavior. Women with regular screening histories had significantly higher knowledge levels, highlighting the need for targeted educational interventions to improve screening uptake. The findings emphasize the importance of addressing educational gaps and regional disparities to enhance cervical cancer prevention efforts in Kenya.
