Abstract

Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women, preventable through the IVA test, a cost-effective and sensitive screening method. This study examines the relationship between attitudes and family support on IVA test participation among 63 women at Ciputat Health Center using a cross-sectional design and Chi Square analysis. Results indicate 77.8% had supportive attitudes and 65.1% received family support. Significant relationships were found for attitudes (P = 0.0007) and family support (P = 0.030) with IVA test participation. Findings suggest that positive attitudes and family support are important factors promoting early cervical cancer detection through IVA test.
