Relationship Between Health Beliefs And Breast Self Examination Among Female Workers In Owerri

Abstract

The study investigated the relationship between health beliefs and breast self

examination. Two hundred and twenty eight (228) female workers from the state

ministries in Owerri participated in the study. Participants were within the age

range of 20 to 59 years with mean age of 35.28. Six hypotheses are tested for the

study. Two instruments for data collection were Champion Health Belief Model

Scale (CHBMS) and Breast self Examination questionnaire (BSE). Data analysis

using Linear Regression was able to explain 24% of the variance for the health

belief model variables. The results of the study indicate that perceived health

motivation and perceived barriers showed significant positive relationship to breast

self examination, R2=.245, F (6,221) =11.922; P
