PURPOSE:
This study was to identify factors affecting mammography screening behavior in job women by attitude, social influence and self-efficacy model.METHODS:
The data were obtained from 171 job women in one residency area by structural questionnaire from March to June 2013 and analysed by using chi2-test, ANOVA, Spearman's correlation and logistic regression analysis.RESULTS:
The each performance rate was 45.1% in mammography, 44.9% in breast self examination and 48.5% in physical examination. The mammography performance rate in job women showed higher significance in the groups of 1) older age, urban residency, marital status or high economic state, 2) shorter office hours or higher job position, 3) childbirth experience or menopause and 4) preferring soy bean food, practicing regular exercise, suffering chronic disease or receiving radiation therapy. Attitude, social influences and self-efficacy made significant differences in mammography performance. Logistic regression analysis showed that 50 years or older, urban residency, social influences towards mammography and high self-efficacy were significant relationship.CONCLUSION:
In order to increase the mammography performance rate, the intervention strategies are needed to increase positive social influences or self-efficacy and to offer public information to younger age.
