Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancer types affecting women in our country and in the world and causing morbidity. However, the availability of a vaccine for cervical cancer, preventable risk factors and early diagnosis tests offer a unique opportunity to reduce the rate of cervical cancer. In this context, there are studies showing that the practices developed by policies differ and that the classical health approach is insufficient. The effectiveness of the trainings given may vary according to time, place, trainer and personal characteristics of the individual. At the same time, in order to improve the attitudes and behaviours of individuals in terms of prevention and early diagnosis of cervical cancer, awareness of individuals about cervical cancer should be increased. In this way, women will have a say about their own health and their conscious participation in health care services will be realised. Therefore, the aim of this project is to apply cervical cancer awareness training to women and to examine its effect on women's cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis behaviours. Original value; The fact that there is no mobile application developed for cervical cancer in Turkey reveals the national value of the research. In addition, the mobile application has international unique value as it is the first mobile application structured to provide awareness on cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis behaviours. The project method was planned for the development and implementation of the mobile application programme. The research design will be a randomised controlled study. The 120 women who meet the inclusion criteria and who apply to more than one family health centre will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. The effect of the mobile application programme on women's attitudes and behaviours towards cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis will be evaluated at the 6th and 12th weeks. In the evaluation of the data, t-test for independent groups, anova and chi-square tests will be used to measure the effect of the intervention. Widespread effect; In this way, it is planned to reduce the time spent by professionals for care-related activities, to strengthen time management, to provide advantages and improvements in the performance of nurses in patient care management by using technological resources in the health care provided.

Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancer types affecting women in our country and in the world and causing morbidity. However, the availability of a vaccine for cervical cancer, preventable risk factors and early diagnosis tests offer a unique opportunity to reduce the rate of cervical cancer. The World Health Organization launched the "global strategy to accelerate the elimination of cervical cancer as a public health problem" programme in 2020 to eliminate cervical cancer by 2030. In this context, there are studies showing that the practices developed by policies differ and that the classical health approach is insufficient. The effectiveness of the trainings given may vary according to time, place, trainer and personal characteristics of the individual. At the same time, in order to improve the attitudes and behaviours of individuals in terms of prevention and early diagnosis of cervical cancer, awareness of individuals about cervical cancer should be increased. In this way, women will have a say about their own health and their conscious participation in health care services will be realised. Therefore, the aim of this project is to apply cervical cancer awareness training to women and to examine its effect on women's cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis behaviours. Original value; the fact that there is no mobile application developed for cervical cancer in our country reveals the national value of the research. In addition, the mobile application has an international unique value as it is the first mobile application structured to provide awareness about cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis behaviours. It is thought that the mobile application programme to be developed has a unique content that provides knowledge and skills to increase the health culture and participation in health decisions thanks to its educational content such as cervical cancer risk factors, prevention methods, diagnostic tests, test results, treatment methods. In addition, it is the first mobile application developed in the national/international field regarding cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis attitudes and behaviours in line with the deficiencies identified in the literature. The project method was planned for the development and implementation of the mobile application programme. The research design will be a randomised controlled study. A total of 120 women who meet the inclusion criteria and apply to more than one family health centre will be randomly assigned to the intervention (women who use the mobile application programme) and control groups (women who receive the standard education booklet). The mobile application programme includes a total of 12 interfaces for cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis of cervical cancer. The content of the interfaces and the developed mobile application will be evaluated with the opinion of experts and pre-application. The effect of the mobile application programme on women's attitudes and behaviours towards cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis will be evaluated in the 6th and 12th weeks. In the evaluation of the data, t-test, anova and chi-square tests for independent groups will be used to measure the effect of the intervention.
