Summary
This study looks at whether daily social media posts can improve women's knowledge and attitudes about breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screenings. About 132 women in Turkey who have never been screened will receive either daily educational content on WhatsApp or Instagram for 8 weeks, or two standard online sessions. The goal is to see if social media can be an effective tool to increase screening awareness and digital health literacy.
