NCT ID NCT07451340
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study adapted a questionnaire called the Cervical Cancer Screening Uptake Questionnaire (CCSTQ) into Turkish and tested it with 530 women aged 21-65. The goal was to see if the Turkish version accurately measures factors like knowledge, social norms, and beliefs that affect whether women get screened for cervical cancer. No treatment or medical intervention was given.
