Results

The results demonstrated a significant increase in participants'awareness of cancer warning signs(p=0.001, p=0.019) and risk factors(p=0.002, p<0.001), as well as a reduction in perceived barriers to seeking medical help(p=0.022, p=0.023) before and after the intervention. Additionally, the program strengthened the girls' intentions to adopt preventive behaviors and led to behavioral changes in breast self-examination among their mothers.
