A cross-sectional study was conducted from June to August 2023 among 425 women aged 18 years and older in Mukalla City, Yemen. Participants were recruited via convenience sampling from primary healthcare centers and three major malls. Pregnant women and those with a history of cervical cancer were excluded. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered, pre-tested questionnaire assessing sociodemographics, knowledge, and attitudes towards cervical cancer and HPV vaccination. Trained healthcare personnel ensured uniform data collection. Descriptive statistics and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze associations between sociodemographic factors and knowledge or attitudes. SPSS version 26 was utilized for data analysis.
