dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of the research was to determine the effect of education given to the women with hearing impairments on the behaviours of Pap smear test. Methods: This study was a controlled trial study with longitudinal design. The sample consisted of 156 women (intervention = 78, control = 78) who registered in hearing-impaired associations in Izmir, Turkey. The education about cervical cancer and Pap smear test was given to intervention group with face-to-face interviews by using Turkish sign language. Three months later, the women were contacted and asked whether they have had a Pap smear test, and the total knowledge score of intervention groups was evaluated. Results: There was not a statistically significant difference between the mean total score of knowledge about cervical cancer and Pap smear test in intervention (0.6 ± 1.6) and control (1.1 ± 1.9) groups. After 3 months, having a Pap smear test was found to be statistically significantly higher between groups (intervention = 29.5%, control = %1.2), and the mean cervical cancer and Pap smear knowledge score of the intervention group (9.2 ± 1.4) was found to be statistically significantly higher than the score before education (0.6 ± 1.6). Conclusion: Education of cervical cancer and Pap smear test increased knowledge level and behaviour of Pap smear test of the women. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
