This study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of a sexual health education on college women’s intentions to seek a gynecological examination, knowledge of cervical cancer, and likelihood of cervical screening.
86 female volunteers at a university in T metropolitan city participated in an one group pretest-posttest design survey. The intervention was implemented for four weeks of April 2002 with a short course including group works to encourage college women’s social skills in a gynecological examination encounter by using dramaturgical interaction model. A confidential questionnaire administered at baseline and postintervention measured change in (a) intentions to seek a gynecological examination, (b) knowledge of cervical cancer, and (c) likelihood of cervical screening.
The subjects self-reports showed significant positive changes in intentions to seek a gynecological examination(p <0.005), knowledge of cervical cancer(p <0.0005), and likelihood of cervical screening(p <0.05) one week after the intervention.
A short course of sexual health education based on dramaturgical interaction model resulted in positive influence on cognitive and behavioral intention of sexual health among college females. The intervention was successful in developing college women’s social skills in a gynecological examination encounter. More rigorously designed trial is needed to develop comprehensive sexual health promotion programme that targets both cognitive and behavioral change for young female adults.
