Purpose: This study was a descriptive study to determine the knowledge and health beliefs regarding cervical cancer of married immigrant women’s husbands and understanding of the cervical cancer human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rate of married immigrant women by their husbands.
Methods: The participants of this study were 200 immigrant women’s husbands living in G province. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire through interviews from March 20 to May 23, 2014. The data were analyzed using t-tests and ANOVA.
Results: The mean score of cervical cancer knowledge was low (11.98 score). Regarding health beliefs about cervical cancer, the levels of perceived susceptibility (3.59), seriousness (3.22) and barrier (3.46) were relatively high, whereas the levels of perceived benefit (2.84) was relatively low. The rate of HPV vaccination among the spouses of subjects was low (11.5%).
Conclusion: According to this study, it is considered to be important to improve the knowledge level of cervical cancer among married immigrant women’s husbands through education. In addition, there needs to be a change in attitude towards the HPV vaccination by reducing barriers and stressing the benefits of preventive health behavior regarding cervical cancer. These measures could help increase HPV vaccination among married immigrant women.
