2.There were significant associations between the score on nurses knowledge of BSE and education level(F=6.752，P=0.01). There were not significant associations between the score on nurses attitude of BSE and general factors (P>0.05). There were significant associations between the score on nurses self practice of BSE and age (F=2.734，P=0.044)，and merital status(t=-2.598, P=0.010).
3.There were significant associations between the score on nurses knowledge of BSE and exercise for health (t=2.259, P= 0.024), frequency of performance in BSE(F-6.641, P=0.000), confidence in knowledge of BSE technique(F=5.661, P=0.000), confidence in finding breast nodule(F= 7.684，PO.OOO). There were not significant associations between the score on nurses attitude of BSE and BSE relating factors( P>0.05). There were significant associations between the score on nurses self-practice of BSE and exercise for health (t=2.269,P= 0.024), enlisting the help of significant peers (t= 3.393，P= O.OOl)，frequency of performance in BSE(F= 13.932，P= O.OOO), confidence in knowledge of BSE technique(F=5.350, P=0.000), confidence in finding breast nodule(F= 7.204 ，P=0.000)，asking clients of BSE, ( t= 3.153, P=0.011)
