METHODS: A detailed questionnaire on cancer breast was designed with all the needed information. Using a map of the Jeddah area of Saudi Arabia, schools were identified in each area and permission was sought from the Ministry of Education to distribute the questionnaire to the students. A team of volunteers was instructed on how to distribute and collect the questionnaires. The collected questionnaires were then statistically analyzed. This Pilot study of 500 students was performed in King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital using high schools from the city of Jeddah between April and June 2009. The results were used to build up a base for designing a community educational program. RESULTS: Analysis of the data from 337 questionnaires from high school and college students showed that the level of knowledge of young females on breast cancer is limited. However, it also indicated that the students are very enthusiastic to learn about cancer breast, and its prevention. CONCLUSION: The limited knowledge level of breast cancer in the younger generation might be an obstacle to screening programs and early diagnosis. Awareness programs should be developed including lectures, seminars workshops, and on hands training  ردمد : 0379-5284  اسم الدورية : المجلة الطبية السعودية  المجلد : 31  العدد : 11  سنة النشر : 1431 هـ 2010 م  نوع المقالة : مقالة علمية  تاريخ الاضافة على الموقع : Friday, April 1, 2011  الباحثون اسم الباحث (عربي) اسم الباحث (انجليزي) نوع الباحث المرتبة العلمية البريد الالكتروني وفاء سيت Sait, Wafa باحث رئيسي دكتوراه   سامية العمودي Al-Amoudi, Samia باحث مشارك دكتوراه   حسان عبدالجبار AbdulJabbar, Hassan باحث مشارك دكتوراه   الملفات اسم الملف النوع الوصف  29445.pdf pdf   الرجوع إلى صفحة الأبحاث
