The Effects of Health Beliefs on Cancer Screening and Distrust in Health Systems on Healthcare Demand Procrastination: A Cross-Sectional Study

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between health beliefs about cancer screening (HBCS) and distrust in the health system (DHS) with healthcare demand procrastination behavior (HDPB). Materials and Methods: A total of 1040 participants were included in the study. Champion's Health Belief Model Scale, Distrust in Health Systems Scale, Health Service Demand Procrastination Behavior Scale, and general information form were used to collect data. Descriptive statistics, difference analysis, correlation, and regression analysis were used in data analysis. Results: There was a positive relationship between perceived susceptibility, perceived seriousness, perceived barriers, self-efficacy, and DHS and HDPB, while there was a negative relationship between perceived benefits and HDPB (p<0.05). There was a difference according to education level except for the avoidance sub-dimension (p<0.05). Single individuals had higher procrastination tendencies in all sub-dimensions and the general scale (p<0.05). Avoidance tendency was higher in individuals without private or complementary health insurance (p<0.05). Conclusions: Focusing efforts on reducing perceived barriers to participating in cancer screenings and increasing trust in the health system may reduce HDPB.
