Materyal and Metod: This is a cross-sectional descriptive study. The Research was conducted with 228 parents in Turkey girls studying in primary and secondary schools of the state in the Mediterranean region. Data were collected through a questionnaire form prepared by the researchers. In the evaluation of the data, descriptive statistics were shown as mean and standard deviation for the quantitative variables of the research determined by measurement, and as numbers and percentages for qualitative variables determined by counting.
Results: It was determined that 44.7% of the mothers had heard of HPV before and 76.3% of them stated that protection from HPV could be possible with vaccination. It was determined that not all mothers had their children vaccinated.
Conclusion: In our study, it was determined that the mothers' level of knowledge about HPV vaccine was quite low and their attitude towards HPV vaccine was negative. It was determined that the mothers believed that the vaccine was protective, but did not vaccinate their children.

Amaç: Bu çalışamnın amacı kız çocuğu olan annelerin HPV aşısı hakkındaki farkındalık, bilgi düzeyi ve tutumlarının belirlenmesidir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma kesitsel tanımlayıcı bir çalışmadır. Araştırma, Türkiye’de Akdeniz Bölgesi'ndeki bir büyük şehirde yer alan bir devlet okulunun ilk ve ortaokullarında öğrenim gören 228 kız çocuğunun ebeveyni ile yürütülmüştür. Veriler araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan anket formu aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, ölçme yoluyla belirlenen araştırmanın nicel değişkenleri için ortalama ve standart sapma, sayma yoluyla belirlenen nitel değişkenler için ise sayı ve yüzde olarak gösterilmiştir.
Bulgular: Annelerin %44,7'sinin daha önce HPV'yi duyduğu ve %76,3'ünün HPV'den korunmanın aşı ile mümkün olabileceğini belirttiği belirlenmiştir. Tüm annelerin çocuklarına aşı yaptırmadığı belirlenmiştir.
Sonuç: Çalışmamızda annelerin HPV aşısı hakkındaki bilgi düzeylerinin oldukça düşük olduğu ve HPV aşısına karşı tutumlarının olumsuz olduğu belirlenmiştir. Annelerin aşının koruyucu olduğuna inandıkları ancak çocuklarına aşı yaptırmadıkları belirlenmiştir.
