The data were collected using questionnaires and were analyzed using spearman rhostatistical test in which p = < 0,05. The result shows that perceived seriousness is correlated with the early detection ofcervical cancer (p = 0,006, r = 0,266) and perceived barriers is also correlated with the early detection of cervical cancer(p = 0,000, r = 0,586). Based on the result, it can be concluded that high level of perceived seriousness increase theintention for taking early detection of cervical cancer.
