Abstract

The purpose of this study to explore the relationship between trigger, threat appraisal, perceived examination with motivation and behavior of screening cervical cancer. This study used case control design. The sample amount is 410 respondents that were divided into 205 cases and 205 controls. Sampling was done by using multi stage random sampling method. Data collection was done by giving questionnaires that had been tested for its validity and reliability. Data analysis was done by using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling. Trigger directly or indirectly influence the motivation (path coefficient=0.55). Trigger had a direct effect on threat appraisal (path coefficient=0.17). Trigger had a direct effect on perceived examination (path coefficient=0.21). Motivation had a direct effect on participation of women in screening of cervical cancer (path coefficient=0.26). Perceived examination had a direct and indirect effect on the implementation of screening of cervical cancer (path coefficient=0.11). Threat appraisal had a direct and indirect effect on the implementation of screening of cervical cancer (path coefficient=0.20). To increase the participation of women in the implementation of screening of cervical cancer required appropriate trigger. The appropriate trigger will increase threat appraisal, perceived examination and motivation, so that women are encouraged to immediately carry out screening of cervical cancer.
