Implication

Cross-sectional study assesses knowledge change about breast cancer in nursing students, suggesting the need for repeated education.

Key Points

  • Scores for the peak incidence age of breast cancer significantly decreased post-education, indicating gaps in knowledge retention.
  • The study used a cross-sectional design with three surveys administered to first-year nursing students at Hirosaki University.
  • Participants' understanding of early-stage cancer remained unchanged before and after the intervention, highlighting educational weaknesses.
  • Future programs must emphasize peak age awareness and include multiple educational sessions to improve long-term knowledge retention.
