Abstract
Objective: To establish which are the factors that interfere positively and negatively in women's adherence to the Papanicolaou test. Methods: This is a cross-sectional quali-quantitative study, conducted with 233 women, based on a socioeconomic questionnaire consisting of 9 questions and a knowledge assessment questionnaire, consisting of 5 questions. Therefore, responses from women between 25 and 65 years of age, residing in the state of São Paulo, who had already had sexual intercourse and who did not have a previous diagnosis of Cervical Cancer, were accepted. Results: Of the women who declared that it was important to have the Pap smear, 98.7% did it, while among those who did not believe it was important, the rate was only 0%. Women who had religion beliefs were positively associated with carrying out the preventive examination. The factors that did not interfere with the performance of the test because there was no statistically significant association were: wage income and education. Conclusion: It is concluded that the factors positively associated with adherence to the Papanicolaou test are: knowledge about its importance and having religion beliefs.
