This study aimed to examine changes in knowledge and health beliefs (perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers) regarding HPV infection and cervical cancer among students residing in a university dormitory following a planned education program based on the HBM.
RQ1: Do students' HPV knowledge levels differ across pre-education, post-education, and month-three measurements? RQ2: Do students' HPV-related health beliefs (perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers) differ across the same time points?

Participants in this arm will receive a structured educational intervention on human papillomavirus (HPV), including information on HPV infection, transmission, prevention, vaccination, screening, and risk factors. Participants' baseline knowledge will be assessed using a pre-test before the intervention. Following completion of the educational intervention, the same or equivalent assessment will be administered as a post-test to evaluate changes in HPV-related knowledge.
Other: Educational intervention HPV
Educational intervention on human papillomavirus (HPV), including information on HPV infection, transmission, prevention, vaccination, screening, and risk factors.
Change in HPV-Related Knowledge Score
Change in participants' HPV-related knowledge scores from pre-test (baseline) to post-test, assessed using the HPV knowledge questionnaire. Higher scores indicate a higher level of HPV-related knowledge.
Time frame: Baseline, immediately after the educational intervention, and 3 months after the intervention
Change in Health Beliefs Regarding HPV and HPV Vaccination
Changes in participants' health beliefs regarding human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV vaccination will be assessed using the Health Belief Model Scale for Human Papillomavirus and its Vaccination (HBMS-HPVV) at baseline, immediately after the educational intervention, and 3 months after the intervention.
Time frame: Baseline, immediately after the educational intervention, and 3 months after the intervention
