Abstract

The study investigated the factor influencing the girls attitude towards BSE, and breast size dissatisfaction was examined as a possible determinant of BSE practice attitude. Two hundred and thirty-three (n=233) female undergraduates pooled from three tertiary institutions in Nigeria participated in the study. The respondents completed self-report measures on attitude towards BSE practice and the Breast Size Rating Scale. A simple regression analysis was conducted on the data. The result revealed that breast size dissatisfaction statistically predicted BSE practice. The conclusion and practical implications of the study are discussed.
