Abstract

A significant number of males attending colleges and universities in the United States have limited or no current knowledge of testicular cancer and screening practices (Tosun, Gul, & Arikan, 2020).

Lack of knowledge of testicular cancer and practice of testicular self-examinations.

The evidence-based health promotion project aimed to increase testicular self-examination practices in male college students and increase their knowledge of testicular cancer.
