A female undergraduate sample (N =259) was used to investigate the influence of attachment, personality, and health beliefs on prospective cervical cancer screening choices and screening barriers. Two choices of cervical cancer screening were investigated: the Pap test, and a novel screening method, HPV-DNA self-sampling, a method under development in Ontario which would allow women to collect their own samples. Conscientiousness and perceived barriers to self-sampling were found to be predictive of Pap test choice, and perceived Pap test barriers were predictive of self-sampling choice. Conscientiousness emerged as the strongest predictor of screening barriers; it was inversely predictive of both Pap test and self-sampling barriers. Attachment anxiety was found to be predictive of both Pap test barriers and self-sampling barriers. Perceived susceptibility and perceived benefits were inversely predictive of Pap test barriers. Extraversion and openness were inversely predictive of self-sampling barriers. Implications of understanding psychological factors involved in cervical screening are discussed.
