Hence the research hypothesis was accepted. This shows that planned teaching program was effective in terms of improving the knowledge of samples regarding breast cancer and breast self-examination. The chi square value of age (χ2 =1.150, table value=0.563), course of study (χ2 =1.051, table value=0.591), marital status (χ2 =0.873, table value=0.350), gender (χ 2 =1.326, table value=0.250), occupation of mother (χ2 =0.979, table value=0.323), education of father (χ2 = 3.049, table value=0.550), education of mother (χ 2 =3.333, table value=0.504), area of residence (χ2 =1.125, table value=0.570), previous knowledge (χ 2 =1.164, table value=0.003) were greater than its table value which reveals that there is associations of pretest knowledge score with these selected demographic variables and occupation of father (χ2 =0.281, table value=0.596) is less than its table value which reveals that there is no association of pretest knowledge score with selected demographic variable.
