Specific types of oncogene HPV 16, 18 have been identified in patient with cervical cancer.

In the present study it is evident that the demographic variables such as age, type of family, place of residence area the calculated chi-square value is less than the critical value at p<0.05 level of significant. So null hypothesis is accepted and research hypothesis is rejected. In demographic variables such as gender, father?s qualification, mother?s qualification, previous knowledge regarding cervical cancer and sources of information regarding cervical cancer, the calculated chi-square value is higher than the critical value at p<0.05 level of significance. So null hypothesis is rejected and research hypothesis is accepted. The obtained data is analysed by using descriptive and inferential statistics, Split-half method correlation co-efficient test and chi-square test tested at 0.05 level of significance to find out association of knowledge regarding cervical cancer and selected socio-demographic variables.
