Summary/Abstract: Based on the county regional incidences in 2004, it can be stated that the occurrence of cervix cancer in Zala county is especially high. The aim of the research is to reveal the reasons for non-appearance on cervix screenings in Zalaegerszeg and its surrounding areas, using data collected by a stratified sampling method from 1000 women. 48,9% of the questioned women appear on a screening annually. During the main component analysis, the 28 variables of the motivational scale grouped around three theoretical sub-conceptions. It is a well-known fact that a population screening can only be effective if the members of the population have a demand for the screening. The conception and the infrastructure, which were worked out by the health administration, have been available since 2003. The fundamental problem of the system is related to the population's low participation rate, which is influenced by fear, the posibble damage of the private sphere and the uncomfortable feeling related to the screening. Although, it cannot be forgotten that a great number of the women feel responsible for their own state of health therefore they do attend the screenings.
