dc.description.abstractAim: This study was to determine the effect of negative automatic thoughts on community cancer stigma in the menopausal period. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 360 menopausal women who met the inclusion criteria in three family health centers. The study data were collected between August 2022 and October 2022 in the garden of three family health centres in an east region in Turkey between working hours three days a week. The Descriptive Characteristics Form, A Questionnaire for Measuring Attitudes Toward Cancer Questionnaire (Cancer Stigma) - Community Version Form and Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire- Negative Form (ATQ-N) were used for data collection. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and linear regression analysis. Results: Menopausal women’s community cancer stigma total mean score was found to be 3.080.53 and the negative automatic thoughts total mean score was found to be 110.39±48.17. In the study, it was found that community cancer stigma levels of menopausal women and their negative automatic thoughts were high levels. The automatic thoughts had statistical significance in explaining community cancer stigma and accounted for them by 35.3% (p˂.05). Conclusion: It was determined that the menopausal women participating in the study had high level of community cancer stigma and negative automatic thoughts.
