dc.descriptionMedia literacy is one of the pillars in encouraging the comprehension of cervical cancer- preventive behaviours through health literacy, using the strength of socio-demographic factors among women of the reproductive age group in Indonesia. The problem statements of this study are focused on the debilitating effects of cervical cancer and discovering what causes the lack of media literacy about cervical cancer issues. The aims of this study are to identify the level of literacy concerning cervical cancer issues, determine the related indicators of media-health literacy, and analyse the impact of socio-demographic factors on Indonesian women who suffer from cervical cancer. Identifying the three levels of literacy would highlight emerging issues that could allow the stakeholders to make informed decisions regarding the establishment of cervical cancer prevention behaviour policy. The study employed a quantitative design using the SmartPLS 3.0 statistical analysis, which enables the analysis of the effect of independent factors in the whole construct of media-health literacy on the dependent factors. The result of the study showed that the construct reliability and validity test result was >0.70. The R2 of the socio-demographic factors (social, economic status, age, level of education) was 0.106 when compared with health literacy, was 0.171 when compared to media literacy, was 0.171 when compared to cervical cancer, and 0.308 when compared to the media-health literacy factor, which means 0≤R2≤1 (Hair, 2017). These results indicate that the media-health literacy construct was a perfect model, and 89% of the diversity in the variations of the media-health literacy variables is significantly explained by the socio-demographic variables as the key factor. This finding of the study had contributed to the redefining of the media literacy theory by Worsnop (2013); the theory stresses that critical thinking is needed to recall the purpose and viewpoint of the messages. The level of education, which is one of the socio-demographic factors, is a significant factor in acquiring critical thinking skills. The above findings would also reshape the prevention program policy which is based on it so that the complexity of the leaflets, brochures, or any health content on cervical cancer could be modified based on the level of education.,Ph.D-
