Background: Prostate cancer globally impacts men of African descent disproportionately more than any other ethnicity. Studies focusing on prostate cancer among the U.S. based Nigerian male population, have been limited (Akpuaka, Clarke-Tasker, Nichols-English, Daniel &Akpuaka, 2013). Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the health beliefs and knowledge effects on intentions toward prostate cancer screening among NIM living in the U.S. using select constructs of the Health Belief Model (HBM; Champion, 1999) and Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB; Ajzen, 1991). Design and Sample: This was a quantitative study with a predictive cross-sectional design. Study participants (N= 130) consisted of immigrant Nigerian men, aged 40 years and older, who were recruited from non- profit local associations. Method: Pen and paper data were gathered utilizing the Behavioral Intention Scale (BIS;Ogunsanya, 2014), the modified version of the Champion's Health Belief Model Scale for Prostate Cancer (CHMBS-PCS; Champion,1999), and PROCASE Knowledge Index (PKI; Radosevich et al., 2004), and a seven-item researcher designed demographic form to ascertain participants' characteristics. Results: Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted to evaluate how well Perceived Susceptibility, Benefits, Barriers, and Knowledge predicted intention to screen for prostate cancer. The linear combination was significantly related to Intention (R2 = 0.22, F(3,126) = 12.1, p<0.001. Beta weights indicated that only perceived susceptibility and perceived benefit shared in the 22% of intention's variability. Perceived susceptibility (β = 0.60, p< 0.001) and perceived benefits (β = 0.41, p<0.001) were thus, the variables that significantly made contributions to the model. Conclusion: This study found that immigrant Nigerian men's intention to screen for prostate cancer is predicted by perception of susceptibility and benefits, thus educational programs should focus on susceptibility and benefits among this group. Limitations of the study are discussed.
