The text related to Table 6 was incorrect and should be as follows:

Table 6 shows the practice rating scale used in measuring good or poor practice of BSE.

The practice score in Table 5 was rated on a 27-point rating scale as shown in Table 6, with a mean score of 16.3.

Scores of 17 and above (53.8%) were rated as poor practice, and scores below 17 (46.3%) indicated good practice of breast self-examination.

It can therefore be concluded that the majority of the respondents exhibited poor practice of BSE.
