BackgroundBack

In August 2013, Hong Kong Cancer Fund commissioned the Public Opinion Programme (POP) at the University of Hong Kong to conduct this “Survey on Male Early Checkup for Prostate and Awareness in Hong Kong”, which targeted at Cantonese-speaking male citizens in Hong Kong aged 40-70. The survey was specifically designed to understand Hong Kong males’ opinion on prostate check-up, as well as their knowledge and attitude on prostate cancer.

The survey questionnaire was designed independently by POP after consulting Hong Kong Cancer Fund, all fieldwork operations, data collection and analysis were also carried out independently by POP, and POP would take full responsibility for all the findings reported herewith. The survey methodology and results are open to the public.
