Introduction: Colorectal cancer screening program compliance in Turkey is around 20-30%. Factors that may affect preventive health behavior, mainly individuals' values, beliefs and attitudes, should be explored. A "Health Belief Model" (HBM) scale was developed in 1950 to explain the insufficient participation of some individuals in screening programs.

The experiment was conducted by continuously injecting a Tc solution into a column packed with eight layers (i.e.

Numerical simulations require a detailed representation of the field, synthesized to interpolate between available data. Several recent studies introduced high resolution data (HRK) at the Macro Dispersion Experiment (MADE) site, and used ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to delineate the main structural features of the aquifer.
