Summary:Aim: This research was planned to evaluate the knowledge level and behaviors of parents who have boys between the ages of 0-18 about circumcision. Method: The research is planned descriptively and cross-sectionally. In the study, the data were collected through the socio-demographic data collection form and the Circumcision Information Questionnaire developed by the researchers. Research data were analyzed with the SPSS 22.0 program. Results: 163 parents participated in the study. Participants; 53.4% (n=87) are male and 65.6% (n=107) are university graduates. The mean score of the Circumcision Information Survey of the participants was found to be 10.75±1.51 (min=5, max=13).
