SPSS 20.0 was used for statistical analysis. Results? The colorectal cancer health belief of blood relatives of patients with hereditary colorectal cancer totaled (3.37±0.35) in which the perception and acceptance levels of screening benefits, health motives and self-efficacy of colorectal cancer were higher, while the perception levels of severity of colorectal cancer, barriers against colorectal screening and susceptibility were lower. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that household income per capita, educational background, with commercial medical insurance or not and the number of blood relatives with cancer were the influencing factors for health belief levels, which accounted for 41.9% of the total variance.
