Full text linkThe percentage of adolescents who have actively engaged in sexual behavior before marriage is 4.92%. Adolescents living in rural areas are more likely to be exposed to risky behavior than those who live in urban areas. This study aims to identify the factors that influence risky sexual behavior among adolescents in rural areas. This study used a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. Data were collected using in-depth interview techniques on 12 participants consisting of 7 adolescents and 5 parents in rural areas. The samples were selected using a purposive sampling technique. The validity of the data was carried out using source triangulation and peer debriefing. The thematic analysis was carried out using Open code 4.03 software. This study showed that perception is a factor that can influence adolescents to engage in risky sexual behavior. It includes perceptions of risky sexual behavior such as dating, the definition of risky sexual behavior, risk factors, sexual relationships, and sexually transmitted diseases. In addition, adolescents\u27 perceptions of risky sexual behavior in health, psychology, education, and the future are also the factors that influence risky sexual behavior. Apart from the perception, other factors include discomfort feeling at home, sexual experience, the influence of social media, the influence of friends, love from partners, and environmental influences. Based on our results, the better the adolescent\u27s perception of risky sexual behavior is, the lower the risk of adolescents engaging in risky behavior will be
Spatial Analysis of Diarrhea Incidences, Environmental Influences, and Behavioral Factors in An Ecological Study
Full text linkDiarrhea is a global health problem that causes morbidity and death in all age groups. Among the cities in Indonesia, Depok has the second-highest incidence of diarrhea outbreaks. Although previous studies have shown the correlation between diarrhea and environmental and behavioral factors, the spatial analysis of these factors is still very limited. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the spatial analysis of the association between diarrhea incidence and environmental and behavioral factors using an ecological study. The secondary data from the Depok City Health Office were used in the analysis. Our results showed a significant relationship between proper drinking water coverage (p = 0.00; r = -0.289) and healthy latrine coverage (p = 0.02; r = -0.233) with the incidence of diarrhea. Meanwhile, household coverage of Clean and Healthy Behavior (Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat (PHBS)) and population density showed no significant association. Spatial analysis maps also revealed the distribution pattern of diarrhea in Depok City from 2013 to 2021, tending to be more common in areas with low coverage of adequate drinking water. The findings from this study will contribute to optimizing diarrhea control and prevention programs.
