A cross-sectional study on 166 participants in Denpasar City with a total of 31 indicators measuring five variables: perceptions of the benefits of rabies control (6 indicators), perceptions of rabies risk (6 indicators), perceptions of obstacles to rabies control (5 indicators), perceptions of the need for technology (7 indicators), and attitudes toward rabies control (7 indicators) were analyzed using partial least square-structural equation modeling. The results revealed that 80.7% of participants owned a dog, and sources of rabies information were from social media (45%), the internet (33.7%), and rabies volunteers (33%). The model explained that perception of the benefits of rabies control and the need for technology had a direct effect on attitudes toward rabies control (p-value <0.001 and 0.015).

In a cross-sectional approach, participants completed a structured questionnaire including demographics, COVID-19 vaccine risk perception, acceptance, and vaccination attitude from April 2-30, 2021. The sample included 1,026 participants from different ethnicities across four regions (Southwest, South, Southeast, and North Central) in Nigeria, which were selected using the convenience sampling method. Multivariate analysis of variance results showed that the COVID-19 vaccine’s risk perception and acceptability have separate and interactive effects on overall vaccination attitudes. Interactively, individuals with high-risk perceptions and low acceptance expressed more skepticism about its benefits, were concerned about its long-term body effects, believed more in its commercialization, and preferred natural immunity. Nigerians’ apprehension about COVID-19 vaccination is impacted by their high-risk perception and low vaccine uptake.","PeriodicalId":43209,"journal":{"name":"Kesmas-National Public Health Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44974163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stunting is a problem in Bireuen Regency, Indonesia, and must be managed because it has long-term impacts on the future generation. According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2017, Indonesia had the third-highest stunting prevalence rate globally, at 32.6%. Even though the stunting prevalence rate in Indonesia decreased from 37.2% in 2013 to 27.7% in 2018, it is still far from the WHO target of not exceeding 20%. Therefore, the government is making efforts to rates s rate e reduce the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia by issuing The Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia’s President Number 72 the Year 2021 about the acceleration of stunting decrease. Based on the result of a nutrition case study of Indonesia in 2021, Aceh’s stunting rate reached 33,18% until it was included among the seven provinces with the highest stunting cases in Indonesia. One of the regencies in Aceh Province that needs immediate solutions to solve stunting is Bireuen Regency. The purpose of this research was to find out the influence of personal hygiene on stunting occurrence. The study used an analytical, quantitative method with a cross-sectional approach.

The sample selection technique in this research was the entire population, namely 62 people. Based on the research conducted in Pandrah Sub District, Bireuen Regency, the research results showed that personal hygiene had a significant influence on stunting occurrence, with a p-value of 0.001 (which is less than the significance level of 0.05).
