Abstract

Background: Cervical cancer remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality among women, particularly in developing countries. Although early detection methods such as visual inspection with acetic acid (IVA) and Pap smear are effective, participation among women of reproductive age is still low. Identifying factors that influence women’s interest in cervical cancer screening is essential to strengthen prevention programs at the primary healthcare level. Method:  This study used a quantitative analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The research was conducted in the working area of UPT Puskesmas Rawat Inap Ome Tidore. Participants were women of reproductive age (15–49 years) selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire assessing socio-demographic characteristics, knowledge, attitudes, access to health information, family or husband support, and interest in early detection of cervical cancer. Data analysis included univariate and bivariate analysis using Chi-square or Fisher’s exact tests. Results: The results showed that age, education level, knowledge, attitudes, access to health information, and family or husband support were significantly associated with women’s interest in early detection of cervical cancer. Women aged 25–49 years, those with higher education, good knowledge, positive attitudes, adequate access to information, and strong family support demonstrated higher interest in screening. Fear, embarrassment, lack of time, and misconceptions were identified as common barriers. Conclusion: Women’s interest in cervical cancer early detection is influenced by predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing factors. Strengthening health education, improving information access, and involving family support are key to increasing screening participation.

Abstract

Child sexual violence remains an urgent problem in Indonesia, exacerbated by cultural taboos and limited access to effective sex education for young children. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of sexuality education using audio-visual media in improving knowledge and self-protection skills among preschoolers aged 4–5 years at TK Muslimat NU 5 Irama, Malang. Employing a quantitative, pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design, the research involved 48 students selected through simple random sampling. Data collection utilized structured interviews and observation checklists, analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The results revealed a significant improvement: the proportion of children with poor knowledge and skills declined sharply, while those in “good” and “very good” categories increased substantially after the intervention (p < 0.05). These findings demonstrate that audio-visual media can effectively convey essential concepts about body safety and appropriate touch, overcoming barriers associated with traditional or text-based methods. The study concludes that integrating interactive, age-appropriate media into early childhood education enhances both cognitive and practical domains of sexuality education. The research supports broader implementation of innovative, media-based strategies in preschool and midwifery settings to promote child protection and abuse prevention. Future studies are recommended to explore longitudinal effects, parental involvement, and scalability across diverse educational contexts.
