Abstract

Health-seeking behavior is an important behavior in improving community health status and is influenced by various factors. This study aimed to analyze the effects of social, economic, cultural, healthcare accessibility, knowledge, family support, and individual characteristics on health-seeking behavior among the community in Caringin District, Bogor Regency. This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design involving 398 respondents selected through multistage random sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the Pearson Chi-Square test and multiple linear regression. The bivariate analysis showed that social, economic, cultural, healthcare accessibility, knowledge, family support, and age were significantly associated with health-seeking behavior (p < 0.05), whereas gender (p = 0.358) and education (p = 0.464) were not significantly associated. The multivariate analysis showed that the seven variables simultaneously had a significant effect on health-seeking behavior (F = 177.691; p = 0.000), with an Adjusted R Square of 0.757. Social factors were the most dominant factor, with the highest Standardized Beta value (β = 0.386). These findings indicate the need to improve health-seeking behavior through family- and community-based health education, empowerment of health cadres and community leaders, improvement of health literacy, and reduction of economic and healthcare access barriers.
