Abstract

Use of postpartum contraceptives is critical to the prevention of unwanted pregnancies and enhancing maternal and child health. Yet, husbands’ support for the use of contraceptives is still low based on cultural beliefs and inadequate knowledge. It is important to understand how health belief influences husbands’ readiness in order to improve family planning. This study will analyze the association between health beliefs and husbands’ readiness to support postpartum contraceptive use. A cross-sectional correlational descriptive design was employed with 170 husbands of postpartum women in Samarinda, Indonesia. Consecutive sampling was used, and data were collected using validated tools modeled after the Health Belief Model (HBM) and a scale of a husband’s preparedness. The tools were found to have high reliability, with Cronbach’s alpha values ranging from 0.761 to 0.988. Data analysis included univariate descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rank correlation to quantify the relationship between preparedness and the health beliefs of husbands. Researchers found a significant positive relationship between preparedness and health beliefs of husbands in support of postpartum use of contraceptives (p = 0.01, r = 0.745). The greatest correlation was between perceived susceptibility and concern (r = 0.548, p = 0.00), then self-efficacy and concern (r = 0.534, p = 0.00). Husbands’ health beliefs play a crucial role in their willingness to support postpartum contraceptive use. Anchoring on education programs that reinforce health beliefs will enhance husbands’ participation in family planning.

Abstract

Stunting in children can be caused by direct and indirect factors, such as environmental sanitation factors. Children who live in an unhealthy environment are prone to illness, which will interfere with growth in children and can lead to stunting. This study aims to determine the relationship between environmental sanitation factors (drinking water sources, latrines, waste disposal, garbage disposal, healthy homes, and air pollution) with the incidence of stunting in school-age children at SD Loa Janan Ilir District, Samarinda City. The research method used an analytic survey with a cross-sectional approach, with a sample of 188 respondents, consisting of parents and first graders from 5 elementary schools. The instruments used were microtoise and questionnaires. Data analysis using chi-square. The results showed that the source of drinking water was p = 0.000, the toilet variable was p = 0.000, the waste disposal variable was p 0.020, the garbage disposal variable was p = 0.000, the healthy house variable was p = 0.003 and the air pollution variable was p = 0.000. All variables have a p-value <0.05, so Ho is rejected, meaning that the variable sources of drinking water, latrines, waste disposal, housing conditions, air pollution are all related to the incidence of stunting in school children. Improving environmental sanitation that meets health requirements is crucial to preventing stunting in school-age children.
