Abstract

Background: Jakarta, capital city of Indonesia, had been extremely hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. Public consistence with control measures was important, which was greatly affected by knowledge, attitudes and practices towards COVID-19. This study aimed to investtigate knowledge, attitudes and practices of Jakarta residents for COVID-19.Subjects and Method: This was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design. Sample was gathered online from 221 Jakarta residents, range in age 10 to 60 years, which use self-reported questionnaires consisting of consent, questions about sociodemographics, knowledge, attitudes and practices relevant to COVID-19 and analyzed using t-test and ANOVA. A linear regression analysis was conducted to identify factors associated with knowledge, attitude and practice. Results: Participants showed moderate level of knowledge (mean= 71.20; SD= 8.37), positive attitudes (mean= 53.47; SD= 5.10) and moderate practice (mean= 78.63; SD= 12.73). Results demonstrated that women have better knowledge (mean= 72.1; SD= 9.0; p= 0.360), optimistic attitudes (mean= 55.1; SD = 6.2; p= 0.005) and great practices (mean= 80.1; SD= 11.6; p= 0.316) towards COVID-19 than men. Elderly have better knowledge (mean= 75.6; SD= 5.0; p= 0.001), optimistic attitude (mean= 56.3; SD= 3.8; p= 0.033) and good practices (mean= 82.4; SD= 14.3; p= 0.301) than younger individuals.Conclusion: Directed approaches in health promotion should be integrated for vulnerable populations, such as men, younger people, and low-income earners who would be at greater risk of COVID-19.Keywords: COVID-19, knowledge, attitude, practiceCorrespondence: Andree Kurniawan.

Abstract

Introduction: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a pandemic. Much false information was circulating especially through social media and affected individual’s knowledge, attitude, practice (KAP) towards COVID-19. Currently, there is lack of validated questionnaires to assess KAP about COVID-19 especially in Indonesian young people.Aim: To develop and validate a new COVID-19 KAP questionnaire for young people population in Indonesian language.Methods: Some literature review was done to look for the concept to generate a new questionnaire.  Open-ended questions were generated to know the baseline knowledge. Then, close-ended questions were formulized for knowledge, attitude, and practice area. The experts and several respondents were asked to give their opinions about the contents of the questionnaire. The validity was examined using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. For reliability, internal consistency was examined by using Pearson or Spearmen correlation test.Results: A total of 59 subjects with median ages 21 (16-24) years old of non-medical individuals were included in this validation process. More than half were male, mostly held bachelor’s degree/diploma, and were dominated with students. This Indonesian COVID-19 KAP questionnaire for young people consists of 10 knowledge, 8 attitude, and 7 practice questions. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of knowledge, attitude, and practice areas were 0.87, 0.82, and 0.91, respectively.Conclusions: A questionnaire of KAP towards COVID-19 in Indonesian language had been developed and the results showed good validity.
