Abstract

Adolescent mental health is a growing public health concern, particularly in school environments where students experience significant academic and social pressures. Limited mental health literacy among adolescents may increase vulnerability to stress, anxiety, and emotional problems, which can adversely affect learning achievement and psychological well-being. This study presents a community-based empowerment approach by utilizing leaflet media as an educational intervention to improve mental health literacy among adolescents. The objective of this study was to analyze the mental health situation of adolescents and to evaluate the effectiveness of leaflet-based mental health education as a community empowerment strategy at SMP Negeri 1 Tapalang. A quasi-experimental method with a one-group pre-test and post-test design was applied. The participants consisted of 30 junior high school students. The intervention involved structured mental health education delivered through leaflet media. Data were collected using a validated knowledge questionnaire and analyzed using statistical software, including the Shapiro–Wilk test for normality and the paired sample t-test for comparison. The findings revealed a significant improvement in students’ mental health knowledge following the intervention. The mean pre-test score increased from 56.40 to 78.90 in the post-test, with a statistically significant result (p < 0.05). These results indicate that leaflet-based education is an effective and practical medium for enhancing adolescent mental health literacy and supporting community empowerment initiatives within the school setting.

Abstract

Tuberkulosis adalah penyakit yang di sebabkan oleh infeksi Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Penyakit ini merupakan penyebab kematian kedua dengan cara menular. Berdasarkan pencatatan petugas Puskesmas Buludoang Kecamatan Bangkala Barat Kabupaten Jeneponto, diketahui terdapat 41 orang yang telah dinyatakan menderita Tuberculosis dari Bulan Januari hingga awal Bulan September tahun 2018. Perencanaan media komunikasi kesehatan membutuhkan analisis komunitas dan kebutuhan, karena setiap wilayah memiliki kebudayaan dan kebiasaan yang berbeda. Ketepatan merancang media memberikan pengaruh bagi kesadaran penderita TB dan masyarakat. Apabila digunakan secara tepat, komunikasi kesehatan dapat mempengaruhi sikap, persepsi, kesadaran, pengetahuan, dan norma sosial yang berpengaruh terhadap perilaku. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan disain fenomenologi. Metode pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode observasi, wawancara mendalam dan diskusi kelompok terarah (DKT). Informan adalah penderita ataupun keluarga penderita TB Paru, serta petugas kesehatan. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara : 1. Observasi partisipasi; 2. Wawancara mendalam; 3. Diskusi Kelompok terarah. Cara pengambilan informan dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Berdasarkan penelitian, diperoleh beberapa hasil sebagai berikut; 1). Masyarakat memahami bahwa TBC adalah penyakit yang menular melalui percikan dahak dan udara,  disertai gejala suhu badan meningkat selama beberapa hari. TBC juga dipercaya mengakibatkan nafsu makan semakin berkurang, turunnya berat badan, susah tidur dan menyebabkan kematian. 2). Kelemahan media saat ini yakni dari segi gambar dianggap menakutkan dan diskriminatif, serta tidak terdistribusi ke tengah masyarakat. 3). Media yang diinginkan informan yakni media elektronik dengan alasan bisa melihat gambar, mendengar suara dan dapat memberikan hiburan.

Abstract

Adolescent mental health literacy remains a major challenge, and practical educational media that can improve both knowledge and attitudes are still needed; this study evaluates a pocketbook as an accessible school-based mental health promotion tool. This study aimed to analyze the effect of pocketbook-based education on high school students’ knowledge and attitudes regarding mental health. A quantitative quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest control group design was conducted from March to April 2026 at State Senior High School 12 Makassar and State Senior High School 13 Makassar. A total of 128 students were recruited using convenience sampling and divided equally into intervention and control groups. The intervention group received mental health education using a pocketbook, while the control group received lecture-based education. Both approaches improved students’ knowledge and attitudes; however, post-intervention comparisons using the Mann–Whitney test demonstrated significant differences between the two groups for both outcomes (p<0.001). The pocketbook offered practical advantages by presenting information in an engaging, portable, and reusable format that supports repeated learning. These findings indicate that pocketbook-based mental health education can complement conventional teaching and may be integrated into classroom learning, school health services, and adolescent health promotion programs.

Abstract

Unsafe household waste management is still an environmental health problem in Indonesia, especially the practice of burning waste which has the potential to cause air pollution and health problems. In Panyangkalang Hamlet, Belabori Village, Parangloe District, Gowa Regency, most of the people still burn garbage as the main method of disposal. This activity aims to increase public knowledge about proper waste management through health counseling. The method used is a pre-experimental design with a one group pre-test post-test approach. The intervention was carried out in the form of counseling for 10–20 minutes to 15 participants, with knowledge measurement using structured questionnaires before and after the counseling. The results showed an increase in knowledge scores from an average of 60.67% in the pre-test to 81.33% in the post-test. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank statistical test showed a significant difference between the score before and after the intervention (p = 0.002). These findings show that health counseling is effective in increasing public knowledge about proper waste management. It is hoped that this increase in knowledge can encourage changes in people's behavior towards safer and more sustainable waste management practices.

Abstract

Handwashing with soap (HWWS) is a fundamental component of Clean and Healthy Living Behavior that plays a crucial role in preventing infectious diseases, particularly among early childhood populations. However, the implementation of proper handwashing behavior in kindergarten-aged children remains limited due to insufficient knowledge, skills, and habitual practices. This community service activity aimed to improve HWWS behavior among children aged 5–6 years through a media-based health empowerment approach at TK Negeri Bonto, Sinjai Tengah District. A participatory health education method was applied, incorporating demonstrations, hands-on practice, and interactive learning using a six-step handwashing puzzle. Behavioral evaluation was conducted using a pre-test and post-test observational design. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in children’s handwashing behavior following the intervention, indicated by an increased proportion of children classified in the good behavior category and the elimination of poor behavior classification. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon test revealed a significant difference between pre- and post-intervention behaviors (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that media-based empowerment interventions are effective in enhancing handwashing behavior among early childhood students and have the potential to support sustainable healthy behavior practices within school settings.
