Abstract

Vegetable and fruit consumption among adolescents aged 10–14 years remains very low at 2.3%. Adolescents prefer fast food, often neglecting their need for vegetables and fruits, even though a balanced diet is crucial for their growth and development. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of a Snakes and Ladders game combined with hopscotch in increasing adolescents' knowledge about vegetable and fruit consumption. The research used a quasi-experimental design with a two-group pre-test-post-test approach at SMPN 6 and SMPN 11 in Jambi City, with a sample of 52 respondents in the intervention group and 51 in the control group. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests. The Wilcoxon test showed a significant increase in knowledge in the intervention group (p=0.000), whereas the control group showed no significant change (p=0.257). The results of the Mann-Whitney test also showed no significant difference between the two groups at pre-test (knowledge p=0.628). Still, after the intervention, there was a significant difference in knowledge (p=0.000). The hopscotch, snakes, and ladders game is effective at increasing adolescents' knowledge about vegetable and fruit consumption. This media is recommended for use in health education in schools and healthcare facilities Keywords:  Model,  Snakes and Ladders Media, Hopscotch,  Fruit and Vegetable Consumption,  Adolescents

Abstract

ABSTRACT Acute respiratory infection (ARI) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children under five worldwide. ARI is responsible for nearly 20% of all under-five deaths. ARI remains a public health problem in Indonesia, including in Jambi City. ARI is one of the most frequent reasons for healthcare visits. The prevalence of ARI in Jambi City in 2021 was 16.68%, and in 2022 it was 16.63%. Therefore, this study aims to determine the characteristics of patients with ARI in toddlers seeking treatment at Jambi City public health centers. This study was a descriptive study conducted in Jambi City in 2023. The sample in this study were toddlers who suffered from ARI in July 2023 and who sought treatment at all health centers in Jambi City, namely 316 toddlers—sample withdrawal using a simple random sample. Data were analyzed descriptively using frequency distribution. The results showed that most children under five who suffered from ARI were not exclusively breastfed (65.8%), their fathers smoked (68.9%), were exposed to cigarette smoke (often = 21.2% and rarely = 39.9%), were exposed to other smoke (often = 29.1% and rarely = 44.6%), had inadequate housing density (70.3%), had inadequate room ventilation (53.5%), and used mosquito coils (31%). The study also found that there were household members who smoked in the house (49.1%), had KMS but were not filled in regularly (46.8%), and had non-routine growth monitoring (41.8%). Efforts to prevent and control ARI in children under five still need to be improved. Control efforts on child, parent, and environmental factors must be a concern. Keywords: ARI, Toddlers, Descriptive, Respiratory Disease  ABSTRAK Infeksi saluran pernapasan akut (ISPA) merupakan penyebab utama morbiditas dan mortalitas pada balita di dunia.
