Abstract

The 2018 Indonesia Basic Health Research reported that 80.5% of individuals engaged in indoor smoking. Indoor smoking poses significant health risks, notably to pregnant women and their fetuses, with one potential consequence being stunting. Pregnant women, while at risk from cigarette smoke, also play a crucial role in preventing indoor smoking to mitigate stunting risks. This study aims to explore the participation of pregnant women in supporting their partners' efforts to quit smoking, utilizing the health belief model as a framework.This was observational research with a cross-sectional design. Purposive sampling was utilized for 343 respondents, with inclusion criteria for pregnant women with smoking partners. The study applied the health belief model, examining socio-demographic factors, perceived threats (severity and susceptibility), expectations (benefits, barriers, and self-efficacy), and cues to action. Path analysis was employed for data interpretation.The findings indicate a negative significant relationship between the socio-demographic construct and perceived threats. Similarly, socio-demographic factors are significantly related to expectations in a negative manner. A positive significant relationship was observed between perceived threats and the participation of pregnant women. However, expectations did not exhibit a significant direct impact on the participation of pregnant women. Conversely, cues to action demonstrated a positively significant relationship with pregnant women's participation.

Abstract

Background : The use of polluted river water for household purposes is still frequently found in various regions of Indonesia. Objective : This narrative review aims to explore community perceptions regarding the meaning of health and sickness in relation to the practice of using river wate Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : The literature review indicates that communities develop unique perceptions of water quality based on sensory indicators (color, smell) and direct experience, rather than microbiological parameters. Results : The concept of 'sickness' tends to be defined functionally as a condition that disrupts daily activities, while mild illnesses like diarrhea and skin rashes are often normalized. Socio-cultural, economic factors, and limited knowledge shape these perceptions and create a cycle of dependency on river water. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : It is concluded that there is a gap between scientific health definitions and community perceptions, therefore public health interventions need to consider participatory approaches that understand the construction of health-sickness meanings at the community level.
