Abstract

Introduction: Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) during the first six months of life plays a crucial role in infant survival, growth, and development. However, the global rates of EBF remain below the recommended targets. Pregnant women's classes are designed to provide education, support, and skills necessary for successful breastfeeding practices. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of pregnant women's classes on the success rate of exclusive breastfeeding. Methods: A quasi-experimental design with a posttest-only control group was employed. The study involved 120 pregnant women in their third trimester, selected through purposive sampling from two community health centers. The intervention group (n=60) participated in a structured pregnant women's class, while the control group (n=60) received standard antenatal care without additional courses. Data on breastfeeding practices were collected three months postpartum using structured interviews and analyzed using the Chi-square test and logistic regression. Results: The study found a significantly higher rate of exclusive breastfeeding in the intervention group (78.3%) compared to the control group (53.3%) (p<0.01). Attendance in the pregnant women's class was associated with a 2.9 times higher likelihood of practicing exclusive breastfeeding (OR=2.9; 95% CI: 1.5–5.6). Key factors contributing to success included increased maternal knowledge, self-efficacy, and support from health educators during antenatal. Conclusions: Participation in pregnant women's classes effectively increases the success rate of exclusive breastfeeding. Integrating structured breastfeeding education into routine antenatal care is recommended to improve maternal practices and promote better infant health outcomes.

Abstract

Introduction: Public health education plays an important role in promoting healthy living behaviors and reducing the burden of preventable diseases. However, the effectiveness of various health education programs in consistently changing individual behavior is still a topic of scientific discussion. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of public health education programs in improving healthy living behaviors, such as increased physical activity, healthy diet, smoking cessation, and adherence to preventive health checks. Research Methodology: This systematic review follows the PRISMA guidelines and includes a literature search from PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for studies published between 2010 and 2024. Included studies should evaluate public health education interventions aimed at improving one or more healthy living behaviors in the general population. Data were collected and analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively to assess the impact of the intervention. Results: Of the 3,267 articles identified, 42 studies met the inclusion criteria. The majority of effective programs combine a community-based approach, digital media, and local stakeholder engagement. Overall, there was a significant improvement in healthy living behaviors in the intervention group compared to the control group, with the most pronounced effect on increased fruit and vegetable consumption and increased frequency of physical activity. Conclusion: Public health education programs are generally effective in promoting healthy living behaviors, especially when designed in a participatory manner and based on local contexts. These results support the importance of health policy development that encourages educational interventions as part of a sustainable health promotion strategy

Abstract

Introduction: Adolescence is a critical developmental stage marked by psychological, emotional, and social changes. Anxiety is among the most common mental health issues faced by adolescents and can significantly affect their academic achievement, social relationships, and overall well-being. This study aimed to examine the effect of e-book media on the knowledge level of adolescent girls regarding mental health issues, specifically anxiety. Methods: This research employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The population consisted of adolescent girls enrolled at Madrasah Aliyah Muhammadiyah Salaka, with 62 respondents selected through total sampling. Data collection used a structured questionnaire measuring knowledge about anxiety-related mental health issues. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test through SPSS version 29.0 to compare pretest and posttest scores. Results: The findings revealed a significant improvement in knowledge after the intervention. Before using e-book media, 54.8% of respondents had low knowledge, 40.3% moderate knowledge, and only 4.8% high knowledge. Following the intervention, 74.2% demonstrated high knowledge and 25.8% moderate knowledge, with no respondents remaining in the low knowledge category. Statistical analysis indicated a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05), confirming a significant effect of e-book media in enhancing knowledge. Conclusion: E-book media is proven to be an effective educational tool for increasing adolescent girls’ knowledge about mental health, particularly anxiety. Its accessibility and interactive format make it a valuable medium for promoting adolescent mental health literacy in school settings. Future studies are recommended to expand to larger populations and integrate other digital learning resources.
