Abstract

Introduction: Adolescence is a crucial period marked by various physical and psychological changes, including menarche, the first menstruation that often elicits mixed emotional responses. Adequate knowledge about menstruation can help mitigate feelings of fear, anxiety, and confusion, enhancing adolescents' readiness to face this natural developmental stage. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between the level of menstrual knowledge and the readiness to face menarche among female students. Method: A quantitative research design with an analytical survey and cross-sectional approach was applied. The research was conducted in April 2025 with 40 female students from grades IV to VI, selected via accidental sampling. Data collection used a structured questionnaire, and analysis involved univariate and bivariate statistics using the non-parametric Kendall Tau correlation test. Results: The results showed that 47.5% of respondents had good menstrual knowledge, and 95% were considered ready to face menarche. However, statistical analysis yielded a p-value of 0.281 with a significance level of 0.045 (α = 0.05), indicating no significant correlation between menstrual knowledge and readiness to face menarche. Conclusion: Despite most respondents demonstrating good knowledge and readiness, no statistically significant correlation was found. This suggests that other factors may influence menarche readiness beyond menstrual knowledge alone. These findings underscore the need for broader support systems in adolescent reproductive health education

Abstract

Adolescents are an age group that is considered to be at high risk for various risky behaviors in the context of modern social interaction. Risky sexual behavior in adolescents is a phenomenon that is influenced by various interacting factors. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between attitudes and subjective norms towards risky sexual behavior in adolescents. A cross-sectional design was used in this study. The research was conducted in several high schools in Manado City. The research was conducted in March 2025. The population consisted of all students in several high schools in Manado. The sample consisted of 76 people. The sampling technique used probability sampling. The research instrument used a research questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analysis. The results showed a relationship between attitudes (p value: 0.042) and subjective norms (p value: 0.016) with sexual behavior in adolescents. It is recommended that adolescents increase their knowledge. Health workers, teachers, and parents are expected to increase efforts in sexuality and reproductive health education so that adolescents can maintain their social interactions in the community by knowing which behaviors are good and which are not. Keywords: Adolescents, Attitudes, Subjective Norms
