Abstract

Victims of sexual violence are predominantly children. This is due to a lack of understanding of the boundaries of "appropriate touch" on the body. An age- and culturally-appropriate measurement tool is needed to support their self-protection education efforts. This tool will assess children's readiness to identify and respond to suspicious touch. The purpose of this study was to design and test a questionnaire that serves as a measure of knowledge, affective and psychomotor expressions of children aged 5 to 8 years. This questionnaire is also useful as a medium for educating children to avoid sexual violence. This study used an exploratory mixed-method design. Content validity was assessed by three experts, face validity was assessed through observation of 13 children. Item-total correlation analysis and Cronbach's Alpha were used to assess reliability and empirical validity on 62 students from three schools. Results showed that all 28 items were valid by experts (I-CVI and S-CVI/Ave=1.00), and all had r values greater than 0.246. Cronbach's Alpha values were highly reliable for the self-protection section (0.983) and the expression of affection section (0.974). Therefore, this questionnaire can be used by parents, health workers, and teachers, to measure and educate children to prevent sexual violence.

Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women in Indonesia and continues to show an increasing incidence rate each year. Breast Self-Examination (SADARI) is a simple yet effective early detection method to identify abnormalities in the breast. The low level of knowledge and awareness among women of reproductive age regarding the importance of SADARI contributes to delayed diagnosis. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of women of reproductive age, particularly Posyandu cadres, through health education on SADARI in Jayaraga Village, Tarogong Kidul Subdistrict, Garut. The counseling was conducted through presentations, interactive discussions, and the distribution of educational leaflets. Evaluation results showed an increase in participants’ understanding of the importance of early breast cancer detection through SADARI. Therefore, this initiative is expected to serve as a sustainable preventive effort to reduce breast cancer incidence in the community.
