Abstract

The effectiveness of hypertension prevention in communities depends critically on individuals’ knowledge of risk factors and their attitudes toward healthy behaviors. This study examines the relationship between mothers’ knowledge and attitudes toward hypertension prevention behavior in South Polongbangkeng District, Takalar Regency, 2026. An observational analytic quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. A total of 200 mothers were selected as respondents. Data were collected using structured questionnaires assessing knowledge, attitude, and hypertension prevention behavior, then analyzed using chi-square test at a significance level of α = 0.05. Results showed that the majority of respondents had good knowledge (89.0%), good attitudes (91.0%), and good hypertension prevention behavior (77.0%). Statistical tests revealed a significant association between mothers’ knowledge and hypertension prevention behavior (p = 0.000) and between mothers’ attitudes and hypertension prevention behavior (p = 0.000). It is concluded that mothers’ knowledge and attitudes are significantly associated with hypertension prevention behavior. Health workers are recommended to strengthen health education and promotion programs targeting mothers to support hypertension prevention in the community.

Abstract

Women’s reproductive health is a particularly vulnerable aspect of well-being in disaster situations, making maternal preparedness essential for minimizing health risks. This study aims to analyze the relationship between mothers’ knowledge and attitudes toward reproductive health preparedness in disaster situations in East Polongbangkeng District, Takalar Regency, 2026. A quantitative observational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. A total of 117 mothers were recruited as respondents based on established inclusion criteria. Data were collected using validated and reliable questionnaires and analyzed through univariate and bivariate analyses using the chi-square test at a significance level of α = 0.05. Results showed that the majority of respondents had good knowledge (82.1%), good attitudes (94.0%), and good preparedness (78.6%). Statistically significant associations were found between mothers’ knowledge and reproductive health preparedness (p = 0.003), and between mothers’ attitudes and reproductive health preparedness (p = 0.037). It is concluded that better maternal knowledge and attitudes are associated with better reproductive health preparedness in disaster situations. Health centers and healthcare workers are recommended to strengthen community-based reproductive health preparedness education and promotion in disaster-prone areas.
