Abstract

The number of sexual violence against children in Indonesia continues to increase yearly, and most incidents of sexual violence occur in households and nearby places. They are perpetrated by people close to the child. So parents need to understand sex education for early childhood in order to prevent sexual violence experienced in early childhood. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between access to information obtained by parents on an understanding of early childhood sexual education. The method used in this research is descriptive with a quantitative approach. Data collection was carried out by observation, interviews, and questionnaires given to parents of early childhood at the Delima PAUD unit, Bengkulu City. The results showed that 57.78% of parents most often access information through social media, 33.33% through television, 4.44% through books, newspapers, and magazines, and 4.44% through radio. The data processing results using SPSS show a reasonably close relationship between access to information obtained by parents and understanding of early childhood sexual education. The more quality access to information obtained, the better understanding parents will have. The coefficient of determinant shows that access to information obtained by parents explains the understanding of early childhood sexual education by 19.9%, and other variables explain the remaining 80.1%.
