Data analysis was carried out with the Wilcoxon test and the results showed that there was an effect of scrapbooks as an educational medium on Meal Plan knowledge of pregnant women with anemia with p value = 0.000 (p <0.05). While for consumption level variables there is no influence with anemia (energy p value = 0.133), (protein p value = 0.259), (fat p value = 0.116) and (carbohydrate p value = 0.61). The suggestions and implications of this study indicate that scrapbooks are not only effective in improving the knowledge and behavior of pregnant women related to meal plans, but also have a broad impact in public health practice, policy, and education.
