<![CDATA[Every child has the basic right to grow and develop optimally, including obtaining immunization services as an effort to prevent infectious diseases according to applicable regulations. This study aimed to analyze the effect of maternal knowledge and family support on the achievement of basic immunization in infants under 12 months old in Balokang Village, Banjar City, West Java. This study used a correlational design with a causal approach, and involved 115 mothers with infants aged <12 months as the population, who were selected through a simple random sampling technique. The results of the analysis using the regression test showed that maternal knowledge had a significant influence on the achievement of basic immunization (p-value < 0.05), while family support did not show a significant influence (p-value > 0.05). It can be concluded that maternal knowledge plays an important role in the success of basic immunization in infants, while family support has not been shown to have a direct effect. Therefore, improving maternal education is a strategic focus in immunization programs at the community level.]]>
