<![CDATA[Anemia in pregnant women is a health problem that remains high in Indonesia and can negatively impact the health of both the mother and the fetus. One effort to prevent anemia is through health education. This study aims to determine the effect of booklets on anemia prevention on the knowledge of pregnant women in the Cigeureung Tasikmalaya Community Health Center area. The study used a quantitative method with a One Group Pretest-Posttest design. The sample consisted of 32 pregnant women selected using a purposive sampling technique. The research instrument was a questionnaire consisting of 20 questions about knowledge of anemia prevention. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that before being given education, most respondents had poor knowledge (53.1%), while after education with booklets, the majority had good knowledge (93.8%). The Wilcoxon test showed a p-value = 0.000 (<0.05), which means there is a significant effect of using booklets on increasing pregnant women's knowledge about anemia prevention. Booklets have proven effective as an educational tool because they can be read repeatedly, are easy to understand, and are visually appealing. It is recommended that health workers utilize booklets as an alternative educational medium in an effort to increase knowledge and encourage anemia prevention behavior in pregnant women.]]>
