This study aims to determine the relationship between SSBs consumption and various factor and the dominant factor of SSBs consumption among students of SMAN (State High School) 47 Jakarta in 2022. The cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2021 to June 2022 with 120 respondents. Primary data was taken using questionnaires and analyzed by univariate, bivariate (chi-square test), and multivariate (multiple logistic regression). Univariate analysis shows that 90% of respondents consumed high levels of SSBs. Bivariate analysis shows that pocket money, advertising and media exposure, and availability of SSBs at home have a significant relationship with SSBs consumption. Multivariate analysis shows that the dominant factor associated with SSBs consumption was the availability of SSBs at home. The school is advised to provide education about the impact of high SSBs consumption, provide mineral water refills, and encourage parents to provide healthy drinks at home. The government is advised to use social media for intervention, limiting unhealthy drinks ads, and implementing a policy of SSBs excise tax.]]>
