Abstract

Pneumonia in children under five years is a health problem in Indonesia related to the high morbidity and mortality. Therefore this study aims to analyze the mother's behavioral factors in the prevention of pneumonia in children with WHO determinants of behavior approach. The samples were 100 mothers taken by using cluster sampling. The independent variables were thought and feeling (knowledge, attitudes, perceptions, and belief) personal references (health workers and posyandu cadres), resources (floor and air ventilation) and cultures. The dependent variable was pneumonia prevention behavior. Data were collected using questionnaires, observation form and analyzed by Spearman’s rho with α=0.05. The result showed a significant correlation between variables thought and feeling: knowledge (p=0.020), attitude (p= 0.005), perception (p=0.007) and belief (p=0.030), resources: house floor and air vents (p=0.006) and cultures (p=0.001) with the prevention behavior of pneumonia, but there’s no correlation between personal reference: health workers and health cadres (p=0.737) with the prevention of pneumonia. Discussion:The factors associated with the mother’s prevention behavior are thought and feeling: knowledge, attitudes, perception, and belief, resources: floor and air ventilation, and cultures. Further research needs to explore more about the personal reference variable.
