Abstract: Hypertension is one of the leading causes of death in Indonesia that has been the focus of non-infectious
disease management as the main program in Indonesian Health Program. One of the health development
efforts is the provision of health education as an implementation in behaviour change of poor families against
the prevention of hypertension. The purpose of this study was to analyse the differences in the effectiveness
of family psychoeducation model and family centered empowerment model on the knowledge and attitude of
poor families in preventing hypertension in the family. This study is a quasi-experimental with non-
randomized control group pre-test-post-test design used two intervention groups. Population target were 33
poor families and selected by using purposive sampling. The data were analysed by using Mann-Whitney
Test and used mean value from each group to know the effectiveness. The results showed the mean value of
knowledge (mean = 6.27) and attitude (mean = 4.45) of the family psychoeducation group model was more
than high the mean knowledge value (mean = 5.00) and attitude (mean = 3.63) in the family centered
empowerment model. Family psychoeducation models are more effective in increased knowledge and
changed the attitude of poor families in prevented hypertension in families than family centered empowerment
models.
1 BACKGROUND
Hypertension is one of the leading causes of death in
the world. The prevalence of hypertension is
increasing every year. The results of study by
(KARTIKASARI et al. 2012), show that the
prevalence of hypertension increases with age, the
lower education, unemployment status and high per
capita expenditure. Most cases of hypertension in the
community are not identified. Most of the cases of
unidentified hypertension are among the poor,
including poor people with pre-paid health care
coverage (Penelitian et al. n.d.).
According to the World Health Organization
(WHO) and the International Society of Hypertension
(ISH) in (Efendi & Larasati 2017), there are 600
million people with hypertension worldwide, with 3
million of whom die annually. Seven out of every 10
hypertensive sufferers did not receive adequate
treatment. Basic Health Research Results
(RISKESDAS) in 2013 shows that in non-
communicable diseases data, the prevalence of
hypertension in Indonesia tends to increase to 26.5%
based on measurement (Muhadi 2016). Jember
regency is one of the areas in Indonesia with the
number of hypertension patients ranked first with a
prevalence of 27.4%. The problem of hypertension
problem in Jember Regency until now has not
fulfilled the target of 100%. The lowest coverage in
Jelbuk sub-district is in Sukojember village with
coverage rate of 10.12%. The low coverage outcomes
in Sukojember Village stem from the small number
of poor people's visits with pre-paid health care
coverage to health services of 5.08%.
Increased coverage can be achieved by increasing
the knowledge of the poor. Knowledge of health
issues will affect behavior as a medium-term outcome
of health education (Iqbal & Putra 2017). Health
education is one form of activity which is a health
development strategy to change the behavior of poor

in this study were 33 respondents of poor families in
Sukojember village, Jelbuk sub-district, Jember
regency with purposive sampling. The sample
members in this study were grouped into 3 groups,
groups given intervention family psychoeducation
model, the group given intervention family centered
empowerment model, and the control group.

attitude of poor family in preventing hypertension in
family member using knowledge and attitude
questionnaires. This study piloted in two different
intervention groups. Then each group were tested
with different interventions, namely family
psychoeducation model consisting of 5 sessions, and
family centered empowerment model consisting of 4
sessions. The knowledge aspect questionnaire

Mann Whitney statistic test and mean value from
each intervention group.
3 RESULTS
The result of posttest knowledge found that 7
respondents (63.6%) from intervention group 1
(family psychoeducation model) had high knowledge
about prevention of hypertension in family, and 5
respondents (45.5%) from intervention group 2
(family centered empowerment model ) also had a
high knowledge about prevention of hypertension in
the family. The result of posttest shows that there was
not respondent with low knowledge about prevention
of hypertension in family, either in intervention group
1 (family psychoeducation model) or intervention
group 2 (family centered empowerment model).
Mann Whitney statistical test results on pretest
and posttest values of poor family knowledge about
prevention of hypertension in families of each
intervention group obtained p=0.403 with a
significant level α= 0.05. The conclusions can be
derived from the statistical test is that there was no
difference in the pretest and posttest results between
the intervention group 1 (family psychoeducation
model) and the intervention group 2 (family centered
empowerment model).
The posttest result of attitudes found that 9
respondents (81.8%) of the intervention group 1
(family psychoeducation model) had a good attitude
in preventing hypertension in the family, and 5
respondents (45.5%) from intervention group 2
(family centered empowerment model ) also had a
good attitude in the prevention of hypertension in the

Mann Whitney statistical test results on the pretest
and posttest values of poor families in preventing
hypertension in families of each intervention group,
obtained p value = 0,083 with a significant level of
0.05. This shows that p value is more than the
significant value (0.083> 0.05). The conclusions can
be derived from the statistical test is that there is no
difference in the pretest and posttest results of poor
family attitudes in preventing family hypertension
between the intervention group 1 (family
psychoeducation model) and the intervention group 2
(family centered empowerment model).
Statistical analysis of differences in pretest and
posttest values between the intervention group 1
(family psychoeducation model) and the intervention
group 2 (family centered empowerment model) were
not significantly different. Realistically, however, the
posttest value in each intervention group showed a
significant improvement over the pretest value in
each group. The highest average of the difference of
health education test result to the increase of
knowledge and attitude was the family
psychoeducation intervention model, ie the
knowledge component of 6.27 and the attitude
component of 4.45.

4 DISCUSSION
The result of knowledge test on prevention of family
hypertension in group 1 (family psychoeducation
model) and group 2 (family centered empowerment
model) got the change between before and after given
intervention. This is indicated by the number of
respondents with low knowledge about prevention of
hypertension in the family is reduced. Knowledge of
respondents about prevention of hypertension in the
family between before and after given intervention
experienced a significant difference. This proves that
health education intervention with family
psychoeducation model and family centered
empowerment model effectively improve respondent
knowledge about prevention of hypertension in
family. According to (McBride & Singh 2018) health
education is an effort to convey health messages to
the community, groups, or individuals. The purpose
of message delivery is to improve health knowledge
for the better and expected to affect behavior.
Provision of such intervention in each group are
equally able to improve the knowledge of
respondents. Intervention in the form of health
education with family approach model, namely
family psychoeducation model and family centered
empowerment model have fulfilled the concept of
health education in predisposing factors. According
to (Suerni, T, Keliat, BA, Helena 2013), stated that
health education using family-oriented approach to
make family (caregiver) able to know fulfillment of
their own needs, able to increase understanding about
what to do to the problem with existing resources plus
external support, and improve the ability in decide the
right action to improve the healthy living status of his
family members.
Changes in attitudes of respondents that occurred
can not be separated from the use of appropriate
model of health education. Health education model
can be used as a motivation for the subject to quickly
be able to receive new information, ideas, ideas, and
opinions (Andari 2014). The use of health education
model by taking into account the target characteristics
of family psychoeducation model and family centered
empowerment model, can help the effort to deliver
the message so easily understood and applied by the
family.
The family is a support system capable of
providing full support in an effort to improve the
health status of family members through behavior
change. Family behavior can be changed by
increasing understanding of a health problem.
Increased understanding can be achieved through the
provision of health information with an appropriate
approach model (Wiyati et al. 2010). A good level of
family understanding, will affect the attitudes and
actions of families in efforts to prevent health
problems, so that health problems can be resolved and
there is an increase in health status in the family.

The family psychoeducation model is a form of
health education that uses a family approach model
through a flexible model, because it combines
information-related health issues and ways to cope
with certain situations that can cause a health
problem. The family psychoeducation model focuses
on educating participants, with the aim of participants
being able to perform their health duties
independently (Wulandari et al. 2016). The
implementation of family psychoeducation model is
divided into 5 sessions, ie problem identification
session, concept and treatment education session,
stress management education session, burden
management session, and family empowerment
education session in utilizing health service source
(Mirsepassi et al. 2018).
Family centered empowerment model is a model
of health education with family approach. This model
of health education aims to establish families in
controlling the family's health status by strengthening
the family system (Mohalli et al. 2016). Objectives
after being given health information using this model
of health education, it is hoped the family can
improve or control the health status of the family by
increasing the family's ability to perform the
functions and duties of family health. The
implementation of the family centered empowerment
model is divided into 4 sessions, ie problem
identification session, family ability identification
session, knowledge improvement session, and
evaluation evaluation session (Vahedian-Azimi et al.
2016). The change of knowledge and attitudes of
participants after being given health education is a
success of the learning process in health education
that is influenced by the model used. This is in
accordance with the statement of (Lucksted et al.
2012), that the family psychoeducation health
education model has different information settings
and content from other health education models that
focus on developing participant skills aimed at
preventing family health problems. The explanation
above can be concluded that family psychoeducation
model has a better level of effectiveness than family
centered empowerment model based on test result
difference.
5 CONCLUSIONS
There is a difference of knowledge and attitude of
poor family in preventing hypertension in family
before and after done family psychoeducation model
and family centered empowerment model. Family
psychoeducation family intervention is more
effective to change the behavior of poor family in
preventing hypertension in family based on average
difference of test result.
