- Abstract
Increased DHF cases related to environmental sanitation, including the availability of breeding places for Aedes mosquitoes. Mosquito breeding places are formed because of low public awareness in eradicating Aedes mosquito nests. The objective of this study is to analyze the influence of knowledge, attitudes, availability of material and tools and sources of information on people’s behavior in eradicating mosquito nests (PSN). Cross sectional research design and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis method approach are used in this study. The urban observation unit is the Kemayoran sub-district, Central Jakarta City and the rural area is the Kresek sub-district, Tangerang Regency. The study was conducted in July 2018 – March 2019. The number of respondents in each observation unit location was 100 respondents aged ≥ 17 years. Sampling was collected by incidental sampling. The analysis shows that a) increased knowledge can improve PSN behavior in Kresek (t-value = 4.68), b) respondent’s attitude has no effect on PSN behavior both in Kemayoran and Kresek, c) availability of tools can improve PSN behavior in Kemayoran (t-value = 2.31), and d) the source of information has a negative effect on PSN behavior in Kresek (t-value = −3.32).
