Abstract

This study aims to provide exposure to hygiene management and healthy eating practices among primary school students. This study is a case study using a psycho-educational approach with 4 cohort counseling sessions. The cohort sample consisted of 13 primary school students aged 7 to 9. They are 1st grade boys and girls in a transit center (tahfiz) in Bandar Baru Bangi. The findings show that group members have a sense of responsibility for personal hygiene and environment as well as knowledge of healthy and clean eating practices for daily living. The findings of the study also found that the psycho-educational approach to group counseling is very effective in helping students improve their awareness of hygiene and healthy eating. The application of good hygiene elements and nutrition practices should be taken into account in order for the child's physical growth to thrive and to achieve academic success while minimizing health problems. The importance of hygiene and healthy eating through psycho education has implications for students, teachers in tahfiz centers and parents. They play a role in educating children on personal hygiene, environment and healthy eating habits as a very effective measure to prevent the risk of attacking diseases that impede children's development.

The design employed in this study was survey method, that centered on convenience sampling method. A total of 489 students from eight undergraduate program of year 1 to year 4 participated in the study. They enrolled in various disciplines ranging from chemical and food science, medicine, engineering, psychology, communication to religious studies program. Data was analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) with all items being grouped within the study’s constructs, which subsequently, were tested using the establishment of measurement model of confirmatory factor analysis. The instrumentation for this study was adapted from Weiner’s Attribution Theory, Expectations and Values Theory. Comparatively, in measuring the students’ coping strategic approach, items were adopted from Greenaway. Additionally, the Counseling Center Assessment of Psychological Symptoms (CCAPS-62) scale was adapted to measure the eight constructs namely anxiety, social anxiety, academic distress, eating anxiety distress, family distress, hostility, and smoking abuse. The Cronbach’s alpha values for all three constructs have indicated the accepted values. Findings revealed that the loading factors for the attitude, coping strategies and psychological constructs are at the accepted values and acceptable composite reliability values. Findings also indicate that the measurement model for the construct attitude, coping strategies and psychological have loading estimates that are statistically significant.
