Abstract

Adolescence is a period of transitional development between childhood and adulthood where adolescents are vulnerable to peer influence in terms of interests, attitudes, appearances, and behaviors. This vulnerability may lead to various issues including reproductive health problems. The incidence of adolescent reproductive health problems such as early pregnancy and childbirth, unsafe abortion, sexually transmitted infections including Human Immunodeficiency Virus, sexual harassment/rape is influenced by factors of knowledge, attitudes, and the role of parents. The purpose of this study was to analyze factors related to reproductive health practices at SMP Negeri 16 Kupang. This research was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 155 adolescents. The study was conducted in August 2020. Data analysis in this study used simple logistic regression analysis. The results found that 52.9% of adolescents had poor reproductive health practices. Reproductive health practice was associated with knowledge (p = 0.000), and the role of parents (p = 0.048) while attitudes (p = 0.948) was found unrelated to the practice. Increasing understanding of the importance of maintaining reproductive health is necessary to help adolescents anticipate the impact of reproductive health problems.

This study described adolescent knowledge and attitudes about unwanted pregnancy. The research method used in this study was descriptive with a quantitative approach. The study was conducted at SMA Negeri 8 in March-April 2021. Teenage girls in grades X and XI of SMAN 8 Kupang were used in this study totaling 323 people. The sample used was 179 people taken by a simple random sampling technique and the Slovin formula. Data was collected using an online questionnaire. The results showed that most respondents had good knowledge about unwanted pregnancy and had a positive attitude towards unwanted pregnancy. Schools should be more selective in receiving and providing information on sexual behavior before marriage and unhealthy dating relationships for students. At the same time, the Kupang City Education Department suggested launching a new policy related to reproductive health education for adolescents.
