Based on the theory of Lawrence Green (1980), namely behavioral factors (behavioral causes) and factors outside of behavior (non-behavioral causes). Furthermore, the behavior itself is determined or formed from three factors, namely predisposing factors including age, level of education, parity of pregnant women, employment status, knowledge of pregnant women and attitudes of pregnant women. Enabling factors include family income, distance from residence and information media. Reinforcing factors include husband/family support.
