Analysis of Behavioral Risk of HIV/AIDS Transmission Based on Plan Behavior Theory (TPB) in Adolescents

Abstract

Supervision of students is carried out together with educators and parents because the learning process can reduce juvenile delinquency, including drug abuse and the spread of HIV/AIDS, so with the educational process, some students who have the potential to behave positively will become examples, icons or ambassadors for each other, in school. This research analyzes risk factors for HIV/AIDS transmission in adolescents based on knowledge, attitude, gender, and socio-economic status. The type of research used is observational research with a Cross-Sectional Study design. This type of research is based on collecting and analyzing data in numerical form, namely quantitative research with a sample size of 187 teenage students at SMA Negeri 1 Limboto, Gorontalo Regency, consisting of class 10, class 11th, and 12th grades. Research results show that there is a relationship between knowledge and risk behavior for HIV/AIDS transmission in adolescents (p-value 0.025 < 0.05), there is a relationship between attitude and risk behavior for HIV/AIDS transmission in adolescents (p-value 0.036 < 0, 05), there is a relationship between religious adherence and risk behavior for HIV/AIDS transmission in adolescents (p-value 0.013 < 0.05). The research conclusion is that knowledge, attitudes, and religious observance are related to the risk of HIV/AIDS transmission based on the Plan Behavior theory in adolescents.
