Measurement of information quality on mozita application uses the weighted average model

Abstract

Fulfillment of nutrition for children under five years of age is a factor that needs to be considered in maintaining children’s health because in infancy it is a period of development that is vulnerable to nutritional status. Based on data from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia in 2015 shows that the number of malnutrition is still high, as many as 185 in each province, and it is estimated that there are still around 12 million that have not been reported. The main problem with the high number of malnutrition status lies in the weakness of the recording and reporting process so that the government cannot have information that can be used to conduct early detection of the incidence of malnutrition. The weak process of recording nutritional status is caused by the lack of available instruments that can be used for the recording and reporting process. Based on the above problems, the Mozita application was used to process the recording and reporting of under-five nutritional status based on anthropometry tables. The Mozita application guarantees the accuracy, speed, and convenience in terms of knowing the early growth of toddlers. This study focused on measuring the quality of information on the Mozita application, which includes aspects of accuracy, timeliness, suitability, completeness, and ease of use. Measuring the quality of information is done by using questionnaires distributed to respondents (midwives), then for further analysis using the weighted average pre and post. The results of descriptive data analysis showed that the overall weighted average value of information quality pre Mozita application development was 1.01 and the post was 2.78. Pre and post value is the value of information quality which includes aspects of accuracy, timeliness, suitability, completeness, and ease of use. Comparison between pre and post values has increased by 1.77. An increase in the value of 0.63 can be interpreted that there is a positive influence on the quality of Mozita application information on aspects of accuracy, timeliness, suitability, completeness, and ease of use.
