Assessment of the Existing School Health Promotion Program in a Selected Educ...AnuragSingh1049
The health promotion school program was designed to promote the wellbeing of school students. This concept was introduced during the 1980s by the World Health Organization (WHO). In Sri Lanka; it was initiated and implemented in 2008 targeting all government schools. The aim of the study was to assess the existing school health promotion program. The cross-sectional study was implemented in May 2018 with all secondary schools in a selected education zone in Sri Lanka which represent three types of schools, 1AB, 1C and type 2. The study participants were students and teachers. The newly developed tool (Health Promoting School Assessment Tool) was used to assess the existing school health promotion program under six main criteria. The nominal group technique was followed to fill the assessment tool designed in the study where a team of teachers and a team of students separately took part in the assessment. The findings of the study show that the existing health promotion school program is partially unsuccessful in the selected educational zone. The existing situation of the school health promotion program, according to the main six criteria of the Health Promotion School Assessment Tool, was not at a satisfactory level of the implementation (38.2%). Only three schools (N=23) scored more than 50% while other schools (n=20, N=23) were scored less than 50%. According to the assessment, for each group of an individual school, there was a difference between teachers’ assessment and students’ assessment of the overall health promotion program. It is important to conduct continuous monitoring and have an evaluation plan for the school health promotion program to acquire effective changes in school settings.

This study assessed the use, utility, and impact of two transition interventions - the Youth KIT organizational tool and an online transition mentor - for 50 youth with chronic health conditions transitioning to adult healthcare over 4 years. Most youth used the medical section of the Youth KIT and some engaged with the online mentor. Perceived utility of the interventions was modest. Youth set goals in multiple life domains and goal achievement increased over time. However, the quantitative and qualitative evidence showed the interventions alone were insufficient for empowering youth in transition. Tailored, integrated supports involving both pediatric and adult healthcare systems are needed.
Background: Adolescent is one of the most rapid phases of human development. Anemia is a deficiency in the number of RBC in your body. RBC carry oxygen around your body using a particular protein called hemoglobin. Normal hemoglobin level in adolescent girls 13-15 g/dl. According to WHO, the hemoglobin level 10- 11.9 g/dl is considered mild anemia, 7-9 g/dl is considered moderate, and less than 7 g/dl is called severe anemia. Methods: The present study is pre-experimental among 60 adolescent girls, using a disproportional stratified random technique. One experimental group of clients was selected without randomization and no control group was used. The data was collected by using the structured close-ended knowledge questionnaire. The data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics regarding mean, frequency distribution, percentage, paired table t-test and chi-square test. Results: The overall findings reveal that the post-test knowledge mean score 26.24% with SD±5.94, which was 72% of the total score was more when compared to the pre-test knowledge mean score 12.98 with SD 5.94, which was 36.83% of total score. The calculated t-value of 24.91 was much higher than the table t-value 1.96 for the hypothesis. Conclusion: The study provides that VATP on knowledge regarding the preparation and use of moringa juice in managing anemia among adolescent girls was the scientific, logical and cost-effective strategy.

Community Movement for Healthy Living (GERMAS) is a government program that promotes healthy living in Indonesia. This study seeks to investigate the perspective of primary care health professionals on the development of GERMAS tools in order to facilitate the transformation of health services. The research utilized a qualitative design and Rapid Assessment Procedures approach, collecting data through focus group discussions in Sleman Regency in 2023. Futher we analyze GERMAS activities, strengths and weaknesses, instrument development, and challenges. Result showed that according to health worker perspectives the implementation of Germas is crucial for improving public health in communities. However, barriers include limited funding, uneven distribution of efforts, and lack of role models. Digital literacy is needed to address these issues, including knowledge, disease history, prevention, and access to consultations with health providers. This literacy should be accessible, easy to understand, and small in size to avoid consuming large storage device data. So we conclude that health provider need a comprehensive GERMAS tool to support and controlling the implementation of GERMAS to increase health prevention and promotion.

Antimicrobial resistance poses a growing threat to public health, as infections from resistant strains of microbial become increasingly difficult and expensive to treat, resulting in prolonged illness and greater risk of death. A cross-sectional descriptive study was done among 471 higher secondary level students of private schools in Kathmandu Valley. Data were collected from Grade 11 and 12 non-science faculty students through self-administered questionnaires. Half (50.5%) of the students gave correct response by saying that antibiotic kills bacteria and 49.1% said that it is for fever. Majority (93.0%) of them said that it should be taken with water. Regarding the response on when to stop taking antibiotic, 46.9% said correctly by saying when all prescribed medicines are taken whereas and 40.8% said that after feeling better. More than half (58.8%) of the students had not heard about antibiotic resistance, whereas those who have heard among them 24% of students said that they had heard from doctor and nurses and 21.8% from family member and friends. Nearly one-third (32.7%) of students knew that antibiotic resistance occurs using antibiotic when they are not necessary. Regarding the response on consequences of antibiotic resistance, more than one-third (38.2%) of students gave correct answer. Nearly half of the students have lack of knowledge about antibiotic. Thus, it is imperative to create awareness among students by introducing a specific course on antibiotic in the 9th and 10th grade core curriculum to prevent antibiotic resistance and its consequences.

The health promotion school program was designed to promote the wellbeing of school students. This concept was introduced during the 1980s by the World Health Organization (WHO). In Sri Lanka; it was initiated and implemented in 2008 targeting all government schools. The aim of the study was to assess the existing school health promotion program. The cross-sectional study was implemented in May 2018 with all secondary schools in a selected education zone in Sri Lanka which represent three types of schools, 1AB, 1C and type 2. The study participants were students and teachers. The newly developed tool (Health Promoting School Assessment Tool) was used to assess the existing school health promotion program under six main criteria. The nominal group technique was followed to fill the assessment tool designed in the study where a team of teachers and a team of students separately took part in the assessment. The findings of the study show that the existing health promotion school program is partially unsuccessful in the selected educational zone. The existing situation of the school health promotion program, according to the main six criteria of the Health Promotion School Assessment Tool, was not at a satisfactory level of the implementation (38.2%). Only three schools (N=23) scored more than 50% while other schools (n=20, N=23) were scored less than 50%. According to the assessment, for each group of an individual school, there was a difference between teachers’ assessment and students’ assessment of the overall health promotion program. It is important to conduct continuous monitoring and have an evaluation plan for the school health promotion program to acquire effective changes in school settings.

By generating pertinent indicators, Human Resource Analytics (HRA) can provide HR personnel with a broader perspective on their contribution to the organization's financial objectives. There is a scarcity of research, however, regarding the impact of HRA on business outcomes, specifically in the context of organisations based in India and Vietnam. Within this particular framework, the current study investigates the impact of HRA big data capabilities on business outcomes. The study also investigates the discrepancy between the actual and perceived levels of big data expertise possessed by human resources analysts in Indian and Vietnamese organisations. The current study constructs a conceptual framework in order to examine the hypotheses formulated for assessing the interconnections between the variables being investigated. Utilising the Capability, Motivation, and Opportunity (CMO) framework, it accomplishes this. The data were collected using a quantitative approach, which entailed integrating the various components of HRA expertise and assessing their influence on business outcomes through the utilisation of big data. A systematic questionnaire was developed and distributed to 230 human resources professionals employed by various organisations located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and Hyderabad, India. In addition to HR administrators, users of HRAs comprised the participants. A variety of statistical methods were applied to the data to assess the disparity between HRA's anticipated and realised big data capabilities, as well as the impact of HRA on business outcomes. It appears, based on the data that offering incentives and opportunities to employees with HR analytical skills could result in enhanced performance for the organisation. Research has demonstrated that providing opportunities and incentives to skilled employees is crucial for encouraging the development of their analytical abilities. Possessing these types of analytical abilities significantly influences the outcomes of an organisation.

Introduction: The prevalence of depression and its correlates in Bangladeshi rural university students have been rarely investigated. We draw a literature review, a cross-sectional study and analysis of the rural students’ depression natures and mechanisms that influence their academic performance and health and well-being. Methods: A cross-sectional research was conducted during the period august 2019 to January 2020 in a university. We employed Beck Depression Inventory scale to collect data from 200 undergraduate and graduate students. Data were analysed using chi-square association test and ordinal logistic regression. Results: We discovered that mild to severe depression affected 60% of rural students [mild (16%), borderline (10%), moderate (12%), severe (11.5%), and extreme (10.5%)]. Family expectations, smoking, bad academic achievement, inability to enroll in a particular program, and inadequate household finances were significant risk factors for depression. When it comes to depression, male students scored noticeably higher than female pupils. The decreased depression was linked to both strong household economics and intellectual achievement. Conclusions: The intricate interactions among the risk factors influence the character and processes of depression in rural students.
IMPACT OF PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT ON SUCCESSION PLANNINGindexPub
Motivation: HR in an organization faces various challenges in business environment, such as Building Capabilities, Improving Productivity, Building Performance Culture, Talent Management, Succession Planning for Key Leadership and Critical Roles, Developing Accountability and Ownership, Human Capital Management and transforming HR function into developmental Role from the legacy driven HR, etc. Succession Planning is the process of identifying and developing individuals, who have potential to hold the key leadership position in an Organization, whereas Performance Management includes assessing and improving upon the performance of an employee to meet the organizational goals. There are several Management Practices, which are adopted widely in Industry to make a successful Succession Planning. Workforce and Talent Management is one of them. The health of an organization majorly depends on the proper placement of people, which is a combined outcome of Talent Identification, Talent Development and Talent Retention. Performance Management plays a vital role in Talent Identification. It also has an impact on Talent Development and Talent Retention. The key idea of succession planning suggests that the right person to be placed at the right position at the right time. Succession planning is becoming a challenge these days in the corporate world. Organizations are often not found prepared with their successors to occupy the key positions as and when required. The positions are either kept vacant for a substantial period or more than one role is assigned to a single person. Identifying the right talent for the key positions from outside the organization and recruiting them is a much more difficult task at the eleventh hour. This has a significant impact on organizational health and in turn to organizational sustainability. Organizations must last longer than people. Role of organization continues even when the people move out. Employees must superannuate after attaining a certain age. Also, organizations must have a contingency plan for sudden vacancy arises out of attrition, health hazards and death of employee. Succession planning is the strategy to ensure that a suitable person is made available during exigencies. Employees are developed for taking on higher responsibilities and for the new roles that may emerge in future. The placement of Key Leadership positions can be executed either by inviting the talent from outside or developing the talent in-house. The latter is always in demand keeping in view the core values of the organization and the impact on loyalty and organizational culture in a long run. It is preferable to develop the in-house talent pool to reduce dependency on recruitment of experienced people from outside for the critical roles. It brings the talent acquisition cost low and contributes as a motivating factor for the team as well. The acceptability of a person placed at Top / Key Leadership Positions is high when these are occupied

A SOCIAL CAPITAL APPROACH TO ENTREPRENEURIAL ECOSYSTEM AND INNOVATION: CASE S...indexPub
Despite being recognised as drivers of innovative development, Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs) frequently confront resource limitations. Therefore, enhancing the ecosystem is contingent on the entrepreneurs’ social capital, which is crucial for the success of MSMEs. This study applies the social capital approach to analyse the entrepreneurial ecosystem enrichment and its impact on the innovation process of cosmetics MSMEs. The qualitative case study of six cosmetic manufacturing MSMEs explores that social capital is a multifaceted asset to MSMEs. Through an in-depth thematic analysis of three dimensions of social capital (structural, relational, and cognitive), this study states that the innovation process is supported by the synergistic transformation of one dimension of social capital into another. Entrepreneurs sharing the common norms, rules, and language enrich their cognitive as well as relational aspects of ecosystem. The study suggests that as network ties, trust, and norms collectively influence innovation in firms, hence, social capital needs to be studied with its contextualization in the ecosystem.

LEVELS OF DEPRESSION AND SELF-ESTEEM IN STUDENTSindexPub
Introduction: among the most worrying problems in recent years are low self-esteem, family and friends problems, anxiety, stress, and depression, which are taking on alarming proportions in students and young people in general. Purpose: the study is a prediction, which focuses on analyzing and evaluating students' self-esteem and level of depression. Methodology: the population is 332 students (13-15 years old) in high schools in the Gjakova region. The study describes the analysis, classification, and evaluation of the collected data by doing the analysis and real examination of the findings. Results: in terms of gender there is no significant difference in self-esteem, while in depression there is a significant difference. The level of depression is higher in women (11.9) than in men (9.5). Economic status shows that students with employed fathers have lower depression (6.77) compared to those with unemployed fathers (10.80). Conclusions: The level of depression and self-esteem and parental reflection affect students. A link has been found between economic status and emotional problems and student behavior. To prevent it, the psychological service in schools should function, and together with families and the community should be as close as possible to the problems of students.
THE IMPACT OF SOCIAL FACTORS ON INDIVIDUALS DIAGNOSED WITH SCHIZOPHRENIAindexPub
The society with diverse structural and ideological influences, assumes its role in relation to behavior, attitude, belief and relations. The impact can be seen in every society globally, however the western nations have adjusted their social policies to suit these transformations, whereas nations in developing phase have failed to establish suitable systems. In Kosovo, the allocation of funds for mental health services remains insufficient, even though mental health disorders account for 12.3% of overall illnesses and 30.8% of work incapacities! The objective of this study is to examine the impact of society on the decline and recovery of individuals with schizophrenia. The study employs both qualitative and quantitative methods to provide a descriptive-analytical. A study was conducted in four municipalities of Kosovo, using individuals with schizophrenia from psychiatric institutions as subjects along with their caregivers/family members . The research found that social factors greatly contribute to the worsening of schizophrenia patients' condition. The presence of schizophrenia is evident through a higher likelihood of having a low level of education, high unemployment rates, and engaging in harmful behaviors like tobacco and alcohol use, as well as physical inactivity. Significant correlations have been observed in the subscales of positive and negative symptoms using the Self-Report PNS-Q questionnaires. It is crucial for individuals with schizophrenia to have a carefully designed strategy in place, developed in partnership with professionals from various relevant fields such as social protection, psychiatric medical services, education, and social integration plans.

INNOVATIVE DESIGN FOR KIDS MASTERY IMPROVEMENT OF LANGUAGE FEATURES IN A STORYindexPub
One of the hardest things for people learning English as a third language is still reading and writing. Because they are still not good enough at language features, they often make big mistakes and assumptions that aren't true. To make learning more fun and useful, visual symbols were made for seven different kinds of language traits. It looks at the Vipicoll form a lot. Visual Symbols media, Picture and picture, and the Collaborative approach are all creatively put together in Vipicoll. This research used Reeve's design method. Research develops Vipicoll learning model, employing interviews, literature reviews, and questionnaires for iterative improvement and validation. Researchers identify problems, create Vipicoll, iteratively refine through trials, forming an effective English Language Education model. Study assesses individual English thinking development, emphasizing interpretive framework, relation, function, and unique visual symbols. From this research, it was found that using Vipicoll really helps improve kids' mastery of language features, especially those in a story. This is proven by the fact that after implementation, kids' correct answers when asked directly by their teachers and their written test answers increased greatly even though many direct answers and test answers used to be wrong and they often didn't understand.
CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE DETECTION USING MACHINE LEARNING AND RISK CLASSIFICATI...indexPub
The global prevalence of heart disease indicates a major public health issue. It causes shortness of breath, weakness, and swollen ankles. Early heart disease diagnosis is difficult with current approaches. Hence, a better heart disease detection tool is needed. Treatment requires more than just diagnosis. Risk classification is critical for accurate diagnosis and treatment. In this analysis, a novel cardiovascular disease (CVD) detection paradigm using machine learning (ML) and risk classification based on a weighted fuzzy system is proposed. The system is developed based on ML algorithms such as artificial neural network (ANN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and uses standard feature selection techniques knowns as Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Furthermore, the cross-validation method has been used for learning the best practices of model assessment and for hyperparameter tuning. The accuracy-based performance measuring metrics are used for the assessment of the performances of the classifiers. Finally, the outcomes revealed that the proposed model achieved an accuracy of 94.01% which is higher than another conventional model developed in this domain. Additionally, the proposed system can easily be implemented in healthcare for the identification of heart disease.
ANALYSIS OF FLOW CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BLOOD THROUGH CURVED ARTERY WITH MIL...indexPub
Narrowing of the arteries caused by atherosclerosis reduces blood flow to the heart, which results shows ischemia, angina pectoris, cerebral strokes, and other coronary artery disease signs and symptoms. Curvature is seen in blood vessels at various locations. The stenotic surface provides an additional curvature and the point of maximum shear which varies with the cross-section. A cylindrical form of the Navier-Stokes equations in polar coordinate system have been extended to include dynamic curvature along the axial direction. The blood flow behavior of taking different values of blood parameters like viscosity, the radius of the artery, and the thickness of the stenosis has been studied with and without curvature by using an extended blood flow model with dynamic curvature. Moreover, the aspects of blood flow, such as dynamic curvature velocity profile, volumetric flow rate, pressure drop, and shear stress, have been studied in relation to blood flow around curved arteries with stenosis, variations in the radii of the artery, thickness of the stenosis, and viscosity. The information may reveal that by increasing the values of curvature, viscosity, and thickness of stenosis, velocity, and volumetric flow rate can be quickly reduced. Increasing the curvature, viscosity, and thickness of stenosis also results in an increase in shear stress and a pressure drop. The presence of curved stenotic arteries has a significant impact on the flow parameters, and it is crucial to know about these dynamics in order to study the cardiovascular system.

This study was conducted to identify the influence of computer technology in blended learning on the achievement in the Principles of Accounting subject through of self-directed learning. The research also assessed the relationship of the elements of blended learning on student achievement. Despite the encouragement by the Ministry of Education for the use of Computer Technology In Education, there is a lack of research on a measurable and testable model of the influence of computer technology. In reality, various aspects such as schools, teachers, content, and technology exist to provide and utilize computer technology through learning in Malaysia. A quantitative study using a correlational design was conducted on 400 Form Four students in secondary schools in the Southern Zone of Malaysia, namely in the states of Johor, Melaka, and Negeri Sembilan, to identify the influence of computer technology in blended learning on achievement. Data were collected using adapted and modified questionnaires from previous studies. Descriptive data analysis was performed using SPSS version 28, while inferential analysis was conducted using the Smart PLS analysis technique. Smart PLS version 4.0 software was utilized to test the mediator relationships in the study. The results of the study showed high minimum scores for blended learning through computer technology and self-directed learning, as well as achievement. The influence of blended learning elements also had a significant relationship with student achievement in the Principles of Accounting subject. This study is expected to contribute to the effectiveness of blended learning through information technology on the achievement in the Principles of Accounting subject by enhancing self- directed learning among students. The development of this conceptual model is hoped to serve as a guide for policymakers, the Ministry of Education, teachers, students, and other stakeholders in ensuring that blended learning practices can be implemented more effectively. Furthermore, it is hoped that the achievement and interest in the Principles of Accounting subject can be improved by applying computer technology in learning.
Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...Leonel Morgado
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.
The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

Abstract
Adolescent anemia is a global health problem. The ability of adolescents to prevent and treat anemia
is directly related to the knowledge and attitudes they possess. This was to determine the effectiveness
of education using websites and WhatsApp to increase the knowledge and attitudes of adolescents
regarding anemia. This was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest with control group
design. The research was conducted in March and April 2023 in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The
intervention was a website and WhatsApp education, while the outcome were knowledge and attitude
measured at baseline and end line. The study sample was 61 experimental group student and 44
control groups determined by multistage sampling. The data were analyzed using Wilcoxon and Mann-
Whitney tests using SPSS. The results showed that knowledge and attitude of adolescents both in the
website and WhatsApp groups increased; knowledge scores in the website group baseline and end line
were 90.87 and 95.4, respectively, with a change of 5,1%. While in the WhatsApp group, there were
85.6 and 94.8, with a change of 10.7%. The average pre-test and post-test attitude scores in the
website group were 63.8 and 69.3 with a change of 8.6%, while in the WhatsApp group they were 83.3
and 89.1 with a change of 40.6%. The results showed that the increase in knowledge and attitudes in
the WhatsApp group was significant: 1.02 (1.00–1.84) and 1.07 (91.01-0.96), respectively. As a
conclusion, WhatsApp is more effective in increasing knowledge and attitude compared to website
education.

1. INTRODUCTION
Iron deficiency is the most current study from the Global Burden of children and adolescents[1], it was
discovered that anemia is the top ten global leading causes of disability-adjusted life years. According
to WHO, anemia affects around 40% of children between the ages of 6 and 59 months, 37% of
pregnant women, and 30% of women between the ages of 15 and 49 years[2]. The prevalence of

female adolescent anemia between the ages of 15 and 24 years old was measured in surveys
conducted in Indonesia in 2013 and 2018, and the results showed a rise from 18.4% in 2023 [3] to 32%
in 2018[4]. In Yogyakarta, the prevalence of female adolescent anemia actually increased from 37.1%
in 2013[3] to 48.9% in 2018[4], with the largest proportion of anemia in the group of 15-24 years and
25-34 years. Based on a survey in 2016 targeting 1500 female adolescent in 5 regencies and cities
conducted by the Yogyakarta Health Office, it showed that as many as 19.3% of them have anemia[5].
Iron is an essential trace mineral that is necessary for the brain development and function[6]. The
most prevalent cause of anemia is inadequate of iron and protein consumption, as well as deficiency
folate, vitamin B12, vitamin A, vitamins B6, C, D, E, riboflavin, copper, and zinc [7]–[9]. Anemia is
caused indirectly by environmental enteric dysfunction (EED), small intestine problem that lead to
malabsorption, viral illnesses, inflammation, and all risk factors may lead to decrease iron absorption
or increased nutrient losses[10][11]. Severe monthly bleeding of adolescent and women childbearing
also contribute the primary risk factors anemia[7] [12]–[14]. According to the previous finding, anemia
also caused by lack of adolescent knowledge, perception, and awareness [14], [15]. In addition, how
adolescents feel about having anemia is a crucial component to consider when formulating an
intervention strategy[16].
Anemia has a complicated set of causes and causes, which is characterized by a lower capacity to
transport oxygen, include fatigue, a reduction in strength, and as well as a lessened physical capacity
[17][18]. This may have an impact on one's cognitive processes academic performance, early
disability-adjusted life years[19], effect on a person's quality of life as a whole, as well as associated
with a lower overall quality of life in adolescents[12], interfering with reproduction even increases the
risk of maternal morbidity and mortality[20]. Cohort studies showed that anemia in adolescence may
continue to anemia during pregnancy[21] with the impact of poor pregnancy outcomes such as Intra
Uterine Growth retardation (IUGR), low birthweight, stunting, and anemic babies [22], [23].
Eliminating anemia is essential for enhancing women and children health, as well as for bettering
academic achievement, workplace productivity, safer pregnancy outcomes, and intergenerational
benefits for improved health, economic growth, and development[15]. Education is strategy to
prevent and tackle early anemia[21], in general adolescents have the potential for good brain
development and need to be continuously stimulated[24] and the prospect of longer implementation
for themself, their family, and the environment. The previous results proven that the response of
knowledge and attitudes of adolescents after being given educational interventions was good, such
as research in Jordan[25], Indonesia[26], Malaysia[26], and many countries[26]. Currently almost all
adolescents have used android, even they are the biggest android users in Indonesia. It is crucial to
utilize android as a social media platform in order to make substantial progress in enhancing the
efficacy and effectiveness of intervention education[27]. For this reason, this study aims to improve
the knowledge and attitudes of adolescents through social media website and WhatsApp, and find
out the difference in effectiveness.

4. DISCUSSION
Participants in this study are high school students who are still in the developmental stages of growth
and consolidation[30]. Education, including valuable health literation to adolescent is strategy to fulfill
their right to gain health knowledge and good practices[31]. Hence, anemia in adolescence has a
serious impact such as disrupting their growth, development, intelligence, and productivity. Anemia
also have continuing impact on the health status in the subsequent phase of life, which is the
preconception stage to pregnancy[32]. Previous study stated that low hemoglobin levels during
pregnancy would also threaten the health of neonates[22]. The infants of mothers with low
hemoglobin levels have an increased risk of premature birth, low birth weight, and death[21][33].
Therefore, early education about anemia for female adolescents was necessary to prevent poor birth
outcomes.
At the onset of the study, the adolescents' knowledge and attitudes were equivalent or comparable,
so we estimated that the change in adolescents' knowledge and attitudes after treatment was due to
the intervention. During the course of the investigation, adolescents did not have access to any
information other than that provided by the researcher. The results indicated that adolescents'
knowledge and attitudes increased after receiving interventions. This finding also showed that
adolescents' knowledge and attitudes on WhatsApp group was higher and increased significant than
website base intervention. It is possible to explain that firstly, WhatsApp has been more well-known
and simpler to use than websites, and the secondly, the amount of memory storage required by
WhatsApp media is less, which is why users tend to store it[34], thirdly, the majority of Android users

are using WhatsApp as social media, amounted to 41%[35]. So that this encourages the sustainability
of WhatsApp intervention education use longer.
The cell phone has emerged as the most popular method of communication, particularly among
younger generations, and a significant number of population used in for education, communication,
work, and recreation[34]. According to the Central Statistics Agency, 67.88% of Indonesians aged 5
and older owned a mobile phone in 2022, and this number tends to increase from year to year[36].
In additional, other surveys showed that the majority of the time spent on a smartphone is devoted
to communication, instant messaging (90.7%), and social networks (88.8%) [35]. This finding
confirmed WhatsApp's impact on f efficient education intervention on Oman higher education[37],
medical education especially for digital-pathology, radiology, and cardiology[38], education for
maternal pregnancy[39], and maternal and newborn health[40]. In addition, the findings of this study
have implications for school program policy makers to support the future optimization of the use of
WhatsApp as an educational media to increase health and adolescent’s welfare.
5. CONCLUSIONS
After nutrition education, there is an increase in the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent regarding
the prevention of anemia. Website and WhatsApp media are equally effective in enhancing
adolescent attitudes toward the prevention of anemia. However, WhatsApp media is more effective
than website to increase knowledge about the prevention of anemia. In this study, both website and
WhatsApp media can be combined with other educational tool to increase adolescents' knowledge
and attitudes regarding health.
