Abstract: The PEKERTI program was introduced by the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development (KPWKM) through the National Population and Family Development Board (LPPKN) starting in 2009. Its main purpose is to produce individuals who are knowledgeable and have positive attitudes in reproductive and social health aspects. The National Reproductive and Social Health Education Policy and Action Plan (PEKERTI) 2022-2025 has improved the PEKERTI program until introducing the National PEKERTI program in 2025. The objective of the study is to measure the effectiveness of the program using the 4-stage Kirkpatrick Model. In conclusion, the program is effective in increasing knowledge, confidence, and commitment, but the effect is still moderate. Future focus is to increase involvement, satisfaction and interactive activities for better learning effects. Follow-up interventions after the program can close the gap between knowledge and practice (confidence & commitment).

Item Type: Thesis

Year: 00/00/2018
Abstract: Drug issue is a worldwide problem being faced by many countries and creates a complicated social problem including drug abuse among teenagers. This requires an aggressive corrective action by related agencies because it is getting rampant and has yet to be resolved. Nevertheless, society cannot always depend upon the related agencies to solve this problem. The family institution is believed to also have a role to prevent or reduce the drug abuse rate in teenagers. Looking on this aspect, the parenting style is important in shaping good character in behavior, interest, goals, and beliefs of the teenagers. A total of 121 Tamhidi students in USIM involved as respondents for the present study. Each respondent was given a questionnaire with 60 questions, represented by three sections which are - A: Demography; B: DAST-20; and C: Parenting Style. Results revealed that gender has a significant difference (p<0.05) on sociodemographic characteristic. However, no significant difference (p>0.05) were observed on the age, parent marital status, and family household. On the other part of the study, significant difference (p<0.05) was observed on the parenting style. Authoritarian style of parenting has recorded with a low-risk (46.3%) drug taking by the respondents followed by permissive parenting style (25.0%). The analysis also revealed that respondents with parent who are applying the authoritative parenting style had no-risk of possibility on taking drug (96.7%). In summary, socio-demographic attribute on gender and permissive parenting styles has been associated with high-risk drug abuse among respondents in the present study.

Item Type: Article
Editor:
Year: 00/00/2016
Abstract: An average of 18,000 teenagers in Malaysia get pregnant each year, 25% or about 4,500 cases involved out-of-wedlock pregnancy. Th e Fifth Malaysian Population and Family Survey conducted by NPFDB revealed that 4.8% of all teens have had sex at least once. The survey also found that Malaysian teens had inadequate understanding of matters related to sexuality/ reproductive health and limited knowledge when it came to sexual relationships. Afraid, alone and ill-informed, teens who get pregnant out of wedlock often opt for the easiest way out like dumping the baby or subjecting themselves to unsafe abortion. Social rejection from families and the community also rob the girls from the support and assistance they desperately need.
