Abstract: Sexting refers to the exchange of sexually explicit content in the form of texts, photos, or videos. Sexting has become a public health issue in Malaysia, where online studies show that more than two-thirds of young people have engaged in sexting. Sexting is associated with risky sexual behavior, cyberbullying, mental health issues, and may lead to legal consequences. However, interventions to prevent sexting in Malaysia are still lacking. This study targets the intention and willingness to sext as these are key predictors of sexting behavior. The aim of this study is to develop and implement a Sexting Intervention Module (SIM) based on the Prototype Willingness Model (PWM) theory, using online animated videos, and to evaluate its effectiveness among students at a higher education institution in Melaka.
Study Method: This study is a randomized controlled trial involving 300 students divided into intervention and control groups. The intervention group received five animated videos via a private YouTube link, while the control group was placed on a waiting list. Assessments were made before, immediately after, and three months after the intervention.
Study Results: The module successfully reduced the intention and willingness to sext significantly in the intervention group compared to the control group. Similarly, attitudes towards sexting, perceived norms about sexting, and positive perceptions towards individuals engaging in sexting were also significantly reduced. On the other hand, knowledge about sexting increased significantly in the intervention group compared to the control group. Conclusion: The SIM module, which uses PWM theory and animated videos, is effective and can be considered by relevant agencies to promote sexual and reproductive health among young people in Malaysia.

Analisis persepsi, pengetahuan dan perilaku (3P) remaja Malaysia mengenai kesihatan reproduktif dan seksual di media sosial menggunakan pendekatan data raya
Item Type: Scientific Poster

Abstract: Discussion on reproductive and sexual health among Malaysians, particularly adolescents, is still considered taboo. However, knowledge in this area is crucial to avoid misunderstandings and promote moral values. Social media, with its collaborative and interactive nature, has become the main platform for discussions on these topics. This study found that there are many keywords related to reproductive and sexual health on social media. However, the lack of a specific lexicon for the local context makes it difficult to understand the discussions and sentiments shared.
To better understand this issue, a sentiment lexicon has been developed, supported by the LPPKN Analytics initiative (https://lppknanalitik.com/). This platform uses sentiment analysis technology, machine learning, and interactive dashboards to analyze social media data. Tweets and comments on social media that contain key keywords are processed, cleaned, and categorized into three main aspects: Perception, Knowledge, and Behavior. This approach provides deeper insights into how adolescents communicate about reproductive and sexual health, effectively utilizing the potential of social media data.

Abstract: Parental communication with teenagers regarding reproductive and sexual health (SRH) remains minimal in Malaysia, with the topic being considered taboo and sensitive, rarely discussed openly within families. Teenagers are exposed to high-risk sexual activities, with 10-15% having engaged in sexual activity. This study aims to develop a communication module specifically for guiding parents in discussing reproductive and sexual health with their teenage children. Additionally, it seeks to analyze the perspectives of both parents and teenagers regarding RS communication and design the "BICARA Kasih" Module for parents. The conclusion of this study is that the module can be used by parents when addressing sexual issues with their children, especially teenagers aged 10 and above, and this module has the potential to be made available in digital format.

Unleashing teen pregnancy in Malaysia and the revolving health care issues
Item Type: Book Section

Abstract: Increasing teen pregnancy cases are becoming a serious public health concern in both developing and developed nations for past decades. Teenage pregnancy occurs among adolescent girls between 10 and 19 years old. A recent study reveals that 14 out of every 1,000 female teenagers in Malaysia become pregnant every year. Such prevalence suggests there is still a lack of general understanding of reproductive health matters among the teenagers. The issue of teen pregnancy requires considerable attention to prevent more social and health problems such as more unintended pregnancies, baby dumping and extensive spread of sexually transmitted diseases within society.
