ABSTRACT Adolescent health, both physically and mentally, has become a significant public health issue and a serious concern globally, including in Indonesia. Factors contributing to this health problem include lifestyle habits and lack of health knowledge. Families play a crucial and fundamental role in shaping adolescent health behaviors. Muhammadiyah junior high school students need to know the importance of family support for their healthy lifestyles. The objective of this study was to determine whether there was an increase in knowledge about family support for healthy lifestyles among junior high school students at Muhammadiyah PK Surakarta. The study was conducted using a pretest, presentation of material by a doctor using slides, and a posttest. The results obtained were an average pretest score of 63.36, an average posttest score of 97.59, and an average score increase of 34.54. From the t-test analysis, p<0.001 was obtained for students in class 9A and class 9B, indicating a significant difference in students' knowledge before and after the education program. The conclusion of this activity is that there was an increase in the knowledge of junior high school students about the role of family support in their healthy lifestyle.

Review

This abstract presents a timely and relevant study addressing the critical issue of adolescent health and the pivotal role of family support in fostering healthy lifestyles. The research clearly articulates its objective: to assess the increase in knowledge among Muhammadiyah junior high school students regarding family support for healthy living. The chosen methodology, employing a pretest-posttest design with an educational intervention delivered by a medical professional, is appropriate for evaluating the immediate impact of such a program. The significant improvement in knowledge scores, as evidenced by the substantial rise in average scores and the highly significant p-value, indicates a successful and effective educational intervention. The study's strengths lie in its clear focus, straightforward methodology, and compelling quantitative results. The considerable increase in knowledge (an average score increase of 34.54 points, from 63.36 to 97.59) coupled with the robust statistical significance (p<0.001 for both classes 9A and 9B) provides strong evidence that the educational program effectively enhanced students' understanding of family support for healthy lifestyles. This is a crucial first step in promoting better health outcomes, as increased knowledge often precedes positive behavioral changes. The direct involvement of a doctor in delivering the material likely added to the credibility and impact of the intervention. While the abstract demonstrates a clear success in increasing knowledge, future research could explore several important dimensions. It would be beneficial to investigate the long-term retention of this knowledge and, more importantly, whether this enhanced understanding translates into actual adoption of healthier lifestyle practices by the students. Furthermore, exploring the specific mechanisms through which family support influences adolescent health behaviors, perhaps through qualitative methods or by directly involving parents in the intervention, could provide deeper insights. Specifying the sample size would also enhance the clarity of the abstract. Nevertheless, this study provides a valuable contribution by highlighting the effectiveness of targeted educational interventions in improving adolescent health knowledge.
