Development And Evaluation Of A Contextual Digital Health Literacy Model For Obesity Risk Mitigation Among Women Of Reproductive Age

Siti Syamsiah

Abstract


Latar Belakang: Wanita usia subur merupakan kelompok yang rentan terhadap obesitas yang berdampak pada kesehatan umum dan kesehatan reproduksi. Literasi kesehatan digital yang kontekstual dipandang sebagai pendekatan inovatif dalam upaya mitigasi risiko obesitas. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan dan mengevaluasi model literasi kesehatan digital kontekstual dalam mitigasi risiko obesitas pada wanita usia subur. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain quasi-eksperimen dengan pendekatan pretest–posttest. Intervensi berupa penerapan model literasi kesehatan digital kontekstual diberikan kepada wanita usia subur, kemudian dianalisis perubahan pengetahuan, perilaku pencegahan obesitas, serta indikator risiko obesitas menggunakan analisis univariat, bivariat, dan multivariat. Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan dan perubahan perilaku pencegahan obesitas yang signifikan setelah intervensi (p<0,05). Selain itu, terdapat penurunan indeks massa tubuh dan lingkar perut responden. Analisis multivariat menunjukkan bahwa perubahan perilaku merupakan faktor paling dominan yang memengaruhi penurunan risiko obesitas. Kesimpulan dan Saran: Model literasi kesehatan digital kontekstual terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan, membentuk perilaku hidup sehat, dan menurunkan risiko obesitas pada wanita usia subur. Oleh karena itu, disarankan agar model ini dapat diintegrasikan dalam pelayanan kebidanan dan program promosi kesehatan di fasilitas pelayanan kesehatan primer, serta dikembangkan lebih lanjut melalui penelitian berskala lebih luas sebagai dasar penguatan kebijakan dan pengajuan hibah penelitian.

ABSTRACT

 

Background: Women of reproductive age represent a population group that is vulnerable to obesity, which adversely affects both general and reproductive health. Contextual digital health literacy is considered an innovative approach for mitigating obesity risk. Objective: This study aimed to develop and evaluate a contextual digital health literacy model for obesity risk mitigation among women of reproductive age. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest approach. The intervention consisted of implementing a contextual digital health literacy model among women of reproductive age. Changes in knowledge, obesity-preventive behaviors, and obesity risk indicators were analyzed using univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses. Results: The findings showed a significant increase in knowledge and meaningful changes in obesity-preventive behaviors following the intervention (p < 0.05). Additionally, reductions in body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference were observed among respondents. Multivariate analysis indicated that behavioral change was the most dominant factor influencing the reduction of obesity risk. Conclusion and Recommendation: The contextual digital health literacy model proved effective in enhancing knowledge, shaping healthy lifestyle behaviors, and reducing obesity risk among women of reproductive age. Therefore, it is recommended that this model be integrated into midwifery services and health promotion programs at primary healthcare facilities and further developed through large-scale studies to support policy strengthening and research grant applications.
