Awareness Environmental Health Household Waste Management Behavior Knowledge Level
Abstract
Background: Improper household waste management remains an environmental health problem in Sidomukti Village, Plaosan District, Magetan Regency. Knowledge, awareness, and socioeconomic conditions are considered factors related to household waste management behavior.
Purpose: To analyze the relationship between knowledge, awareness, and socioeconomic status and household waste management behaviour.
Method: This quantitative study used an analytic survey with a cross-sectional design. The population consisted of 742 households, and 260 respondents were selected using proportional random sampling. Data were collected using a closed questionnaire that had undergone validity and reliability testing. Univariate analysis used frequency and percentage distributions, while bivariate analysis used chi-square and gamma coefficients with α = 0.05.
Results: Most respondents were female (56.9%), had SMA/SMK education (34.2%). Knowledge was mostly moderate (38.5%), awareness mostly low (42.3%), and waste management behavior mostly moderate (54.2%). Knowledge was significantly related to behavior (gamma = 0.681; p = 0.000), as were awareness (gamma = 0.869; p = 0.000).
Conclusion: Levels of knowledge and awareness are significantly and positively associated with household waste management behavior in Sidomukti Village, Plaosan District, Magetan Regency. The relationship between knowledge and behavior yielded a gamma value of 0.681, while the relationship between awareness and behavior yielded a gamma value of 0.869; both associations showed a p-value of 0.000. These findings indicate that improvements in understanding and awareness must go hand in hand to enhance household waste management behavior.
Suggestion: Future research is recommended to examine other factors potentially influencing household waste management behavior—such as the availability of facilities and infrastructure, family support, habits, and community participation—thereby complementing the factors analyzed in this study.
