| dc.description.abstract | Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) infection has been a major public healthrelated
issue worldwide, including Indonesia. The COVID-19 cases still
escalating until this study finished in June 2020 due to the disease positively
spreading from person to person. To reduce the spreading of the disease,
investigating Indonesian’s knowledge, attitudes, and practice on COVID
prevention and mitigation during the outbreak period was crucial. A survey
cross-sectional was conducted and using social networking apps to recruit
participants. All Indonesian residents who have 18 years old and over and
living in Indonesia during the COVID-19 outbreak were voluntarily invited
to participate in this study. There are 3464 participants involved in this study.
The mean age was 27.63 years, and mostly were women, domicile in Java,
held bachelor degrees, students, Muslims, and single/never married. The
lowest mean practices score was found among residents who live in Maluku,
Papua, and Papua Barat, senior high qualification, unemployed, indigenous
religions, and single/never married. The majority of Indonesian residents
have good knowledge, positive attitudes, and good practice to promote
COVID-19 prevention and mitigation to reduce the pandemic spreading
within the country. However, there is a lack of knowledge, attitudes, and
practice among a particular group of participants. | en_US |
