Abstract

The results showed a difference in knowledge, attitudes and practices to prevent dengue fever before and after the little jumantik training, with the results of statistical tests obtaining a value of p = 0.000 for knowledge, attitudes and practices. These findings can be used to create better and more beneficial health intervention programs for the community, significantly increasing awareness and efforts to prevent dengue fever among children.
