Background: To reduce maternal mortality, the Indonesian government campaigned for a health promotion program based on the family approach, namely “Suami Siaga” (Husband Alert). Study aims to analyze the effect of socioeconomic on the husband's involvement in ANC in rural Indonesia.Methods: The study employed data from the 2017 IDHS. Samples of 7,156 respondents were obtained. Besides the socioeconomic, other variables analyzed in this study were age, education, occupation, and parity. The final stage was employed binary logistic regression.Results: Families with the poorer socioeconomic status, the possibility of husbands being involved in ANC was 2.154 times compared to the poorest. Families with the middle socioeconomic status were more likely to have their husbands involved in ANC 2.785 times compared to the poorest. Families with a richer socioeconomic status were more likely to have their husbands involved in ANC 2.901 times compared to the poorest. Meanwhile, families with poorer socioeconomic status, the possibility of their husbands being involved in ANC was 5.299 times compared to the poorest. The results of this analysis inform that all socioeconomic statuses have a higher likelihood of husband involvement in ANC than the poorest families. The better the socioeconomic, the higher the possibility of the husband to be involved in ANC. Apart from socioeconomic, 3 other variables were also found as determinants of the husband's involvement in ANC in rural Indonesia, namely education, occupation, and parity.Conclusions: The socioeconomic status was a determinant of the husband's involvement in ANC in rural Indonesia.
Background The prevalence of tobacco use in Southeast Asia communities is 56% which 15% of them are female active smokers. Several studies explain that working status, neighborhood, marital status, and education are factors that cause smoking behavior in women. A scientific study is needed to obtain valid assumptions regarding the relationship of these determinants. This study aimed to analyze the determinant of smoking behavior among female workers in the Philippines and Indonesia. Methods The data is processed from 2017 PDHS and use female workers in the Philippines and Indonesia as the study population. The sample size is 11,375 female workers in the Philippines and 26,712 female workers in Indonesia. Apart from smoking behavior as the dependent variable, other variables analyzed were the place of residence, age, marital, education, parity, currently pregnant, and wealth status. The analysis in the final stage uses binary logistic regression. Results The results show that female workers in both countries from urban areas have a higher likelihood of becoming smokers than those who live in rural areas. Age group is finding as one of the smoking behavior determinants among female workers in both countries. Female workers with long-distance marriage and married / living with a partner have a lower probability of becoming a smoker than those who have marital status in the widowed/divorced category. Education level and parity are also finding as one of the smoking behavior determinants among them. Meanwhile, pregnancy found to be a protective factor for them to become a smoker. Finally, the multivariate test results found that wealth status is also a determinant of smoking behavior for female workers in both countries. Conclusions It was concluded that the seven variables analyzed are the determinants of smoking behavior among female workers in the Philippines and Indonesia. The seven variables are type of place, age, marital, education, parity, pregnancy, and wealth status.
