Abstract

The prevalence of pediculosis capitis among Yogyakarta's rural elementary school students was 19.6%. The circumstance in urban area was slightly better with prevalence of 12.3% among similar group of students. The aim of this study was to seek the association of the knowledge and personal hygiene with the incidence of pediculosis capitis among students in SD Negeri Mutihan Yogyakarta. This study employed a cross-sectional design and nonprobability sampling to collect the research sample. A questionnaire was distributed to 111 students who agreed to participate in the study. Data was analysed with the Chi-Square Test and Relative Risk. Participants consisted of 65 boys (58.6%) and 46 girls (41.4%). The number of participants who had sufficient knowledge on pediculosis capitis, had good personal hygiene, and suffered pediculosis capitis were 58.6%, 63%, and 36.9%, respectively. Poor knowledge increased the risk of developing pediculosis capitis by 5.9 times. In contrary, poor personal hygiene can reduced its risk. Knowledge and personally hygiene are important factors to determine the incidence of Pediculosis Capitis.
