Abstract

Knowledge about reproductive health should already be possessed by adolescents, through information media it is very easy to get it. But with the vast amount of knowledge possessed by teenagers, it has not been able to foster a sense of belonging to their reproductive health status. This research was conducted through a cross sectional study approach. This study obtained 221 respondents using purposive sampling technique. The value of the results of multiple logistic regression tests conducted simultaneously on the three variables obtained significant results are as follows, X1 (0,000), X2 (0.122) and X3 (0.009). The results showed insignificant because of the sig value. X2> 0.005. The odds ratio (OR) values of X1 and X3, are 0.069 and 0.218 which means the greatest odds ratio is on biological and psychological factors. Various factors that become variables on adolescent awareness about reproductive health are social, economic and demographic factors, cultural and environmental factors as well as biological and psychological factors affecting the level of adolescent awareness of their health in terms of reproduction. Of the three components of the factors mentioned above, biological and psychological factors have the greatest influence.
