Factors Associated with Consumer Behavior in Selecting Packaged Foods with Front-of-Package Nutrition Labeling (FOPNL) , Apriningsih Apriningsih, , Riswandy Wasir, , Laily Hanifah, and Journal of Population and Social Studies, 2026 Obesity remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, partly driven by changes in dietary patterns and increased consumption of energy-dense, nutrient-poor foods. Front-of-package nutrition labeling (FOPNL) has been introduced globally as a strategy to support healthier food choices by improving access to simplified nutrition information. In Indonesia, the voluntary “Healthier Choice” logo represents the initial implementation of FOPNL, although its use and public awareness remain limited. This study aimed to identify factors associated with consumer behavior in choosing packaged foods with FOP labels. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in September 2024 among 282 adult followers of the Ilmugiziku social media platform, selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a self-administered online questionnaire and analyzed using chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regression. More than half of respondents (52.5%) demonstrated good food selection behavior. Bivariate analysis showed significant associations between food choice behavior and gender, education level, nutrition knowledge, and attitudes toward FOP labels (p < .05). In the final multivariate model, only education level remained significantly associated with behavior, with higher-educated respondents more likely to report good food selection behavior (AOR = 1.96, 95% CI [1.26, 3.16]). These findings indicate that education plays a central role in shaping consumer engagement with simplified nutrition labels. Strengthening nutrition literacy and expanding the clarity and reach of FOP labeling may support healthier food choices and contribute to national efforts to reduce diet-related non-communicable diseases while advancing universal health coverage and health system resilience.
The Effect of Extracts from Katuk and Torbangun Leaves on Total Phenol Content as a Breastfeeding Enhancer Apriningsih Apriningsih, Laily Hanifah, Nanang Nasrullah Bio Web of Conferences, 2025 The coverage rate of exclusive breastfeeding dropped from 54.3% to 37.3%, according to the 2018 Indonesia health study report. The maternal dietary pattern, which includes low fruit and vegetable consumption among Indonesian nursing moms, was one of the factors that contributed to this lower rate. It has long been thought that a variety of fruit and vegetable sources of micronutrients could improve the production of breastmilk. Food bars with extracts from katuk and torbangun leaves may be a creative way to ensure that nursing moms obtain enough vegetables and galactagogue chemicals. These food bars can be readily taken orally as supplemental snacks for mothers who don't have time to eat them during regular or emergencies. The purpose of this study is to investigate food bar formulation and phenol content properties as a breastfeeding enhancer. The samples were 900 grams of leaves from Sauropus androgynus and Plectranthus amboinicus (Lour.). The Folin-Ciocalteu method was modified to assess the total phenolic compound concentration. A one-way ANOVA test was used to process the data. Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) analysis was used for additional testing (post-hoc). The optimal formulation and F0 (control) were subjected to a t-test. The amount of katuk and torbangun extract significantly affected the cookies' ash, carbohydrate, and total phenol content (p<0.05), and the T-test revealed a significant difference in total phenol content between the treatment and control groups (p<0.05). To determine whether the cookies are beneficial for new mothers, more research is required.
Spatial analysis of metabolic syndrome among healthcare workers in a suburban area Apriningsih Apriningsih, Firlia Ayu Arini, Eflita Meiyetriani Bio Web of Conferences, 2025 This study aims to investigate the prevalence and spatial distribution of metabolic syndrome (MetS), obesity, hypertension, and high cholesterol levels among health workers in Depok City. 614 respondents were surveyed, with most female (75.1%) and aged 25-34 (44.3%). The study found high rates of high blood pressure (33.2%), high cholesterol levels (30.3%), and metabolic syndrome (40.7%), with 47.6% classified as obese. Spatial analysis revealed significant correlations between metabolic syndrome and obesity (p<0.05). Obesity plays a substantial effect in metabolic syndrome prevalence. More study is needed to investigate obesity-targeted interventions to reduce metabolic syndrome prevalence.
Re-Engineering Healthcare Website Usability Using User-Centered Design Siti Aisyah Nur Alim, Anita Muliawati, Catur Nugrahaeni Puspita Dewi, Apriningsih Proceedings 7th International Conference on Informatics Multimedia Cyber and Information System Icimcis 2025, 2025 Ridhoka Salma Hospital is a Sharia-accredited healthcare institution located in Bekasi Regency. The hospital operates an official website that serves as a medium to introduce its institutional profile and to facilitate public access to the healthcare services it provides. However, based on interviews with the management of Ridhoka Salma Hospital, several issues were identified regarding the website, including outdated and irrelevant content, an unappealing visual design, and the insufficient representation of the hospital’s core shari'ah values. To address these issues, this study aims to redesign the user interface of the RS Ridhoka Salma Hospital website to achieve a better level of user experience. The methods used in this study are User-Centered Design (UCD) and the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ). Evaluation of the current website showed suboptimal user experience quality, with average scores in each scale as follows: Attractiveness 0.32, Perspicuity 0.74, Efficiency 0.62, Dependability 0.51, Stimulation 0.58, Novelty 0.21. After the redesign process, the average scores for each UEQ scale increased, with the following results: Attractiveness 1.44, Perspicuity 1.78, Efficiency 1.51, Dependability 1.42, Stimulation 1.35, Novelty 1.29. Most of the UEQ scales after the redesign fall into the "Above Average" category, with some reaching the "Good" category. These results indicate that the proposed redesign successfully improved the user experience quality of Ridhoka Salma Hospital’s website.

Naive Bayesian Approach for Predicting and Classifying Heart Disease Siti Nurhayati, Dwi Liestyowati, Andiyan Andiyan, Ida Rosidawati, Ainur Rofiq Sofa, Apriningsih Apriningsih 2025 5th International Conference on Intelligent Cybernetics Technology and Applications Icicyta 2025, 2025 The primary application of machine learning in medicine today is disease prediction, particularly for heart disease. The heart, the body's hardest-working muscle, contracts approximately one hundred thousand times a day to supply oxygen to all parts of the body. Researchers are increasingly exploring the use of machine learning to enhance disease identification, as it can significantly reduce diagnostic time while improving accuracy and efficiency. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of three machine learning models: Support Vector Machine, Naive Bayes, and Decision Tree. It utilizes the Heart Disease Dataset, derived from the Public Health Dataset, which contains 1,025 data points and 14 variables. The methodology involved categorizing patients with heart disease into three distinct groups and analyzing the outcomes for each category. The findings indicate that Support Vector Machines, Naive Bayes, and Decision Tree models are effective for identifying individuals at risk of heart disease. Notably, the Naive Bayes model achieves an accuracy rate of 92.5%, demonstrating a strong balance between precision, recall, and F1-score, along with consistent performance across training and test datasets. Ultimately, this study aims to streamline and accelerate the diagnosis of symptoms in patients, with the overarching goal of enhancing hospital efficiency and improving the health of the Indonesian community.
Exclusive breastfeeding practice during COVID-19 pandemic in West Java Indonesia: A cross-sectional study Apriningsih, Laily Hanifah, Nanang Nasrulloh Plos One, 2024 Background The achievement towards 100% exclusive breastfeeding still a challenge in many countries despite adverse impacts due to the absence of exclusive breastfeeding. One consequence from the low practice of exclusive breastfeeding is malnutrition, including stunting that can be prevented by providing optimal food to infants, starting with providing exclusive breastfeeding from birth to 6 months of age. However, the practice of exclusive breastfeeding still low and it is suspected that this practice also decreased during the COVID- 19 pandemic. This study aims to analyze the determinants of exclusive breastfeeding in sub-urban areas during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods This study using cross sectional design conducted from interviewing 206 mothers in 2022 who meet the inclusion criteria, consisted of breastfeeding their babies in the last 1 year and live in Sub-urban area in Depok City, West Java. Multiple binary logistic regression used to measure the association and strength between independent variables with the outcome variable. Independent variables with a p-value < 0.25 during the Chi-square test were included in the logistic regression model. Results Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding and early initiation of breastfeeding (EIB) was 58.3% and 57.8% respectively. Factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding practices are education, employment status, knowledge and attitude about exclusive breastfeeding, self-efficacy in providing exclusive breastfeeding, EIB practice, and eating pattern. From multivariate analysis, it was found that the dominant factors to exclusive breastfeeding are EIB. Conclusions The study highlights the importance of improving exclusive breastfeeding practice through early initiation of breastfeeding, mother’s knowledge, education and self-efficacy. Therefore, health promotion and education should emphasize the importance of those factors, supported by the health policy and massive campaign as a key success in exclusive breastfeeding.
Determinants of Electronic Smoking Behavior among Adolescents in Indonesia (Analysis of Global Youth Tobacco Survey 2019) Farwah Hafidah, Apriningsih, Chandrayani Simanjorang, Laily Hanifah Public Health of Indonesia, 2024 Background:E-cigarettes are a concerning issue since e-smoking has affected young people. This phenomenon will be influenced by how common e-cigarette use is among youth. Nevertheless, health experts have found that e-cigarettes have negative effects on health. Objectives:The purpose of this study was to determine factors connected with electronic smoking habits among adolescents in Indonesia. Methods:The 2019 Global Youth Tobacco Survey was used in this cross-sectional study employing a multistage cluster random sampling approach. A total of 7,758 samples were taken after selection based on inclusion criteria. Results:According to this study, 21% of adolescents had tried e-cigarettes. Furthermore, multiple logistic regression analyses revealed that sex (POR: 5.834, 95% CI: 4.749—7.167), allowance (POR: 2.432, 95% CI: 1.874—3.157), obtaining e-cigarette information from friends, shopkeepers, and promotion events (POR: 2.422, 95% CI: 1.959—2.994), and knowledge and attitude (POR: 2.030, 95% CI: 1.683—2.449) were the most influential factors on electronic smoking habits among adolescents in Indonesia. Conclusion:The results indicated that sex, allowance, access to information on e-cigarettes, and the knowledge and attitudes of adolescents strongly influence the likelihood of trying e-cigarettes. Strict policies regarding the use of e-cigarettes among adolescents need to be enforced, especially in regulating advertising and pricing to make them less affordable for adolescents.

Land conversion to cement factory and mining: Effect of environmental change to disaster and farmer livelihoods Harifuddin Harifuddin, Subhan Haris, Haslinda B Anriani, Faidah Azuz, Apriningsih Apriningsih Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2024 Land conversion from agricultural to cement factory and mining areas has consequences for environmental change and degradation that cause disasters and sustainability farmer livelihood. This study aimed to analyze land conversion to a cement factory and mining as determinants of environmental change, environmental change as a determinant of environmental degradation, and the effect of environmental change and environmental degradation on the sustainability of farmer livelihoods. This research used a sequential explanatory design or quantitative rather than qualitative. The research sample totaled 183 respondents. Data collection used the quantitative stage using questionnaires and the qualitative stage using in-depth interviews, observation, and literature study. The results showed that land conversion to a cement factory and mining are causes of environmental change, followed by environmental degradation, such as factory smoke pollution, dust from karst mines, factory vehicle dust, and soil pollution due to coal piles. Environmental change is a cause of environmental degradation, such as crop failure, acute respiratory illness, land clearing, and flooding. The effect of environmental change and environmental degradation on the sustainability of farmer livelihoods is that almost all farmers sell their rice fields for the factory area, then buy ponds, do business, open stalls, and open photocopy businesses. No one returned to being a farmer. The conversion of agricultural land to a cement factory and mining caused a decrease in environmental functions, namely the disruption of the ecosystem chain, which caused flooding and acute respiratory disease and caused farmers to switch to non-agricultural livelihoods.
