An increasing number of children who are hospitalized are at risk of an increase in the population of children who experience anxiety. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with the anxiety of preschoolers who had undergone hospitalization in the children's room at Bangkinang Hospital in 2016. The design used in this study was Analytical with Cross Section design. The sample in this study were preschool children who were treated in the children's room of Bangkinang Hospital totaling 30 respondents with the Total Sampling method. The data collection tool used was a questionnaire with univariate and bivariate analysis. The results showed that there were two factors that influenced anxiety that showed related results: hospital environment p = 0.01 (p 5 0.05), health workers p = 0.006 (p 5 0.05), unrelated, namely family support p = 0.7 (p 5 0.05). It is expected that health workers can provide therapy to children to reduce anxiety.
