“…The influence of gender on adolescent knowledge about reproductive health can also be seen in the previous research which stated that education on gender equality-based reproductive health could only increase the knowledge of female adolescents, while the male adolescent knowledge did not increase. The difference in knowledge between male and female adolescents was attributed to the male respondents who tended to be less serious in receiving reproductive health education [12].…”

“…The results of the study found that there was no significant difference in adolescents with gender-based reproductive health education interventions with booklets compared to regular reproductive health education conducted by local health centers (puskesmas). The use of booklets is evaluated to be less attractive to adolescents because they are more interested in using cellphones to access various information, for this reason, an application for reproductive health education based on gender equality (commander) was developed [12]. To explore this issue in more depth, this research aimed to implement an application of gender-based adolescent reproductive health education as an alternative approach in adolescent reproductive health education.…”

BACKGROUND: Teenage dating behavior can lead to unsafe dating behavior. There has been an increase in the incidence of sexual violence, involving adolescent girls as victims of abuse. It is imperative to provide more proactive protection and violence prevention by gender equality-based reproductive health education through application media. AIM: The aim of the study was to determine the effect of the Commander application (gender equality-based adolescent reproductive health education) on knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy of high school students in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. METHODS: This quasi-experimental study was conducted with a non-equivalent design (pretest and posttest) and a control group. The intervention group received gender-based adolescent reproductive health education with the media application that was made by the research team, while the control group received routine reproductive health education with lectures organized by the local public health center (Puskesmas). The research population was all high school students in the Yogyakarta City, and the schools were selected based on those in the target area of the Puskesmas that had adolescent health services. School selection based on school characteristic type of school and number of students. Two schools were selected as the intervention and control groups with a minimum sample of 30 male and 30 female students from each school. The total sample was 170 people. The questionnaire used to measure attitude, knowledge, and self-efficacy was previously tested for validity and reliability and declared valid and reliable. Comparative analysis has been carried out in two paired groups using a dependent t-test, while for two unpaired groups using an independent t-test. RESULTS: The mean values of knowledge in the intervention and control groups were 0.628 versus −0.183 and the difference between the two groups was not significant (p = 0.108). The average attitude values of the intervention and control groups were 0.557 versus −2.283 and the difference between the two groups was significantly different (p = 0.000). The average self-efficacy values of the intervention and control groups were 3.785 versus −3.350 and the difference between the two groups was significantly different (p = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS: Gender-based adolescent reproductive health education interventions with application media can improve adolescent attitudes and self-efficacy.

“…Research has shown that education can help reduce some gender inequality. Gender equality-based reproductive education can improve motivation and self-control, lessen the impact of sexuality, and alter attitudes and beliefs about traditional gender roles [6]. Gender equality education refers to differences that extend from physiological sexuality, including gender concepts constructed by social systems and cultures.…”

Within the past decades, research has been increasingly drawn toward understanding the factors that obstacle the gender equality education of Asian society. However, to examine the hindering factors requires research of its breath and underlying mechanisms from an interdisciplinary approach. This paper begins by reviewing the gender education in relation to its concept and significances. The main influencing factors are then explored from a macro-environmental perspective, including supportive policies, economic conditions, and relevant talents. Research shows that the significant considerations should be given to lack of top-level policy support, high learning stress on learners, insufficient distribution of economic funds, current situation of gender opposition, and stereotypes and the solidification of Feudal ideas. For suggestions related to gender equality education, in addition to improving sex education, from the perspective of women of all ages, Asian fertility policies and corporate maternity leave policies need to be further optimized. The specific implementation of gender equality education courses can refer to examples from other developed regions outside East Asia, while encouraging the development of peoples thinking and creating an open, equal, and free new society.

Risky sexual behavior is common among teenagers in Tosari, Pasuruan, and is caused by lack of access to reproductive health knowledge. Data from primary health care stated that 60% of mothers who had children under five married at too-young age of 15-19 years. However, Tosari has an active and routine Youth Integrated Health Post or Posyandu Remaja (PR). PR is a community-based youth health service that can potentially increase access to reproductive health services for youth around PR. During the development period, youth needs to prevent risks, including risky sexual behavior, as described in the Positive Youth Development (PYD) framework. Therefore, a reproductive health education modul was developed using the PYD framework. Modul was delivered to PR cadres and members in Tosari using modules compiled through literature studies and assessments from experts and stakeholders. After that, attitudes and knowledge were measured through pre-test and post-test. The results showed a significant change in knowledge and attitudes among participants after following the education program (p < 0.001, effect size 0.649). This module and educational model are expected to improve and help youths to face challenges during the development period so that risky sexual behavior can be avoided.
