Abstract

Syphilis is one of the reproductive health problems that remains a challenge in Indonesia, with a trend of increasing cases, while the level of adolescent knowledge about this disease is still low. Educational efforts are needed to improve adolescent understanding, one of which is through video media which is considered more interesting because it combines visual and audio elements. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of video as an educational medium in improving adolescent knowledge about syphilis at SMKS Al Hikmah 2 Sirampog, Brebes Regency. This type of research is a pre-experimental study with a one group pretest-posttest design. The study sample consisted of 47 students selected using a purposive sampling technique. The research instrument was a syphilis knowledge questionnaire administered before and after the educational video intervention. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and N-Gain calculation. The study showed that Results Before the intervention, the level of knowledge of respondents was in the good category for 24 students (51.1%), sufficient for 11 students (25.5%), and poor for 12 students (23.4%). After being given the educational video intervention, there was a significant increase with all respondents (100%) being in the good category. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test showed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p-value = 0.000). N-Gain analysis categorized the increase in knowledge as high. The study concluded that video media has proven effective as an educational tool in increasing adolescent knowledge about syphilis, making it a viable alternative learning medium in reproductive health programs.
