Abstract:
Tuberculosis as an infectious disease is increasing in both the number of cases and severity of impact, and the number of cases among school-aged children is also increasing. Health promotion campaigns in schools have not been intensive, and there is poor behavior in tuberculosis prevention. Role play-playing roles actively with provided materials-is one health education method that can empower school-aged children to understand tuberculosis prevention. The purpose of this research is to identify the influence of role playing on tuberculosis transmission prevention in school-aged children. Study participants were 100 school-aged children. The study used quasi-experimental types of pre-test and post-test, with a control group. The t test results showed that improvement of tuberculosis prevention behaviors in the intervention group was higher than the control group (p value = .000). The role play method is recommended for health education for at least 6 sessions in school-aged children.
