In 2021, diarrhea cases in Taurus Health Center, Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara working area occurred more in elementary school children. Hand washing with soap (HWS) reduced diarrhea rates by 47%. This study aimed to analyze the different effect between lecture and demonstration methods on knowledge, attitudes and skills on hand washing with soap in GMIT Manumuti Elementary School students. Method: This quasi-experimental study was done in “ pretest-posttest group design”. The subjects were all of 68 students in grade 5 (total sampling technique), who were evenly and randomly divided into 2 groups of lecture and demonstration. Data were collected through observations and interviews using structured questionnaires and were analyzed by paired and independent sample t-tests. Results: The subjects were 10-12 years old and 58.5% were boys. The mean knowledge scores increased from 52.2±8.89 to 75.1±7.17 (p=0.001) in the lecture group and from 62.5±8.89 to 86.9±7.17 (p=0.001).in the demonstration group, respectively. The mean attitude scores increased from 57.9±10.52.to 70.1±5.46 (p=0.001) in the lecture group and from 67.1 ±10.11 to 82.8±8.78 (p=0.001) in the demonstration group, respectively. The mean skill scores increased from 53.3±13.38 to 68.94±7.80 (p=0.001) in the lecture and from 60.76±17.11 to 82.7±10.33 (p=0.001) in the demonstration group. The mean knowledge, attitude and skills’ scores in the demonstration group after the intervention were all higher (p<0.05) than the control group. Conclusion: Demonstration method increased knowledge, attitude and skills on hand washing with soap better than the lecture method in elementary school students at GMIT Manumuti Elementary School.}, issn = {2597-4378}, pages = {249--255} doi = {10.14710/jphtcr.v7i3.22869}, url = {https://ejournal2.undip.ac.id/index.php/jphtr/article/view/22869} }
