Pengaruh Sikap dan Pengetahuan terhadap Kepatuhan Menerapkan Proteksi Radiasi Sinar-X (Studi Kasus Praktik Radiologi Mahasiswa PKL ATRO di RSUD H.Abdul Aziz Marabahan)

Abstract

Background: This research investigates how attitudes and knowledge contribute to the compliance of ATRO internship students in applying X-ray radiation protection at H. Abdul Aziz Marabahan Regional Hospital.

Methods: A quantitative approach with multiple regression analysis was employed. The study involved 50 ATRO interns, all of whom were selected through a total sampling technique. Data collection was carried out using structured questionnaires. The analysis process included descriptive statistics, assumption tests (normality, linearity, and multicollinearity), along with instrument validity and reliability checks. Hypotheses were tested using multiple regression, supported by t-tests, F-tests, and calculations of both effective and relative contributions.

Results: The analysis indicated that most students scored high on attitude, knowledge, and compliance. The attitude factor (X1) significantly affected compliance (Y), with a coefficient of 0.541, significance value of 0.000 (<0.05), and a Tcount of 5.384 (>1.675, Ttable). Likewise, the knowledge factor (X2) also had a significant impact, with a coefficient of 0.437, significance value of 0.000 (<0.05), and a Tcount of 4.351 (>1.675, Ttable).

Conclusions: Both attitude and knowledge were proven to significantly influence the compliance of ATRO interns in practicing X-ray radiation safety during their clinical training at H. Abdul Aziz Marabahan Regional Hospital.
