Description

Introduction: The prevalence of anemia worldwide is very high,
particularly in developing countries, including Indonesia. Adolescent girls
are especially susceptible to anemia, with the monthly menstrual cycle
being one of the contributing factors. This review aims to synthesize data
by analyzing several articles that focus on the prevention of anemia in
adolescent girls using the Lawrence W. Green theory approach.
Methods: The method used for this article is a literature review of articles
published between 2020 and 2024. The sources include Google Scholar,
PubMed, and ScienceDirect, with the keywords "Anemia," "Prevention,"
"Adolescent girls," and "Lawrence W. Green's Theory." After the screening
process, 15 articles were selected for review out of the 883 articles initially
identified.
Results: The findings indicate that individual behaviors vary widely, even
among identical twins. Behavior does not always follow a predictable
pattern, and the development of positive behavior is not solely determined
by knowledge or positive attitudes. According to Lawrence W. Green's
Theory, factors influencing actions or behaviors are classified into three
categories: 1) Predisposing factors, 2) Enabling factors, and 3) Reinforcing
factors.
Conclusion: The prevention of anemia in adolescent girls is influenced by
factors such as knowledge levels, attitudes, peer support, and the
availability of health facilities.
