3 used to reveal knowledge and attitude
of people toward the HIVAIDS transmission. Questionnaire consists of
86 items of question which were apparently quite valid and reliable.
Reliability
coefficient was
quite, showed by the alpha value = 0.824 and
8 items were dropped from attitude components. Validity and reliability
testing
were not
conducted for
knowledge and behavior items because the knowledge that will be revealed
was not for testing respondents‟ ability
as well as behavior question items that will be used to reveal uncover facts
about behavior that have been made by respondents. Hence, validity and
reliability testing were not needed to be conducted for said questionnaire,
similarly with concrete behavior. Concrete behavior is behavior that is
really experienced and has done so far. Result
There were
only 589
respondents‟ data that could be analyzed from the total of 600. 11
participants from pre-test and 46 from post-test were dropped, caused by their

value of knowledge variable was 20.606 with the probability level of
p=0.001. Meanwhile, the t-value of attitude variable was 11.505 with the
