Abstract

Early detection of child development and optimal early stimulation are part of children's health efforts in shaping quality human beings. In order to support efforts to detect children's development optimally, it is necessary to use technology such as interactive websites and Android so that information can be accessed more easily by all people. The current research aimed to measure the effectiveness of using Android-Based KPSP Mobile application on the motivation and response of cadres in detecting deviation in the development of preschool children. This research was done quantitatively using Quasi-Experimental research involving a pretest and posttest control group design. The total number of samples used in this study were 64 people divided into 2 groups, that is, the intervention group including 32 people and control group including 32 people. The results of the paired t-test before and after the intervention in the intervention group obtained a p-value of 0.00 which is smaller than the significant level of 0.05. The results of paired t-test before and after intervention in the intervention group obtained a p-value of 0.00 smaller than the significant level of 0.05. The results of multivariate analysis used multi analysis of covariance (mancova). Based on the results, there is a significant difference in the motivation of integrated health service (posyandu) respondents between the intervention group and the control group. The statistical test results showed a p-value of 0.00, indicating a significant difference in the responses of posyandu respondents between the intervention group and the control group. Furthermore, the statistical test results showed a p-value of 0.00.
