Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global public health problem with rising prevalence, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Preventive education is essential to mitigate the burden of DM, yet traditional media often fail to effectively reach populations with varying literacy levels. Animation media offers a dynamic and accessible approach to health promotion. This study aimed to examine the effect of health promotion using animation media on increasing knowledge of diabetes prevention among adults. Methods: This quasi-experimental study employed a pretest–posttest non-equivalent control group design. A total of 50 respondents were purposively selected and divided equally into intervention (n = 25) and control (n = 25) groups. The intervention group received a 12-minute animation-based educational session on diabetes prevention, followed by a brief discussion. Knowledge was assessed using a validated questionnaire administered before and seven days after the intervention. Data were analyzed using paired and independent t-tests with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: In the intervention group, the mean knowledge score increased significantly from 62.4 (±10.5) to 84.8 (±7.3) (p < 0.001). The control group showed a minimal increase from 64.0 (±9.8) to 68.2 (±9.6) (p = 0.072). Posttest comparisons revealed a significant difference between the intervention and control groups (p < 0.001), indicating the effectiveness of the animation media. Conclusion: Health promotion using animation media significantly improved respondents’ knowledge of diabetes prevention. Animation is a promising tool for delivering preventive health education in community settings.
