The effect of animation video modeling on mother’s ability in preparing toilet training in toddler

Toilet training failure can be caused by a lack of knowledge about toilet training. Modeling animated videos stimulate parents through interesting shows that contain toilet training steps so that information can be quickly understood. The purpose of this study was to look at the effect of modeling video animation on the ability of toilet training of mothers with toddler age children. The research design used is the Quasi-Experimental pre-post control group design. The total sample used amounted to 25 respondents. The sampling method uses the purposive sampling method. The independent variable in this research is modeling video animation, and the dependent variable is the readiness of the mother’s toilet training (knowledge, attitudes, and actions) and the ability of the child’s toilet training. The instrument in this study was the mother toilet training readiness questionnaire (knowledge, attitudes, and actions) as well as the child toilet training ability. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and the Mann Whitney statistical test. In general, maternal toilet training readiness (knowledge, attitudes, and actions) and children’s toilet training capabilities show good aspects in all aspects of toilet training readiness. Video modeling animation increases the readiness of the mother’s training toilet and the ability of the child’s toilet training, so modeling video animation can be used as a choice to improve the implementation of toilet training.
