Abstract

The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2019 placed Indonesia as the 6th ranked country with DM sufferers which reached 10.3 million people. Predictions from the IDF say there will be an increase in the number of DM sufferers from 10.7 million in 2019 to 13.7 mil- lion in 2030. Data from the health office shows that 2.2% or around 13.000 of 12.287 cases of diabetes mellitus in Pekalongan Regency, Central Java, Indonesia, is a diabetes mellitus sufferer of productive age. This is caused by changes in lifestyle, diet, rest patterns and genet- ics. This study aims to determine the determinants of DM in productive age in Pekalongan Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. The quantitative study used a cross-sectional design ap- proach with a proportional random sampling technique on 158 respondents in three selected areas, namely Tirto I, Kedungwuni I, and Wiradesa Districts by using questionnaires, GPAQ instruments, and self-efficacy scales. The results of the logistic regression test on the deter- minants of productive age DM obtained the equation model Y = -3.949 - 2.040 history of heredity + 1.932 physical activity + 2.345 perceived benefits + 2.985 knowledge of diabetes mellitus. So it can be concluded that the variables of physical activity, knowledge, perceived benefits influence the incidence of diabetes mellitus at productive age in Pekalongan Regency.
