Lebih dari 30% remaja putri di Indonesia mengalami anemia. Salah satu penyebab anemia pada remaja putri adalah karena masih rendahnya tingkat kepatuhan remaja putri dalam mengonsumsi tablet zat besi sebagaimana yang telah diprogramkan oleh pemerintah. Anemia pada remaja putri dapat menyebabkan konsentrasi belajar menurun dan bahkan dapat berisiko menimbulkan masalah kehamilan di masa yang akan datang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan remaja putri tentang anemia dengan kepatuhan konsumsi tablet zat besi di SMAN Kuta Baro Aceh Besar. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan desain penelitian Cross Sectional. Populasi pada penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswi dari SMAN 1 dan SMAN 2 Kuta Baro Aceh besar yang berjumlah 109 siswi. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan metode total sampling sehingga jumlah sampel pada penelitian ini sebanyak 109 siswi. Instrumen terkait pengetahuan dan
kepatuhan pada penelitian ini telah diuji validitas dan reliabilitas dengan nila r tabel 0,514 serta nilai Cronbach Alpha masing-masing 0,932 dan 0,719. Analisis data menggunakan analisa bivariat dengan uji Chi Square (P-value

More than 30% of teenage girls in Indonesia suffer from anemic, with one contributing factor being their low compliance in consuming government-provided iron tablets. Anemia in teenage girls not only affects their concentration in studies but also poses future risksfor pregnancy complications. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between teenage girls knowledge about anemia and their adherence to iron tablet consumption at the State Senior High School of Kuta Baro, Aceh Besar Regency. Employing a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional research design, this study targeted all female students from the State Senior High School 1 and the State Senior High School 2 of Kuta Baro, Aceh Besar, totaling 109 participants. Sampling was conducted using the total sampling method, resulting in 109 female students being included in this study. Instruments pertaining to knowledge and compliance were validated and tested for reliability, yielding Cronbach Alpha values of 0,932 and 0,719, respectively, and an r table value of 0,514. Bivariate analysis, employing the Chi Square test (with a significance level of P < 0,05), was utilized to examine the relationship between the variables. The findings revealed no significant correlation between the teenage girls knowledge about anemia and their compliance with iron tablet consumption (P = 0,203). However, it is recommended that schools and parents intensify their supervision of their teenage children to ensure proper adherence to iron tablet consumption.
