Description
This study examines the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to diabetes among residents of Chanayetharzan Township, Mandalay, revealing critical gaps in diabetes management despite generally positive attitudes. This study is to investigate and analyze the knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) of the general public regarding Diabetes Mellitus in the study area. A total of 359 household representatives from three wards who are aged 18 and above were selected by using from Choran’s Formula. The data set was gathered through a structured questionnaire covering demographics, diabetes knowledge, attitudes toward its management, and
related practices. Multiple linear regression was used to examine how knowledge and attitude affect practice. The results show that although many participants have positive attitudes toward healthy habits, some still underestimate the disease and face stigma, leading to gaps in behavior especially in managing weight. Knowledge has a stronger impact on practice than attitude, suggesting the need to focus more on educational efforts. While many participants recognize the importance of healthy habits, misconceptions, social stigma, and underestimation of diabetes risks contribute to poor weight management practices. The findings indicate that knowledge has a stronger influence on behavior than attitude, underscoring the need for targeted educational campaigns to improve diabetes awareness. Additionally, the study highlights the role of social media in health communication and a preference for private healthcare, suggesting that public health interventions should leverage digital platforms and address accessibility barriers. To enhance diabetes prevention and control, future programs should empower women in family health decision-making, strengthen health literacy, and foster social support systems. Addressing these factors could help mitigate the growing diabetes burden in the community, particularly given the challenges posed by urbanization, unhealthy diets, and limited healthcare access.
