Abstract

The availability of safe drinking water sources in the Morosi mining area, Konawe Regency is still a challenge. This is because the location does not allow for the provision of a safe source of drinking water. However, there are many more determining factors for adequate drinking water in mining areas. Therefore, the research aims to analyze the model for determining the level of adequacy of drinking water a day for communities in the Morosi mining area, Konawe Regency, Indonesia. This research uses quantitative methods with a cross-sectional study design. This study will be carried out in the mining village of Morosi District, Konawe Regency, Indonesia. This study will interview 100 people in mining villages in May-July 2024. Independent variables include income, knowledge, attitudes, perceived vulnerability, perceived seriousness of illness, beliefs, social norms, self-efficacy, maintenance, recovery and commitment. Meanwhile, the dependent variable is the level of adequate daily drinking of water in coastal and mining communities. Analysis of determination data using Structure Equation Modelling with Smarts version 3. The level of adequate drinking water for communities in the Morosi mining area is influenced by the individual's own knowledge and attitudes. In this study, individual attitudes had a greater influence on the level of adequacy of drinking water (chi-square=6.646), compared to individual knowledge (chi-square=3.699). In this study, the attitude variable is an intermediate variable between the influence of income and the knowledge variable on the level of adequacy of drinking water. Therefore, to increase the adequacy of drinking water in mining areas, what needs to be done is to increase community knowledge and attitudes.
