Description

Abu Aqab, Yahya, Al-Hussami, and Ismail survey water, sanitation, and hygiene knowledge among pre-adolescent students in Jordan, in a study from twenty twenty-six. Jordan is among the world's most water-stressed countries. Only one in three schools has basic sanitary facilities. Six hundred Amman students answer questionnaires on knowledge and habits.

Knowledge links positively to attitudes and practices across students. Older students and higher grades score better consistently. Private school students beat public school peers on attitudes and practices. Sex, school type, age, knowledge, and attitudes predict practices. Public school facilities and health education need targeted investment.
