Abstract

Abstract Introduction: Early marriage is marriage under the age of <19 years, who are not mature enough to get married. Indonesia ranks 4th in the number of child marriage cases under the age of 19, with a 39,4% women married at that age. Purpose: This study aims to determine the factors that influence early marriage in Pondok Kelapa Village, Central Bengkulu Regency in 2025. Methods: This type of research is an analytical observational with a cross sectional approach. The sampling technique used total sampling with a total sample of 70 Fertile Age Couples and data collection using a questionnaire. The analysis was carried out using the Chi Square, and logistic regression tests. Result: The results of this study indicate that almost a portion (34.3%) of fertile age couples married at an early age, almost a portion (35.7%) of fertile age couples have low education, almost a portion (42.9%) of fertile age couples have insufficient knowledge, and almost a portion (30%) of fertile age couples have families that are less supportive. The results of statistical tests using the chi square test showed that there was a relationship between education (p=0.000), knowledge (p=0.002), and family support (p=0.018) with early marriage. The results of multivariate analysis showed that the most dominant factor was education (B=41.000). It is hoped that health workers will be able to work and collaborate across sectors with local community leaders in order to develop counseling and education programs about reproductive health for the community, especially teenagers
