5. Conclusions
The results of this research showed that BIDAN CANTIK psychoeducation could help improve the service of public health center's midwives. The service of midwives was improved through the significant increase of knowledge on HIV. However, BIDAN CANTIK was not significant in decreasing (negative) attitude toward HIV and increasing ECC. BIDAN CANTIK also could not encourage the midwives to socialize HIV and AIDS to HMC policlinic's patients. This happened because of social-culture factor such as: (1) the midwives did not have confidence in their knowledge, even though that knowledge was accurate; (2) the midwives did not know how to take action based on the possessed knowledge; (3) the growing stigma within the society discouraged the midwives in spreading information on HIV and AIDS. Moreover, as an alternative model that had been newly implemented with small and non-randomized subjects, the effectiveness of BIDAN CANTIK cannot be generalized widely yet and has limitation on experiment validity.
