Latar Belakang: Banyak remaja terlibat dalam aktivitas seksual sejak dini dan dengan beberapa mitra. Perilaku seks pranikah dapat berakibat pada kehamilan, penyakit infeksi menular seksual, aborsi, kemandulan dan kematian. Pengetahuan dan sikap yang kurang mendukung terhadap seks pranikah, serta kurangnya akses informasi diyakini sebagai faktor penyebab tingginya masalah seks pranikah pada remaja. Tujuan Penelitian: Diketahuinya efektifitas SMS berbasis seluler dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan dan sikap terhadap seks pranikah pada remaja di Kota Yogyakarta. Metode Penelitian: Rancangan penelitian Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) dengan pre–post design studies. Sampel penelitian 227 siswa kelas X di SMAN 7 dan SMAN 10 Yogyakarta. Analisis data menggunakan Paired t-test, Independent samples T-test, Anava dan Regresi linier dengan tingkat kemaknaan ρ=˂0,05, dengan 95% CI. Hasil: Hasil analisis menunjukkan selisih rerata pengetahuan pada kelompok perlakuan sebesar 1,41(95% CI= 0,89-1,93) dan rerata sikap sebesar 3,87 (95% CI= 2,76-4,99). Rerata pengetahuan kelompok kontrol sebesar 0,05 (95% CI= -0,26-0,36) dan sikap -0,45 (95% CI= -1,14-0,26). SMS seks pranikah pukul 19.00-21.00 WIB menghasilkan selisih rerata pengetahuan 1,33 (95% CI=0,46-2.19) dan rerata sikap 3,47 (95% CI =1.39-5.43). SMS pukul 09.00-11.00 WIB menghasilkan selisih rerata pengetahuan 1,47 (95% CI=0.79-2.15) dan rerata sikap 4.22 (95% CI= 2.91-5.54) . Kelompok kontrol 1 selisih rerata pengetahuan-0,16 (95% CI=-0.89-0.58) dan rerata sikap-0,41 (95% CI=-1.61-0.80). Kelompok kontrol 2 selisih rerata pengetahuan 0,09 (95% CI=-0,25-0.45) dan rerata sikap -0,46 (95% CI=-1.27-0.34).

Result: The analysis result showed that pre-marital SMS at 7 pm-9 pm resulted in knowledge mean difference of 1.33 (ρ=0.00˂0.05) with 95% CI (0.46-2.19) and attitude mean difference of 3.47 (ρ=0.00˂0.05) with 95% CI (1.39-5.43) while pre-marital SMS at 9 am-11 am resulted in knowledge mean difference of 1.47 (ρ=0.00˂0.05) with 95% CI (0.79-2.15) and attitude mean difference of 4.22 (ρ=0.00˂0.05) with 95% CI (2.91-5.54).
