Abstract

All universities during pandemic Covid-19, including faculty of medicine, have moved to online learning. The ability of students to learn is as much influenced by their inter-and intra-personal behavior as by their academic abilities. This study aimed to examine the association between knowledge, attitude, and gender towards online learning behavior using path analysis. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Al-Azhar Islamic University, Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara. A total of 260 medical students was enrolled in this study. The dependent variable was online learning behavior. The independent variables were knowledge, attitude, and gender. Data were collected using questionnaire and analyzed using path analysis. The online learning behavior was directly affected and has a positive effect on good knowledge (b=0.58; 95%CI= 0.13 to 1.15; p=0.045), positive attitude (b=0.75; 95%CI=0.20 to 1.30; p=0.008), and gender (b=0.65; 95%CI=0.09 to 1.21; p=0.024). The online learning behavior was indirectly influenced by attitude and knowledge. This study concluded that online learning behavior is directly and positively affected by gender, knowledge, and attitude.
