Socio-Economic and Psychological Determinants for Household Water Treatment Practices in Indigenous–Rural Indonesia

  Daniel ; Saket Pande ; Luuk Rietveld (2021) Household water treatment (HWT) is one of the possible technologies to improve the quality of potable water in low–middle-income countries. However, many households still drink untreated water that leads to negative health consequences, highlighting the need for a behavioral study. This study explores the role of […]

Interaction of Factors Influencing the Sustainability of Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) Services in Rural Indonesia: Evidence from Small Surveys of WASH-Related Stakeholders in Indonesia

  Daniel ; Dennis Djohan ; Anindrya Nastiti (2021) It is argued that there are interconnected and dynamic factors that influence the sustainability of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services in developing countries. Five sustainability factors are often mentioned by literature: financial, institutional, environmental, technical, and social (FIETS) factors. This article aims to understand the […]

A System Dynamics Model of the Community-Based Rural Drinking Water Supply Program (PAMSIMAS) in Indonesia

  Daniel ; Julivius Prawira ; Trimo Pamudji Al Djono ); S. Subandriyo ; Arya Rezagama ; Aries Purwanto (2021) The sustainability of the water supply program in developing countries is influenced by many inter-linked and dynamic factors, suggesting the need to analyse the system behaviour of the water supply program. However, no study analyses […]

Assessing Drinking Water Quality at the Point of Collection and within Household Storage Containers in the Hilly Rural Areas of Mid and Far-Western Nepal

  Daniel ; Arnt Diener ; Jack van de vossenberg ; Madan Bhatta ; Sara J. Marks (2020) Accurate assessments of drinking water quality, household hygenic practices, and the mindset of the consumers are critical for developing effective water intervention strategies. This paper presents a microbial quality assessment of 512 samples from household water storage […]

The effect of socio-economic characteristics on the use of household water treatment via psychosocial factors: a mediation analysis

  Daniel ; Saket Pande ; Luuk Rietveld (2020) Household water treatment (HWT) can tackle the issue of consuming unsafe drinking water at home. While household socio-economic characteristics are often assumed to influence the psychology of HWT use, no study has rigorously tested such an assumption. We aim to fill the gap by a cross-sectional […]

A hierarchical Bayesian Belief Network model of household water treatment behaviour in a suburban area: A case study of Palu – Indonesia

Daniel ; Mita Sirait ; Saket Pande (2020) Understanding the determinants of household water treatment (HWT) behavior in developing countries is important to increase the rate of its regular use so that households can have safe water at home. This is especially so when the quality of the water source is not reliable. We present […]

A Bayesian Belief Network model to link sanitary inspection data to drinking water quality in a medium resource setting in rural Indonesia

Daniel ; Widya Prihesti Iswarani ; Saket Pande ; Luuk Rietveld (2020) Assessing water quality and identifying the potential source of contamination, by Sanitary inspections (SI), are essential to improve household drinking water quality. However, no study link the water quality at a point of use (POU), household level or point of collection (POC), and […]

Combining Sanitary Inspection and Water Quality Data in Western Uganda: Lessons Learned from a Field Trial of Original and Revised Sanitary Inspection Forms

Daniel ; Josphine Gaicugi ; Richard King ; Sara J. Marks ; Giuliana Ferrero (2020) Risk assessment for drinking water systems combines sanitary inspections (SI) and water quality testing and is critical for effectively managing the safety of these systems. SI forms consist of question sets relating to the presence of potential sources and pathways […]

Understanding the effect of socio-economic characteristics and psychosocial factors on household water treatment practices in rural Nepal using Bayesian Belief Networks

Daniel ; Arnt Diener ; Saket Pande ; Sylvia Jansen ; Sara J. Marks ; Regula Meierhofer ; Madan Bhatta ; Luuk Rietveld (2019) About 20 Million (73%) people in Nepal still do not have access to safely managed drinking water service and 22 million (79%) do not treat their drinking water before consumption. Few […]

Socio-environmental drivers of sustainable adoption of household water treatment in developing countries

Daniel ; Sara J. Marks ; Saket Pande ; Luuk Rietveld (2018) Household water treatment (HWT) can effectively reduce exposure to unsafe drinking water at home. Understanding the characteristics of target groups who successfully adopt HWT, such as perception about water quality and usefulness of HWT, income, or parental education, is essential for enhancing the […]
