Abstract

This study aimed to study the impact of single-use plastic awareness programme on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of lower form students in two schools in Perak. The study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design and questionnaires, involving 200 students (100 control group, 100 treatment group). Descriptive and inferential analysis (one-way ANOVA, t-test) were used. Before the SUPAP, both groups showed high levels of knowledge (M=3.84, SP=0.42) and attitude (M=4.19, SP=0.42), while practice (M=3.29, SP=0.61) was moderate. Pre-ANOVA showed no significant difference in knowledge (F=1.03, p>0.31), but significant differences in attitude (F=6.01, p 0.31), but there were differences in attitude (t=2.45, p
