[ABSTRAKIndonesia memiliki angka prevalensi tinggi akan tuberkulosis (TB). Berbagai langkah sudah dilakukan oleh pemerintah Indonesia dan berdasarkan penilaian Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) Indonesia sudah berhasil mengurangi jumlah kasus TB. Namun, hasil Riset Kesehatan Dasar 2010 menunjukkan bahwa penderita TB di Indonesia masih banyak. Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan suatu studi mengenai pengetahuan, sikap, dan perilaku tuberkulosis yang kali ini dihubungkan dengan kondisi sosio-ekonomi responden. Studi dilakukan dengan metode cross-sectional terhadap Ibu di 11 kelurahan di Jakarta Timur, pada Oktober hingga Desember 2011, dengan menggunakan polygonal random sampling. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada hubungan bermakna antara kesediaan responden untuk mengikuti pengobatan TB dengan kondisi sosio-ekonomi yang dinilai yaitu tingkat pendidikan, status kerja, dan tingkat penghasilan. Sementara, tingkat pendidikan memiliki hubungan bermakna dengan perilaku mencari pengobatan TB (PR = 1,033 (CI=1,011-1,054), p=0,002). Status kerja memiliki hubungan bermakna dengan perilaku mencari pengobatan TB (PR = 0,967 (CI=0,943-0,991), p=0,002). Dan tingkat penghasilan memiliki hubungan bermakna dengan perilaku mencari pengobatan TB (PR = 1,035 (CI=1,009-1,062), p=0,003).
