Methods: This study used mix method sequential expalantory, a combining of a quantitative and qualitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The quantitative approach using questionnaire to measure 4 variables and then qualitative approach by document review and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to get more comprehensive data broadly and in depth the variables.

Results: Out of 67 respondents, the general intention was moderate (73%), low (15%), and high (12%). The results of the T-test showed an attitude significance of 0.205; subjective norm 0.001; behavioral control 0.004. The F test showed a p-value of 0.000. The coefficient of determination showed the effect of the three variables on the intention of 67.4%.
