Regarding personal hygiene, as many as 60 people (76.92%) have good knowledge, 43 (55.13%) are good and 59 (75.64%) have good practices. The results of statistical analysis showed that there was no relationship between the level of knowledge (p = 0.08), attitude (p = 0.52) and practice (p = 0.70) of personal hygiene with the incidence of pediculosis capitis. It was concluded that knowledge, attitude and practice of personal hygiene in Pondok Pesantren X was not a risk factor for the incidence of pediculosis capitis.
