Rehabilitation application program for obesity adolescent using structural equation modelling

Obesity is one of the most important public health problems of the late twentieth century. Report by World Health Organization (2015) found the national prevalence of obesity in Indonesia was increased from 12.2% in 2007 to 16.8% in 2015 and reached 11.9% for the aged 6 to 12 years old.
