Abstract
Background Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) can impair cognitive function in children. Short-term memory
is used to memorize new information in a short time, it is important in daily life, especially in the learning
process in school. The better the short-term memory is, the better the learning ability which then affects the
learning performance. Objective To determine the relationship between IDA and short-term memory and
school learning performance in adolescents. Methods Cross-sectional study used analytical observational
methods on 120 adolescents aged 13-16 years in Semarang. Iron deficiency anemia was determined by
history, physical and laboratory tests. Short-term memory was assessed using Scenery Picture Memory
Test (SPMT). Academic learning performance was determined from the mean scores of report book grades
for Indonesian, Mathematics, English, and Science in the last semester. Chi-square test was used for data
analysis. Results It were boys 25.8% and girls 74.2%. IDA was diagnosed in 10.9%. Overall, we found that
55% subjects had "good" short term memory and 61.75% had high academic learning performance in all
subjects of study. In the group without IDA it was found that 68.9% had good short term memory and 60.5%
had high learning performance, while in the IDA group 46% had good short term memory and 38.5% had
high learning performance, but this was not statistically significant. Conclusion The results of this study
show that short-term memory test scores are linear with school performance where IDA group had lower
score although the numbers are not statistically significant.
