Abstract

The main objective of this study is to explore the quality of youth in East Kalimantan Province, Indonesia. Using survey data the study sets out four variables i.e. quality of the youth that is reflected by indicators related to drug abusive behaviour and youth educational level; indicators represent the role of family of the youth; knowledge regarding the healthy and responsible way of life; and indicators to reflect variable of economic status of the family. Research problems in the study are: first, to determine whether the role of the family are significant in explaining the life quality of the youth; second, to discover if knowledge regarding healthy way of life are significant towards the youth' quality of life; and third, to figure out the impact of economic status towards the life quality of the youth. This study uses annual data on youth in East Kalimantan Province since 2010-2015 published by National Family Planning Coordinating Board (BKKBN), Indonesia. The hypothesis developed in the study were tested using Variance-Based Partial Least Square (SEM PLS), and the result showed that weighted indicators in variables are valid and reliable with the goodness of fit accounted for 0.98.
