Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide public health problem related to adverse results of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), kidney failure, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and premature death. The study is aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice toward the prevention and early detection of chronic kidney disease. Two ordinal variables and one nominal response variable with 20 predictor variables were independently fitted. Ordinal multicategories , such as proportional odds, continuation ratio, and partial proportional models for attitude and practice, whereas the baseline multicategory logit model for knowledge was fitted. The findings implied that some predictors have a significant effect on attitude, whereas other covariates have a significant effect on practice. Moreover, as there are two independent logit models for the nominal response, in the first logit model Monthly income and Diabetes2, whereas in the second logit model, Smo_R_CKD3 and Diabetes2 have a significant effect on knowledge. In conclusion, more educated ones have more knowledge and attitude toward the prevention and early detection of chronic kidney disease, also more likely to perform preventive and early detecting practices. People are inadequately informed on the prevention and early detection of CKD, especially those who are with low income, are at risk of developing CKD and its complications.
