Abstract

Background: Exclusive breastfeeding has an important role in preventing stunting among children due to chronic malnutrition. According to Indonesia Health Profile 2020, approximately 33.9% of children under six months were not exclusively breastfed. One of the challenges to achieving successful exclusive breastfeeding comes from socio-cultural aspects. Method: This mixed-methods study examined the socio-cultural context of barriers to exclusive breastfeeding among mothers. For a cross-sectional study in Karanganyar District, Central Java Province, a total of 706 participating mothers with children aged between 6–59 months were interviewed using a structured questionnaire in 2021. In addition, in-depth interviews with mothers were conducted to enrich the findings related to the obstacles in giving exclusive breastfeeding. Result: The binary logistic regression found that male children (AOR= 1.64, 95%CI (1.06, 2.56), children living in low-income households (AOR= 2.48, 1.25, 4.92), children with low-educated mothers (AOR= 8.84, 95%CI (3.83, 20.36), children with working mothers (AOR= 6.45, 95%CI (3.79, 10.98), children with pre lacteal feeding (AOR= 5.67, 95%CI (2.33, 13.75) were more likely to have nonexclusive breastfeeding. This study also revealed that 36,1% of mothers in Karanganyar District gave honey as pre-lacteal feeding to the newborn, which hindered exclusive breastfeeding practices. The qualitative approach also confirms this finding. Conclusion: Therefore, it is important to strengthen health promotion programs related to exclusive breastfeeding to mothers and the family through the life cycle approach based on the local context.

Abstract

Background: The high prevalence of smoking among adolescents is a serious concern for society and the government. Many studies have been conducted to examine the reasons why adolescents start smoking and how to prevent smoking behavior among adolescents. In the midst of high rates of smoking behavior among adolescents, it is also very interesting to study smoking refusal among adolescents which can later provide information for prevention programs in helping adolescents avoid smoking behavior. Objectives: To describe the phenomenon regarding the rejection of adolescent smoking behavior. Methods: This research is qualitative research that uses in-depth interviews with 17 teenagers as informants. This research was conducted in the District of Sampang Madura from February 2021 to June 2021. The selection of informants then followed the information from the informants who completed the interview (snowball sampling). Results: Based on the results of the study it was found that adolescents who have peers who do not smoke tend to easily reject smoking behavior. Refusal to smoke by adolescents includes health factors, impact on quality of life, societal norms, and appearance. The existence of orders from the family environment to avoid smoking behavior was also mentioned by adolescents as a reason not to smoke. Conclusions: Adolescent rejection of smoking behavior can be used as a reference in smoking behavior prevention programs and also as material for evaluating intervention programs that can help adolescents to quit smoking.

Abstract

The concept of healthy-sick is no longer only related to the bio-psycho-social-spiritual aspects but also includes the physical and mental aspects. Chronic disease is a long-term and often incurable condition that requires continued management. Medical care, such as medication and surgery, is vital in managing chronic diseases. Non-medical treatments, such as positive thinking, a healthy diet, and fasting, can also significantly impact managing chronic diseases. Writing this article uses a library study or literature review. A holistic approach to health care can improve patient outcomes by improving physical and mental health, promoting better care coordination and communication, improving self-management skills, addressing psychosocial and spiritual needs, and providing patient-centric care.

Abstract

Background: Mental health problems in adolescents or grade school students saw an increased prevalence in 2018 compared to 2013. Some causes of such an increase were poor knowledge and low self-efficacy in relation to help-seeking behaviour in adolescents, especially those attending rural schools. Preventive and promotive efforts can be applied to increase knowledge and self-efficacy in relation to help-seeking behaviour in adolescents. Using a film for health promotion is highly suitable for altering the behaviour of adolescents. Objective: This study aims to analyse differences in the levels of mental health knowledge and self-efficacy among students in rural schools in relation to help-seeking behaviour using the animated film "Kanca Cilik." Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental, time-series design and a control group. The population of this study consisted of 156 students aged 12–19 years who attended rural schools. Samplingwas conducted using the purposive sampling technique. Results: The characteristics of respondents of the intervention and control groups had a p value > 0.05. The knowledge and self-efficacy of the intervention group in relation to help-seeking behaviour had a p value < 0.05. Meanwhile, the knowledge and self-efficacy of the control group in relation to help-seeking behaviour had a p value > 0.05. Conclusion: There was an equality of respondent characteristics in the intervention and control groups. There was a difference in the mean values before and after film screening intervention, but there was no difference in the control group.

Abstract

Background: An epidemiological study at SMPN 41 Surabaya revealed that approximately 50% of 7thand 8th-grade adolescent girls have poor daily eating behavior. Around 19 female students (63.3%) experience oral health problems related to anemia during menstruation. According to the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), subjective norms were found to have the most influence on forming intentions toward good daily eating behavior. Subjective norms refer to the influence or pressures from the surrounding environment. Within the school environment, teachers play a role as one of the subjective norms that affect the decision-making of female students regarding their daily eating behavior. Aims: To empower teachers to conduct examinations for anemia symptoms and clinical signs of oral health problems during menstruation among adolescent girls and to record their findings in the manual book. Methods: This program provides counseling and training on examining anemia symptoms and oral health problems to 23 teachers, utilizing a manual book as a medium. The effectiveness of the activity was evaluated using pre-test and post-test assessments. The scores obtained from both tests were analyzed using paired sample tests to assess the teachers' knowledge and skills improvement. Results: Based on the scores obtained from the pre-test and post-test assessments, it was found that the level of knowledge and skills of the teachers after the empowerment (Mean= 73.26; SD= 10.72) was higher compared to before the empowerment (Mean= 61.95; SD= 15.5). Statistically, it was determined that teacher empowerment significantly (p<0.05) improved their knowledge and skills in examining anemia symptoms and oral health problems. Conclusion: Empowering teachers through counseling and training significantly enhances their knowledge and abilities in examining anemia symptoms and oral health problems.

Abstract

Background: Pregnant women who drink herbal medicine can increase the risk of meconium amniotic fluid, and meconium amniotic fluid is a risk factor for asphyxia in newborns. Objectives: Identify three forms of culture in drinking herbal medicine in pregnant women, namely the mother's values and ideas about drinking herbal medicine, herbal drinking activities, and material on the culture of drinking herbal medicine. Methods: This research is a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. Informants in this study consisted of pregnant women and key informants consisted of families of pregnant women, cadres, ustadzah, midwives, and herbal medicine providers. Results: The cultural forms of drinking herbal medicine include: 1) Values and Ideas. Drinking herbal medicine for pregnant women is still practiced because of their subjective norms and normative beliefs from the surrounding environment. All informants believed that herbal medicine could provide benefits rather than negative effects, and only midwives stated that herbal medicine had negative effects, namely meconium amniotic fluid, and even asphyxia. 2) The activity of drinking herbal medicine. Pregnant women drink herbal medicine from the beginning of pregnancy until delivery. The frequency of taking herbal medicine was various. Religious figures and community leaders have an important role in the culture of drinking herbal medicine. 3) Herbal ingredients. The herbs consumed by each informant were different, there were informants who consumed homemade herbs and bought them at the market. Conclusions: The culture of drinking herbal medicine is still carried out because the local community's belief about the benefits of herbal medicine is still high, and lack of public knowledge about the effects of drinking herbal medicine on pregnant women.
