Meta-Analysis of the Effects of Stress and Anxiety on Alcohol Consumption Behavior in Early Adults
Full text linkBackground: Consumption of alcoholic beverages is a risk factor for health problems globally. The consumption of alcoholic beverages is very influential on the effect of calmness in people who have anxiety and stress disorders. The effect occurs because alcohol is classified as a psychoactive substance that affects nerves in the brain with the effect of dependence on the dose consumed. This study aims to assess the effect size of stress and anxiety on increased alcohol consumption behavior in early adulthood using a meta-analysis of primary studies conducted by the previous authors.
Subjects and Method: This study was a meta-analysis with the following PICO, population: Early adults (18-25 years). Intervention: Stress and Anxiety. Comparison: no stress and no anxiety. Result: Increased Alcoholic Beverages Consumption Behavior. 9 The articles used in this study were obtained from three databases namely Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scopus. The keywords for searching for articles were stress AND (Anxiety OR nervousness OR discomfort) AND ("consumption of drinking alcohol" OR "Alcohol use"). The included articles were full-text English with a cross-sectional study design from 2012 to 2022. Article selection was conducted using the PRISMA flow diagram. Articles were analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 app.
Results: A total of 9 cross-sectional case studies from Europe, Asia, North America, Africa, and Australia were selected for systematic review and meta-analysis. 7 studies discovered that stress increased alcoholic beverage consumption behavior in early adults by 1.29 times compared to low stress, and the result of the meta-analysis was statistically significant (aOR= 1.29; CI 95%= 1.31-1.47; p< 0.001) with the heterogeneity of I2= 84%, p<0.001. 7 studies of the effect of anxiety on increased alcoholic beverage consumption behavior in early adults showed anxiety increased alcoholic beverage consumption behavior in early adults by 1.59 times compared to low anxiety. The result of the meta-analysis was statistically significant (aOR= 1.59; CI 95%= 1.22-2.07; p= 0.001) with heterogeneity of I2=96%, p< 0.001.

Effects of Parental Monitoring and Communication on the Prevention of Sexual Risk Behavior in Adolescents: Meta-Analysis
Full text linkBackground: Risky sexual deviations in adolescents are habits that include having sex at an early age, using condoms that are inconsistent, having more than one sexual partner or being a commercial sex worker. Communication between parents and children plays an important role in fostering the relationship between the two and parents who are less able to communicate with their children will cause relationship conflict so that it can have an impact on adolescent sexual behavior. This study aims to estimate the influence of parental monitoring and parental communication on sexual risk behavior in adolescents based on the results of primary research.
Subjects and Method: This was a review of meta-analytic studies and this article was obtained from databases namely PubMed, Google Scholar, Elsevier, Spinger Link and Science Direct. The articles used in this study are articles published from 2012-2022. The article search was carried out by considering the eligibility criteria defined using the PICO model, namely P: Adolescents, I: Parental monitoring and parental communication C: No parental monitoring and no parental communication O: Sexual risky behavior. The articles included in this research are full text articles with a cross-sectional study design. This article was analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 application.
Results: A total of 17 cross-sectional studies from 5 Americas, 1 Europe, 2 Asia and 9 Africa with a sample size of 13,404. The results of the meta-analysis showed that adolescents with parental monitoring reduced risky sexual behavior 0.84 times compared to those without parental monitoring, but the effect was not statistically significant (aOR=0.84; 95% CI=0.61-1.17; p=0.300), adolescents without parental communication has the possibility of having risky sexual behavior 1.26 times compared to adolescents who communicate with parents (aOR=1.26; 95% CI 0.81-1.95; p= 0.310) which is not statistically significant. The results of research on parental monitoring showed that there was high heterogeneity (I2=74%; p=0.001) and parental communication (I2=90%; p<0.001), so that the average effect estimation calculation on the forest plot used the random effect model.
Conclusion: Parental monitoring and parental communication have no effect on sexual risk behavior in adolescents.
Keywords: parental monitoring, parental communication, sexual risk behavior, youth

Interviews were conducted with 7 people who had not received the COVID-19 vaccination at all, 4 people who had received the second dose of COVID-19 vaccination, 4 people who had received the third dose of COVID-19 vaccination, and key informant 1 City health center promotion worker Palu, Head of the surveillance section of the Palu City Health Service and immunization as well as the COVID-19 Task Force, as well as 1 additional informant from the family.
Results: It can be seen that the lack of knowledge has a great impact on attitudes towards behavior from the community, in which in addition to believing in negative news about the COVID-19 vaccination, there is also the influence of the subjective norm variable, namely the prohibition from the family in carrying out the COVID-19 vaccination, but in the predictive variable behavioral control had little impact on the use of the COVID-19 vaccination in Palu City.
Conclusion: In this study it was concluded that the application of the Theory of Planned Behavior on the use of COVID-19 vaccination in Palu City, Central Sulawesi, had an effect especially in terms of attitude towards behavior variables and subjective norm variables.
