A Path Analysis of Environmental and Social Factors Affecting Feeding and Swallowing Abilities in Preschool Children
No full textBackground: Environmental and social factors influence the feeding and swallowing abilities of preschool children. However, understanding of how these factors interact to form eating and swallowing abilities is still limited. This study assesses the influence of environmental and social factors on children\u27s feeding and swallowing abilities using various environmental and social indicators.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Surakarta, Central Java (April–August 2025), with 81 purposively selected children. Feeding and swallowing ability was the dependent variable, while family, school, economic, social, and parenting factors served as predictors. Data were collected through interviews, observations, questionnaires, and the Dysphagia Disorder Survey, and analyzed using path analysis in Stata 13.
Results: Children’s feeding and swallowing abilities were significantly associated with economic conditions and food availability (b = 2.09; 95% CI: 0.08–2.58; p = 0.037), parental support and social factors (b = 3.16; 95% CI: 0.79–3.41; p = 0.002), as well as feeding practices (b = 3.27; 95% CI: 0.82–3.27; p = 0.001). Indirectly, children’s abilities were also influenced by social factors, parental support, appropriate feeding practices, school and peer environment, and social support.
Conclusion: Economic conditions, parental support, and feeding practices have a direct influence on children’s feeding and swallowing abilities. In contrast, social factors, parenting styles, educational environments, and social support exert indirect effects. The main implication for health practices is the need for integrated interventions involving family economic support, parental education, social systems, and learning environments to support the development of feeding and swallowing abilities in preschool children
The Relationship Between Computer Vision Syndrome and Sleep Quality of Undergraduate Nursing Students
No full textBackground: Complex vision problems experienced when using digital devices are called Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). The use of digital devices at night affects the delay of the circadian phase and the suppression of melatonin as a sleep facilitator which causes changes in sleep quality and optimizes cognitive abilities. This study aims to determine the relationship between computer vision syndrome and student sleep quality.
Methods: This research uses a correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. Sampling used proportionate stratified random sampling technique with a total of 198 respondents. The incidence of CVS was measured by the Computer Vision Syndrome-Questionnaire (CVS-Q) and sleep quality by the PSQI (Pitssburgh Sleep Quality Index) questionnaire. Bivariate analysis was conducted with CVS as the independent variable and sleep quality as the dependent variable, using the continuity correction test.
Results: The research results show that 80.8% of respondents experienced CVS-Positive and 80.8% of respondents experienced poor sleep quality. The statistical test results obtained p-value = <0.001 (< α 0.05) with an OR value of 71.25.
Conclusion: Thus, it can be concluded that computer vision syndrome is related to student sleep quality, where positive computer vision syndrome has the potential to cause disruption to student sleep quality 71.25 compared to students who have negative CVS. Nursing students are advised to limit excessive use of digital devices and to adopt healthy habits in screen usage to prevent CVS, which can affect sleep quality
Taizé Meditation as an Intervention to Reduce Anxiety in First-Year Nursing Students
No full textBackground: Taizé meditation is a form of meditative worship that fosters inner peace through repetitive chants and musical prayers. This practice is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing anxiety. Anxiety itself is characterized by distressing and uncomfortable emotions that can disrupt a person\u27s sense of equilibrium, manifesting as tension, restlessness, fear, nervousness, sweating, and related symptoms. The objective of this study is to examine the impact of Taizé meditation on anxiety levels.
Methods: This study utilized a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The population consisted of 99 individuals, and 33 participants were selected through purposive sampling. The instrument used was the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS)-42, specifically the 14-item anxiety subscale. Data were analyzed using the Paired T-Test.
Results: The average anxiety score prior to Taizé meditation was 3.73, which decreased to 1.76 after the intervention. Statistical analysis using the Paired T-test revealed a p-value of <0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference.
Conclusion: These findings suggest that Taizé meditation has a significant effect on reducing anxiety levels. Students are encouraged to practice Taizé meditation independently as a strategy to manage anxiety
Early Detection of Mental Health in Hypertensive Elderly: Analyzing Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Levels
No full textBackground: Elderly with hypertension are highly susceptible to psychological disorders, such as depression and anxiety, due to complex physiological and psychosocial changes. However, comprehensive studies examining the interplay of stress, anxiety, and depression within this population remain limited. The purpose of this study is to analyze mental health problems: Depression, Anxiety, Stress in the elderly with hypertension in the Mojosongo Region of Surakarta.
Methods: This research method utilised a descriptive analytical survey design with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with a sample size of 39 elderly people who met the inclusion criteria, namely (1) elderly and (2) having systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg. The research instrument used the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21), and data analysis was performed using Pearson\u27s correlation test.
Results: Mild depression was dominated by mild hypertension (63.6%), and moderate (76.9%) p=0.571. Mild anxiety was dominated by mild hypertension (54.5%), moderate (76.9%), and severe (75%) p=0.899, mild stress was dominant in mild hypertension (68.2%), moderate (69.2%), and severe (50%) p=0.719.
Conclusion: This study found no significant association between the levels of depression, anxiety, or stress and the severity of hypertension. However, given the high prevalence of psychological distress observed in the descriptive findings, healthcare professionals should prioritize mental health screening in elderly patients. Managing these psychological conditions remains crucial for improving overall quality of life, even if it does not directly correlate with blood pressure reduction

Academic stress is the pressure experienced in the academic environment and is influenced by internal and external factors. This study aims to identify factors associated with nursing students\u27 academic stress levels during online lectures in the Covid-19 pandemic.
Methods: The research approach was quantitative with correlational analytic design and cross-sectional method. The research sample was selected by random sampling, involving 256 respondents. Data were collected using a Likert scale-based questionnaire and analysed with Chi-Square and Kendall\u27s Tau statistical tests.
Results: Gender has no relationship to the level of academic stress of nursing students (p = 0.164); while procrastination is related to the level of academic stress with a moderate correlation and positive relationship direction (p = <0.001; r = 0.285). In addition, parental social support also affects the level of academic stress with a moderate correlation and negative relationship direction (p = <0.001; r = 0.329).
Conclusion: Factors associated with academic stress levels of nursing students are procrastination and parental social support. It is recommended that educational institutions implement targeted interventions to minimize academic procrastination and strengthen parental support systems as strategic efforts to manage academic stress among nursing students
