Analysis of Determinan of Stunting Prevalence among Stunted Toddlers in Indonesia
Get PDFStunting is regarded as one of the nutritional problems in Indonesia. The prevalence of stunted toddlers in Indonesia showed a decline from 37.2 percent in 2013 to 30.8 percent in 2018. However, this was still far from the WHO target, which should be less than 20 percent. There were two objectives of this study, firstly, to determine the general condition of health and nutrition of toddlers as well as the general condition of households in Indonesia. The second one was to examine the determinants of stunting in toddlers. The data were obtained from Riskesdas 2018, Podes 2018, and population projections per district/city from Statistics Indonesia. The method was carried out using descriptive and inferential analysis. The findings showed that all regions in Indonesia, excluding DKI Jakarta, experienced cases of stunted toddlers categorized in high and very high categories. The regression results confirmed that the prevalence of malnutrition toddlers, the prevalence of obese toddlers, complete basic immunization coverage, the prevalence of chronic energy deficiency in women of childbearing age, the proportion of villages that had adequate midwives per population, as well as the coverage of access and clean water sources had a significant effect on the prevalence of stunted toddlers in Indonesia. The case of stunted toddlers was mainly caused by poverty, bad lifestyle, inadequate health services, and low access to clean water. Therefore, the government policies are then needed, especially those related to socio-economic determinants
Participation and Contraceptive Use among Women of Childbearing Age in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta Province: Further Analysis from IDHS 2017
Get PDFParticipation and selection of contraceptive methods may vary by region. It depends on the conditions of the region and the characteristics of the population in the region. Decision- making regarding participation and selection of contraceptive methods is influenced by various factors. Based on this description, this study aims to determine participation and selection of contraceptive use in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta Province based on educational level and number of living children owned by women of childbearing age. This research method uses further analysis of the 2017 Indonesian Health Demographic Survey (IDHS) data for the women of the childbearing age section. The analytical method used is a descriptive analysis by use of cross tabulation with IBM SPSS software. The results of the study indicate that higher education does not necessarily have a high percentage of contraceptive use, however, the variable number of children has an influence on the participation of contraceptives by women of childbearing age. We found that women with ≤ 2 children still want to have more children and tend to use less effective methods (short-term contraceptive method), while women with > 2 children use long-term contraceptive methods as a more effective method because they want to limit the number of children
Identity Crisis As A Threat Among Indonesian Young Generations
Get PDFIn living life as a part of a nation and state, people sometimes feel confused about what is more important between the country and the state, and they sometimes even underestimate the two. The state is an organization of power from the fellowship of human life, while the nation refers to the harmony of human life. A country must have its own national identity that differs from other countries since the national identity of a nation shows its personality. This study aims to observe the condition of national identity among the young generation and attempts to overcome the threat of a national identity crisis. The method used in this study is descriptive analysis with data collection techniques by conducting surveys and interviews. The population in this study consist of private high school and university students. In this study, the sample used was 160 people aged 15-20 years. The results indicated that the young generation is at a critical stage of national identity. It was caused by their inabilities to wisely use technology and a lack of sense of nationalism as well as love for their homeland. This study found many, lacks as it is seen in the students who still used their respective regional languages because they were vulnerable to any trigger according to the perspectives, principles, and goals of each student. Furthermore, based on research results, teenagers tend to be more fond of foreign cultures and consider Indonesian cultural heritage outdated. For this reason, it is necessary to instill a sense of pride and love for the homeland among young people so that the culture remains sustainable. The researchers suggest the Indonesian people, especially the young generation to have more concern about the national identity of the Indonesian nation since it is essential to increase the horizon of knowledge, and it is also hoped that the young generation can apply an understanding on national identity and be able to implement the points of Pancasila in life nation, society, and state
Indonesian International Students’ Identity Post Mobility: How Mobility Affects International Students Beyond Education
Get PDFAs part of the skilled labor group, international students have quite a high potential to decide their country’s future direction. This means there is a need for deeper understanding regarding the views and identity of international students, which are affected by their study tenure abroad. As such, this paper aims to shed new light on how mobility as a form of migration affected the identity of Indonesian international students as a group of migrants. To achieve this purpose, five international students from Indonesia, both current and former, were interviewed in-depth to understand these post-mobility changes in their identity. From these interviews, it was revealed that their experience abroad, not exactly the mobility act itself, is the one with more impact on their identity. Most expressed that their time abroad has changed their perspective and general world-view, such as they feel more like are global citizens or more concerned about environmental and humanity issues. In turn, even though their Indonesian root is still visible, sometimes they are also seen as akin to a stranger in their own home
Fertility Estimation Using the Own Children Method in South Sulawesi Province in 2021
Get PDFThe unavailability of data regarding current fertility conditions complicates the photograph population conditions, especially after the Covid-19 pandemic in South Sulawesi Province. This study aims to produce an estimate of the fertility rate at the district/city level in South Sulawesi Province. Based on the available supporting data, an estimation of the fertility rate in the form of the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) was made using the indirect method, namely the own children method. The calculation is based on the number of women of childbearing age who have ever married and the number of children under five owned by the woman to get the birth rate. Based on these calculations, the results show that all districts/cities in South Sulawesi Province have TFR above the national level. When viewed by region, on the average, districts/cities in the northern part have a higher TFR than districts/cities in the southern part of South Sulawesi Province. With the fertility rate obtained and its distribution, a guideline for the government to formulate appropriate plans and policies is expected as the outcome
Innovation of Utilization of Materials Research and Development Results in the Framework of Fulfilling the Defense Equipment of the Indonesian Army (Case Study of Battlefield Management System)
Get PDFThis study aims to map policy innovations downstream of material R&D results, especially the Battlefield Management System (BMS) in fulfilling the independent and modern defense equipment of the Indonesian Army. This research was conducted using a qualitative method and a case study strategy. The determination of the research location is based on the existence of phenomena in research and development activities carried out within the Indonesian Army. This study used qualitative research methods to explain the research problem in-depth. Determination of informants/resource persons based on purposive sampling resulted in six people consisting of officials who formulate the R&D policies of the Indonesian Army, officials from elements of R&D activities implementing the Battlefield Management System, elements from domestic defense industry actors in the R&D activities of the Battlefield Management System, as well as elements from researchers/teachers and military observers from non-governmental organizations. Furthermore, the data analysis was carried out based on the theories and concepts of public policy and then the data interpretation process was carried out. The result of this study is the public policy innovations in realizing downstream policies. BMS is the result of innovation which is proven to meet the 13 determinants of innovation. Downstream policies play a role in realizing BMS products in the fulfillment of the defense equipment of the Indonesian Army. BMS is a modern defense equipment of the Indonesian Army, fulfilling aspects of complexity, technological progress and speed. Although not-yet fully realized due to the not-yet optimal of the triple helix policy, BMS products based on independence still face problems that there are still conflict of interests, research funding, production costs and indications of weak political will of the Indonesian Army to use domestic products. Recommendations from this research are the need for prioritization, continuous and consistent budgeting and procurement (mass production) and budgeting for superior material R&D results as a form of reward. In addition, there is a need for policies and regulations that can protect the products of material R&D against the competitiveness of similar products from abroad
Intrapersonal Factors Relationship in Adolescent Pregnancy
Get PDFIDHS (2017) shows that there is most unwanted pregnancy among young women in the age group of 15-19 years (16.4%). The unwanted pregnancy can be caused by several factors. Malang Regency had a 15-19 year ASFR of 47.71 in 2018, which was higher than the national target. For this reason, it is significant to conduct research for addressing adolescent pregnancy and to analyze the relationship between interpersonal factors (level of education, employment status, and dating experience) and adolescent pregnancy. The researchers used a case-control design in 50 villages in 15 subdistricts of Malang District. The respondents consisted of 114 adolescent women (20-25 years old) divided into case groups (who had been pregnant at age 19 years) and the control group (who did not get pregnant at age 19 years). They were then interviewed using questionnaires, and the data were analyzed using statistical tests. The results showed that there is a significant relationship between the level of education and adolescent pregnancy (p = 0.000 < α, C = 0.618). On the other hand, there is no relationship between employment status (p = 0.424), dating experience (p = 0.438), and adolescent pregnancy. Therefore, adolescents do not only need to be encouraged to pursue higher education to improve adolescent self-quality but they also need to prevent themselves from pregnancy
Implementation of Guidance and Parenting in the Mental Preparation of Military Academy Cadet Leadership Level IV in Entering the Indonesian Army Organic Unit
Get PDFThe educational process at the Military Academy refers to the regulations of the Ministry of Education and Culture as well as the Ministry of Defense. Military Academy cadets are not only required to have academic abilities, but also have to have physical endurance, good attitudes, and behavior, and characters that reflect the leadership values. The Military Academy which has the task of creating the future of Indonesian Army Military Leaders is managed by combining conventional learning methods and providing guidance and parenting (Bimbingan dan Pengasuhan/Bimsuh). Bimsuh is intended to lead cadets to understand, explore, and implement the values of leadership, the character of a warrior, and the spirit of Sapta Marga by observing, examining, and imitating the Caregivers before entering the Indonesian Army Organic Unit. This study analyzes the influence of Bimsuh on the leadership mentality of Level IV cadets in entering the Indonesian Army Organic Unit. This study uses a qualitative approach with caregivers, managers, and cadets as the informants and a quick survey via google form to cadets. In addition to the primary data, the analysis also came from secondary data, such as the Military Academy roadmap, curriculum, strategic plans for the Cadets Regiment, and Military Teacher Teaching Materials. The results of the study showed that the duration of the implementation of Bimsuh was more than the Lesson Hours. This is different from the existing curriculum with 7 percent teaching hours for Bimsuh. Level IV Military Academy cadets expect to have longer hours of Bimsuh to explore the experiences of Caregivers while serving in the Army Organic Unit. Youth leadership mentality is influenced by Bimsuh which is oriented towards achievement by developing creative and innovative thinking. Guidance and parenting with pressure, sanctions, and authoritarian approaches are not effective if they are not carried out in accordance with the achievement-oriented approach. Level IV cadets feel that they have the instilled leadership values so far. However, the cadets still lack self-confidence, lack the courage to make decisions quickly, and in taking risks. This condition is also experienced by the Caregivers because they do not have experience. Knowledge, skills, and experience while in the Military Academy as capital to adapt quickly in the Indonesian Army Organic Unit
Social, Economic, Demographic Factors and Proximate Determinants of Fertility in Papua Province
Get PDFThe research on proximate determinants of fertility was carried out based on the condition of fertility in Papua which is still high compared to national figures and the use of modern contraception tends to decrease according to several periods of Indonesian Demographic and Health Surveys (IDHS). The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between social, economic, demographic factors and the proximate determinant of fertility in Papua. This study is a secondary data the 2017 IDHS, analysis using descriptive and multivariate with multiple logistic regression test. The results show that Papuan women’s education has a dominant effect on the duration of marriage and the use of contraception. The higher education level will likely increase the use of contraception and the length of marriage. This can be used as a foothold in the planning and implementation of population control programs, in this case, is the regulation and restrictions on future births. Birth control programs through the Population, Family Planning, and Family Development Program need to synergize with other government programs, especially with the Education Program for Papuan women in planning, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating programs of course. An approach to traditional leaders is needed since customs and traditions greatly affect all aspects of Papuan people’s lives. The traditional leader’s advice and suggestions are very well heard by people. The traditional leader’s communication, information dissemination, and education to program targets really need to be strengthened. This method is certainly implemented by all levels of the program area, but especially in the field lines that are very close to the target
Reducing the Consumption of Sugar-Sweetened Beverages among Children and Adolescents
Get PDFThis study focused on the link between sugary beverage intake and health consequences, especially in children and adolescents. Children and adolescents consumed more sugary beverages than the general population, increasing their risk of developing excessive weight gain in the future, which may lead to significant health consequences. While there are few studies about sugary drink consumption among Indonesian children and adolescents, there is a need to control the increasing trend of sugar-sweetened beverage consumption in Indonesia. This study looked into studies from other countries to learn more about the determinants of sugary drink consumption, the challenges of reducing sugary drink consumption, and various policies to reduce sugary drink consumption among children and adolescents. Using a scoping review, this study examined 21 papers that were relevant to the study’s objectives. Several researches have linked excessive sugary drinks to a variety of negative health effects in children and adolescents, including an increase in unhealthy weight gain, the onset of hypertension, an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Determinants of sugary drinks consumption among children and adolescents were socioeconomic status, physical activities, dietary behaviour, parents, and home environment. This study also discovered several policies in different countries intended to reduce sugary drink consumption, such as taxation, institutional changes, and raising awareness. Findings from this study may guide future research on sugar-sweetened beverage consumption among Indonesian children and adolescents, as well as raise the awareness among stakeholders, such as parents, children and adolescents, health professionals, and policymakers, on the need of preventing excessive sugar-sweetened beverage intake
