Perbedaan penerapan teknik relaksasi nafas dalam dan terapi murottal al-quran terhadap tingkat kecemasan lansia
Background: Anxiety is an unpleasant feeling accompanied by nervous behavior or somatic complaints and rumination. The elderly are a group that is vulnerable to anxiety due to a decline in the body's system. One of the nonpharmacological therapies to reduce anxiety is with deep breathing relaxation techniques and Al-Quran murottal therapy.
Purpose: To determine the differences in the application of deep breathing relaxation therapy and Al-Quran murottal therapy on the level of anxiety in the elderly.
Method: A quantitative, quasy experiment research design with a two group pretest-posttest design approach. The population in the study were elderly people who experienced anxiety at UPTD PSLU Tresna Werdha Natar, namely 30 people with an intervention group of 15 people and a control group of 15 people.
Results: A difference in the level of anxiety before and after the intervention in the group given deep breathing relaxation techniques with a p-value = 0.000, there was a difference in the level of anxiety before and after Al-Quran murottal therapy with a p-value = 0.000. The results of the independent t-test analysis obtained a p-value = 0.40.
Conclusion: No significant difference in the average anxiety between the deep breathing relaxation therapy group and the Al-Quran murottal therapy group. Keyword: Al-Quran Murottal Therapy; Anxiety; Deep Breathing Relaxation Technique. Pendahuluan: Kecemasan merupakan kondisi perasaan yang tidak menyenangkan yang disertai dengan perilaku gugup maupun keluhan somatik dan perenungan. Lansia merupakan kelompok yang rentan mengalami kecemasan dikarenakan adanya penurunan pada sistem tubuh. Salah satu terapi non farmakologi untuk menurunkan kecemasan adalah dengan teknik relaksasi nafas dalam dan terapi murottal Al-Quran.
Tujuan: Untuk mengetahui perbedaan penerapan terapi relaksasi nafas dalam dan terapi murottal Al-Quran terhadap tingkat kecemasan lansia. Jenis penelitian adalah kuantitatif, desain penelitian Quasy Eksperiment dengan pendekatan two group pretest-postest design. Populasi dalam penelitian adalah lansia yang mengalami kecemasan di UPTD PSLU Tresna Werdha Natar yaitu sebanyak 30 orang dengan kelompok intervensi sebanyak 15 orang dan kelompok kontrol sebanyak 15 orang.
Hasil: Terdapat perbedaan tingkat kecemasan sebelum dan sesudah intervensi pada kelompok yang diberikan teknik relaksasi nafas dalam dengan p-value = 0.000, terdapat perbedaan tingkat kecemasan sebelum dan sesudah terapi murottal Al-Quran dengan p-value = 0.000. Hasil analisis Uji t independent didapatkan p-value = 0.40.
Simpulan: Tidak ada perbedaan, rata-rata kecemasan antara kelompok terapi relaksasi nafas dalam dengan kelompok terapi murottal Al-Quran.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Occupational Therapy Drawing Activities and TAK Perceptual Stimulation on Hearing Hallucination Changes in Schizophrenia Patients
Hallucinations are one type of mental disorder in which the patient experiences changes in sensory perception, feeling false sensations in the form of sound, sight, taste, touch or smell. The most common hallucination is auditory hallucination, reachingapproximately 70%. The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of drawing activity occupational therapy as the intervention group and perceptual stimulation group activity therapy as the control group on changes in auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia patients at Aulia Rahma Clinic in 2024. This study design used a quantitative study with a Quasi-Experimental design, Two Group Pretest-Posttest approach. The number of samples was 38 (19 intervention groups and 19 control groups) with purposive sampling technique. This study was conducted by conducting pretest and posttest (Drawing Activity Occupational Therapy and Group Activity Therapy Session I-V). The data were analyzed using paired t-test and independent t-test with a significance level of 95% (p-value < 0,05). The result indicated that the significant effectiveness of both therapies in reducing symptoms of auditory hallucinations with p-value <0,001. Drawing activity occupational therapy showed significantly greater symptom reduction compared to group activity therapy. Both therapies are recommended to overcome auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia patients, with special consideration on the effectiveness of group activity therapy. It is suggested that Aulia Rahma Clinic develop a comprehensive occupational therapy program, with a focus on drawing activities
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
