Old age is said to be the final stage of development in the human life cycle which experiences various health problems and is at high risk of dangerous diseases. Health problems that occur in the elderly in general are a decrease in organ function, changes in lifestyle, diet and physical activity which are often the main factors in degenerative diseases including hypertension which disrupts blood flow. This hypertension often occurs in the elderly where the blood pressure is at the upper limit ( Systole) is more than 140 mmHg and lower limit blood pressure (diastole) is more than 90 mmHg. One non-pharmacological treatment that can improve the flow of oxygen in the blood is laughter therapy. The aim of this research is to analyze the effect of laughter therapy using comedy videos on reducing blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension at the Tiban Baru Community Health Center, Batam City. The Batam City Health Service noted that hypertension occurs more frequently in elderly people aged 60-70 years and over with the highest number being 9,282 people at the Tiban Baru Community Health Center, Batam City.

The sample provided used the purpose sampling method with a total research sample of 20 respondents. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is an effect of laughter therapy on reducing blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension.

Finishing workstations have two activities: cleaning and painting. Irregular work layouts cause time wasted just to move the product to be worked on. In addition, there is no permanent work layout arrangement or placement of work objects so that every day there is a change in work layout makes workers have to make adjustments again, so this will waste time and will reduce the productive time of each worker at the painting work station. The purpose of this study is to design an improvement layout that can be used for cleaning and painting work using the motion study method. The results of the motion study analysis obtained a repair work layout combining two cleaning and painting jobs into one repair layout with the placement of workpieces and work equipment according to the needs of the right and left hands, so that the resulting work movement is more effective and increases cycle time efficiency.

This study investigates the impact of a Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) intervention on student motivation and academic self-efficacy in junior high schools in Indonesia. The research utilized a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test assessments to measure changes in intrinsic motivation and academic self-efficacy among the participants. A total of 200 students were divided into an experimental group, which participated in the SEL program, and a control group, which did not receive the intervention. The SEL program, delivered over one semester, focused on improving students' emotional regulation, social skills, and self-awareness, with an emphasis on autonomy, competence, and relatedness. The results demonstrated significant improvements in both intrinsic motivation and academic self-efficacy for the experimental group, with average increases of +19.2 and +17.4 points, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the SEL intervention had a significant positive effect, with t-values of 7.56 (motivation) and 6.32 (self-efficacy) and p-values less than 0.01. In contrast, the control group exhibited minimal changes in both variables. These findings suggest that SEL interventions can foster a more balanced approach to learning by enhancing both emotional and academic development. The study highlights the importance of incorporating SEL programs into the curriculum to support students' holistic growth and academic success.

A mockup is a miniature or model of a building that will be made or has already been made, in order to facilitate visualization of the design results.
