Data collection was carried out through structured questionnaires, while statistical analysis utilized the Pearson Chi-Square test. Results indicated a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), confirming a statistically significant association between coping mechanisms and anxiety levels. Patients who employed adaptive coping strategies demonstrated lower levels of anxiety, whereas those relying on maladaptive strategies experienced heightened anxiety. These findings highlight the importance of targeted nursing interventions that focus on strengthening adaptive coping skills to reduce psychological burden. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the need for comprehensive patient education and structured psychosocial support programs to promote resilience, improve coping capacity, and enhance overall psychological well-being in patients undergoing long-term hemodialysis.

This study aims to reveal the representation of adolescents’ emotional crisis in the music video 0X1=LOVESONG (I Know I Love You) by the South Korean boy group TOMORROW X TOGETHER. Using Roland Barthes’ semiotic approach, the research analyzes the denotative, connotative, and mythical meanings of the visual elements presented in the music video. The main focus is on how emotional crises such as loneliness, instability, alienation, and inner escape are represented through visual symbols such as a dark and messy room, a burning car, and a character standing alone in an open field. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method with a critical paradigm, analyzing eight key scenes in the music video that most strongly depict emotional struggles. The scenes were selected based on their symbolic intensity and relevance to adolescent psychological issues. Data analysis was conducted by interpreting visual signs through Barthes’ concepts of denotation, connotation, and myth. The findings reveal that the music video symbolically narrates the psychological struggles of adolescents who are not only physically isolated but also emotionally detached. The visual symbols construct new meanings that represent the social reality of modern youth, burdened by environmental pressures, societal expectations, and the quest for self-identity. Through the myths it creates, the music video functions not only as a medium of entertainment but also as a reflection and critique of adolescents’ psychological vulnerability. Thus, this study contributes to the understanding of emotional representation in popular media, particularly in audio-visual forms such as music videos, while enriching perspectives on how media constructs the narrative of adolescent emotional crises.

The results showed a significant relationship between social support and motivation to recover, with a correlation value of 0.478 and a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that the higher the level of social support patients receive, the greater their motivation to recover. The conclusion of this study is that social support has a positive contribution to increasing the healing motivation of breast cancer patients. Therefore, nursing interventions that actively involve families need to be improved as part of a holistic approach to the care of cancer patients.

Alcohol abuse is a serious issue that not only affects the individual experiencing addiction but also has profound consequences for families, particularly parents. Parents often face significant emotional, social, and psychological burdens when dealing with a child struggling with alcohol dependence. This study aims to gain an in-depth understanding of parental acceptance of children with alcohol addiction. The research employed a qualitative phenomenological approach with two parents as participants, each having a child with alcohol dependence. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, which allowed for a rich exploration of personal experiences, and analyzed using the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) technique. The thematic analysis revealed six major themes: the dynamics of parent–child interactions, emotional responses of parents, changes in the child’s behavior due to addiction, the influence of parents’ past experiences, self-harming behavior as a coping mechanism, and the normalization of the child’s behavior. Findings indicate that parents’ past experiences, including trauma and parenting patterns, strongly influenced how they accepted their child’s condition. Furthermore, maladaptive coping strategies, such as self-harm, emerged as part of the acceptance process when parents faced situations beyond their control. This study underscores the importance of trauma-informed family interventions to help parents develop healthier coping mechanisms. It also highlights the need for comprehensive psychoeducational programs that involve all family members to foster resilience and mutual support. In doing so, the research contributes to the development of more effective psychological support systems for families affected by alcohol addiction.

Work stress is a prevalent and complex phenomenon frequently encountered by inpatient nurses as a result of the intense physical, emotional, and psychological demands inherent in their professional responsibilities. Nurses are required to deliver high-quality care under conditions of time pressure, emotional strain, and patient diversity, which can increase their susceptibility to stress. Individual factors—including age, gender, marital status, years of service, personality type, and self-assessment—play a crucial role in shaping nurses’ capacity to adapt to these pressures and maintain their performance. This study aims to comprehensively describe the influence of individual factors on work stress among inpatient nurses at RSUP Dr. Sitanala in 2025. Employing a quantitative descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach, a total of 34 inpatient nurses were recruited using total sampling. Data were collected using the NIOSH Job Stress Questionnaire, which measures multiple aspects of job-related stress. The results indicate that younger nurses, those with shorter work tenure, and individuals exhibiting type A personality traits are more vulnerable to experiencing high levels of stress compared to their counterparts. These findings underscore that individual characteristics significantly contribute to variations in work stress levels. The study emphasizes the importance of developing responsive human resource management strategies, such as stress management training, mentoring, and supportive work environments, to strengthen resilience and improve nurses’ well-being. By identifying and addressing these individual factors, healthcare organizations can enhance employee retention, promote patient safety, and ensure sustainable quality of care.

Improved knowledge will reduce the prevalence of early marriage and mitigate its negative effects on individuals and society.

The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is a specialized unit in a hospital that provides intensive care and close monitoring for critically ill patients. This unit is equipped with advanced medical equipment such as ventilators and hemodynamic monitors, and has a high staffing ratio to ensure optimal care (Smith & Jones, 2020; Brown et al., 2019; Williams & Green, 2021).  The multidisciplinary team in the ICU, including specialist physicians and trained nurses, works together to meet the medical and psychological needs of patients (Taylor, 2022; Miller & Adams, 2018). According to the WHO (2023), 10–20% of hospital patients require ICU care. In Indonesia, ICU patients account for approximately 15% of total hospital patients (Kusuma, 2021). Data from Dr. Moewardi Regional Hospital (RSUD) shows an increasing trend in ICU patients, primarily due to infectious diseases (Ministry of Health, 2021). Meanwhile, in the ICU of Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital (RSI Sultan Agung Semarang), 1,278 patients were admitted between January and October 2024, with the most cases being respiratory failure (143 patients). This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of conscious patients treated in the ICU and met the inclusion criteria, with 71 respondents.  The research instrument used a validated questionnaire to measure family support, therapeutic communication, and anxiety levels. Data analysis was performed using the Spearman test. Based on the Spearman test, the 71 respondents were found to have the following characteristics: the highest age group was early elderly (36.6%), the highest gender was male (64.8%), the highest education level was high school (45.1%), the highest occupation was 80.3%, high family support (74.6%), good therapeutic communication (90.1%), and mild anxiety (59.2%). There is a significant relationship between family support and patient anxiety levels. Furthermore, therapeutic communication also significantly reduced patient anxiety levels in the ICU at Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital, Semarang.

Families of terminal patients often experience anxiety triggered by the deterioration of the patient’s condition, limited information received, and feelings of loss due to facing separation from their loved ones in a critical situation. This anxiety may occur at varying levels, ranging from mild to panic, and if not properly managed, it can affect the psychological well-being of family members as well as their ability to support the patient. Therefore, appropriate interventions are needed to help reduce the psychological burden of families. One approach that can be applied is mindfulness combined with dhikr, which integrates full awareness with spiritual practice to calm thoughts and emotions. This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach without a control group, involving 20 respondents who were family members accompanying terminal patients in the ICU. Respondents were selected using total sampling according to the inclusion criteria. The research instrument consisted of an anxiety observation questionnaire, and data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that before the intervention, all respondents experienced anxiety at different levels. After the intervention, there was a significant reduction, with 14 respondents (70%) in the mild anxiety category and 6 respondents (30%) reporting no anxiety. The Wilcoxon test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference between pre- and post-intervention. In conclusion, mindfulness and dhikr interventions were effective in reducing anxiety among family members accompanying terminal patients in the ICU. This method can be recommended as a spiritually based psychological support strategy to help families cope with critical situations more calmly and adaptively.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Indonesia.

Specifically, the p-values obtained were 0.035 for family support, 0.000 for economic status, 0.036 for education level, and 0.049 for knowledge level. These findings indicate that social, economic, and educational factors play a crucial role in improving the quality of life of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Therefore, special attention should be given to family support, knowledge enhancement, and better access to economic resources for cancer patients. As a result, their quality of life, especially during chemotherapy, can be improved. Keywords: quality of life, family support, economic status, education level, knowledge level.

This study explains the analysis of the relationship between nurses' knowledge and compliance in implementing fall risk prevention in the inpatient ward of RSI Sultan Agung Banjarbaru. Fall risk is one of the most common patient safety incidents in hospitals, with significant impacts on the physical, psychological, and financial conditions of patients. Data from RSI Sultan Agung Banjarbaru in 2024 recorded three fall incidents, while a preliminary survey showed that 40% of nurses had insufficient knowledge of fall risk prevention and 60% were not compliant with existing preventive procedures. This study aims to determine the relationship between nurses' knowledge and compliance in reducing patient fall risk. The study design used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional method, involving 97 nurses selected through simple random sampling. The instruments used were questionnaires designed to measure nurses' knowledge and compliance. Data were analyzed using Somers’ D test. The results showed that the majority of nurses had good knowledge (87.6%) and high compliance (90.7%). Additionally, a very strong and significant relationship was found between nurses' knowledge and compliance in implementing fall risk prevention (Somers’ D = 0.844; p = 0.000). This indicates that good knowledge of fall risk prevention procedures is strongly related to nurses' compliance in applying preventive measures. Therefore, it is essential for hospitals to provide ongoing education and training to enhance patient safety. With improved knowledge and compliance among nurses, fall risks are expected to be minimized, and patient safety can be better maintained.

Coronary heart disease is one of the major health problems that not only affects the physical condition of patients but also impacts their psychological state, particularly anxiety. Anxiety levels in patients with coronary heart disease usually increase when they are about to undergo invasive medical procedures such as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). Anxiety can be influenced by several factors, including age, gender, educational level, and occupation. High levels of anxiety may worsen the patient’s clinical condition, making appropriate non-pharmacological interventions highly necessary to help reduce anxiety. This study aims to determine the effect of spiritual support in the form of dzikir on the anxiety levels of patients with coronary heart disease. The research design used was a true experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of 30 respondents who were evenly divided into two groups: 15 respondents in the intervention group and 15 respondents in the control group. The sampling technique used was total sampling. The instrument for measuring anxiety was the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS). The results showed that providing spiritual support in the form of dzikir was effective in reducing patient anxiety, with a p-value of 0.001. In addition, there was a significant difference in post-therapy anxiety levels between the control and intervention groups, with a p-value of 0.019 (p < 0.05). These findings demonstrate that dzikir, as a form of spiritual support, can be used as a non-pharmacological intervention to reduce anxiety in patients with coronary heart disease. Thus, spiritual support can be an important component of nursing care for patients in the ICU.

The infant's body temperature after the kangaroo mother care intervention in the one-hour had a p value = 0,000 or <0,05). The infant's body temperature after the kangaroo mother care intervention in the three-hour had a p value = 0,000 or <0,05).

Patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) often experience physiological disturbances caused by both medical conditions and intensive treatment procedures. One of the most common problems encountered is sleep disturbance. Several factors contribute to poor sleep quality in ICU patients, including repeated medical procedures, environmental noise from medical equipment and staff activities, discomfort due to body positioning, frequent interactions with health workers, continuous exposure to lighting, pain, and the underlying disease process. Persistent sleep disturbances can delay the healing process, increase blood pressure, and even elevate the risk of stroke. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between anxiety levels and sleep quality in compos mentis patients in the ICU of Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital Semarang. The research design employed a correlational approach with a cross-sectional method. A total of 30 respondents were selected according to the inclusion criteria. Data were collected using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to measure sleep quality and the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) to assess anxiety levels. The Chi-Square test was used for statistical analysis. The results showed an equal distribution of male and female respondents (15 each). Ten respondents had a post-laparotomy medical diagnosis, and the majority belonged to the late elderly age group (10 respondents). Most respondents experienced moderate anxiety (18 respondents), while poor sleep quality was reported by 17 respondents. The Chi-Square test revealed a p-value of 0.001, indicating a significant relationship between anxiety levels and sleep quality. In conclusion, higher anxiety levels were associated with poorer sleep quality among compos mentis patients in the ICU. These findings highlight the importance of nursing interventions that address both the physical and psychological aspects of patients to improve sleep quality and support recovery.

Hospitalization in preschool children often causes anxiety due to several factors, such as unfamiliar environments, uncomfortable medical procedures, and separation from parents. This condition can negatively affect the child’s psychological state, which may influence both the healing process and adaptation during hospital care. Therefore, it is important to understand the description of anxiety experienced by children during hospitalization so that health workers can provide appropriate interventions. This study aimed to describe the anxiety caused by hospitalization among preschool children admitted to the Parkit Ward of Qolbu Insan Mulia (QIM) Hospital Batang. The study employed a descriptive quantitative design with a purposive sampling technique. A total of 65 preschool children aged 3–6 years who met the inclusion criteria were recruited as samples. The instrument used was the Spence Children’s Anxiety Scale (SCAS) Preschool Parent Report, which was completed by parents to assess the children’s level of anxiety. Data analysis was carried out using frequency distribution to present both the respondents’ characteristics and the level of anxiety. The results showed that most respondents were 5 years old (36.9%) and predominantly male (61.5%). A majority of the respondents had never been hospitalized before (63.1%), making hospitalization a first-time experience that could trigger anxiety. The highest proportion of anxiety levels was in the mild category (38.4%), followed by moderate anxiety (30.7%). Only a small proportion of children experienced severe anxiety. In conclusion, preschool children undergoing hospitalization in the Parkit Ward of QIM Hospital Batang mostly experienced mild to moderate anxiety. These findings provide an important overview for nursing staff in designing interventions to reduce children’s anxiety. Suggested approaches include play therapy, effective communication, and active parental involvement in the care process. With such strategies, it is expected that children’s anxiety can be reduced, making hospitalization a more adaptive experience that supports the recovery process.

Breast cancer is the leading cause of death globally, following heart disease and stroke. One of the most commonly used treatments is chemotherapy, which offers various benefits but also causes physical and mental side effects. One of the psychological side effects often experienced is anxiety. Extreme fear and the threat of death from cancer can affect adherence to treatment. This study aims to assess the relationship between anxiety levels and medication adherence in breast cancer chemotherapy patients at RSUD Semarang. This research used a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational method, involving 110 participant samples. The questionnaires used for data collection were DASS-42 to measure anxiety levels and MMAS-8 to assess medication adherence. The study was conducted from June 30 to July 31, 2025, in the Oncology Center room of RSUD Sultan Agung Semarang. Bivariate analysis using Pearson's correlation test showed a p-value of 0.001 < 0.05, indicating a significant relationship between anxiety levels and medication adherence in breast cancer chemotherapy patients. The measured correlation coefficient of -0.325** shows a moderately strong negative relationship, meaning that the higher the anxiety level, the lower the patient's adherence to medication. Based on these findings, it is recommended that nurses in the oncology unit provide additional education and support to patients regarding their anxiety. Effective psychological support can help patients reduce anxiety and increase adherence to treatment, which in turn can improve the outcomes of chemotherapy treatment.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability, resulting in a decline in the quality of life of its sufferers. In addition to physical impairments, stroke patients often experience anxiety, which can hinder the recovery process and lower overall quality of life. This study aims to analyze the relationship between anxiety levels and the quality of life of stroke patients. The research design used a correlational descriptive approach with a cross-sectional method. The study population consisted of stroke patients receiving care or rehabilitation in healthcare facilities, with a total sampling technique for sampling. The research instruments included an anxiety questionnaire and a quality of life questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using Somers’ d statistical test. The results showed that most stroke patients experienced moderate anxiety and had low quality of life. The Somers’ d test indicated a significant relationship between anxiety and the quality of life of stroke patients (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that the higher the anxiety level, the lower the quality of life perceived by the patients. Therefore, healthcare providers are expected to not only focus on physical therapy but also provide psychological interventions to reduce anxiety, thus improving the quality of life of stroke patients.

Psychological violence against children remains a critical issue that is often overlooked because it does not leave visible physical injuries, yet its long-term consequences can significantly hinder children’s emotional, social, and academic development. Addressing this problem requires not only legal and institutional measures but also preventive efforts at the family and community levels. The Community Service Program (KKN) entitled “Safe Home Supporting Child Development” in Desa Nusawungu was designed as a community-based educational initiative to raise parents’ awareness of the importance of creating an emotionally safe home environment. The program was implemented through the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) method, which integrated structured material presentations, individual reflections using digital forms, and interactive group discussions. This combination allowed participants to gain knowledge, critically reflect on their own parenting practices, and share experiences with peers. The results revealed a notable increase in parents’ awareness of the detrimental effects of psychological violence on children’s well-being, their readiness to adopt positive parenting strategies, and their ability to identify challenges commonly faced in daily child-rearing practices. Moreover, participants expressed enthusiasm for sustaining similar activities in the future, highlighting the importance of continuous learning and the establishment of a parent learning community. The program demonstrated that simple, low-cost, and locally adapted interventions can effectively enhance parenting literacy, reduce the risk of psychological violence, and strengthen the developmental foundation of children during their golden age. These findings suggest that empowering parents through participatory education can serve as a replicable model for other communities facing similar challenges, thus contributing to the broader goal of ensuring children’s rights to grow in a safe and nurturing environment.
