Abstract

Background: Adolescence is a transitional phase from childhood to adulthood, characterized by various biological, psychological, and social changes. Adolescents living in coastal regions are exposed to social-environmental risk factors that can affect their emotional wellbeing, primarily due to the demanding and unpredictable nature of coastal communities. These challenging and volatile circumstances can have a negative impact on adolescents’ emotions, making them more vulnerable to mental and emotional disorders. Objective: This study aimed to examine the self-concept and its differences according to sociodemographic factors among adolescents residing in coastal areas of Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional design was employed for this study, which involved 644 adolescents living in coastal regions of Indonesia, specifically in the West Sumatra and Bali provinces. The Tennessee Self Concept Scale (TSCS) 2nd Edition Short Form was used to assess self-concept from August to September 2022. Descriptive statistics, Independent-t-test, and One-way ANOVA were utilized for data analysis. Results: The findings revealed that adolescents in coastal areas had a high level of self-concept. A statistically significant difference was discovered in the overall self-concept according to gender (p = 0.002). Similarly, a significant difference was observed in the physical domain based on class level (p = 0.019). Regarding the personal domain, significant differences were identified according to age (p = 0.030), class level (p = 0.030), parent's marital status (p = 0.030), father's education (p = 0.05), and family income (p = 0.01). Furthermore, in the family domain, significant differences were found based on parents’ marital status (p <0.001) and adolescents’ residence status (p = 0.002). Additionally, a significant difference in the academic domain was observed with respect to gender (p = 0.001). However, no significant differences were noted in the moral ethics and social domains across all sociodemographic variables (p >0.05). Conclusion: This study emphasizes the need for attention from various stakeholders, including mental health nurses, to prioritize interventions to promote positive self-concept among adolescents, consider sociodemographic factors that influence self-concept, and address areas of dissatisfaction such as moral behavior and academic/work efficiency. Incorporating family support and nurturing positive parent-child relationships are also important for fostering a healthy self-concept in adolescents.

Abstract

Background: Self-care behavior is crucial in preventing chronic diseases, such as hypertension, which has become highly prevalent in Indonesia. Hypertension, often referred to as the “silent killer” due to its asymptomatic nature, can easily go unnoticed. Neglecting its treatment can lead to severe complications, including heart disease, heart failure, and stroke. Despite adults with hypertension feeling well, embracing self-care behavior, including making healthy lifestyle choices, disease management, and enhancing life quality, remains essential. Objective: This study aimed to describe the self-care behavior of adult patients with hypertension in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed, involving 270 participants selected through consecutive sampling. Data were collected between 15 March and 4 April 2023, using the Hypertension Blood Pressure Self Care Profile (HBP-SCP) questionnaire in six public healthcare centers in Padang City, West Sumatra, Indonesia. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, Mann-Whitney, and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results: The self-care behavior among adult patients with hypertension was at a moderate level (Mean = 49.78, SD = 6.64), and it had significant differences according to ethnicity (p = 0.041), marital status (p = 0.017), and body mass index (p = 0.008). Conclusion: The findings highlight the influence of diverse ethnic backgrounds, various marital statuses, and differing body mass index levels, which may lead to distinct approaches to managing hypertension. These results offer valuable insights for nurses and other healthcare professionals to develop comprehensive strategies to enhance self-care among adult patients with hypertension.

Abstract

Background: Bullying victimization among adolescents is a significant public health issue in Indonesia, with limited research on factors such as self-esteem and peer pressure within local cultural contexts. Objective: This study aimed to identify the factors influencing bullying victimization among early adolescents in junior high schools. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 401 junior high school students from March to May 2024. Participants were selected through stratified random sampling, and data were collected using validated instruments, including the Revised Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, Peer Pressure Inventory, Depression Anxiety Stress Scales for Youth, and Parent Authority Questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and ordinal logistic regression were employed for analysis. Results: Among participants, 23.2% reported being victims of bullying. Multivariate analysis identified high peer pressure as the strongest predictor of bullying victimization (OR = 5.64, 95% CI = 2.12–15.03, p <0.001), while authoritarian parenting style emerged as potentially protective (OR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.13–0.87, p = 0.024) compared to authoritative parenting. Self-esteem, depression, and social media use did not demonstrate significant independent associations with victimization in the final model, despite showing significant bivariate relationships. Conclusion: Peer pressure emerged as the critical predictor of bullying victimization among early adolescents, with authoritarian parenting demonstrating an unexpected protective effect within this cultural context. School-based interventions should prioritize peer-focused strategies while considering culturally specific parenting dynamics. These findings highlight the importance of developing prevention approaches that account for Indonesia's collectivist social framework.
