Hypertension is a disease that often occurs in the elderly and will have an impact on the quality and quantity of life of the elderly, so it needs early treatment. SEFT therapy and taichong point acupressure are complementary therapies that can lower blood pressure in the elderly. The design in this research is descriptive statistics. The sample was taken by purposive sampling and obtained 30 respondents who were divided into 15 respondents each in the SEFT group and the taichong point acupressure group. Data were collected using observation sheets and analyzed univariately. The results of the research in the SEFT group showed that the pre-test systolic blood pressure was 164.00, the diastole was 94.67 and the post-test systolic blood pressure was 149.67, the diastole was 90.00. Whereas in the taichong point acupressure group, the pre-test systolic blood pressure was 153.33, the diastole was 93.33 and the systolic blood pressure post-test was 142.67, the diastole was 88.67. SEFT therapy and taichong point acupressure can be an alternative in reducing blood pressure in the elderly.

Abstract

Academic motivation provided an important role in students’ academic success and career preparation; however, many university students experience motivational decline due to uncertainty about future career pathways. This study examined the effect of alumni sharing sessions on academic motivation and career-related outcomes among undergraduate students at Universitas Andalas. A quantitative pre–post design was applied involving 44 undergraduate students who participated in an alumni sharing session. Data were collected using measures of academic motivation, career decision-making self-efficacy, job-search intention, and perceived study–work relevance. Descriptive analysis and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were conducted to examine changes before and after the intervention. The results showed no statistically significant change in overall academic motivation. However, significant improvements were found in intrinsic motivation and identified regulation, accompanied by a significant decrease in amotivation. Career decision-making self-efficacy increased significantly after the session, while job-search intention and study–work relevance demonstrated positive directional changes. Participants also rated the alumni sharing session as beneficial for clarifying career direction and strengthening learning relevance. These findings suggest that alumni sharing sessions contribute meaningfully to strengthening specific dimensions of academic motivation and enhancing career readiness among university students.
