Abstract

Malnutrition, especially the stunting category, is a big problem for the people in Pasaman today, because it has a broad impact on aspects of life which include health, social, culture and the economy. This study aims to identify the knowledge of the people in Pasaman about fulfilling nutrition at 1000 HPK and knowing the eating patterns of the Pasaman community at 1000 HPK. This study used qualitative research methods. Data was collected through participatory observation techniques and in-depth interviews. With the number of informants as many as 35 people. The results showed that in general, the community's knowledge of fulfilling nutrition in 1,000 HPK had received counseling and socialization from the village midwife and Posyandu cadres. However, this knowledge has not been seen in the people's diet at 1,000 HPK. The practice of daily eating patterns during the 1,000 HPK era was still the same as the  habits that occurred before there was counseling. Food for pregnant and lactating women is prioritized is a matter of taste and preference, not about the nutritional content of food. Likewise with baby food 0-6 years, mothers already know that babies must be given exclusive breastfeeding, but there are still some mothers who do not give breast milk, because they think that breast milk is not filling for babies.

Abstract

Small talk serves as a societal effort to foster interactions among individuals. This linguistic habit plays a vital role in maintaining the stability of social interactions. A similar phenomenon is observed in Pulau Penyengat, where small talk is deeply ingrained in the community's daily life. Instead of using the conventional phrase "how are you," the people of Pulau Penyengat employ a unique term, "tak ade". This term opens a window into understanding the patterns of small talk and its significance in the lives of the island's residents. This qualitative study employs an ethnographic approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and literature review. The analysis involved three stages: data reduction, triangulation, and verification or conclusion drawing. The findings reveal four distinct patterns of small talk in Pulau Penyengat: speech context, actor patterns, pronunciation patterns, and the usage patterns of "tak ade". Additionally, the research identifies a categorization of community groups based on how they interpret "tak ade" in their small talk habits. These groups consist of the noble Melayu and the commoner Melayu.

Abstract

Whether or not a policy is effective can be caused by implementing factors. The implementation implementer referred to as the street bureaucracy is the link between the bureaucracy and the community. In such relationships are influenced by the culture of each. This article discusses the implementation of stunting handling in West Pasaman District, West Sumatra Province. The objectives of this article are: describe the implementation of stunting handling policies by implementers and explain the acceptance of targets to the policy implementation program. This article is based on research using qualitative methods with an ethnographic approach. The research data were collected by observation techniques and in-depth interviews. The results showed that the implementation of stunting prevention in West Pasaman has been formally carried out well. The Regional Apparatus Organization involved and the implementation officer at the spearhead are working seriously with each of their duties. This has made the Regional Government of West Pasaman Regency ranked first in the Convergence Action to Accelerate Stunting Reduction 4 times in a row from 2019 to 2022. However, people in Nagari who are the locus of stunting feel that the program approach actually makes the target community (especially those with stunting children) feel depressed and intimidated, causing resistance to posyandu activities. So it can be said that the implementation of stunting prevention carried out is less effective.

Abstract

This article aims to describe the socio-economic life of the fishing community in Purus Village, Padang City. The problem in the article concerns the socio-economic conditions of fishing communities in Padang City. This research was conducted on fishing communities in Purus Village, Padang City using ethnographic qualitative methods through observation, structured interviews, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The results of the research can be concluded: First, the reason for choosing a job as a fisherman is because this job is a job passed down from ancestors; they feel destined to be fishermen, do not have the capital to open another business, have a low level of education, and have no other skills. Second, the relationship between fishermen and their family members is not very close, because they are busy with their respective activities until the afternoon. Third, education in fishing families is generally only limited to middle and high school, because the costs are considered expensive and children lack motivation to study and continue their education to tertiary level. Fourth, there are still many fishing communities that do not have their own homes and live in simple rented houses. Fifth, income from fishing in the sea is uncertain, like a 'tiger's fortune', sometimes you get quite a lot of fish, and sometimes you don't catch any fish. The lack of socio-economic welfare of the fishing community in Purus, Padang City is influenced by unstable economic income.

Abstract

This research examines how adolescents and families in Padang City negotiate the boundaries of intimacy, sexual expression, and surveillance in the context of an increasingly digital world. Social media is not only a space for self-expression for adolescents, but also a field of social interaction that presents tensions between traditional family values ​​and the dynamics of global digital culture. Using digital anthropology, gender studies, and participatory ethnography, this study explores the daily lives of adolescents and their families, both online and offline. The research was conducted through digital observation, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions (FGDs) with adolescents aged 15–19 and their parents in urban and semi-urban areas of Padang City. The focus is on how social media practices—such as photo sharing, use of privacy features, and responses to sexual content—are understood, negotiated, and contested within households. The reality of adolescent digital intimacy is studied by exploring power relations, gender norms, control mechanisms, and potential conflicts and disagreements within families. This is expected to enrich anthropological understanding of changing social relations within families and communities in the information technology era. Overall, the findings suggest that digital intimacy among adolescents in Padang is best understood as a negotiated process shaped by cultural values, moral regulations, peer dynamics, and technological affordances. Adolescents are not passive recipients of digital influences, and families are not irrelevant moral institutions. Rather, both operate within a changing moral landscape where intimacy is increasingly mediated, fragmented, and context-dependent.
