Abstract

Teachers' attitudes are among the most significant factors that contribute to the effectiveness of inclusive education practices. Previous studies on attitudes toward inclusive education have not thoroughly examined the three primary components, including gender, age, training, and teaching experience of Indonesian English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers and future teachers, as well as certification of in-service teachers. Therefore, an investigation of the attitudes of EFL teachers and future teachers becomes paramount. The purpose of this study was to examine attitudes, actions, and processes, as well as the factors influencing attitudes toward inclusive education. Using convenience sampling, 147 EFL teachers and future teachers were recruited. This cross-sectional survey design involved online distribution of validated scales during the 2025 academic semester, with informed consent and ethical approval from institutional review boards. Participants completed the Multidimensional Attitudes toward Inclusive Education Scale (MATIES; including cognitive, affective, and behavioral components) and the second dimension of Accessibility, Process, Permanent, and Demanded Training (APTD; focusing on process) scale. The data were analyzed descriptively and using t-tests, one-way ANOVAs, and multiple regression analyses. The attitudes of EFL teachers and future teachers towards inclusive education are generally positive. There is a significant difference between those teachers. Future teachers and young in-service teachers tend to have the most positive attitude toward inclusive education. In addition, there are no statistically significant differences in gender, teaching experience with students with special needs, or training/seminar/course participation. Certified teachers tend to have less positive attitudes, which reflects the certification paradox. Indonesian EFL teachers and future teachers have positive attitudes toward inclusive education. An intensive training program and evaluation of the certification program are recommended to foster the implementation of inclusive education.Keywords: attitudes, inclusive education, EFL teachers, future teachers, certification paradox.

Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in pregnancy remains a nutritional problem that may increase maternal health risks and hinder fetal growth. Parity and maternal age are often discussed as related factors, yet previous evidence is inconsistent, especially across midwifery care settings. This study examined the association of parity and maternal age with CED among pregnant women attending antenatal care (ANC) at TPMB Luh Mertasari in 2024-2025. A quantitative analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted using ANC medical records. Total sampling included 188 pregnant women. CED status was determined using mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC): MUAC <23.5 cm was classified as CED and MUAC ≥23.5 cm as non-CED. Data were summarized using frequencies and percentages. Associations were tested using Fisher’s Exact test (two-sided) because at least one contingency-table cell had an expected count <5, with p<0.05 considered significant. Most participants were non-CED (90.4%). No CED cases were found in the high-risk parity group (n=26), while 18 women (11.1%) in the non-high-risk parity group (n=162) were classified as CED (p=0.141). In the high-risk age group (n=33), 3 women (9.1%) were classified as CED, and in the non-high-risk age group (n=155), 15 women (9.7%) were classified as CED (p=1.000). In conclusion, CED in this setting was not significantly associated with parity or maternal age. Given the multifactorial nature of CED, prevention should emphasize routine nutritional screening and strengthened nutrition interventions for all pregnant women during ANC. ABSTRAK Kekurangan Energi Kronik (KEK) pada ibu hamil masih menjadi masalah gizi yang dapat meningkatkan risiko gangguan kesehatan ibu dan menghambat pertumbuhan janin. Paritas dan usia ibu kerap dipertimbangkan sebagai faktor yang berkaitan dengan KEK. Namun, temuan penelitian terdahulu masih bervariasi sehingga diperlukan bukti pada konteks pelayanan kebidanan. Penelitian ini menganalisis hubungan paritas dan usia ibu dengan kejadian KEK pada ibu hamil yang melakukan kunjungan antenatal (ANC) di TPMB Luh Mertasari tahun 2024-2025. Penelitian menggunakan desain kuantitatif observasional analitik dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Data diperoleh dari rekam medis pelayanan ANC, dengan total sampling sebanyak 188 ibu hamil. Status KEK ditentukan berdasarkan Lingkar Lengan Atas (LiLA), yaitu KEK jika LiLA <23,5 cm dan tidak KEK jika LiLA ≥23,5 cm. Analisis univariat disajikan dalam frekuensi dan persentase, sedangkan analisis bivariat menggunakan Fisher’s Exact (2-sided) karena terdapat expected count <5, dengan p<0,05. Hasil menunjukkan sebagian besar responden tidak mengalami KEK (90,4%). Pada paritas berisiko (n=26) tidak ditemukan KEK, sedangkan pada paritas tidak berisiko (n=162) terdapat 18 responden (11,1%) dengan KEK, uji Fisher menunjukkan p=0,141. Pada usia berisiko (n=33) terdapat 3 responden (9,1%) dengan KEK dan pada usia tidak berisiko (n=155) terdapat 15 responden (9,7%) dengan KEK, uji Fisher menunjukkan p=1,000. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa kejadian KEK pada ibu hamil di TPMB Luh Mertasari tahun 2024-2025 tidak berkaitan secara signifikan dengan paritas maupun usia ibu. Mengingat KEK bersifat multifaktorial, upaya pencegahan perlu menekankan skrining status gizi secara rutin dan penguatan intervensi gizi pada seluruh ibu hamil selama pelayanan ANC.

Abstract

Hypertensive disorders during pregnancy remain one of the leading obstetric complications contributing significantly to the high Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR). Maternal nutritional status, commonly assessed using Body Mass Index (BMI) measurement, has been recognized as a significant risk factor for the development of hypertension during pregnancy. Monitoring BMI from early pregnancy constitutes an essential component of antenatal care to support early detection and prevention of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. This research aimed to determine the association between BMI and the incidence of hypertension among pregnant women. A quantitative descriptive study with cross-sectional design was conducted using secondary data obtained from medical records and maternal registers at the Independent Midwife Practice “LM” during the 2024-2025 period. This study sample consisted of 188 pregnant women selected through a total sampling technique based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate approaches with the Chi-Square test at a significant level of ≤0,05. The findings indicated that the majority of respondents had a normal BMI (52,1%) and did not experience hypertension (66,5%). Statistical analysis indicated a significant association between BMI and the incidence of hypertension in pregnancy, with p-value of 0,000 (p≤0,05). A higher proportion of hypertension was observed among pregnant women classified as overweight and obese BMI compared to those with underweight or normal BMI. Therefore, optimizing BMI monitoring and nutritional status management from early pregnancy is necessary as part of preventive efforts against hypertension in pregnant women.   Abstrak Gangguan hipertensi dalam kehamilan merupakan salah satu komplikasi obstetri yang berkontribusi terhadap tingginya Angka Kematian Ibu (AKI). Status gizi ibu hamil yang dinilai melalui pengukuran Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT) diketahui berperan besar sebagai faktor risiko terjadinya hipertensi pada ibu hamil. Pemantauan IMT sejak awal kehamilan menjadi komponen penting dalam pelayanan antenatal untuk mendukung upaya deteksi dini dan pencegahan hipertensi dalam kehamilan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara IMT dengan kejadian hipertensi pada ibu hamil. Penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross-sectional berdasarkan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari rekam medis dan buku register ibu hamil di Tempat Praktik Mandiri Bidan (TPMB) “LM” tahun 2024-2025. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 188 ibu hamil yang ditentukan melalui teknik total sampling sesuai kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan secara bivariat menggunakan uji Chi-Square dengan tingkat signifikansi ≤0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar responden memiliki IMT normal (52,1) dan tidak mengalami hipertensi (66,5%). Uji statistik menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang bermakna antara IMT dengan kejadian hipertensi pada ibu hamil dengan p-value 0,000 (p≤0,05). Proporsi kejadian hipertensi lebih tinggi ditemukan pada ibu hamil dengan IMT gemuk dan obesitas dibandingkan dengan ibu hamil dengan IMT kurus atau normal. Sehingga, optimalisasi pemantauan IMT dan pengendalian status gizi sejak awal kehamilan perlu dilakukan sebagai bagian dari upaya pencegahan hipertensi pada ibu hamil.
