Abstract

Background: The reports on the number of drug abuse in Indonesia by the National Narcotic Agency (NNA) showed 3.3 million drug users in 2008 and 3.8 million drug users in 2014 in which its number keeps increasing year after year. The number of teenagers who become drug users in Cirebon is quite high, i.e. 25% compared to unemployed people of 19%, and followed by private employees and government employees of 56%. Data from community health center show that drug users who underwent treatment and were sent to rehabilitation center in 2017 were 32 people; it was higher than in 2016, i.e. 10 people. Adolescence is a transition period between childhood and adulthood. There are several factors influencing mental abilities, knowledge, and attitudes. It makes adolescents may consume narcotics, psychotropic abuse and other drug addictive substances. The community health center of Kesunean has an Integrated service post (ISP) program called REMPONG PISAN (an ISP who cares for HIV/AIDS and Narcotics) aiming to make adolescent understand about HIV/AIDS and drugs and to make them healthy. This ISP program is conducted once a month with one of the activities is education about HIV/AIDS and drugs. Aim: To observe the correlation of adolescent’s knowledge and attitudes to drugs with drug abuse behavior among adolescents at the ISP. Method: This research was an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design. The sample was determined using consecutive sampling technique during the implementation of the ISP at the 2 neighborhood in the community health center of Kesunean. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation to determine the correlation of adolescent’s knowledge and attitudes to drugs with drug abuse behavior among adolescents. Results: Statistical analysis shows that there was no significant correlation between knowledge and drug abuse behavior (p = 0.180 and; r = -0,201), there was no significant correlation between attitudes with drug abuse behavior (p = 0.264; r= -0,168), however, there was a significant correlation between knowledge and attitudes towards drug abuse (p = 0.000; r = 0,710**). Conclusion: The better the adolescent’s knowledge about drugs, the better their attitude will be. In this case, good teen behavior is influenced by good knowledge and attitude.

Abstract

Background: The pattern of medical education in Indonesia has changed from teacher-centered learning to student-centered learning. This change has an impact on methods, learning activities, and learning achievements of medical students. Problem Based Learning (PBL) is one of the main learning methods used in the faculty of medicine. PBL is a learning method that requires students to play an active role and facilitate collaborative learning. Due to the change of learning method, new medical students experience a lot of stress from in doing Problem Based Learning such as anxiety and may affect their PBL results as can be evaluated using Self-Directed Learning Readiness (SDLR). There are very few studies found to date investigating this phenomenon. Aims: This research aims to see the correlation between anxiety level and SDLR with student’s performance participating in first-year PBL in the Musculoskeletal and Locomotory System block in the faculty of medicine Universitas Swadaya Gunung Jati Cirebon. Methods: This is a cross-sectional observational study with total sampling. The samples were recruited from 167 first-year 2018 intake students of the faculty of medicine Universitas Swadaya Gunung Jati. Zung Self Rating Anxiety Scale questionnaire is used to measure anxiety levels and the SDLR questionnaire is used to measure Self Directed Learning Readiness (SDLR). Results: The Spearman test showed a medium negative correlation value of -0.49 (p>0.05) for the level of anxiety. It means that there is no significant effect of anxiety on the PBL performance. In addition, it shows a weak positive correlation value of 0.196 (p <0.05) for SDLR (self-directed learning readiness) showing a significant influence on PBL performance. Conclusions: The level of anxiety does not significantly influence PBL performance while SDLR has a significant effect on PBL performance. Keywords: Anxiety Level, Self-Directed Learning Readiness, Problem Based Learning.

Abstract

Background: Learning approach and Self Directed Learning Readiness (SDLR) are important factors that influence student learning achievement. The world of medical education has experienced a paradigm shift from Teacher-Centered Learning (TCL) to Student-Centered Learning (SCL) that is applied through the Problem Based Learning (PBL) methods that expected the student to have the ability to learn independently or what is called Self Directed Learning (SDL). This study aimed to analyzed the effect of SDLR and learning approach on medical student achievement. Methods : this study uses a cross-sectional design. The sample was students of the Faculty of Medicine, Swadaya Gunung Jati University, 2016, 2017 and 2018 as many as 181 people. The sampling technique uses stratified random sampling. Spearman test, chi-square test and linear regression test were used to analysed the effect of the age, SLDR and learning approach on medical student achievement Results : The chi square test result in this study showed that age (P = 0.001; rs = 0.359), SDLR (P = 0.001; rs = 0.516) and the learning approach (P = 0.001; rs = 0.308) had a significant effect on medical students' learning achievement. However, there was no significant difference in the learning approach between 2016, 2017 and 2018 classes. The linear regression test results showed that SDLR was the most influential variable in the learning achievements of medical students. Conclusions : Self Directed Learning Readiness (SDLR) and learning approach could be the effective learning methods. SDLR as the most effective method to increase the learning achievements of medical student could be applied on many medical schools. Keywords : SDLR, learning approaches, learning achievement
