Abstract

Earthquake disasters can significantly impact the psychological well-being of victims across all age groups, particularly children. As a vulnerable group, children face unique challenges in coping with disaster situations due to their limited abilities, resources, and immature psychological adaptations. Various interventions have been explored to address disaster-related trauma in children. In Indonesia, Randai, a traditional cultural performance, is believed to help reduce psychological trauma in children. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Randai therapy in alleviating psychological trauma among children affected by earthquakes. A quantitative approach was employed using a pre-experimental study design with pretest-posttest assessments. The sample size is 202 respondents, consisting of 101 for the Randai intervention group and 101 for the control group. The results of this study showed a pretest score for trauma level of 25.61 before Randai therapy and a posttest score of 20.96 after Randai therapy. There is a significant difference between the psychological trauma of respondents before and after being given Randai therapy, with an average value of 25.61 with a standard deviation of 7.800 and an average value of 20.96 with a standard deviation of 7.511 respectively. It was found that Randai therapy had positively reduced psychological trauma among children after the earthquake (p-value < 0.05). Randai therapy is significant in reducing psychological trauma in children after the earthquake in Kajai West Pasaman, West Sumatra. This study contributes by revealing the effectiveness of traditional Randai therapy as a non-pharmacological therapy to reduce post-disaster children's psychological trauma. In addition, it enriches the culture-based approach to safe, affordable, and sustainable psychological recovery.

Abstract

Postnatal depression remains a critical public health concern that adversely affects both maternal well-being and infant development, particularly in low-resource settings. This quasi-experimental study aimed to examine the effect of Family-Centered Maternity Care (FCMC) on the incidence and severity of postnatal depression among postpartum mothers in the working area of Puskesmas Lubuk Alung, Indonesia. A total of 85 postpartum mothers were recruited, and 30 received a structured two-week FCMC intervention involving home visits, emotional support, and health education delivered with family involvement. Postnatal depression was assessed using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) before and six weeks after the intervention. The results revealed a significant reduction in the prevalence of depressive symptoms, decreasing from 73.3% to 20.0% (p = 0.0001). Multivariate analysis showed that low family support (AOR = 13.28), low maternal education (AOR = 5.45), and emotional stress within the first 72 hours postpartum (AOR = 8.76) were significant predictors of postnatal depression. Although age and parity were not statistically significant, younger and primiparous mothers showed higher tendencies toward depressive symptoms. These findings underscore the importance of integrating FCMC into postpartum care services, particularly in culturally collectivist societies where family involvement can enhance maternal psychological resilience. Early implementation of FCMC may offer a cost-effective and scalable strategy to address postnatal mental health challenges and improve overall maternal health outcomes in primary care settings.

Indonesia is a country situated in the middle of two seas encircling continents. Indonesia is situated in the area of the world's most active earthquakes, as shown by its location on tectonic plates encircled by active volcanoes. Because of this, Indonesia is susceptible to a variety of natural calamities, including tsunami and eathquakes. An earthquake is a sudden, mild to strong shaking of the ground brought on by a shift in the earth's plates. Victims of earthquakes may have psychological and physical effects. For victims, it causes severe anguish and sadness. Examining the degree of trauma experienced by children following the earthquake in Kajai, West Pasaman, West Sumatra, Indonesia, is the goal of this study. In West Kajai Pasaman, West Sumatra, 303 post-earthquake children were the sample for this quantitative study, which used a descriptive research approach. According to the study's findings, mild trauma was experienced by 30.4% of post-earthquake children, moderate trauma by 62.7%, and severe trauma by 6.9% of the population. It is anticipated that this study would draw attention to the number of traumatized youngsters in Kajai village. The regulatory agencies will find these insights useful in reducing
