Abstract

Background. The twentieth century marked a fundamental transformation in childbirth practices, driven by the rise of obstetrics and the gradual subordination of midwifery within institutional healthcare systems. This shift redefined maternal care through clinical authority, technological intervention, and standardized protocols, while simultaneously reshaping professional hierarchies and gendered roles in medicine. Purpose. This study aimed to critically examine how midwifery was repositioned from an autonomous, community-based practice into a subordinate role under the dominance of obstetrics within modern healthcare institutions. Method. A qualitative historical research design was employed, integrating archival analysis, policy documents, and scholarly literature. The data were analyzed using thematic coding informed by feminist theory and the sociology-of-professions framework to explore shifts in power, knowledge, and professional identity. Results. The findings indicate that the subordination of midwifery was influenced not only by clinical advancements but also by regulatory mechanisms, institutional expansion, and epistemological hierarchies privileging biomedical knowledge over experiential practice. Evidence further shows that this transformation reshaped both professional identities and the nature of childbirth, shifting it from relational, woman-centered care toward standardized medical control. Conclusion. The study concludes that the rise of obstetrics represents a complex reconfiguration of power and knowledge rather than a purely linear progression of medical improvement. These findings provide important insights for contemporary discussions on maternal care, interprofessional collaboration, and the development of more patient-centered healthcare approaches.

Abstract

The increasing demand for efficient and personalized health services has driven the integration of advanced technologies into healthcare systems. Mobile applications leveraging natural language processing (NLP) offer promising solutions to improve patient communication, diagnostic accuracy, and service delivery. Despite advancements, challenges remain in developing user-friendly applications that address diverse healthcare needs. This research focuses on designing a mobile application based on NLP to enhance the quality of health services, emphasizing usability, accuracy, and accessibility. The study employs a user-centered design approach combined with experimental evaluation. The application was developed using Python-based NLP libraries, integrating features such as symptom analysis, medical query responses, and appointment scheduling. A prototype was tested with 150 participants, including patients and healthcare professionals, to evaluate performance metrics such as response accuracy, user satisfaction, and system reliability. The findings indicate that the NLP-based application achieved an 85% accuracy rate in interpreting medical queries and a 90% user satisfaction rate. Participants reported improved communication with healthcare providers and faster access to relevant medical information. However, challenges such as handling complex medical terminology and ensuring data privacy were noted. The study concludes that NLP-powered mobile applications have significant potential to improve health service quality by enabling efficient and accurate communication between patients and providers. Addressing challenges related to data security and expanding linguistic capabilities will be essential for future development. The research underscores the importance of integrating advanced technologies to meet the evolving needs of the healthcare sector.

Abstract

In the field of education, writing skills represent a vital competency that university students must possess. These skills are closely interrelated with self-efficacy and metacognition. Self-efficacy refers to an individual’s belief in their capability to execute the actions required to achieve specific goals, while metacognition involves an individual’s awareness of their own thinking processes. Both elements are essential for the development of effective writing proficiency. This study aims to examine and observe students’ writing skills, which are crucial for academic success in higher education, as an effort to analyze the mediating effects of a growth mindset on students’ writing performance. This research employs a quantitative method using a survey design. Data were collected via questionnaires distributed to a sample of students from the Arabic Language Education and English Language Education programs at the State Islamic University (UIN) Mahmud Yunus Batusangkar. Data were analyzed using mediation analysis techniques. The findings indicate that self-efficacy and metacognition significantly function as mediating variables in the relationship between a growth mindset and students’ writing skills. These components are proven to be fundamental factors in the educational process. This study demonstrates that writing skill is a critical competence for students. A growth mindset enhances self-efficacy and metacognitive awareness, both of which strongly influence writing effectiveness. When students possess the ability to write effectively, they feel more confident in their abilities. Furthermore, when students utilize metacognitive awareness to construct their writing alongside high self-efficacy, they experience a significant improvement in their overall writing skills.
