<![CDATA[One of the medical diagnoses of mental disorders that is part of education in psychiatric nursing is schizophrenia. Part of the education of psychiatric nursing provides important information about mental disorders and learns new skills to deal with various challenging behaviors. The anxiety felt by psychiatric nursing students are normal and usually do not continue after students have initial contact with patients. Aim on this study is to explore the effectiveness of VR-based simulations in enhancing the skills of nursing students in caring for patients with mental health disorders. This study method uses literature review. The literature used in this study consists of journals sourced from Wiley Online, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar between 2015 and 2024. Article selection used the protocol guidelines (PRISMA) of identification, screening, eligibility and resulted in 10 articles being analyzed. VR simulations provide immersive and realistic environments where students can safely practice therapeutic communication, conduct mental health assessments, and develop critical thinking skills. Research indicates that VR simulations significantly enhance students' skills, knowledge, and empathy in psychiatric nursing. Despite their advantages, VR technologies face limitations, such as VR technology presents challenges such as technical difficulties. However, evidence suggests that VR-based training is a promising tool for advancing psychiatric nursing education by fostering essential skills and promoting behavioral health equity among future nurses.]]>

<![CDATA[Self-concept and social interaction are important factors in the development of nursing students' professional skills. A positive self-concept can enhance students’ ability to engage in effective social interactions, which plays a vital role in building strong interpersonal relationships within academic and clinical practice environments. This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-concept and social interaction among nursing students at a private university in Tangerang. This study employed a quantitative correlational method with a cross-sectional approach. A total of,302 nursing students from a private university in Western Indonesia were selected using a quota sampling technique. The instruments included the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS) and the Social Interaction Psychology Scale, both of which were utilized in their validated Indonesian-language versions. Data analysis using Spearman’s rank correlation was conducted to examine the relationship between self-concept and social interaction. The findings showed that most students had a moderate level of self-concept (64.9%) and social interaction (73.2%). Spearman’s rank correlation analysis revealed a significant positive correlation of moderate strength between self-concept and social interaction among nursing students. This suggests that students with a better self-concept tend to demonstrate more effective social interaction. Therefore, educational institutions are encouraged to develop programs aimed at enhancing both self-concept and social interaction to support students’ academic performance and professional development.]]>

<![CDATA[Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) activates muscle fibers by applying electrical currents via electrodes to targeted muscles and is widely used by competitive athletes. Despite its board application, the specific effects of EMS on swimmere remain underexplored. This study evaluates the effectiveness of EMS Butterfly in enhancing speed and performance among novice swimmers compared to conventional training. A single-group pre-post experimental design was conducted with 21 beginer swimmers (treatment group: 14; control group: 7). The treatment group received EMS for 15 minutes before regular training, twice weekly for once month. Speed was assessed by timing a 50-meter freestyle swim using a calibrated digital stopwatch. Statistical analysis included paired t-test and Shapiro-Wilk for normality. All participants were matched for ability and fitness and supervised by coaches and sport nurses. The treatment group demonstrated a mean time reduction of 14.0 seconds (95% CI: 3.63, 21.85), which was statistically significant (p<0.05), whereas the control group improved by 3.7 seconds (95% CI: -7.87, 15.29; p>0.05). The difference between groups was stattiscally significant. These findings indicate that EMS Butterfly is effective for improving novice swimmers' performance, supporting its integration into training programs. Further research is recommended to evaluate long-term effects across performance levels.]]>

<![CDATA[The role of the family in caring for individuals with schizophrenia is crucial, particularly in providing emotional support, monitoring treatment, and assisting with daily activities. This involvement inevitably leads to care burden, which can result in inadequate care during the pandemic. This study aimed to explore how families adapted to caring for a family member with schizophrenia during the pandemic. This qualitative study employed a phenomenological approach and was conducted in East Java, Indonesia. The participants included seven family members who provided care for individuals with schizophrenia within their households; none of the participants were related to each other. Data were collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews and analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). Four main themes were found by the thematic analysis, including: 1) Feeling an excessive burden of caring; 2) Hoping for the recovery of schizophrenia patient; 3) A sense of responsibility to continue caring for schizophrenia patient (core theme); 4) Trying to survive in caring for schizophrenia patient during the pandemic. The findings suggest that nurses can help alleviate family caregiving burdens through targeted interventions such as Community Mental Health Nursing and Psychosocial Mental Health Support, crucial strategies for maintaining family well-being and preventing patient relapse.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: The number of patients with hypertension is steadily increasing and poses a significant chronic health problem. Individuals with hypertension have an 87.5% risk of experiencing a stroke. The role of family as caregivers is crucial in elderly care, particularly in stroke prevention. The family empowerment model is an approach designed to enhance self-potential, enabling individuals to make informed decisions regarding their own health. This study aimed to examine the effect of a family empowerment model on stroke prevention behavior among the elderly with hypertension. Methods: This quasi-experimental study involved 132 families with hypertensive elderly, using multistage random sampling. A six-week intervention program consisting of education and skill-building activities was implemented. Stroke prevention behaviour was measured using the validated Elderly Stroke Prevention Behaviour Questionnaire (knowledge, attitude and behaviour). Data were analysed using paired and independent t-tests. Results: Significant improvements were observed in the intervention group following the implementation of the family empowerment model (p < 0.001). Knowledge scores improved from 6.61 (SD = 1.86) to 9.15 (SD = 0.88), attitude scores improved from 17.11 (SD = 2.30) to 25.79 (SD = 3.30), and behaviour scores improved from 7.18 (SD = 2.20) to 9.02 (SD = 0.97). Conclusion: The eight-week empowerment model effectively improved stroke prevention behaviour among the elderly with hypertension This model can be integrated into community-based programs to promote elderly self-care and reduce the risk of stroke. Recommendations: Empowering the elderly is essential to enhance self-efficacy and overall quality of life.]]>

<![CDATA[Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) poses a significant public health in Indonesia. Despite government efforts to control disease vectors, the rising population density and mobility in Tangerang Regency have contributed to the rapid spread of DHF. This highlights the urgent need to eradicate mosquito nests for outbreak management and prevention. This study aims to identify risk factors associated with mosquito nest eradication in the Tangerang Regency. A cross-sectional design was used, with 400 participants selected through convenience sampling. Data were analyzed using logistic regression. The results of the multivariate analysis revealed age (p-value = 0.012), knowledge (p-value = 0.001), and support from healthcare workers (p-value = 0.003) as variables linked to mosquito nests eradication. Knowledge was the most dominant variable (OR = 5.857); individuals with low knowledge levels were 5.8 times less likely to engage in mosquito nest eradication compared to those with high knowledge after being controlled for age and support from health workers. These findings underscore the urgency of addressing these risk factors. Nurses can play a key role by providing health education to the community, emphasizing the importance of regularly draining and cleaning water containers, covering water storage, and reusing or recycling waste to reduce mosquito breeding sites.]]>

<![CDATA[Hypertension is a chronic condition that requires consistent medication adherence to prevent serious complications. However, many hypertension sufferers experience difficulty taking medication regularly as advised. Although medication adherence is critical in hypertension, little is known about the role of self-compassion. This study aims to analyze the relationship between self-compassion and medication adherence in hypertension patients undergoing treatment at a Health Center in Jakarta. A quantitative, cross-sectional design was employed, and data were analyzed using the chi-square test. A total of 100 respondents were selected through purposive sampling. The instruments used were the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) and the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8 (MMAS-8). The results showed a significant relationship between self-compassion and medication adherence in hypertension patients (p-value < 0.001). Although 61% of participants demonstrated high self-compassion, only 39.3% reported high medication adherence. These findings suggest the importance of incorporating psychological components, such as self-compassion, into educational and behavioral interventions to improve treatment adherence and reduce the risk of hypertension-related complications.]]>
