It was conducted in Klaten District, Central Java, from March to April, 2017. A sample of 120 working mothers was selected for this study by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was exclusive breastfeeding. The independent variables were maternal education, perceived benefit, perceived barrier, self efficacy, family support, health personnel support, and availability of lactation room at workplace. The data were collected by a pre-tested questionnaire. Logistic regression was employed for data analysis.Results: Maternal education (OR=4.2; 95% CI = 1.09 to 11.51; p=0.001), availability of lactation room at workplace (OR=4.11; 95% CI= 1.21 to 14.29; p=0.001), family support (OR=6.25; 95% CI= 1.45 to 15.96; p<0.001), health personnel support (OR=3.76; 95% CI = 1.43 to 16.06; p=0.002), perceived benefit (OR=2.30; 95% CI = 1.09 to 12.87; p=0.044), self-efficacy (OR= 3.57; 95% CI  = 1.21 to 14.29; p=0.002) had positive effect on EBF. Perceived barrier (OR=0.18; 95% CI = 0.64 to 0.76; p<0.001) had negative effect on the provision of EBF.Conclusion: Maternal education, availability of lactation room at workplace, family support, health personnel support, perceived benefit, self-efficacy have positive effect on EBF.

Overweight or obesity was directly and positively  associated with perceived barrier (b= 0.13, SE= 0.07, p= 0.051). Dietary pattern was affected by perceived barrier (b= -0.22; SE= 0.007; p= 0.002), perceived benefit (b= 0.10; SE= 0.002; p<0.001), perceived threat (b= 0.09; SE= 0.04; p= 0.023), self effication (b= 0.22; SE= 0.09; p= 0.015), and maternal education (b= 1.05; SE= 0.41; p= 0.010). Physical activity was affected by perceived benefit (b= 0.05; SE= 0.001; p= 0.002), perceived barrier (b=-0.16; SE= 0.05; p= 0.002), perceived threat (b=0.14; SE= 0.03; p<0.001), self efficacy (b=0.24; SE=0.06; p< 0.001), and maternal education (b=0.86; SE= 0.30; p= 0.005).Conclusion: Overweight or obesity is negatively associated with perceived threat, perceived benefit, physical activity, and dietary pattern.

This study aimed to investigate the psycho-social determinants of drug use among adolescents in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, using Theory of Planned Behavior.Subjects and Method: This was an analytical observational study with cross-sectional design. The study was carried out at Badan Rehabilitasi Tanah Merah, Samarinda, East Kalimantan, from July to August, 2017. A sample of 150 adolescents were selected for this study by fixed disease sampling, including 50 adolescent drug users, and 100 adolescent non drug users. The dependent variable was drug use. The independent variables were intention, attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control, peer group, parenting style, and family harmony. The data were collected by pre-tested questionnaire and analyzed using path analysis.Results: Drug use was directly determined by strong intention (b= 2.18; 95% CI= 1.22 to 3.14; p<0.001), negative attitude (b= 1.79; 95% CI= 0.76 to 2.82; p=0.001), low subjective norm (b= 1.13; 95% CI= 0.09 to 2.17; p= 0.034), and weak perceived behavior control (b= 2.83; 95% CI= 1.48 to 4.19; p<0.001). Intention was determined by weak perceived behavior control (b= 1.18; 95% CI = 0.14 to 2.22; p<0.001). Subjective norm was determined by family harmony (b= 2.03; 95% CI= 0.96 to 3.09; p<0.001), authoritarian parenting style (b= 1.25; 95% CI= 0.15 to 2.36; p=0.026), and peer group (b= 1.46; 95% CI= 0.37 to 2.54; p=0.009).Conclusion: Drug use is directly determined by intention, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavior control. Family harmony, authoritarian parenting style, and peer group affect drug use indirectly.Keywords: drug use, Theory of Planned Behavior, path analysisCorrespondence: Syukma Rhamadani Faizal Nur.

Abstract

Bacground: One of the basic human needs to be fulfilled is sexual need. Prisoners face problem in their sexual need fulfilment and freedom, due to the prison’s diciplinary system, including supervison, strict disciplinary mechanism, and enactment of spatial division between men and women. As a consequence, there often occur perverted sexual behaviors, including homosexuality. This study aimed to analyze the sexual behavior issues among prisoners at prison using Health Belief Model.Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative descriptive study with phenomenological approach. The main key informants in this study were prisoners having imprisoned for one year or more and officers at Class IIA prison, in Pekalongan, Central Java. The supporting informants included health personnel (doctors and nurses) at Class IIA prison clinic.Results: All informants reported that they were susceptible to engage in risky sexual behaviors in order to fulfil their sexual need, such as masturbation and homosexuality. The psychological adverse effects they had experienced included fear and feeling of embarrassment their perverted sexual behaviors were recognized by others.  The informants reported that they did not have self-efficacy in coping with sexual need issues while in prison.Conclusion : The imprisonment system has an impact on the way inmates meet their sexual needs through masturbation. The role of prison officials is urgently needed to enable prisoners to address the problems of their biological needs through beneficial activities while in prison.Keywords: prisoners, sexual behaviors, Health Belief ModelCorrespondence: Liliana Dwi Pranita.
