Abstract

Background: Work safety and health is one of the efforts in preventing work accidents. One of the protective measures for factory workers is to use personal protective equipment (PPE) when carrying out work activities in the workplace. In the production of plywood wood dust exposure and formaldehyde can cause acute irritation to the skin, eyes and respiratory tract can also be associated with chronic respiratory symptoms. Awareness of the use of personal protective equipment needs to be instilled in every factory worker. This study aims to analyze the determinants of the behavior of the use of personal protective equipment in plywood factory workers.Subjects and Method: This study was conducted using a cross sectional research design. This was done at the plywood factory of PT Mustika Buana Sejahtera Lumajang, East Java, in December 2019. Sampling was carried out by 200 factory workers using simple random sampling. The dependent variable is the behavior of using personal protective equipment. The independent variables are motivation, training, attitude, outcome expectation, perceived benefits, vicarious experience, observational learning, obedience to regulations on the use of PPE, and reinforcement. Data were collected using a questionnaire. The data were analyzed by path analysis run on Stata 13.Results: The behavior of using personal protective equipment on workers directly increased with high motivation (b= 2.65; 95% CI= 1.36 to 3.95; p<0.001), observational learning (b= 3.82; 95% CI= 2.25 to 5.39; p<0.001), vicarious experience (b= 2.19; 95% CI= 0.90 to 3.48; p= 0.001), posi­tive attitude (b= 2.38; 95% CI= 1.02 to 3.73; p= 0.001), obedient to the rules (b = 2.16 ; 95% CI= 0.83 to 3.49; p= 0.001), and experienced a strengthening (b= 2.64; 95% CI= 1.34 to 3.93; p <0.001). The use of PPE on workers was indirectly influenced by outcome expectation, perceived usefulness, and training.Conclusion: PPE use directly increases with high motivation, observational learning, vicarious experience, having a positive attitude, obeying the rules, and experiencing reinforcement. The possibility of using PPE indirectly is influenced by outcome expectation, perceived usefulness, and training.Keywords: PPE, factory workers, social cognitive theory, health belief modelCorrespondence: Bayu Putra Dewantara.

Abstract

Background: Human interaction requires com­munication as a transmission of informa­tion, ideas, emotions, skills, and so on. Com­mu­nica­tion occurs when a source conveys a message to the recipient with a conscious in­ten­tion to influ­ence the recipient's behavior. One of the pro­blems in social communication is bully­ing. Bully­ing or harassment can be through words or through actions that aim to make the opponent's mental fall and pressure. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors that influence bullying against depres­sion with the Health Belief Model and Social Cognitive Theory.Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectio­nal study conducted in junior high schools in Surakarta, in December 2019. A total sample of 250 adolescents was selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was bullying. The inde­pen­dent variables were perceived sus­ceptibility, perceived severity, cues to action, perceived threat, perceived benefit, perceived barrier, self-efficacy, depres­sion, academic activi­ties, and communication. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple multilevel logistic regres­sion run on Stata 13.Results: Bullying increased depression (b= 3.69; 95% CI= 1.51 to 9.00; p= 0.004) and poor communication (b= 4.95; 95% CI= 2.24 to 10.89; p <0.001). Bullying decreased academic achievement (b= - 5.68; 95% CI= -12.33 to -2.62; p<0.001). School had strong contextual effect on depression with ICC= ICC= 20.91%.Conclusion: Bullying increases depression and poor communication. Bullying decreases academic achievement. School has strong con­textual effect on depression.Keywords: bullying, depression, Health Belief Model, Social Cognitive TheoryCorrespondence: Kiyat Sudrajad.

Abstract

Background: Psychological changes in ado­les­­­­­­cents can be influenced due to hormonal changes in the body and the desire to express sexual appetite so that it can result in increased sexual problems such as increased premarital sexual behavior or free sex. Therefore, it is ne­ces­­­­sary to do an in­ter­ven­tion step to be able to increase information and knowledge for ado­les­­cents about reproductive health.

The data were col­­lected using a questionnaire. The data was analyzed by Wilcoxon.Results: The habit of accessing media after be­ing given information through leaflets (Mean= 1.59; SD= 0.49) was higher compared to before getting information through leaflets (Mean= 1.26; SD= 0.44), and statistically significant (p<0.001). Pre-sexual behavior marriage after got the in­for­­ma­tion through leaflets (Mean= 42.38; SD= 11.11) was higher than before got the infor­­­­mation through leaflets (Mean= 38.92; SD=11.97), ­and statistically significant (p<0.001).Conclusion: Information in the leaflet im­proved the habit of accessing media related to re­pro­duc­ti­ve health and positive premarital sexual attitudes.Keywords: leaflets, media access, premarital sexual attitudeCorrespondence: Veronica Anggreni Damanik.
