Subjects and Method: This research with a cross-sectional design was conducted in Boyolali Regency, Central Java from November to December 2023. The research was conducted at 25 posbindu in Ngemplak and Nogosari Districts. The sample size was 200 adults with a diagnosis of type 2 DM who were selected using the stratified random sampling method. The dependent variable is tertiary preventive behavior. The independent variables are information, motivation, behavioral skills, age, gender, education, and employment. Data collection was carried out using questionnaire interviews. Data were analyzed using path analysis in the STATA 13 application. Results: There is a positive relationship between behavioral skills and tertiary preventive behavior (b= 0.16; 95% CI= 0.02 to 0.29; p= 0.023). There is a positive relationship between information and behavioral skills (b= 0.25; 95% CI= 0.13 to 0.38; p<0.001). There is a positive relationship between motivation and behavioral skills (b= 0.38; 95% CI= 0.15 to 0.41; p<0.001). The path analysis model has good model suitability, as indicated by the following suitability indicators: p= 0.244; RMSEA= 0.045; CFI= 0.98; TLI= 0.95; SRMR= 0.032. Conclusion: Tertiary preventive behavior in adult type 2 DM patients is directly influenced by behavioral skills. Tertiary preventive behavior is indirectly influenced by information and motivation. Tertiary preventive behavior in type 2 DM patients increases with good information, strong motivation and good behavioral skills.

Abstract

Background: Most people have understood the negative effects of smoking behavior, but not all of them can make the decision to stop the behavior. Like smoking behavior, quitting smoking is also influenced by various factors. This study aimed to analyze smoking cessation behavior in individuals who have quit smoking through Social Cognitive Theory in the Semarang City area. Subjects and Method: The study was conducted with a cross-sectional study design involving as many as 205 participants, including 123 active smokers and 82 who had quit smoking. This research was conducted in the Semarang City area, Central Java. This research was conducted in March-April 2024. The sample was selected using fixed disease sampling for active smoking par­ticipants and snowball sampling for participants who had quit smoking. The dependent variable is smoking cessation behavior. The independent variables are expectation of results, self-regulation, self-efficacy, and strengthening. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire and the data was analyzed using a path analysis model. Results: Smoking cessation behavior increased with high self-efficacy (OR= 19.99; 95% CI= 7.46 to 53.62; p<0.001) and strong self-regulation (OR= 3.05; 95% CI= 1.51 to 6.13; p= 0.002). Self-efficacy increased with the expectation of positive results (OR= 8.64; 95% CI= 4.52 to 16.52; p<0.001) and strong self-regulation increases with strengthening (OR = 3.61; 95% CI= 1.99 to 6.53; p<0.001). Thus, social cognitive theory can be used to explain and predict smoking cessation behavior. Conclusion: Smoking cessation behavior increases with high self-efficacy, strong self-regulation, positive outcome expectations, and strengthening. Thus, social cognitive theory can be used to explain and predict smoking cessation behavior. Keywords: social cognitive theory, smoking cessation, early adulthood.

Abstract

Background: The death rate for women of childbearing age is increasing. This indicates the need for useful interventions to prevent deaths from cervical cancer. One way is to carry out an Acetic Acid Visual Inspection (VIA) screening. Unfortunately, the rate of VIA screening is still low. So it is necessary to conduct research on how the behavior of using VIA screening is viewed from health promotion theory. This study aimed to determine the application of one of the health promotion theories, namely the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), to the use of VIA screening in Banjarnegara Regency. Subjects and Method: The study was conducted with a cross-sectional study design involving 200 female participants of reproductive age ranging from 20 to 50 years. This research was conducted in Banjarnegara Regency, Central Java Province, Indonesia. This study was conducted in April-May 2024. The sample was selected using fixed disease sampling to find participants who had undergone VIA screening. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires and data was analyzed using univariate, bivariate and path analysis. Results: The results of this study showed that the behavior of using VIA screening was directly influenced by intentions and perceived behavioral control. The possibility of subjects to undergo VIA screening can increase by strong intentions (OR= 6.56; 95% CI= 2.97 to 14.48; p< 0.001) and high perceived behavioral control (OR= 6.23; 95% CI= 3.07 to 12.65; p < 0.001). In addition, the results of path analysis showed that intentions were influenced by attitudes (OR= 2.73; 95% CI= 1.31 to 5.69; p= 0.007), subjective norms (OR= 3.48; 95% CI= 1.71 to 7.07; p= 0.001), and perceived control treatment (OR= 3.03; 95% CI= 1.50 to 6.09; p= 0.002). Conclusion: The use of VIA screening is directly influenced by intention and perceived behavioral control. In addition, intentions are influenced by attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. All results of the analysis are statistically significant.

Abstract

Background Adherence in using acupuncture services can reduce the risk of developing more severe low back pain. Low back pain patients who do not receive regular treatment will experience a high risk of injury. This study aims to determine the relationship between the construct of the health belief model and adherence in using acupuncture services. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study carried at the Surakarta acupuncture clinic in December-March 2024. A sample of 200 low back pain patients was selected using random sampling. The dependent variable was low back pain patients. The independent variables were perceived vulnerability, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, cues to action, and self-efficacy. Data were analyzed using a multiple logistic regression. Results: Adherence to acupuncture therapy in LBP patients increased with high perceived vulnerability (OR= 2.46; 95% CI= 1.09 to 5.07; p = 0.028), high perceived severity (OR= 4.07; CI 95%= 1.84 to 8.99; p = 0.001), high perceived benefit (OR= 2.57; 95% CI= 1.12 to 5.84; p = 0.024), had cues to action (OR= 2.24; 95% CI= 1.03 to 4.90; p = 0.042), and high self-efficacy (OR= 2.27; 95% CI= 1.03 to 5.00; p = 0.042). It was decreased by high perceived barriers (OR= -0.35; 95% CI= -0.15 to -0.80; p = 0.014). Conclusion: Adherence to acupuncture therapy in LBP patients increases with high perceived vulnerability, high perceived severity, high perceived benefit, had cues to action, and high self-efficacy.
