Abstract

Background: Autism spectrum disorder is a type of neural development disorder. It is characterized by deficit in social communication, social interaction, and repetitive behavior pattern. It is assumed that maternal role in child education is more dominant than paternal role, because children are closer to their mothers since birth. It is also assumed that the quality of life of autistic children would improve if there is improvement in their social communication and social interaction. This study aimed to examine the maternal role in guiding social communication to autistic children as a determinant of child quality of life.Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative study conducted in public special school in Tangerang District, West Java, from October to December 2017. Informants for this study included 5 mothers of autistic children and 3 teachers-therapists at the public special school. The constructs under study included maternal role in guiding social communication and social interaction in autistic children. The data were collected by in-depth interview, observation, and document review. The data were analyzed by Miles and Huberman method.Results: Mothers had an important role in observing various child behaviors, seeking advice from expert, determining child development need, exploring child sensory-dietary-medical need at home. Other maternal roles included admitting children to primary school or special school that was suitable for child potential development and involving children in simple daily activities at home. The maternal role in guiding social communication was considerably good including communication therapy at home using audio visual aids, stimulating oral motoric skill, providing social interaction therapy by story telling, teaching socialization to children by familiarizing them to greet and handshake with others, and letting them to play with other children. The maternal role in improving quality of life was sufficiently good, so that each child was able to develop their communication and interaction skills with variying levels of improvement. Conclusion: Maternal role in guiding social communication in autistic children is sufficiently good although there is a need to improve its implementation in order to gain improved quality of life. It is adviseable for mothers to carry on guiding program at home so as to develop child potentials and to reduce their weak aspects.Keywords: maternal role, guiding, communication, quality of life, autistic childrenCorrespondence:

Abstract

Background: Family planning is a key strategy for reduction of maternal mortality. Family planning aims to control birth in order to control population growth. Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs), which include intra-uterine device (IUD), are the most effective methods of birth control. Studies into factors affecting the uptake of IUD was lacking in Indonesia. This study aimed to investigate factors associated with use of IUD in women of reproductive age in Boyolali, Central Java, using multilevel analysis model and Theory of Planned Behavior.Subjects and Method: This was a case control study carried out in 25 posyandus (integrated community health posts) in Boyolali, Central Java, from April to June 2018. A sample of 200 women was selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was IUD use. The independent variables were education, family income, intention, attitude, subjective norm, perceived behaviour control, and husband support. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multilevel logistic regression on Stata 13.Results: IUD use among women reproductive age increased with higher maternal education (b= 4.06; 95% CI= 0.68 to 7.44; p=0.019), higher family income (b= 3.90; 95% CI= 1.67to 7.64; p=0.041), positive attitude (b= 4.54; 95% CI= 0.52 to 8.55; p=0.027), positive subjective norm (b= 3.06; 95% CI= 0.01to 6.10; p= 0.049), strong perceived behaviour control (b= 3.40; 95% CI= -0.04to 6.85; p=0.053), strong intention (b= 3.18; 95% CI= -0.06to 6.41; p= 0.054), and strong husband support (b= 4.28; 95% CI= 0.01to 7.44; p= 0.050). Posyandu had a contextual effect on IUD use with ICC= 32.10%.Conclusion: IUD use among women reproductive age increases with higher maternal education, higher family income, positive attitude, positive subjective norm, strong perceived behaviour control, strong intention, and strong husband support. Posyandu has sizeable contextual effect on IUD use.Keywords: intra-uterine device, utilization, determinants, multilevel analysisCorrespondence:

Abstract

Background: Maternal mortality amounted to 33 cases in Tegal, Central Java, in 2015. The leading cause of maternal mortality rate in Indonesia was obstetric complication, i.e 46.8%. Pregnancy complication may be affected by maternal age, parity, education, and maternal employment status. Various efforts have been implemented by the government to reduce maternal mortality rate, including pregnant woman class. The objective of the pregnant mother class is to increase maternal knowledge in risk factor detection and to increase their willingness to use antenatal care. This study aimed to estimate the association between pregnant woman class and pregnancy complication, while controlling for confounding factors.Subjects and Method: This was an analytical observational with case control design. This study was conducted at Pagerbarang, Pangkah and Dukuhwaru Health Centers, Tegal, Central Java. A total of 90 study subjects, consisting of 30 laboring women with complication and 60 without complication. The dependent variable was pregnancy complication. The independent variables were maternal age, parity, education, employment status, and participation in pregnant woman class. The data were collected by a set of questionnaire. The data on pregnancy complication was obtained from the obstetric record at the health center. The data were analyzed by multiple logistic regresion.Results: Parity ?3 (OR = 3.47; CI 95% = 0.95 to 12.69; p=0.060) and maternal education <senior high school (OR= 8.58; CI 95% = 1.7 to 43.33; p= 0.009) increased the risk of pregnancy complication. Maternal age 20 to 35 years (OR= 0.26; CI 95% = 0.08 to 0.81; p=0.020), employed
