Abstract

Global health questionnaire-12 (GHQ12) is the most common instrument used to measure mental health. However, the factor structure of the GHQ12 has not been fully explored. This study aims to assess the factorial structure of the GHQ12 and explore demographic factors associated with mental wellbeing in a population of prospective biology teachers in Indonesia. This cross-sectional survey was conducted for two weeks in July 2023 by recruiting 1186 students who were predominantly female (85.92%), over 20 years old (68.79%), only studying without working (90.47%), and third year (33.81%). Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to extract and assess the suitability of the resulting models. GHQ12 scores were also reviewed concerning demographic characteristics using comparison tests. Two factors including depression and social dysfunction accounted for 58.78% of the variance. This two-factor model was confirmed to fit the actual data. Additionally, we found differences between men and women on both factors and total scores. In addition, there are differences between students who only study and those who work on depression factors. This study suggests that the factor structure of the GHQ12 is a valid and reliable measurement for evaluating the mental health of prospective biology teachers.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted healthcare workers physically, psychologically, and economically. The industry has struggled financially with the cancellation of elective procedures and hesitancy from patients to seek medical help. Thus, this study aimed to assess the economic and work burden of COVID-19 on the health workforce in Egypt. Methods a cross-sectional survey was conducted in Egypt from October 2020 to May 2021. A purposive sample of 763 healthcare workers (HCWs) from Egyptian governorates was included. HCWs were asked to fill out a self-administered questionnaire on Google Forms and printed copies. The questionnaire link was shared on social media forums. Results a total of 763 HCWs responded. Females were 88.2% and more than half were 33 or less years old. Physicians constituted 42.5%, while paramedics 57.5%. The governmental sector represented 61.2%, private sector 14.7% and those who combined both 24.1%. Regarding specialties affected, pediatricians, dermatologists, and nephrologists reported a considerable drop in their regular private work rate, while radiologists were not affected regarding workload or income by the closure. The HCWs acknowledge that COVID-19 has put extreme stress on the healthcare workforce physically, mentally, and financially in a pre-existing challenging environment. The results can help evidence-based decisions by policymakers in Egypt.

Abstract

This study rigorously evaluates a mental health assessment tool for college students, grounded in the dual-continua model, which uniquely captures both positive (psychological well-being) and negative (psychological distress) mental health dimensions. Employing a sample of 312 students evenly split by gender, the research meticulously tested the tool's reliability and construct validity. Reliability was confirmed through a robust Cronbach's Alpha of .807, indicating consistency in responses. Construct validity was assessed via confirmatory factor analysis, affirming the tool's capacity to accurately measure the intended constructs with well-being and distress components scoring .828 and .875, respectively. This validation process underscores the instrument's precision and significant contribution to mental health research by providing a nuanced understanding of student mental health through dual-continua models. The findings offer a refined resource for mental health professionals and universities, facilitating the development of targeted interventions. However, the study acknowledges limitations, including its cross-sectional design and the need for further validation across diverse student populations, to ensure the tool's broad applicability and effectiveness in varied contexts.

Abstract

The global COVID-19 pandemic has brought attention to the profound impact of stigma on individuals, communities, and societies. Social network analysis (SNA), based on network theory, offers a transformative approach to investigate the complex interplay of social structures, relationships, and information dissemination in communicable disease contexts. This scoping review aims to examine the utilization of SNA in studying stigma dynamics related to communicable diseases, assess the current research landscape, identify gaps, and highlight key findings. Three databases (Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed) were searched for studies on SNA and stigma in communicable diseases. From the identified studies, three eligible articles were selected for review, providing insights into the role of stigma as a barrier to social integration, thereby impacting network centrality. The review also explores patterns of stigma communication on social media and examines the impact of interventions on individuals’ social networks. Overall, this review emphasizes the value of SNA in comprehending the intricate relationships between social networks and stigma in communicable disease contexts.

Abstract

Parental involvement plays a pivotal role in fostering early literacy skills. Understanding the factors influencing parental involvement is essential for promoting effective intervention in childhood. This study aims to identify and explore the determinants of parental involvement in early literacy development. The scoping review adheres to PRISMA guidelines from eight electronic databases: SAGE, Research Gate, Semantic Scholar, Google Scholar, Science Direct, Taylor and Francis, Scopus, and Springer. The criteria include research on parental involvement and early literacy, handling children aged 0-6 years and parents, and publishing original research articles and literature reviews. The search yielded 13 relevant studies. The analysis results show the following determinants of parental involvement in early literacy development: internal factors (i.e., parent depression, parent fidelity, parental genetics, parent's perspective, parent's support, parental positive motivation and belief, parental estimation, and parent expectation) and external factors (i.e., socioeconomic status, parents' education, parental literacy experience, family risk home literacy environment, and emergent literacy skills). The study results aim to inform targeted interventions to enhance parental involvement in early literacy across diverse contexts.

Abstract

Telemedicine has become indispensable in contemporary healthcare, reshaping patient care worldwide. The utilization of it has significantly risen in the Philippines, particularly during the pandemic, mirroring a global trend. Nevertheless, there is a dearth of studies regarding its pragmatic implementation among Filipino physicians, a crucial aspect for enhancing healthcare delivery. A qualitative analysis utilized in-depth interviews with experienced physicians in the Philippines. The researchers employed an inductive methodology to investigate how 13 physicians integrate telemedicine into their private medical practices. The selection of participants was purposeful, specifically targeting physicians with more than two years of experience in telemedicine. The qualitative data collected was subjected to a rigorous thematic analysis, comprehensively examining the current telemedicine integration situations. The examination of the data indicated a central theme: ‘Transcending Telemedicine’, emphasizing its influence that goes beyond being a mere technological tool. It overcomes time, space, and geography constraints, enhancing physicians’ ability to serve patients. There are four subcategories connected that contribute to or hinder the achievement of this goal: factors influencing adoption and factors influencing implementation and responses and reactions to telemedicine adoption. This paper contributes to the general understanding of telemedicine’s function in healthcare, specifically in the setting of a developing country. It emphasizes the necessity for continuous support and adjustment to maximize its benefits.

Abstract

The high demand for nursing work to encounter death or disease, dealing with a high volume of work in a short amount of time, working under intense pressure, and ignoring established authority all contribute to the high levels of stress on nurses. The undisputable significance of emotional intelligence in the sphere of nursing education has led in a rapid increase in the number of emotional intelligence courses and training program that offer a broad range of educational different outcomes to the students. There is a lack of studies regarding to improve teaching and learning in Libyan nursing educational institutions. Quite a few emotional intelligence (EI) assessment studies were found that simply contain criteria and dimensions of EI in the literature study. The aim of this study is to review the emotional intelligence studies in nursing education. This evaluation encompasses a range of publications released throughout the time frame of 2019 to 2023. The findings showed that there is a need for including emotional intelligence program in curriculum of nursing education. In addition, the findings indicated that EI intervention program could boost student academic achievements and alleviate work stress to nurse profession. The discussion chiefly emphasizes on the contemporary issues that are being confronted by the field, as well as the openings for research that exist in the area.

The starting date for the design of the disaster nursing competency assessment instrument was 2023. Then, the implementation of the research to test the instrument, which had been validated by experts using disaster nursing practice simulations, was conducted for a month from February to March 2023. The research design uses Design-Based, the sample criteria were active student status, emergency nursing, and disaster management courses. The total number of respondents was 80 students, and in the initial stage of testing the instrument during disaster simulation observations, a limited sample of 20 respondents was taken at random and assessed by five lecturers as raters. The instrument development stage started with the specification of the ICN disaster nursing competency assessment instrument. The Aiken index for the unobtrusive observation technique instrument with competency assessment rubric is high, valid, and met reliability requirements. Multifaceted analysis compared students, items, and lecturers from small and large samples. The analysis reveals that students' difficulty levels vary according to the assessing lecturer, with some mastering all items and others only mastering specific ones.

Abstract

Evaluation of progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) intervention testing is deemed necessary for air traffic controllers as their role in controlling aircraft airways requires high focus with stable physical and mental conditions. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of progressive muscle relaxation in improving health status, quality of life, and reducing psychological fatigue in air traffic controllers. A quasi-experimental pre-test post-test control group design was employed, involving 184 participants separated into intervention and control groups. The results showed that there was a significant difference in the pulse rate, oxygen level, specific diastolic blood pressure, depression, anxiety, quality of life domains 1 and 2, as well as feelings of fatigue before and after progressive muscle relaxation was implemented with p<0.05 but not in control group at the end of the observation. The Mann-Whitney U-Test results indicated that anxiety and pulse rate are variables reduced significantly in the two groups. It can be concluded that the implementation of PMR is effective to improve the health status, quality of life, and reduce psychological fatigue among controller in Indonesia.

Abstract

Wonogiri Regency, Indonesia, is a calcareous mountainous region which has limitations in terms of iodine content in soil and water. Kismantoro is one of the Sub-districts in the regency with severe iodine deficiency. This condition is related to the intake of iodine and factors that inhibit the intake of iodine such as goitrogens. This causal-comparative study was conducted to determine the difference of iodine and goitrogenic foods intakes among menopausal women in Kismantoro Sub-district. A total of 307 menopausal women were taken randomly. Iodine intake as well as goitrogens were measured using the semi quantitative-food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ). There was no difference in the percentage of recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for iodine intake (p=0.857) and goitrogens intake (p=0.084) among the menopausal women, but there were differences in energy, protein, carbohydrate, and fat intake (p<0.001) respectively. In addition, the prevalence of goiter was 10.4% which did not differ in the premenopausal, perimenopausal and postmenopausal groups (p=0.227). However, it was found that most menopausal women had insufficient iodine intake (71.3%) and frequent goitrogenic foods intake (68.7%). Thus, a synergistic manner between stakeholders is still needed to improve the variation of iodine food sources while consume less goitrogens in the area.
