Abstract

Introduction: Transgender women (locally known as waria) represent a key population that is highly vulnerable to HIV/AIDS. Elevated rates of risky sexual behavior, limited access to healthcare services, and pervasive social stigma and discrimination intensify this vulnerability. Although intervention programs, such as Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT), are available, the awareness and personal experiences of transgender individuals concerning these services remain underexplored. This study aimed to delve into the lived experiences of transgender women in Malang, East Java. Method: This research employed a qualitative design informed by a phenomenological approach. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with 12 purposively selected transgender participants, alongside field observations. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to uncover patterns and meanings within the participants' subjective experiences. Results: The study revealed four key themes: a limited understanding of HIV and its associated risks, low engagement with HIV testing services, psychological distress following a positive diagnosis, and risky sexual behaviors driven by financial necessity. Participants expressed inadequate knowledge about HIV transmission, inconsistent condom usage, irregular testing habits, emotional distress, internalized stigma, and ongoing high-risk behaviors influenced by economic pressures. Conclusions: Transgender women face a range of intricate challenges. Despite possessing some awareness of HIV, factors such as limited testing participation, psychological distress, and economic vulnerability contribute to the persistence of risky sexual practices. It is crucial to implement integrated interventions that focus on health education, mental health support, improved access to services, and economic empowerment to reduce the ongoing risk of HIV transmission effectively.

Abstract

Introduction: Caregivers of pediatric oncology patients play a crucial role in treatment adherence and emotional support, but often face significant psychological distress and physical fatigue, affecting their well-being and caregiving. This study assessed the impact of structured counseling on reducing distress and fatigue among these caregivers in a tertiary care setting. Methods: A pre–post interventional study involved 50 caregivers, measuring psychological distress with the Distress Thermometer and fatigue using the SAFE Scale. Baseline assessments were conducted prior to four individualized counseling sessions aimed at providing support, developing coping strategies, managing stress, and encouraging self-care. Post-intervention assessments utilized the same tools to evaluate changes in distress and fatigue. Results: Following the counseling intervention, caregivers exhibited statistically significant improvements across all measured outcomes. Mean distress scores decreased from 8.92 ± 0.80 to 4.96 ± 0.86, reflecting a mean reduction of 3.96 points (p < 0.001). The mean extent of fatigue declined from 15.00 ± 0.00 to 4.38 ± 0.49, indicating a mean reduction of 10.62 points (p < 0.001). Similarly, the mean fatigue impact score fell from 30.00 ± 0.00 to 12.00 ± 0.00, with a mean reduction of 18.00 points (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Structured psychiatric counseling significantly alleviated psychological distress and physical fatigue among caregivers of pediatric oncology patients. Integrating caregiver-focused counseling into routine pediatric oncology care may enhance caregivers' well-being and, in turn, improve patient outcomes.

Abstract

Introduction: Academic burnout is characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced academic efficacy. Final-year nursing students are particularly vulnerable due to academic rigor, clinical expectations, intensive supervision, and the demands of undergraduate thesis completion. During this phase, peer support may function as a relational resource that helps students interpret and manage academic strain. This study aimed to explore and describe the lived experiences of final-year nursing students participating in peer support activities in relation to burnout during the thesis-writing process. Method: A qualitative study with a descriptive phenomenological approach was conducted. Twelve final-year nursing students engaged in thesis preparation were recruited using criterion sampling. Data were collected through face-to-face, semi-structured in-depth interviews and transcribed verbatim. Thematic analysis supported by NVivo 12 was applied, remaining grounded in Husserlian phenomenology through bracketing and reflexive journaling to ensure rigor and trustworthiness. Results: Five themes emerged: (1) contributing factors to burnout, including academic pressures, family constraints, and intrapersonal vulnerabilities; (2) manifestations of peer support in emotional, informational, and instrumental forms; (3) outcomes of peer support reflected in more structured thesis writing, enhanced motivation, and increased self-efficacy; (4) ideal support systems combining peer collaboration and individual coping strategies; and (5) the impact of insufficient peer support, resulting in daily disruption, hindered thesis progress, and psychological distress. Conclusions: Burnout is shaped by academic, relational, and personal factors. Participation in peer support activities strengthens motivation, self-efficacy, and academic engagement, whereas its absence intensifies psychological strain. Supportive peer environments are essential to sustain students’ resilience during thesis completion.

Abstract

Introduction: Adolescents' failure to cope with new roles and developmental tasks often leads to the emergence of mental health problems. Moreover, for adolescents who live in pesantren are required to be independent and quickly adapt because they are far from their parents and different environment from home. This study aims to analyze internal and external factors that affect the mental health of adolescents in pesantren, including autonomy and independence, coping mechanisms, spirituality, relationships with peers and social support. Method: The type of research is quantitative with a cross-sectional approach conducted on adolescent aged 13-20 years at the Pondok Pesantren Miftahul Ulum in Kalisat Jember with a total sampling technique of 49 respondents using 6 valid and reliable instruments. Data analysis used multiple linear regression tests. Results: The results showed that significant factors related to mental health were spirituality (p = 0.018), relationships with peers (p = 0.037), and social support (p = 0.042). Spirituality was the most dominant factor with an OR=3,220 value. This means that adolescents with high spirituality are 3.22 times more likely to have good mental health. Conclusions: These findings confirm the importance of strengthening spirituality as the main protective factor, in addition to the need for interventions to improve peer relationships and social support to optimize the mental health of pesantren-based adolescents.

Abstract

Introduction: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a significant mental health concern among hospitalized patients, particularly those who experience critical illness or surgical interventions. Nurses, who are closely involved in patient care, are well-positioned to deliver supportive interventions that may mitigate PTSD symptoms. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of nurse-led interventions in reducing PTSD symptoms among inpatients. Method: A comprehensive search of databases was conducted, and seven randomized controlled trials were included, involving 979 participants across various inpatient settings. The interventions varied in content, delivery format, and timing, and included strategies such as logotherapy-based conversations, ICU diaries, and structured psychological consultations Results: Five studies indicated interventions were not effective in reducing PTSD symptoms, while two found them effective. The overall certainty of evidence was low due to methodological limitations, small sample sizes, and outcome variability. Conclusions: S Current evidence doesn't support the standalone effectiveness of nurse-led interventions for PTSD. Future efforts must focus on rigorous, theory-based designs and addressing the underlying need for more mental health training and better team integration for nurses.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction: Caregivers of schizophrenia patients face emotional, physical, and social stress that can weaken family resilience. Their mental health is often at risk, causing distress and unstable emotion regulation. These factors may harm care quality, highlighting need to support caregivers’ mental health and emotion regulation. Method: A systematic review of quantitative studies was conducted. Relevant full-text articles were sourced from five databases: ProQuest, Science direct, Sage Journals, and Taylor & Francis database inception to April 2025. Articles used from 2020 to 2025. Searching for articles or journals uses keywords and Boolean operators. Bias was assessed with Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) tool. We followed the protocols and rules of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) guidelines. Results: A total of 1.567 article were found. There were 10 relevant papers found in the literature search. Total of 2.007 participants age 18 to 85 years, from 7 countries, families caring for a family member with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. The majority of studies (n=10) reported that family resilience is influenced by several factors, including sociodemographic characteristics, educational background, stigma, economic conditions, physical health status, psychosocial factors especially particularly adaptive coping strategies and the quality of the caregiver with patient relationship. Conclusions: This review highlights that emotion regulation, particularly through adaptive strategies like cognitive reappraisal and positive coping, plays a key role in enhancing family resilience among caregivers of individuals with schizophrenia. Strengthening emotional regulation can reduce caregiver burden and improve overall psychological well-being. Keyword: emotion regulation; resilience; family caregiver; schizophrenia; burden

Abstract

Introduction: Mental disorders affect individuals mentally, emotionally, and socially, with families often serving as the primary caregivers responsible for patient care. This role frequently induces stress in families due to stigma, financial burdens, and role changes. Unmanaged stress can negatively impact both patient care and family well-being. Effective coping strategies are crucial to help families manage stress. However, research on the stress levels and coping mechanisms of families of individuals with mental disorders in South Sulawesi, particularly in Makassar, remains limited. Method: This study used a descriptive quantitative method. The instruments used include the Perceived Stress Scale and Brief Cope questionnaire. The sample for this study consisted of 210 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. Results: The results of this study show that the majority of respondents are in the adult age group (19–59 years), with most being female (73.8%). The largest proportion of respondents are from the Bugis ethnic group (41%) and are Muslim (91%). Most respondents have a high school education (44.3%), are unemployed (46.7%), and are married (71%). The majority of respondents have an income below the regional minimum wage (Rp 3,642,321). The relationship of respondents to the patients with mental disorders is mostly that of a mother (29.5%), with most respondents living with the patient (84.8%) and using BPJS as the payment method (86.7%). The average duration of the family member's mental disorder is 8.1 years. The stress level experienced by families of patients with mental disorders is mostly moderate (84.8%), followed by mild stress (14.3%) and severe stress (1%). All respondents use adaptive coping mechanisms (100%). Conclusions: the majority of families of patients with mental disorders at RSKD Dadi experience a moderate level of stress, with all respondents using adaptive coping mechanisms. Future research is recommended to use more comprehensive data collection methods, such as in-depth interviews and observations, to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of families in caring for patients with mental disorders

Abstract

Introduction: Parents raising a child with disabilities experience a range of complex physical, psychological, social, and economic challenges. Internal psychological factors, particularly self-efficacy, often influence a parent's ability to cope with these difficulties. Higher levels of self-efficacy improve a family's capacity to adapt to and recover from the stress of caregiving, a concept known as family resilience. This study aims to explore the relationship between self-efficacy and family resilience among parents of children with disabilities. Method: This study employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of 59 parents of children with disabilities, selected using total sampling. Data were collected using a modified self-efficacy questionnaire based on Bandura’s theory and a family resilience questionnaire adapted from Walsh’s model. Data analysis was conducted using Spearman Rank correlation with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results: The findings indicated that the majority of respondents exhibited high self-efficacy (94.9%) and high family resilience (96.6%). A very strong positive correlation was identified between self-efficacy and family resilience (r = 0.809; p < 0.001). Conclusion: The study reveals a strong link between self-efficacy and family resilience in parents of children with disabilities. It underscores the need to enhance parental self-efficacy to boost family resilience when facing caregiving challenges.
