Abstract

Introduction: Nurses working in acute healthcare settings often experience mental health disorders while caring for palliative care and critically ill patients. As the backbone of the healthcare system, their mental well-being warrants greater attention. This study aims to assess the prevalence of mental health disorders and associated factors among nurses working in selected acute care settings in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Method: This cross-sectional study examined the mental health of nurses employed in acute healthcare settings in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A total of 485 participants were recruited using simple random sampling and proportionate allocation methods. Data were collected using an online questionnaire based on the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale - 21 Items. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential tests, including t-tests and a one-way analysis of variance, to determine associations between mental health outcomes and participant characteristics. Results: The findings indicate that 59.8% of nurses reported normal depression levels, 28.2% experienced mild to moderate depression, and 12% suffered from severe or very severe depression. Regarding anxiety, 51.5% reported normal levels, 24.1% experienced mild to moderate anxiety, and 24.3% reported severe or extreme anxiety. Concerning stress, 73.4% of respondents indicated normal stress levels, 18.1% experienced mild to moderate stress, and 8.5% reported severe or extremely severe stress. Younger nurses and those with lower work experience exhibited significantly higher levels of stress, anxiety, and depression compared to their more experienced counterparts. Conclusions: The study findings suggest that while most respondents experienced average levels of stress, anxiety, and depression, more than one-fourth of nurses reported severe to very severe levels of anxiety and depression, with 12% experiencing severe or very severe depression. These results highlight the urgent need for targeted mental health interventions, improved workplace policies, and supportive environments for nurses working in acute healthcare settings, which may enhance their mental well-being, job satisfaction, and quality of patient care.

Abstract

Introduction: Parents of children with intellectual disabilities often deal with complex emotional and psychological challenges. This can affect parents' acceptance of their child's condition. Parental acceptance plays an important role in determining the ability to manage caregiving burden, which will have an impact on childcare. This study aims to analyze the relationship between acceptance and caregiving burden in parents of children with intellectual disabilities.  Method: This study used a cross-sectional design with total sampling technique involving 74 respondents. Inclusion criteria were biological parents who live together and care for children with intellectual disabilities at SLB-C TPA Jember and SLB Negeri Jember. Data was collected using the Parental Acceptation-Rejection Questionnaire (PARQ) and Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) and analyzed using Kendall's Tau-C correlation test. Results: The results showed that most respondents 68 (91.9%) had a high acceptance, while 42 (56.8%) experienced a mild burden. The p- value = 0.005 and the coefficient correlation r=-0,298, shows that there is negative relationship with a weak correlation between parental acceptance and caregiving burden in parents of children with intellectual disabilities. Conclusions: This study found that there is relationship between parental acceptance and the caregiving burden. The higher the parental acceptance, the lower the caregiving burden. Parents who can accept their children with intellectual disabilities tend to be more ready to deal challenges and are able to perform their parenting role with an adaptive attitude. Parental acceptance can reduce the perception of caregiving burden. The findings highlight that parents should increase their acceptance to children with intellectual disabilities to deal with parenting challenges more easily.

Abstract

Introduction: Elderly individuals are particularly vulnerable to psychosocial issues, one of the most common being loneliness. If left unaddressed, loneliness can lead to a reduced quality of life and an increased risk of mental health disorders, including depression and even suicidal behavior. One effective non-pharmacological intervention to reduce loneliness is group activity therapy, such as free drawing. This study aimed to identify the characteristics of the elderly, assess the level of loneliness they experience, and analyze the effect of free drawing activity therapy on reducing loneliness among elderly residents in the Nursing Home. Method: A quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a two-group pretest-posttest approach. A total of 60 elderly participants were selected through purposive sampling and divided evenly into intervention and control groups. The intervention group received free drawing activity therapy sessions from March to April 2025 at PSTW Budi Mulia 3. Results: Data were analyzed using paired t-tests and independent t-tests. The findings showed a significant reduction in the mean loneliness score in the intervention group, from 48.57 to 41.87 (p = 0.001), while the control group experienced a slight increase from 50.40 to 50.70 (p = 0.445). Furthermore, there was a statistically significant difference in post-intervention loneliness scores between the two groups (p = 0.001). Conclusions: In conclusion, free drawing activity therapy significantly reduced loneliness among elderly residents in nursing homes and may serve as a practical non-pharmacological strategy to enhance their psychosocial well-being.

Abstract

Introduction: Middle adolescents are closer to their peers as part of their search for identity, so they are easily influenced by social trends, including the use of social media. High intensity of use can trigger fear of missing out (FoMO). FoMO encourages negative social comparisons that lead to decreased self-esteem, especially when adolescents feel that their lives are less ideal than others. This has an impact on the mental health, self-confidence, and social relations of adolescents. This study aims to determine the relationship between FoMO and self-esteem in middle adolescents at Senior High School 2 of Jember. Method: This research uses a correlational quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used was total sampling, totaling 1083 students. The instruments used were the FoMOs questionnaire and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES). Data were analyzed univariately and bivariately with the Kendall Tau-c correlation test. Results: Bivariate analysis shows the value of ρ = 0.000 < 0.05, indicating a significant relationship between fear of missing out (FoMO) and self-esteem in middle adolescents at Senior High School 2 of Jember with a negative correlation direction. Conclusions: FoMO triggers a decrease in self-esteem in middle adolescents through upward social comparison of ideal content on social media. The important role of families, schools, and health workers, especially nurses, in helping teenagers manage stress due to FoMO, strengthen self-regulation, and increase self-esteem through digital education and emotional support.

Abstract

Introduction: College students often experience difficulties in managing their emotions effectively (emotional dysregulation), where individuals with high levels of emotional dysregulation tend to use non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) as a form of emotional management and to cope with negative influences. Research on the relationship between emotional dysregulation and NSSI among nursing students has not been conducted. Method: This study is a correlational analytical study with a cross-sectional design. The study population consisted of nursing students of the Faculty of Medicine, Public Health, and Nursing of Universitas Gadjah Mada (FK-KMK UGM). From this population a sample of 130 students was obtained through convenient sampling because the topic raised was sensitive so that respondents could participate in this research without being known by anyone else except the researcher. To measure the emotional dysregulation and non-suicidal self-injury the instruments of Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) and the Self-Harm Inventory (SHI) were used. Data analysis employed the Spearman Rank Correlation test. Results: Part of the nursing students (59.2%) of FK-KMK UGM experienced emotional dysregulation, but the majority (77.7%) did not engage in NSSI. Emotional dysregulation differed significantly only based on cohort, while NSSI did not show significant differences based on all respondent characteristics (age, gender, cohort, and residence). Correlation analysis of emotional dysregulation and NSSI yielded a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.496 with a significance value (p) of 0.001. Conclusions: There was a significant relationship with moderate strength and a positive direction between emotional dysregulation and NSSI among nursing students at FK-KMK UGM.

Abstract

Introduction: Armed conflict in Nigeria, particularly in Zamfara State, has resulted in numerous casualties, kidnappings, deaths, torture, rape, and destruction of property. This violence has been strongly associated with the development of mental health disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety disorders, and substance use disorders, especially in resource-limited settings like Zamfara. This study aimed to assess the mental health and psychological implications of armed conflict among survivors of rural banditry in Zamfara State. Method : A cross-sectional descriptive survey design was employed, involving 410 participants aged 11 years and above, selected through multistage and simple random sampling techniques. Data were collected using the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) and analysed using descriptive statistics with SPSS version 26.0. Results : The findings revealed that the majority of respondents experienced mild psychological symptoms (mean score 1.75), while a smaller proportion exhibited moderate symptoms (mean score 2.25 to ≤3). Additionally, some participants reported severe symptoms of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Conclusions : The study concludes that a significant proportion of survivors of rural banditry in Zamfara State experience varying degrees of psychological distress. Based on these findings, the study recommends urgent interventions and support for mental health in the region, including the provision of mental health services, psychological interventions, community support programs, capacity building, and continuous research and monitoring.

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.
