Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a persistent global health condition frequently accompanied by peripheral neuropathy, which presents as reduced foot sensitivity and elevates the risk of foot-related complications. Specific background: Sensory impairment in the lower extremities remains a common clinical concern among diabetes mellitus patients receiving care at primary health facilities. Knowledge gap: Existing studies largely emphasize peripheral circulation parameters, while focused evidence describing foot sensitivity changes remains limited. Aims: This study aimed to describe foot sensitivity among diabetes mellitus patients undergoing Buerger Allen therapy in a community health setting. Results: A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design was conducted with 82 participants. Monofilament testing revealed notable sensory changes in the intervention group, whereas the control group demonstrated relatively stable sensory findings. Novelty: This study places foot sensitivity as a primary clinical outcome rather than a secondary circulatory indicator. Implications: The findings support the incorporation of structured lower-extremity exercise within routine nursing care to address early sensory disturbances in diabetes mellitus. Highlights Buerger Allen therapy was accompanied by distinct foot sensory findings. Monofilament testing identified sensory patterns across intervention and control groups. Foot sensitivity served as a clinically meaningful outcome in diabetes care. Keywords Diabetes Mellitus, Buerger Allen Therapy, Foot Sensitivity, Diabetic Neuropathy, Nursing Care

Abstract

General Background: Children with intellectual disability experience persistent limitations in cognitive development that affect learning, attention, and daily functioning, necessitating structured therapeutic approaches within special education settings. Specific Background: Fine motor occupational therapy activities, particularly cutting and pasting, are assumed to engage hand–eye coordination, concentration, and visual–motor integration relevant to cognitive processes in children with intellectual disability. Knowledge Gap: Empirical studies examining cutting and pasting as a fine motor occupational therapy intervention for cognitive outcomes in children with intellectual disability remain limited. Aims: This study aimed to examine cognitive changes following fine motor occupational therapy using cutting and pasting activities among children with intellectual disability in a special school context. Results: A quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups involved 67 participants assessed using the Bender–Gestalt test. Significant cognitive improvement was observed in the intervention group (p = 0.000), while the control group showed no significant change (p = 0.083). Post-intervention comparison demonstrated a significant difference between groups (p = 0.002). Novelty: This study provides empirical evidence on the application of cutting and pasting as a fine motor occupational therapy approach specifically targeting cognitive functions in children with intellectual disability. Implications: The findings support the integration of cutting and pasting activities as structured occupational therapy and nursing interventions in special schools to support cognitive development and functional independence among children with special needs. Highlights • Fine motor occupational therapy activities showed measurable cognitive changes in children with intellectual disability• Cutting and pasting tasks differentiated cognitive outcomes between intervention and control groups• Structured occupational therapy supported learning processes in special school settings Keywords Fine Motor Occupational Therapy; Cognitive Function; Cutting And Pasting; Intellectual Disability; Special Education

Abstract

Background: Literary works often portray complex psychological conditions through characters’ inner struggles, providing insight into human emotional dynamics. Specific background: The novel Tersesat Setelah Terlahir Kembali presents a protagonist who experiences profound psychological turmoil following traumatic loss. Knowledge gap: Previous literary studies in Indonesia frequently describe inner conflict superficially and rarely integrate psychoanalytic and humanistic psychological frameworks in a structured manner. Aims: This study aims to examine the stages of the protagonist’s inner conflict and psychological disturbance using Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic concepts and Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Results: The findings reveal three sequential phases of inner conflict: initial emotional pressure, psychological breakdown, and posttraumatic emotional confusion, marked by imbalance among id, ego, and superego alongside unmet psychological needs. Novelty: This study offers an integrated reading of Freudian and Maslovian perspectives to explain the gradual progression of literary inner conflict. Implications: The results contribute to literary psychology by demonstrating how fictional narratives reflect complex human psychological processes and provide a deeper understanding of trauma representation in literature. Highlights The protagonist’s inner conflict unfolds through three psychological stages. Trauma is portrayed as a gradual and cumulative psychological process. Freudian and Maslovian perspectives offer a complementary literary reading. Keywords Literary Psychology, Inner Conflict, Psychological Trauma, Psychoanalytic Theory, Humanistic Psychology
