Abstract

Introduction: In the digital era, gadget use among preschool-aged children has become increasingly common, raising concerns about its impact on emotional development. Excessive screen time may reduce social interaction and increase emotional disturbances, such as irritability and anxiety. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between gadget use and emotional problems among preschool children at TK Al-Qur'an Almujahidin Krui in 2024. Method: A cross-sectional quantitative analytical design was used. A total of 103 children aged 4–6 years were selected through purposive sampling. Emotional problems were assessed using the Kuisioner Masalah Mental Emosional (KMME), a validated 12-item instrument. Children with diagnosed neurodevelopmental disorders were excluded. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test and odds ratio (OR) with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: Among the 103 participants, 26 (25.2%) had doubtful emotional problems and 77 (74.8%) exhibited deviant emotional behaviors. Children with bad gadget use were 7.71 times more likely to experience emotional problems compared to those with good gadget use (OR = 7.71, p = 0.034). A significant association was found between higher levels of gadget use and increased emotional disturbances. Conclusion: There is a statistically significant relationship between gadget use and emotional problems in preschool children. Excessive gadget use may negatively affect emotional well-being, emphasizing the need for parents and educators to monitor and regulate children’s screen time to support healthy emotional development.

Abstract

Introduction: Dysmenorrhea is a common menstrual complaint among adolescent girls, often impacting daily activities and emotional well-being. Non-pharmacological interventions, such as aromatherapy, are gaining attention for their potential in pain management. Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) contains compounds with analgesic and calming properties that may reduce menstrual pain. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of lemongrass aromatherapy in reducing dysmenorrhea pain intensity among adolescents. Method: An experimental study using a one-group pre-test post-test design was conducted at Al-Riyadl Islamic Boarding School, Cipanas, from March to May 2025. A total of 30 female adolescents were selected through accidental sampling. Pain intensity before and after the aromatherapy intervention was measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS). Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate methods. Result: The average pain intensity before aromatherapy was 15.50 (SD = 8.803), which significantly decreased to 1.23 (SD = 7.281) after treatment. Statistical analysis revealed a p-value < .001, indicating a significant reduction in pain. Conclusion: Lemongrass aromatherapy is effective in significantly reducing dysmenorrhea pain among adolescents. Its natural, accessible, and low-risk characteristics make it a promising complementary therapy, particularly in settings with limited access to conventional medical care.

Abstract

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a global health concern requiring long-term self-care management. Health coaching has emerged as a behavioral intervention to support individuals with T2DM, yet the specific roles of nurses within this context remain underexplored. Objective: This scoping review aims to map existing literature regarding the roles of nurses in health coaching interventions designed to enhance self-care management among individuals with T2DM. Method: The review followed the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for scoping reviews. A systematic search was conducted across databases including PubMed, ScienceDirect, Wiley Online, and ProQuest, targeting peer-reviewed studies published between 2009 and 2019. Articles were selected based on predefined inclusion criteria and underwent thematic analysis to identify recurring roles of nurses. Results: Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Four primary nursing roles emerged in health coaching for T2DM patients: educator, supporter, advocate, and care coordinator. Nurses provided individualized and group education, emotional and informational support, facilitated communication with healthcare providers, and ensured continuity of care through coordination. Three models of care coordination were identified, with nurses acting as intermediaries, collaborators, or lead coaches. Conclusion: Nurses play multifaceted roles in health coaching to enhance self-care management in individuals with T2DM. Among the identified roles, the integration of educational and supportive functions showed the greatest impact on improving patient outcomes. These findings underscore the importance of integrating nurse-led health coaching into diabetes care strategies to empower patients and improve glycemic control.

Abstract

Introduction: University students, particularly those in health-related programs, are often subjected to various academic demands that must be completed within strict timeframes. These demands, coupled with a lack of preparedness to cope, can lead to psychological issues such as stress. Globally, stress affects more than 350 million people and ranks as the fourth most common health problem. Objective: This study aimed to determine the relationship between spirituality levels and stress among freshmen in the Health Sciences Program at Universitas Muhammadiyah Kalimantan Timur. Methods: This research employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. A total of 271 respondents were selected using random sampling. The instruments used were the Daily Spiritual Experience Scale (DSES) to measure spirituality and the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) to measure stress levels. Data were analyzed using the Spearman rank correlation test. Results: The majority of respondents had a high level of spirituality (160 respondents or 59%), while most respondents also reported normal levels of stress (159 respondents or 58.7%). Statistical analysis revealed a negative correlation between spirituality and stress levels, with a correlation coefficient of -0.417 and a p-value of 0.000, indicating a significant inverse relationship. Conclusion: The findings indicate that higher levels of spirituality are associated with lower levels of stress among new health students. This suggests that spirituality may serve as a protective factor and should be considered in holistic student support and stress management programs in higher education settings.
