Abstract

In 2021, West Java recorded one of the highest stunting rates in Indonesia, with Garut Regency reporting a prevalence of 35.2 percent among children under five. This public health crisis extends beyond nutritional deficiencies and is exacerbated by suboptimal parenting practices and limited access to basic health services such as posyandu. This study aims to analyze the influence of gender roles in parenting, the frequency of child visits to posyandu, and how parental and child characteristics affect the quality of care for stunted children. A cross-sectional design was applied, involving 40 parents of stunted children in Wanamekar Village, Wanaraja District, using purposive sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression. The results revealed significant relationships among gender roles in parenting, health service utilization, and caregiving quality. Regression analysis further demonstrated that child’s birth order, height, parental age, father’s education, mother’s occupation, father’s income, number of household members, child’s health insurance status, and gender-equitable parenting significantly influenced caregiving quality. These findings underscore the importance of integrated, gender-responsive strategies that prioritize equitable parental involvement and access to essential health services. This study offers empirical evidence to support family-centered policy initiatives aimed at improving early childhood development outcomes in resource-limited rural settings.

Abstract

Retirement presents economic, social, and psychological challenges, particularly in regions with weak social welfare systems. It is therefore necessary to identify practical strategies that ensure sustainable post-employment living.This study examines the role of skill acquisition in promoting sustainable living among retirees in Ondo West Local Government Area, Nigeria. A descriptive survey research design was employed, with data collected from 38 purposively selected retirees through a structured questionnaire comprising 40 items. The instrument contained sections on demographic characteristics, engagement in skill acquisition, perceived benefits and barriers, and strategies for enhancement. Descriptive and inferential statistics, including mean, variance, and t-tests, were used for analysis. Findings reveal that retirees recognize skill acquisition as a viable strategy for ensuring financial independence, social engagement, and personal fulfillment, with notable gender differences in skill preferences. However, barriers such as financial constraints, lack of awareness, and insufficient institutional support were identified. The study recommends early pre-retirement training, increased financial support, and community-driven interventions to enhance retirees’ economic stability. Although localized in Ondo West, the study provides insights with wider relevance for sustainable retirement planning in developing economies

Abstract

The end of a person's working life presents a new challenge as they enter old age. The issues faced by retirees can affect family resilience. This study aims to analyze the influence of family interaction, social support, and coping strategies on family resilience after retirement. The research used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design and purposive sampling method. The study involved 40 families with husbands who had retired within the past three years, were married, and had children, all residing in Cibinong District, Bogor Regency. The results showed that family interaction, social support, and coping strategies were at a moderate level, while family resilience was at a high level. Correlation tests revealed a significant positive relationship between the wife's age and family interaction, a significant negative relationship between the husband's education and social support, and a significant positive relationship between family interaction and social support. Multiple linear regression analysis showed a significant positive influence of the wife's age on family resilience. The husband's age and education had a significant negative influence on family resilience, while family income had a significant positive influence. Nuclear family support and the self-control dimension had a positive effect on family resilience. Meanwhile, the escape-avoidance and planful problem-solving dimensions had a significant negative effect on family resilience. Therefore, efforts are needed by families to maintain effective communication, enhance social support, and practice good emotional management in post-retirement family life.

Abstract

Marital satisfaction is the primary goal of a marriage and can be influenced by marital attachment and conflict management. This study aims to analyze the influence of marital attachment and family conflict management on marital satisfaction among middle-aged couples. Data were collected using purposive sampling, involving wives from intact families aged 40–59 years, with adolescent children or from empty nest families. The study was conducted in Lowokwaru Subdistrict, Malang City, involving 66 wives with an average age of 45.97 years. More than three-quarters of the wives from families with adolescent children and empty nest families reported having a secure attachment with their husbands. More than three-quarters of wives from families with adolescent children and more than half from empty nest families demonstrated a moderate level of conflict management. In terms of marital satisfaction, nearly half of the wives from families with adolescent children were categorized as having high satisfaction, while more than half of the wives from empty nest families were in the moderate category. Secure attachment and conflict management were found to have a significant positive relationship with marital satisfaction. Regression analysis showed that longer marital duration, being a family with adolescent children, and effective conflict management had a significant positive effect, while the husband’s age and the wife's employment status had a significant negative effect on marital satisfaction. Younger husbands, longer marital duration, unemployed wives, effective conflict management, and being a family with adolescent children were associated with increased marital satisfaction. Middle-aged husbands and wives are encouraged to actively express care and affection toward each other. Future studies are expected to further examine marital attachment variables and include husbands as research subjects.

Abstract

Fisherman families experience objective economic pressure due to unstable income, thus requiring coping strategies to avoid family vulnerability. This study aims to analyze the influence of objective economic pressure and coping strategies on the vulnerability of fisherman families. The study employed a cross-sectional design involving 105 intact fisherman families with school-age children in Muara Angke Fishing Village, North Jakarta, selected through purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and path analysis. The correlation analysis showed that the husband’s years of education were significantly and negatively related to objective economic pressure. Per capita income was significantly and negatively associated with objective economic pressure, coping strategies, and family vulnerability. Family size was significantly and positively associated with objective economic pressure. Objective economic pressure was significantly and positively associated with coping strategies and family vulnerability, while coping strategies were significantly and negatively associated with family vulnerability. The path analysis revealed that per capita income had a significant direct negative effect on objective economic pressure. Furthermore, per capita income had significant indirect negative effects on coping strategies and family vulnerability through objective economic pressure. Objective economic pressure had significant positive direct effects on both coping strategies and family vulnerability. Based on the findings, fisherman families are recommended to seek additional income sources, maintain assets, save money, avoid conflicts, and share household responsibilities among family members

Issues such as water cleanliness, sanitation, and limited household facilities contribute to an unhealthy living environment, which negatively affects child health. Various illnesses were observed among the children, with skin rashes being the most common and persistent. Other illnesses included influenza, diarrhea, dengue fever, vomiting, colds, and asthma, though these were less frequent. Overall, the study found a significant positive relationship between clean and healthy parenting, environmental conditions, and toddler health status

Abstract

Middle-aged families represent a transitional stage in which the youngest child leaves the parental home and couples begin to enter retirement age. This stage often gives rise to emotional challenges, such as empty nest syndrome, which may affect marital quality. This study aimed to analyze the influence of social support and family interaction on marital quality among middle-aged families. A cross-sectional design was employed, involving 32 wives as respondents who were still living with their husbands while all children had already lived separately. The study was conducted in Gunung Batu Subdistrict, West Bogor District. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed through descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression. The findings show that social support and family interaction were generally at moderate levels. Support from the nuclear family was high, whereas support from extended family and neighbors was low. Marital quality was mostly low, particularly in the happiness dimension, although satisfaction tended to be higher. Regression analysis showed that husband–wife interaction had a significant positive effect on marital quality, whereas parent–child interaction had a significant negative effect. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening family interactions to support marital quality in middle-aged families

Abstract

Female university students generally have the potential to spend up to half of their monthly allowance on beauty-related products. Of this amount, approximately 30 percent may be specifically allocated to makeup needs. Excessive and need-exceeding purchasing habits of makeup products among female students can lead to financial inefficiency, thereby fostering consumptive behavior. This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional research design. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling, specifically voluntary sampling. A total of 217 female students participated as respondents in this study. The results of the correlation analysis indicate that female students from faculties with a social science orientation, such as the Faculty of Human Ecology, the Faculty of Economics and Management, and the School of Business, tend to exhibit higher levels of consumptive behavior in purchasing makeup products. Furthermore, female students with higher monthly allowances tend to have lower levels of self-control and higher levels of consumptive behavior related to makeup purchases. The results of the influence analysis reveal that consumptive behavior in makeup product purchases among female students is significantly influenced by negative self-control and positive peer conformity. Therefore, female students are encouraged to enhance their self-control in order to avoid tendencies toward consumptive behavior.
