Abstract

This study examines the role of therapeutic communication styles in managing spinal tuberculosis (TB) care, emphasizing their impact on building trust, reducing anxiety, and motivating patient engagement. Employing a qualitative approach grounded in the post-positivist paradigm, the research was conducted at RS Premiere Bintaro with an orthopaedic surgeon and a purposive sample of spinal TB patients and their caregivers as participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and non-participatory observations, analyzed using a thematic framework. The findings reveal that communication styles such as Impression, Attentive, Open, and Friendly styles significantly enhance therapeutic relationships. The Impression Style fosters trust through positive first impressions, while the Attentive Style reinforces empathy and active listening, addressing psychological and emotional concerns. The Open Style empowers patients by providing transparent and comprehensive explanations, and the Friendly Style alleviates anxiety using humor and informal conversations. Additionally, involving caregivers using the Relinquishing Style underscores the importance of shared decision-making and collaborative care. This study highlights the necessity of adopting adaptable communication styles tailored to patient and caregiver needs in managing chronic conditions like spinal TB. It recommends integrating these styles into healthcare training programs, emphasizing the ethical use of humour and non-verbal communication to enhance patient comfort and adherence. Future research should explore diverse settings and larger sample sizes to validate these findings and extend their generalizability.

Abstract

In the era of increasing globalization, the diversity of cultures and religions in Indonesia presents significant challenges for the education system. Religious tolerance, a crucial aspect of fostering a harmonious and civilized society, must be instilled from an early age. Civic Education (PKn) at the elementary school level plays a key role in this process, as its curriculum aims to cultivate responsible citizens who respect differences and can coexist peacefully with others of varied backgrounds. Despite various policies and programs aimed at promoting tolerance, incidents of intolerance among youth persist, indicating that current educational approaches may not be fully effective. This research seeks to evaluate and analyze the implementation of PKn in enhancing religious tolerance at the elementary school level, focusing on teaching methods and student engagement. Using a literature review with a critical analysis approach, the study examines books, journal articles, research reports, and policy documents related to PKn and religious tolerance. The findings reveal that PKn is effective in instilling tolerance values, though challenges such as inadequate teacher training and resource limitations hinder its full potential. The study concludes with recommendations for improving PKn implementation to better address the needs of the 21st century, emphasizing the need for a collaborative effort among government, schools, and families to support a more inclusive educational environment. This research underscores the importance of refining PKn practices and offers a foundation for future studies on civic education and religious tolerance.

It highlights the importance of supervision by the Health Office and socialization to traditional healers and the public regarding licensing obligations and safety standards.

Abstract

Islamic populism as part of contemporary political dynamics in Indonesia is unlikely to ever subside even though Indonesia was hit by the Covid 19 outbreak. In the context of power contestation, many scholars have argued that Islamic populism in Indonesia plays a very important role in supporting the elite to mobilize the masses and gain support for their political legitimacy.  However, there is limited study to explain the role of ideology the FPI as social agent of Islamic populism.  The study exemplifies the role of ideology of the Front Islamic Defender reflecting in the idea of ‘amar maruf nahi mungkar’ in current development of Islamic politics in Indonesia. By using a structural political economy approach, the author argues that although the formal organisation of the FPI has been dismantled by the Indonesian governement, yet the Islamic populism as a contested idea that has strong historical roots will continue to exist and develop if the contestation for power continues. As a political ideology that has a strong social and material basis, ‘amaruf nahi mungkar’ will still exist and become the ideological basis that supports the legitimacy of political elites in the contest for power and resources.

Abstract

The Collaborative abilities are essential for student achievement in the educational environment of the twenty-first century. Nonetheless, both international and domestic evaluations have shown that college students frequently struggle to collaborate well with others, interact critically, and co-create knowledge. In order to foster collaborative abilities, this study intends to investigate the effects of incorporating the Trilogy of Scientific Philosophy Thinking ontology, epistemology, and axiology into the Asian Community Education course. The study used a posttest-only control group and a quasi-experimental design. Two courses were used: the control group got case studies with no philosophical integration, whereas the experimental group was instructed using case studies enhanced with philosophical trilogy materials. Purposive sampling was used to choose the sample, which included 60 college students. A collaborative skills questionnaire was used to gather data, and both descriptive and inferential statistics were used for analysis. According to the results, the experimental group outperformed the control group on all four aspects of collaboration: respect for variety, communication, accountability, and interdependence (p < 0.05). These findings demonstrate how philosophical reasoning might improve students' ability to work together in a meaningful way. Building future-ready students and transformational community educators requires introspective, ethical, and integrative thinking, all of which are fostered by incorporating philosophical frameworks into learning modules.
