Abstract

Access and facilities for children with Down syndrome are still very limited, especially in border areas far from urban areas. The remote geographical location becomes an obstacle for parents in utilizing health and educational facilities for children with Down syndrome. This qualitative descriptive research aims to determine the obstacles faced by families in dealing with children with Down syndrome in border areas. Participants in this study were 6 parents of children with Down syndrome who were selected using the purposive sampling method. This research was conducted in one of the Indonesia-Malaysia border areas in West Kalimantan. The research results revealed three (3) themes of parental barriers in dealing with Down syndrome children, such as 1) Family barriers in getting special education for children, 2) Barriers in handling children, and 3) Limited information. Therefore, regional and central government support is very necessary in providing adequate education and health facilities for people with disabilities at the border

Abstract

Down syndrome is a trisomy genetic disorder resulting in cognitive delays in the fetus. Cognitive impairment in Down syndrome affects short-term memory and motor impairment due to the characteristic hypotonia of the muscles. People with Down syndrome tend to be visual learners. Through visuals, they are easier to remember and repeat. Visual memory in Down syndrome is better than auditory memory in receiving information. Therefore, the visual environment aspect is presented as a facility in architectural element designs to improve cognition, memory, and motor skills in the wayfinding orientation stimulus. Aspects of the visual environment are offered to stimulate the sensory vision repeatedly. Sensory architecture has a role in activating the body in receiving information, exploring the world, providing taste, and forming social relationships. This paper aims to discuss the design of the visual environment in stimulating the sensory vision of people with Down syndrome to facilitate wayfinding orientation. Visual environment design through colours, patterns, materials, and light are presented as tools to activate visual understanding in responding to and remembering wayfinding orientations. Aspects of the visual environment are communication and encouraging physical activity for users.

Abstract

In Indonesia's manufacturing industry, which employs the third-largest workforce in the country, employee engagement is a critical measure of labor's contribution. Despite the industry's importance, diversity management—a key driver of engagement—lags, with low representation of women and persons with disabilities and persistent ethnic and racial discrimination in a nation known for its multiculturalism. Additionally, ageism is prevalent, manifesting as discrimination across different age groups. This study investigates the influence of four principal dimensions of diversity management—ethnic, gender, disability, and age—on employee engagement within the sector. Conducted as a field study in a manufacturing industry in Cilegon with 218 participants, the research provides insightful findings. Notably, it identifies age diversity management as the sole dimension with a significant impact on employee engagement, while the other three—ethnic, gender, and disability diversity management—do not show a substantial effect.

Abstract

Students with disabilities face challenges in their daily lives due to their limitations. This often causes them a lot of stress, as they have to adapt to an environment dominated by non-disabled students. To deal with this difficult situation and maintain their survival, students with disabilities need to have abilities that can support them, namely resilience. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between gratitude and resilience in students with disabilities. This study used a quantitative method with a correlation design. The sample of this study consisted of 108 students with disabilities obtained by purposive sampling technique. Measurements were made using the Indonesian Gratitude Scale (Skala Bersyukur Indonesia (SBI)) (a=0.88) and The Connor-Davidson Resilience scale (CD-RISC) (a=0.92). Data analysis used Karl Pearson's Product Moment method, and found a correlation coefficient between gratitude and resilience of 0.316 with a significance of 0.000 (p<0.01). The results showed a significant positive relationship between gratitude and resilience in students with disabilities. This shows that gratitude is a factor that plays a role in increasing the resilience of students with disabilities. The implication of this study is the importance of students with disabilities having gratitude that can help them adapt and thrive in difficult situations. It is hoped that future research can use different variables or different subjects to broaden understanding in this field.Top of Form

Abstract

The problem of accessibility to information and technology for people with disabilities in Indonesia is one of the state's responsibilities that must be implemented comprehensively. This study aims to determine the state's responsibility in fulfilling disability rights to information and telecommunications in Indonesia and aims to construct the ideal form of fulfillment of disability rights to information and telecommunications through assistive technology models. The research uses a normative-empirical method with a conceptual approach, a statutory approach, and a case approach. The results of the study show: First, the state's responsibility for protecting the rights of persons with disabilities to information and technology has been regulated in Article 28 F of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and in Law Number 8 of 2016 concerning Persons with Disabilities as many as 13 (thirteen) articles. The regulation contains 8 (eight) substances for regulating the right to information for persons with disabilities. The implementation of these provisions has not run optimally because there are still services that are not friendly to persons with disabilities. Second, efforts to encourage the formation of assistive technology for people with disabilities in the country by referring to the needs of people with disabilities in Indonesia. This can be done by establishing two types of assistive technology for persons with disabilities of school age and above school age by adjusting features and services that are friendly to disabilities.

Abstract

Inclusive education has become increasingly common worldwide, even in higher education; however, the corresponding practical support in Indonesia is limited. Herein, a support website was developed for postsecondary students with learning difficulties vis-à-vis campus life in Indonesia. Web contents and information for supporting such students were developed from an occupational therapy perspective, including considering web accessibility and university lecturers’ opinion in Indonesia. After the feedback on the pre-launched version administered to current students in Indonesia, this new tool had a good level of satisfaction regarding the provision of support to such students’ academic activities on campus. However, information volume and display organization may require improvements in the future. Furthermore, the website could not only facilitate support for postsecondary students with learning difficulties in connection to the awareness of this area, which is limited in Indonesia, but also elucidate the role of occupational therapists.

Abstract

Many persons with disabilities (PWDs) participated in working environment in Indonesia who participate in the working environment in Indonesia often report mistreatment and discrimination that they receive within the workplace. Despite many organizations and researchers purposefully seeking to improve inclusion within the workplace, challenges emerge due to the lack of understanding about the perspectives of PWDs regarding the adjustments and improvements needed to achieve better inclusivity. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven PWDs from various industries and disability conditions. The aim was to gain an in-depth understanding of PWDs perspectives about inclusion practices in their respective workplaces. In principle, the results show that the discriminative assumptions about PWDs can be considered as a one-dimensional view and do not provide a chance for PWDs to prove otherwise. However, these discriminatory views influence the treatment of PWDs on multiple levels. Furthermore, the results also highlighted issues experienced by PWDs in the recruitment, selection, social integration, and performance management phases. Improvements to address the issues highlighted by PWDs are focused on adjustment on recruitment procedures, improvement on accessible facilities and adjustments, providing accessible information system, improve employee capabilities through training and development, as well as provide mechanism to enable job flexibility. Furthermore, these steps need organizational value and diversity enhancement, and could be helped by collaboration with third party organization. The findings might help companies to enhance inclusion in their workplaces through effective ways and directly addressing the issues experienced by PWDs.
