Abstract

Background: Child sexual abuse (CSA) is a major global public health concern, affecting 18% of girls and 7.6% of boys worldwide. In Indonesia, over 14,000 cases were reported in 2022, underscoring the urgency of preventive action. Early sexuality education effectively reduces CSA risk; however, its implementation is limited by cultural taboos, parental discomfort, and inadequate communication skills. Mothers play a vital role in teaching body safety and personal boundaries, but related behaviors and influencing factors are underexplored in Indonesia. Objective: To examine mothers’ behaviors in providing sexuality education to young children and identify the influencing factors and barriers. Methods: A descriptive-analytical survey was conducted among 42 mothers of kindergarten students in Sawangan District, Magelang, from January to March 2025. Mothers’ behavior in delivering sexuality education served as the dependent variable, while independent variables included intention, self-efficacy, attitude, perception, communication barriers, and husband’s support. Data were collected using validated questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics and path analysis. Results: Mothers mainly discussed topics related to family roles, boundaries, and hygiene, but rarely covered pregnancy or childbirth. The analysis showed that intention influenced behavior (β = 0.486, p = 0.000), and was predicted by self-efficacy (β = 0.714, p = 0.000). Self-efficacy was shaped by barriers, perception, and attitude, while husband’s support helped reduce barriers. Conclusion: Enhancing mothers’ self-efficacy, addressing cultural barriers, and involving fathers can strengthen the delivery of sexuality education. This study advances understanding of parental determinants in CSA prevention within Indonesia’s cultural context.

Abstract

Background: Research on the search for professional psychological help has gained increasing attention in recent years. However, comprehensive analyses of trends and thematic developments within this field remain limited. Objective: This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the scientific literature on seeking professional psychological help and to map the research landscape.  Methods: Researchers performed a bibliometric data analysis using VOSviewer, based on data retrieved from the Scopus database between 2015 and 2024. This analysis involved creating visual maps based on the co-occurrence of keywords and thematic clustering. Results: A total of 1,522 documents were identified, with a significant increase in publications in 2024. PLOS ONE emerged as the journal with the highest number of publications. The United States contributed the largest number of publications. Conclusion: Network analysis revealed seven major research clusters, highlighting interconnected themes across studies. Emerging areas for future research include mental health professionals, psychological help-seeking behavior, help-seeking intentions, and service utilization. Additionally, key influencing variables such as mental health literacy, peer support, and self-stigma were identified as potential focal points for further investigation. These findings provide a comprehensive overview of the field and offer valuable insights for advancing research and practice in professional psychological help-seeking.

Abstract

Background: Stunting remains a major public health issue in Indonesia, reflecting chronic undernutrition and recurrent infections in early childhood. Exclusive breastfeeding and immunization are key interventions to promote healthy growth and child survival, aligning with SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being). However, evidence on their combined effects on stunting is inconsistent, especially in rural areas like Sumedang, where local data are limited. Objective: This study aimed to examine the association between exclusive breastfeeding, immunization status, and stunting among children aged 2–5 years in rural Indonesia. Methods: A community-based, case–control study involved 132 children (66 stunted and 66 non-stunted), aged 24–59 months. Data on stunting, breastfeeding, and immunization were collected via structured questionnaires and verified through child health records. Purposive sampling was used. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, Chi-square tests, and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Children not exclusively breastfed had a significantly higher risk of stunting (p=0.001; OR=3.27, 95% CI: 1.48–7.22). Immunization completeness was not significantly associated with stunting (p=0.380; OR=1.36, 95% CI: 0.68–2.71). Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding offers strong protection against stunting and is vital for achieving SDG 2 and SDG 3. While immunization was not directly linked to stunting in this study, it remains essential for preventing infections that may indirectly impair growth. Strengthening breastfeeding promotion and community health programs are crucial for reducing stunting in rural Indonesia.
