Published: December 2021

The increasing global competitiveness demands the development and improvement of self-quality, particularly the quality of self-performance. Dysarthria is one of the speech disorders that often provides significant obstacles to the sufferer's performance. For this reason, this study was intended as an initial study to investigate differences in the acoustic features of both contoid and vocoid phonemes produced by dysarthria and non-dysarthria as well as provide therapy suggestions to minimize the disorder. The scope of the study was limited to the case of /r/ alveolar trill dysarthria. This study was designed using a descriptive qualitative approach with field methods. In collecting data, the observation (simak) method was used to collect data in the form of contoid and vocoid phonemes produced by 4 dysarthria samples and 4 non-dysarthria samples. The collected data then went through the analysis with the extralingual and intralingual equivalent methods. The results showed that the inability to produce phoneme /r/ alveolar trill could be detected by observing the differences in the acoustic features of the alveolar and vocoid phonemes produced by both dysarthria and non-dysarthria samples.

Published: December 2021

Giriş: Çalışmada; bir tıp fakültesinde eğitim almakta olan dönem I öğrencileri ve aynı fakültede eğitim alan asistan hekimlerin dinleme türlerinin belirlenmesi, bu iki grubun dinleme türleri arasında fark olup olmadığının araştırılması ve dinleme türlerinin dinlemeyi etkileyebilecek değişkenlere göre değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Bu tanımlayıcı analitik çalışma 2017-2018 eğitim öğretim yılında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada iki ayrı örneklem kullanılmıştır. Örneklemleri 194 öğrenci ve 200 asistan oluşturmuştur. Yüz yüze görüşmelerde, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen anket formu ve Dinleme Türleri Ölçeği (DTÖ) uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Dönem I öğrencilerinin birincil dinleme tercihi “ilişkisel dinleme” iken, asistanların birincil dinleme tercihinin “etkileşimsel dinleme” olduğu saptanmıştır. Her iki örneklem grubunun en az tercih ettiği dinleme türü ise “çözümleyici dinleme”dir. Dönem I öğrencilerinin “ilişkisel dinleme” tercihi asistan hekimlerin “ilişkisel dinleme” tercihine göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek, asistanların “etkileşimsel dinleme” tercihi ise dönem I öğrencilerinin “etkileşimsel dinleme” tercihine göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulunmuştur (sırasıyla; p=0,001, p=0,022). Asistanların kullandıkları dinleme türleri uzmanlık eğitimi aldıkları branşlarına göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık göstermemiştir. Cinsiyet, medeni durum ve algılanan maddi durum değişkenine göre; tıp fakültesi dönem I öğrencilerine ait dinleme türlerinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık göstermediği görülmüştür (p>0,05). Kadın asistan hekimlerin “ilişkisel dinleme” tercihi erkek asistan hekimlere göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek saptanmıştır (p=0,006). Evli asistan hekimlerin “etkileşimsel dinleme” tercihinin bekar olan asistan hekimlerden anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu görülmüştür (p=0,019). Subjektif dinleme puanına göre 5’in üzerinde puan alan asistanların, “ilişkisel”, “eleştirel” ve “çözümleyici” dinleme tercihleri istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulunmuştur (sırasıyla; p=0,005, p=0,049, p=0,007).Sonuç: Hasta-hekim ilişkisi için gereklilik olan dinleme becerisinin geliştirilebilmesi için hekimin dinleme türü tercihlerinin belirlenmesi gerekir.

Authors: OZCAN Fatih , ÖZKÜRKÇÜGİL Cüneyd , ETİLER Nilay
Published: December 2021

Objective: The study aimed to determine the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) in a representative sample of women living in Turkey at the national level and to investigate predisposing factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted nationwide on women aged 25-64. Women were selected from Family Physicians' lists using random sampling. For data collection, a valid Turkish questionnaire; the international incontinence questionnaire - short form (ICIQ-SF) was used. An ICIQ-SF questionnaire is a form of inquiry that assesses the presence and severity of urinary incontinence and predisposing factors were Results: A total of 1,179 participants took part. The median age was 43±10.8 years. “Do you always leak urine?" the prevalence of UI was 43.9% in the answer to the question. Furthermore, the UI prevalence was 47.4% (559/1179) according to the ICIQ-SF survey. The prevalence of UI did not differ between regions, but the difference between increased vaginal births (≥3), advanced age, and low educational status was significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: The high rate of UI among women in Turkey indicates an important women's health problem that can be prevented by some studies. We believe it is important that this is taken into account in national preventive women's health programs. We recommend that the ICIQ-SF query form be included in national preventive women's health programs by taking routine practice as a screening tool to detect urinary incontinence in adult women.

Mangrove ecotourism development with an institutional approach aims to carry out management by uniting relevant institutions especially the community, government, and other stakeholders. Institutional capacity plays an important role in the development of potential-based areas. Therefore, this study aims to determine institutional capacity both organizational and individual capacity in the mangrove ecotourism development in the Lembar village of Lombok Barat Regency. The research method was carried out through a qualitative research approach with the determination of informants based on purposive sampling techniques. The results showed that the capacity of mangrove ecosystem management for the mangrove ecotourism development in the Lembar village area of West Lombok Regency at the level of community, individual resource managers and institutional was categorized as low. The dominant institutional capacity in the mangrove ecotourism development were the Marine and Fisheries Department of West Lombok Regency. This shows that good synergy has not yet been formed between institutions and communities so that the mangrove ecotourism development is unsustainable and temporal. Therefore, a joint commitment is needed in increasing the strengthening of institutional capacity sustainably so that there is good synergy between the government, the government and the private sector, the government and the community, and between other stakeholders.

This study aims to determine the suitability and carrying capacity of coastal areas in the Clungup Mangrove Conservation (CMC) Malang Regency, East Java for coastal tourism activities such as beach recreation, mangrove tourism, snorkeling, and fishing. This research was conducted from August to October 2020 through a survey with an observative approach to obtain primary data, while secondary data was obtained from area managers as supporting data. The carrying capacity of the area for beach tourism activities is 3,234 people/day, mangrove tourism is 6,675 people/day, diving tours are 684 people/day, and snorkeling is 59 people/day. As for fishing activities, this area can accommodate 553 people/day, Canoeing 20,025 people/day, and camping 120 people/day. The number of tourists in the CMC area is still below its carrying capacity. The management of the number of tourists that are currently controlled is considered appropriate and follows the carrying capacity of the environment. However, the potential for the area to be developed closer to its carrying capacity is still possible. Increased tourist visits will provide economic benefits for the community and business actors who support tourism around the CMC area, causing an economic multiplier effect.

Gopla is a coastal community adaptation phenomenon that occurs in the Prigi Beach Area which was pioneered by Mr. Paniyo (Gopla). This phenomenon is a change in deviant behavior where people use forest land that does not belong to them for personal gain. This adaptation is triggered by the increase in the necessities of life caused by the economic crisis and the reduction in basic income from the fisheries and agriculture sectors, which are his main livelihoods. This study has the objectives of 1) knowing the adaptation of coastal communities within the scope of community interaction with forest ecosystems, 2) formulating adaptation patterns that occur in these coastal communities. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. From this research, it was found that the adaptation carried out in the community turned out to include adaptation to the ecosystem, socio-culture, and economic system which are interrelated.

Intensive aquaculture of vaname shrimp (L. vannamei), has been known to be a favorite for aquaculture commodities in Indonesia at the last 2 decades. The purpose of this study was to determine status of financial feasibility and business sensitivity rate in intensive shrimp culture activities. The research method used in this study is a quantitative method. The data analysis used to determine of financial feasibility and business sensitivity in the form of NPV analysis, Net B/C, R/C, IRR, and payback period. Also, an analysis of assumptions about rising feed prices and decreasing production revenues for the level of business sensitivity. The results showed that the shrimp culture business was categorized as feasible and profitable with NPV value of IDR 63,417,262,006, Net B/C 29.11, R/C 2.14, IRR 42.46%, and PP 1.4 years. Sensitivity analysis shows that the business is not so sensitive to the increase of feed prices and decreased revenue, but is very sensitive if both conditions change simultaneously, but are still in the financially feasible category. So, it can be concluded based on NPV, Net B/C, R/C, IRR, and payback period indicator analysis that intensive white shrimp farming is very feasible and profitable to use with a low level of business sensitivity due to feed price fluctuations changes and uncertain operational business revenues.

Published: December 2021

Eudaminae Mabille, 1877 (Hesperiidae), recognized as subfamily recently, is rich in Brazil. It is along the Neotropical Region where a significant part of the diversity is found, however, information that involves the biology of species is poorly yet. This paper gathers new bioecological data of an Aguna species from the municipality of Maceió (Alagoas, Brazil), close to the Environmental Protection Area of “Catolé” and “Fernão Velho”, a remnant of Atlantic Forest. Leaves containing eggs were collected in a peri-urban area (9° 33’ 26” S, 35° 46’ 36” W) and taken to laboratory to observe post-embryonic development. Larvae were also collected from another host plant in an intra-urban area (9° 39’ 40” S, 35° 41’ 58” W). The specimens were identified as Aguna megacles megacles (Mabille, 1888) and the two Fabaceae as Bauhinia pentandra (Bong.) D. Dietr. and Bauhinia monandra Kurz. from exsiccates deposited at the Herbarium. Rearing from the eggs collected on B. pentandra exposes a post-embryonic development that lasted 53.4 days for six larval instars individuals, and 46 days for the five larval instars specimen. The larvae built a shelter since the first instar and in laboratory conditions they preferred pupate on the base of the cage. This is the first report of development features for A. m. megacles, including six and five larval instars, as well as a new locality for the State of Alagoas, and two more host plants of Bauhinia suggesting specialist behavior.

Published: December 2021

The knowledge and awareness on contact lens care can enhance the positive attitude of the wearers and reduce related complications. This study aimed to investigate the perceptions of contact lens use and care of university students with different backgrounds. A questionnaire regarding the perception and practice of contact lens use was online distributed. The perception of contact lens use as an optical device between spectacle and contact lens was statistically significant (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the perception and awareness of two groups (p>0.05). Regardless of educational field background, all contact lens wearers have the same behavioural assessment of contact lens awareness.
Keywords: behaviour, contact lens usage, knowledge, awareness.

Authors: Zaharrudin Nurliana Zahira , Zakaria Azzarina
Published: December 2021

This study explores the extent of media facilitates Malaysian Social Welfare Non-Governmental Organizations (SWNGOs) to acquire funding. Malaysian SWNGOs rely on external funding to support their operation, but this external funding is uncertain and limited. The number of registered Malaysian NGOs has increased recently. For this reason, acquiring funding has become more challenging for Malaysian SWNGOs. Through semi-structured interviews with 6 Malaysian SWNGOs, the study found that television is a dominant media platform to acquire funding. Also, an official website, Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp were prominent platforms for most Malaysian SWNGO to acquire funding.

Daily work activities are among the sources of stress to humans. Typically, each individual will spend 1/3 of their day at work. It is no exaggeration to say that 1/3 affects the other 2/3. Appropriate assessments should be conducted to assess what employment factors and the work environment contribute to this. This study explains the development process and the use of the Environmental & Occupational Probability Scale screening form on mental health status or known as SKiPP. This assessment can be used to measure both of these factors on the mental health status of employees based on the DASS21 score.

Socio-demographic Factors and Eating Behaviours among Nurses in a Teaching Hospital
Authors: Mohamad Norfidah , Abdul Mulud Zamzaliza , Ruzli Ira Nadhira , Mohd Zainun Zaman Nur Ain Farhah
Published: December 2021

Nurses are known as shift workers. Shift work can disrupt regular meal habits resulting in abnormal eating behaviour. Hence, this study aims to determine the relationship between socio-demographic factors and eating behaviour. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 135 nurses using a self-administered questionnaire. This study found that the shift duties factor was significantly associated with emotional and external eating behaviour. This might be caused by how nurses cope with the burden of shift works. Health promotion strategies from both individuals and organisations should be intensified for these nurses to enhance healthy eating habits and promote healthy lifestyles.

Published: December 2021

Anxiety and depression are common among cancer patients and impact health-related quality of life. MBSR has long been used to treat psychological illnesses in various therapeutic settings worldwide. However, there is no solid evidence of MBSR effects among cancer patients in Malaysia. This cross-sectional study intervened in the five weeks of MBSR on cancer patients in Penang. Results found that the MBSR Intervention group had lower anxiety and depression compared to the waitlist. However, the HRQOL result was inconclusive. These findings support the use of the MBSR program for Anxiety and Depression among cancer patients. However, HRQOL needs further investigation.
