Pendekatan REBT (Rasional Emotive Behavior Theraphy) untuk Meningkatkan Motivasi Belajar Siswa

The Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) approach is the view that all people have a tendency to think irrationally and this can be achieved through social learning. Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) aims to eliminate emotional disorders that have a negative impact on a person, because they can cause emotions such as anxiety, hatred, fear, and anger, etc. Motivation is one of the factors that influences student performance. The motivation that students get encourages them to study harder, be persistent and have full concentration in the learning process. The type of research used in this research is library research. The aim of this research is to determine the REBT (rational emotive behavior therapy) approach to increasing student learning motivation. The data collection technique used in this literature study is documentation technique, namely searching for data about a thing or variable in the form of notes, books, essays, or articles. The data analysis technique used is content analysis technique. Content analysis research involves the process of selecting, comparing, combining, and rearranging different meanings until relevant meanings are found. From the research results it can be concluded that the "REBT (rational emotional behavior therapy) approach can be used to increase student learning motivation, thereby increasing learning motivation in students with low learning motivation".

PENERAPAN KONSELING COGNITIVE BEHAVIOR THERAPY UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KONSENTRASI BELAJAR SISWA SMA N 1 GEBOG KUDUS

The aim of this research is to determine the factors that cause students' low learning concentration and the application of individual counseling with a Cognitive Behavior Therapy approach to increase students' learning concentration. The type of research used is a qualitative case study. Data collection techniques use observation, interviews, home visits and documentation. The research results prove that the application of cognitive behavior therapy counseling can help increase students' learning concentration at AY and AMI. Before the counseling was carried out, AY and AMI students experienced low learning concentration because they were unable to divide their time between studying, playing and resting. Therefore, AY and AMI counselees have low learning concentration. After individual counseling for three meetings, students AY and AMI Sudha were able to concentrate during the learning process.

Can Socratic dialogue techniques be used to increase meaning of life for students with disabilities?

This research was motivated by the low meaningfulness of life among people with disabilities, especially those with autism spectrum disorder with visual impairment (ASDVI). The meaning of life greatly influences a person's quality of life, enthusiasm for living life, productivity, creativity, and happiness in living their own life. So, this research aims to determine the efficacy of individual counseling services using the cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) approach and Socratic dialogue techniques to increase the meaning of life in ASDVI students. The type of research that the researcher applied was a single-subject research experiment with the A-B-A pattern. The subject of this research was an ASDVI student at SLBN 001 Tanjungpinang. The instruments used in this research were observation and interviews. The data analysis method used is the explanatory sequential design. The results of the research showed that there was an increase in the meaning of life in ASDVI students, so the Socratic dialogue technique was considered effective in increasing the meaning of life in someone with disabilities, especially ASDVI specifications. The increasing meaningfulness of life for ASDVI students shows the difference between negative and positive thought patterns. This can be seen in changes in thinking patterns and behavior as well as independence, which shows that ASDVI students have the enthusiasm to live their lives and are independent, and can be active in seeking the views of the general public to achieve the ASDVI students' version of meaning itself and achieve a new, more positive perspective.

Social anxiety disorder in Black American adolescents: Cultural considerations in conceptualization, assessment, and treatment.

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is characterized by significant distress and avoidance surrounding social and performance situations, with marked interpersonal and academic impairment. This review article highlights cultural considerations relevant to the conceptualization, identification, and treatment of SAD in Black youth. Research evaluating the utility of evidence-based measures to assess SAD suggests they are culturally relevant; however, gaps in knowledge regarding the psychometric properties of even the most widely used instruments are evident. In regard to intervention, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approaches hold promise, yet there is a lack of research on the use of CBT with Black adolescents. Recommendations to incorporate cultural factors into CBT are provided, and future work investigating culturally adapted interventions is needed. Finally, given significant disparities in access and utilization of mental health services among Black youth, strategies to increase treatment engagement, such as school-based services, are important to consider.

Management of irritable bowel syndrome: a narrative review.

As our understanding of the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has advanced, so too has the therapeutic landscape, offering a myriad of approaches to alleviate symptoms and enhance the well-being of patients. This review paper is dedicated to a comprehensive exploration of the diverse therapeutic modalities available for managing IBS. By delving into the complexities of IBS therapeutics, our aim is to contribute to the enhancement of patient care and the overall quality of life for patients grappling with this complex condition. This review utilized information from PubMed/MEDLINE using the key search term "irritable bowel syndrome" as well as the 2020 American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) and 2022 American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) society guidelines on IBS. The search was restricted to articles in the English language only and included peer-reviewed observational studies and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in adult patients from April 22, 2020 to October 16, 2023. This review will start with an overview of the current guidelines for pharmacologic therapies for IBS as recommended by the ACG and the AGA, with an emphasis on clinical trials published after the most recent guidelines. It will then delve into the literature on dietary modifications, probiotics, fecal microbiota transplant, behavioral therapy, and complementary and alternative medicine approaches to IBS. It is evident that the management of IBS has transcended a one-size-fits-all approach. As the field of IBS management continues to evolve, it is imperative for physicians to stay informed and receptive to the array of therapeutic options available, ultimately providing patients with the most effective and personalized care.

Perception of Behaviour Management Techniques for Paediatric Patients among Dental Officers

Introduction: Dental anxiety can be effectively managed by applying pharmacological and non-pharmacological behavioural management therapy approaches (BMT). This study investigated the dental officers’ perception of behaviour management techniques practiced in managing paediatric dental patients in primary dental clinics. Materials and methods: A quantitative study using structured online English questionnaires among dental officers serving in primary dental care services under the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH Malaysia) in Sabah. The acceptability of applied behaviour management techniques was measured using Likert scale from 0 to 10. Data was analysed using SPSS version 29 and descriptive data was presented. Results: Seventy-four dental officers involved in this study (Male= 14, Female= 60). Positive verbal reinforcement, tell-show-do, and offering an exact explanation of what the findings indicate are the most widely accepted behaviour management strategies (BMT), with mean scores of 9.5, 9.1, and 8.7, respectively. The least accepted BMT among dental officers in Sabah are immobilisation with a papoose board, preventing the child from speaking during treatment, and hand over mouth (HOM), with mean scores of 4.6, 3.6, and 3.2, respectively. Conclusion: The study concludes that the most recognized BMT is positive reinforcement technique regardless of age, experience and gender. This finding provides information in the development of modules for continuous professional development training among dental officers in the Ministry of Health Malaysia.

Gamification in Critical Care Education and Practice.

To explore gamification as an alternative approach to healthcare education and its potential applications to critical care. English language manuscripts addressing: 1) gamification theory and application in healthcare and critical care and 2) implementation science focused on the knowledge-to-practice gap were identified in Medline and PubMed databases (inception to 2023). Studies delineating gamification underpinnings, application in education or procedural mentoring, utilization for healthcare or critical care education and practice, and analyses of benefits or pitfalls in comparison to other educational or behavioral modification approaches. Data indicated the key gamification tenets and the venues within which they were used to enhance knowledge, support continuing medical education, teach procedural skills, enhance decision-making, or modify behavior. Gamification engages learners in a visual and cognitive fashion using competitive approaches to enhance acquiring new knowledge or skills. While gamification may be used in a variety of settings, specific design elements may relate to the learning environment or learner styles. Additionally, solo and group gamification approaches demonstrate success and leverage adult learning theory elements in a low-stress and low-risk setting. The potential for gamification-driven behavioral modification to close the knowledge-to-practice gap and enable guideline and protocol compliance remains underutilized. Gamification offers the potential to substantially enhance how critical care professionals acquire and then implement new knowledge in a fashion that is more engaging and rewarding than traditional approaches. Accordingly, educational undertakings from courses to offerings at medical professional meetings may benefit from being gamified.

Perceptions of organizational value and unethical/deviant behaviors among lecturers in Archeology and Religion and Cultural Studies: An intervention study.

Understanding an organization's ethical standards assists employees in abiding by stipulated rules and regulations and reduces the prevalent rate of inappropriate behaviors. Unfortunately, some workers do not know and as a result, they become dysfunctional, affecting their professional identities. Given this, scholars have called for psychoeducational strategies that coach workers to improve their perceptions. With this in mind, we investigated the impact of psychoeducational coaching on workplace ethical perceptions and deviant behaviors among lecturers in Archeology and Religion and Cultural Studies. A group randomized control design was adopted, and a sample of lecturers was assigned to intervention and control groups using a simple allocation sequence method. Three dependent measures were used to assess the participants' irrational beliefs, work values, and deviant behaviors before the intervention, after, and 2 months later as a follow-up test. Data collected were cued into SPSS version 28. A multivariate analysis was performed to test postulated hypotheses at .05 probability level. The results showed that rational-emotive behavior occupational coaching has a significant impact on reducing unethical work values and work-deviant behaviors among lecturers in Archeology and Religion and Cultural Studies. The finding of this study justified the effectiveness of rational-emotive behavior therapy (REBT) approaches in treating irrational beliefs that occasioned work-deviant behaviors among the employees. It is concluded in this study that rational-emotive behavior occupational coaching is beneficial and effective in decreasing unethical work values and work-deviant behaviors among lecturers in Archeology and Religion and Cultural Studies. Therefore, REBT practitioners should liaise with lecturers in Archeology and Religion and Cultural Studies to advance the practice of REBT in workplaces.

Virtual psychoeducation for improvement of pain catastrophizing in pediatric presurgical patients and caregivers: a proof-of-concept study.

Pain catastrophizing (PC) is the tendency to magnify the threat value of pain sensations and is associated with greater postsurgical pain intensity, functional disability, and pain chronicity. Higher parental PC predicts higher chronic postsurgical pain in youth. Treating PC in caregivers and youth prior to surgery may improve recovery and surgical outcomes. We developed and evaluated a psychoeducational workshop addressing PC for presurgical youth and their parents/caregivers. We hypothesized that parent/caregiver and youth PC scores would decrease over time. We also explored preintervention levels of youth anxiety and depression as moderators of outcome. Youth (n = 43) and caregivers (n = 41) attended a virtual, group-based single-session intervention (SSI). Single-session intervention content addressed pain neuroscience, PC, and adaptive coping strategies for managing pain and PC drawn from cognitive-behavioural, acceptance and commitment, and dialectical behaviour therapy approaches. Participants completed questionnaires assessing PC at preintervention, postintervention, and two weeks postsurgery. Youth mood and anxiety were assessed at preintervention. Caregiver PC scores decreased from pre- to postintervention (P = 0.006), and this was maintained at postsurgery (P = 0.002). Youth PC scores decreased from preintervention to postsurgery, but only for those with higher preintervention anxiety (P = 0.01). Our results provide proof-of-concept support for a virtual SSI targeting caregivers and youth PC during the perioperative period. The present findings highlight the possible need to screen presurgical candidates for symptoms of anxiety. Replication with larger and more diverse samples, and a more robust design are warranted.

Meningkatkan Kemampuan Regulasi Emosi melalui Pendekatan Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) secara Daring

Adverse childhood experiences, insecure attachment relationships with parents, the formation of negative self-perceptions, and maladaptive emotional regulation can form strong risk factors for difficulties in emotional regulation and the diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Several interventions can be used, including the Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) approach. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of online DBT intervention in adolescents who experience difficulties in emotion regulation and already have a tendency to depressive symptoms. The participant is a teenage girl aged 17 years and 7 months. The research design is a single-case experimental design. The intervention consisted of 1 pre-intervention session, 8 DBT intervention sessions, 1 post-intervention session, and 1 follow-up session. Quantitative analysis was carried out by comparing scores from the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Subjective Units of Distress (SUD) given before and after the intervention. The results showed that quantitatively there was a decrease in scores of difficulties in emotion regulation, depressive symptoms, and distress faced by the participant compared to before intervention. Qualitatively, emotion regulation skills change in a more positive and adaptive direction.

Pendekatan Brief DBT untuk Menurunkan Gejala Kecemasan dan Kesulitan Regulasi Emosi pada Remaja Perempuan

Changes in physical, cognitive, emotional, and social interactions in female adolescents are associated with the onset of anxiety disorder. Furthermore, during middle adolescence, adolescents tend to use maladaptive emotion regulation strategies. Difficulties in emotion regulation are associated with the emergence and the increased intensities of anxiety. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is an evidence-based intervention to increase emotion regulation skill and to decrease anxiety symptoms. This study is a training with a brief Dialectical Behavioral Therapy approach aimed to reduce anxiety symptoms in 6 female adolescents (grade 10). Results showed that the training significantly reduced the level of anxiety symptoms. Meanwhile, although there were declines in the pre and post-test scores of emotion dysregulation, the scores differences were not significant. Training duration and invalidating environment were identified as factors contributing to the insignificant reduction of the emotion dysregulation level.

PENGARUH PIJAT BAYI TERHADAP KONSTIPASI PADA BAYI USIA 1 - 12 BULAN DI PMB A TAHUN 2023

Constipation is a symptom of difficult bowel movements which is characterized by the consistency of hard stools, large size and decreased frequency of bowel movements. Constipation can cause social and psychological problems. Treatment for constipation is to get used to defecating regularly by means of behavior modification, fiber diet, laxatives, and psychological approaches. Massage provides benefits for constipation by stimulating peristalsis and reducing colonic transit time so that it can increase the frequency of bowel movements. The research design uses a pre-experiment, using a static group comparison research design or a comparison with static groups. Results were analyzed using Univariate and Bivariate using the Chy Square test. Based on the results of my research, it can be seen that out of 15 cases of babies who underwent massage therapy, 2 babies (13.3%) had difficult bowel movements, while 13 babies (86.7%) had smooth bowel movements. According to the researcher's assumption, there is no gap between the results of this study and the theory. Baby massage therapy greatly affects the smooth process of defecation. By doing baby massage techniques can facilitate bowel movements.

Effect of Pre-Hospitalization Fall History on Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior After the Implementation of a Behavioral Change Approach in Patients with Minor Ischemic Stroke: A Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial.

We aimed to determine whether a history of falls before admission affected physical activity levels and sedentary behavior negatively after implementing a behavior modification approach in patients with minor ischemic stroke. This study constituted a secondary analysis of an intervention trial. In the intervention study, patients with minor ischemic stroke were randomly assigned to two groups: intervention and control groups. The intervention group was encouraged to reduce sedentary behavior during hospitalization and after discharge, while the control group was encouraged to increase physical activity levels solely during hospitalization. The study included 52 patients who completed the intervention trial. The exposure factor examined was a history of falls. Upon admission, patients were queried about any falls experienced in the year preceding admission and subsequently classified into fall and non-fall groups based on their responses. The primary outcome of interest focused on changes in physical activity levels (step count, light-intensity physical activity, and moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity) and sedentary behavior. Measurements were obtained at two time points: before the intervention, during hospitalization (baseline), and 3months after discharge (post-intervention). Only a significantly lower change in the number of steps taken in the fall group than in the non-fall group was found. Those with a history of falls showed a lesser change in the number of steps taken before and after implementing a behavior change approach compared with those without a history of falls. Those with a history of falls may have engaged in activities other than walking.

Can psychological interventions prevent or reduce risk for perinatal anxiety disorders? A systematic review and meta-analysis

ObjectiveLittle is known about the extent to which interventions can prevent perinatal anxiety disorders. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine whether interventions can decrease the onset and symptoms of perinatal anxiety among individuals without an anxiety disorder diagnosis. MethodWe conducted a comprehensive literature search across five databases related to key concepts: (1) anxiety disorders/anxiety symptom severity (2) perinatal (3) interventions (4) prevention. We included studies that examined a perinatal population without an anxiety disorder diagnosis, included a comparator group, and assessed perinatal anxiety. We included interventions focused on perinatal anxiety as well as interventions to prevent perinatal depression or influence related outcomes (e.g., physical activity). ResultsThirty-six studies were included. No study assessing the incidence of perinatal anxiety disorder (n = 4) found a significant effect of an intervention. Among studies assessing anxiety symptom severity and included in the quantitative analysis (n = 30), a meta-analysis suggested a small standardized mean difference of −0.31 (95% CI [−0.46, −0.16], p < .001) for anxiety at post intervention, favoring the intervention group. Both mindfulness (n = 6), and cognitive behavioral therapy approaches (n = 10) were effective. ConclusionsInterventions developed for perinatal anxiety were more effective than interventions to prevent perinatal depression. Psychological interventions show promise for reducing perinatal anxiety symptom severity, though interventions specifically targeting anxiety are needed.
