Adaptation and evaluation of psychometric properties of HELAM using the Rasch model in the Indonesian context

<span lang="EN-US">Many schools have shifted their learning mode from face to face to fully online in order to reduce virus transmission and avoid learning loss, resulting in accelerated use of the learning management system (LMS). The implementation of online learning over the last 3 years in Indonesia needs to be evaluated. However, the available evaluation scales are in different cultural contexts. Therefore, the existing scales should be adapted. This study aims to adapt and report the psychometric properties of the Hexagonal E-Learning Assessment Model (HELAM) scale in the context of Indonesian culture. The adaptation followed the procedure suggested by Beaton. To achieve a measurement accuracy of up to 0.5 logit at a 99% confidence level, 326 teachers taking the Teacher Professional Education (TPE) program in position program were involved. The psychometric properties of the HELAM scale were analyzed using the Rasch model to improve accuracy and observe the quality of the HELAM scale. The results of the analysis show that the HELAM scale has good psychometric properties in the context of Indonesian culture at the instrument and item level. The elements of reliability and validity have met the good criteria. Thus, the adapted HELAM scale can be applied to the Indonesian context.</span>

Analysis of Pre-Olympic Middle School Mathematics Test Instruments Based on Item Response Theory

Junior high school of mathematics Olympiad is one of the routine activities every year in Indonesia. Analysis of the items on the Mathematical Olympiad test instrument has been carried out by several researchers using the concept of classical test theory. The theory has many weaknesses when compared to the concept Item Response theory (IRT). The purpose of this article is to describe the analysis of pre-Olympiad mathematics test instrument for junior high school students in Pacitan East Java based on the IRT. This analysis was carried out using a quantitative descriptive method. IRT-based item analysis was performed using R software with the package irtawsi. The results of the analysis with the package show that the instruments used fit to 2PL model. From the 15 items used, there were two items that did not fit, namely items 4 and 9. Furthermore, from the 13 test items that were fit, there were 3 items that did not meet the quality of the discriminant parameter used. These three items are 1, 6 and 13 items, these three items must be dropped because they can provide biased information when used to estimate students' math olympiad abilities. Based on this information it can be concluded that there are 10 test items that have quality that meets the qualification parameters of difficulty and discriminant with a standard error of 0.25.

Comparison of activity test of ethanol extract and palm root infusion (Arenga pinnata) as an aphrodisiac

The palm tree (Arenga pinnata) contains secondary metabolites such as saponins, phenols, triterpenoids, alkaloids, and flavonoids that can be used as medicine, particularly as an aphrodisiac. Aphrodisiacs are natural substances, medications, or herbal supplements that have the potential to increase sexual arousal. The use of herbal aphrodisiac drugs has been increasing year by year in Indonesia. This study aims to determine the aphrodisiac activity of palm root water extract (Arenga pinnata) in test animals (Web Wiester mice). The preparation of the extract begins with the processing of palm roots, which are then made into an infusion of palm root water (Arenga pinnata). The method of making the palm extract uses infusion and maceration techniques. The aphrodisiac potential test was conducted in vivo using 32 Web Wiester mice, which were divided into 5 groups; the dosage was determined by dividing the mice into five groups (positive control, negative control, 0.5 ml infusion, 1 ml infusion, and extract). The characterization of aphrodisiac properties in the extract included testing the libido of mice (Mus musculus). The results showed that the extract test group with a dose of 250 Mg/KgBW had the highest mating retention among the other test groups.

Risk Factors for Dental Caries in Elementary School Children Aged 6-12 in Indonesia (Systematic Literatur Review)

Background: The highest prevalence of dental caries was in the group of children aged 5-9 years (92.6%), and in the age group 3-4 years was 81.1%. Unhealthy teeth and mouth can affect a child's development because the condition of the milk teeth will determine the growth of the child's permanent teeth. Caries are influenced by brushing teeth, how to brush teeth, consumption of cariogenic foods, knowledge, and possibly many other factors that can affect caries. Purpose: to review the collected literature on risk factors for dental caries in children aged 6-12 years in Indonesia. Methods: This study used the literature review method which began with searching research results in 3 databases, namely PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar with predetermined inclusion criteria. Results: The articles that have been obtained in this literature show that there are many variables in the process of dental caries in elementary school children in Indonesia. These variables are divided into several discussion groups, namely individual characteristics, parental characteristics, consumption patterns, dental and oral hygiene, socioeconomic status, and dental and oral health interventions. Conclusion: there are many variables selected to be risk factors for dental caries, but not all variables are proven to be risk factors for dental caries in elementary school children. This is because other factors make the hypothesis rejected.

Flood Risk Spatial Modeling Based on Geographical Information Systems and Remote Sensing in the Pemangkat Regensi

Flood is a disaster that occurs every year in Indonesia with various risks.

Association between Food Consumption Patterns and Handgrip Strength among Adults Aged ≥55 Years in Indonesia: A Cross-Sectional Analysis from the IFLS-5

We aimed to examine the association of food consumption patterns, measured by dietary diversity score (DDS) or food consumption score (FCS), with handgrip strength (HGS) among adults aged ≥55 years in Indonesia. This is a cross-sectional study involving 4351 middle-aged and older adults from the Indonesian Family Life Survey Fifth Wave (IFLS-5), collected in 2014–2015. A weighted linear regression model was used to examine the association of DDS or FCS with HGS in crude and adjusted models. In the adjusted models and compared to those with low DDS or poor FCS, those with medium/high DDS and borderline/acceptable FCS were associated with a higher mean of HGS. Good food consumption patterns, as reflected by high DDS or acceptable FCS, were shown to be significantly associated with stronger HGS among adults aged 55 years or above. More targeted nutritional interventions to promote good food consumption patterns may help improve HGS among middle-aged and older adults in Indonesia.

Correlation Between Pre-Chemotherapy AMH Level, Menstrual Status, and Prediction of Ovarian Function Recovery after FAC Chemotherapy AMH in Breast Cancer Patients

Around 52.6% of women aged <50 years in Indonesia are diagnosed with breast cancer. One of the chemotherapy regimens with a toxicity effect on reproductive function, especially ovarian follicles, is 5-fluorouracil-doxorubicin-cyclophosphamide (FAC). Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is a biomarker that can be used to assess the ovarian function. This study aimed to determine the correlation between pre-chemotherapy AMH serum level, menstrual status, and whether the AMH serum level can predict ovarian function recovery in pre-menopausal women receiving FAC chemotherapy. This was an analytical observational study with a prospective cohort design performed in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia, during 2021-2022. Data were analyzed using correlation analysis. Subjects were breast cancer patients aged ≤45 years, still of reproductive age, with no prior history of chemotherapy, and were undergoing the FAC chemotherapy. All 32 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study. There was a significant difference (p 0.0001) between pre- and post-6 cycles of chemotherapy AMH levels. Post-6 cycles of chemotherapy showed lower AMH levels. There was a high correlation (p 0.0034) between pre-chemotherapy AMH level and menstrual status six months after six cycles of chemotherapy. The correlation test between post-chemotherapy AMH level and menstrual status showed a non-significant result. Thus, there is a high statistical correlation between pre-chemotherapy anti-Mullerian hormone levels in pre-menopausal women with breast cancer and the menstrual status after FAC chemotherapy which demonstrates that the AMH level could also be used to predict ovarian function recovery.

Factors associated with overweight/obesity of children aged 6–12 years in Indonesia

BackgroundGlobally, the prevalence of childhood obesity has increased considerably, including in Indonesia. Obesity results from multifactorial interactions at the personal, familial, and environmental levels. However, little is known about the factors associated with overweight/obesity among children in Indonesia. This study is intended to identify personal, familial, and environmental factors associated with overweight/obesity in children aged 6–12 years in Indonesia.MethodsStudy design was a secondary data analysis using the Indonesia Family Life Survey in 2014/2015, focusing on 6,090 children aged 6–12 years. The questions covered the child’s body mass index and potential personal, familial, and environmental factors. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the personal, familial, and environmental factors.ResultsThe mean age of participants was 8.9 years (SD = 2.0); 51.0% were boys; 9.4% were overweight; and 8.1% were obese. Overweight and obesity were associated with age [AOR 1.09 (95% CI 1.04–1.14)], having an overweight [AOR 1.93 (95% CI 1.58–2.36)] or obese [AOR 3.36 (95% CI 2.43–4.61)] father compared with a normal father, being of Chinese [AOR 9.51 (95% CI 1.43–79.43)] or Javanese [AOR 1.60 (95% CI 1.16–2.24)] ethnicity compared with Sundanese ethnicity, and residing in an urban area [AOR 1.36 (95% CI 1.10–1.70)]. A lower risk of child overweight/obesity was associated with the father’s perception [AOR 0.56 (95% CI 0.38–0.80)] and mother’s perception [AOR 0.66 (95% CI 0.43–0.98)] of the child’s food consumption as being less than adequate compared with adequate.ConclusionsRisk factors in children for overweight/obesity were older age, having an overweight/obese father, membership of certain ethnic groups, and urban residence. The main protective factor was parents’ perception that a child’s food consumption was less than adequate. Health promotion programs focused on these factors could help control or prevent childhood obesity in Indonesia.

PERUBAHAN JUMLAH SEL PURKINJE SEREBELUM TIKUS WISTAR JANTAN SETELAH PEMAPARAN ROKOK ELEKTRIK

Design, taste, marketing and perceptions of safety from e-cigarettes have increased the appeal of e-cigarettes to young people around the world so that their use continues to increase. This is one of the threats in efforts to reduce the prevalence of smokers aged 10-18 years in Indonesia. Electric cigarettes cause oxidative stress while the brain is vulnerable to oxidative stress because it requires large amounts of oxygen. This experimental study with a posttest only control design aimed to determine changes in histological structure and number of male Wistar rat cerebellum Purkinje cells after exposure to electric cigarettes. This study used a sample of 32 male wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) which were divided into 4 treatment groups: group A (without treatment), group B (put in an exposure cage), group C (given exposure to electric cigarettes 15 times in a cage exposure), and group D (given exposure to e-cigarettes 30 times in the exposure cage). Exposure to e-cigarettes was given for 50 days, then sacrificed and samples were made with Hematoxylin Eosyn (HE) staining. The results showed that the number of cerebellar purkinje cells in male Wistar rats exposed to electric cigarettes decreased significantly and there was a significant difference in the number of cells between 15 and 30 exposures and karyolysis occurred in the cells. E-cigarettes cause core damage and decrease in the number of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum of male wistar rats.

Adjustment Speed of the Capital Structure in the Telecommunication Industry in Indonesia Year 2013-2018

In 2013, telecommunications companies in Indonesia relied significantly on debt loans as a source of funding, with an average capital structure of -11.51%. The highest increase was observed in 2015, reaching an impressive 99.20%. Given this fluctuation, it becomes imperative to conduct research focusing on the adjustment speed of the capital structure in telecommunications companies during the period from 2013 to 2018. The research findings indicate varying rates of adjustment in capital structure, particularly in terms of Debt Equity Ratio (DER). The fastest adjustment was seen in XL Axiata at -19.14% and Indosat at -1.62%, while Telkom Indonesia exhibited a slower adjustment rate at 36.72%, and Smartfren Telecom had the slowest adjustment at 51.96%. Similarly, when considering the Debt Asset Ratio (DAR), XL Axiata displayed the swiftest adjustment at -17.63%, followed by Telkom Indonesia at -9.05%, and Indosat at -3.11%. In contrast, Smartfren Telecom had the most gradual adjustment, with a notable value of 71.70%. These findings underscore the dynamic nature of capital structure in the Indonesian telecommunications sector during the specified period. The varying speeds of adjustment in debt ratios reflect the strategic financial decisions made by these companies in response to market conditions and internal factors. Further analysis is essential to comprehend the factors influencing these diverse adjustment rates and their implications for the industry's financial stability.

INCREASING AWARENESS OF DEPRESSION IN ADOLESCENTS AND CHILDREN THROUGH ONLINE CAMPAIGN ACTIVITIES

Cases of depression in children and adolescents show high rates in Indonesia. According to Riskesdas (2018) adolescents (15–24 years) in Indonesia have a percentage of depression around 6.2% and according to the Yogyakarta branch of Ikatan Dokter Anak Indonesia or Indonesian pediatrician association revealed that 3% of school-aged children and 6% of adolescents experience major depressive disorder. This sizable number comes from the assumption of the public that depression does not occur in children and adolescents. Therefore, the provision of information that increases public knowledge about depression in children and adolescents must be carried out so that both early and curative interventions can be carried out so that in the long run, the prevalence of depression in children and adolescents is reduced. This effort uses two methods 1) disseminating information through Instagram content @semicolonial.id, and 2) digital campaigns via Instagram of each campaign participant. The increase in knowledge of campaign participants (N = 21, Range age = 14–50 years, Mage = 23.5) was measured using pre-test and post-test. The data processing used a descriptive statistical data analysis through SPSS version 25. The results shows an increase in participants' knowledge before (Range = 40–100, Mean = 71.9) and after (Range = 60–110, Mean = 91.9) the campaign. In conclusion, this campaign was successful in increasing the knowledge of campaign participants about depression in children and adolescents.

Application of Modal Analysis of Earthquake Force and Natural Frequency Tanjung Baru Bridge

The dynamic response of a structural system can be described by modal analysis. In the present study, the modal analysis that adopts an Undamped Degree of Freedom (Undamped-DOF) System is implemented to describe the modal descriptors such as the natural frequency and mode shape of a bridge. Furthermore, the earthquake load acting on the bridge is also evaluated and hence the possibility of a resonance associated with this load is investigated. For this objective, the earthquake data collected during the past ten years in Indonesia is explored. This study considers the Tanjung Baru Bridge, a prestressed concrete bridge situated on the Medan-Kualanamu-Tebing Tinggi highway, as the case study. The modal analysis and the evaluation of the earthquake load confirm that the possibility of resonance for the Tanjung Baru Bridge is extremely low. The study also proves that this bridge has a sufficient capacity to withstand earthquake loads.

Morphology and life cycle of Spodoptera frugiperda(J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) with soybean leaf (Glycine max[L.] Merr.) in the laboratory

Soybean (Glycine max[L.] Merr. ) is an important vegetable source of vegetable protein for the whole world. Wilis is one of the superior varieties in great demand among farmers. However, soybean production in recent years in Indonesia has declined. One of the causes is the presence of parasites which can cause losses both in quantity and quality. The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda(J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a serious pest that can attack 353 host plants from 76 plant families and one of them is the Fabaceae family. This research was conducted at the laboratory and experimental farm of Hasanuddin University Faculty of Agriculture and took place from August to December 2020. The larvae were obtained from Sidenreng Rappang regency, Watang Pulu district. Insect was reared in the laboratory to produce eggs which are used to observe the life cycle of S. frugiperda with soybean leaves as food. Biological observations were made, including the duration of each stadium, and the shape and size of the egg until it becomes an adults. The results of this study showed that the larvae of S. frugiperda consisted of six instars. The mean duration of eggs to hatching was 1.8 days, the duration of the larval was 18.78 days, the duration of the pre-pupa was 1.61 days, the duration of the pupal was 10 days and the longevityis s 9.28 days for males adults and 13.73 days for females adults.
