Healthcare professionals are prone to experiencing stress and burnout due to their responsibility to care for one’s life and mistakes in the care delivery might lead to dire consequences for the patient. Occupational stress in the healthcare service could reduce the job performance of healthcare workers. This study was therefore conducted to determine the effect of occupational stress on the performance of healthcare workers in the University of Jember Medical Center. This study employed a cross-sectional design. The research sample was 28 healthcare workers at the University of Jember Medical Center. The results of the Pearson test showed a significance value of p = 0.725, indicating no significant correlation between occupational stress and job performance of health workers at the University of Jember Medical Center. Occupational stress might be experienced by healthcare workers at University of Jember Medical Center because University of Jember Medical Center as the first level of healthcare facilities acts as a gatekeeper with significant workload and functions. However, this occupational stress didn’t affect the work performance of the healthcare workers at University of Jember Medical Center due to their excellent stress management. Future studies might benefit from utilizing other more objective stress-related measurements and recruiting larger sample size. Keywords : Occupational stress, Job Performance, Healthcare Worker

Long-standing sexism in the Balinese community, based on its traditional paternalistic culture, may become the main factor to underlie children's vulnerability for abuse. School teachers, considering their regularity to interact with children in schools, might play a significant role in early detection and intervention of such cases. We conducted a cross-sectional observational study by sampling Junior High School teachers in Denpasar as an initial effort to analyze the correlations between sexism and attitude toward reporting of child sexual abuse in Bali. Subjects were requested to complete the questionnaires Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI) and a Teachers’ Reporting Attitude Scale for Child Sexual Abuse (TRAS – CSA). The two scales were then analyzed for correlations. The score of ASI Hostile sexism (HS) domain was inversely correlated with total TRAS-CSA, while a positive correlation was found between total TRAS-CSA score and total ASI Benevolent Sexism (BS) domain score for Paternalism subdomain. This research also pointed to the tendency of the Balinese sample to conduct the practice of benevolent sexism instead of hostile sexism. In correlation with teachers’ reporting for sexual abuse, cautions should be taken for possible inadequate reporting that might potentially lead to the chronicity of the abuse.

Rotasi klinik di bagian Psikiatri dapat memberikan tantangan berbeda bagi dokter muda (DM) yang nantinya dapat memengaruhi proses dan hasil pembelajaran serta pandangan mereka terhadap psikiatri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi pengalaman pembelajaran selama stase psikiatri pada dokter muda. Analisis dilakukan terhadap naskah refleksi diri yang dituliskan dokter muda Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Jember (FK UNEJ) yang telah menyelesaikan stase psikiatri di RSD Dr. Soebandi Jember pada bulan Juli 2019-Juni 2021. Naskah dianalisis secara tematik untuk mendapatkan beberapa tema. Didapatkan 102 naskah refleksi diri yang ditulis oleh 27 DM laki-laki dan 74 perempuan. DM memiliki pandangan yang berbeda-beda terkait anggapan awal terhadap psikiatri/rotasi klinik di bagian psikiatri serta hal-hal yang dipelajari selama pelaksanaan stase baik secara personal maupun . Meskipun secara umum DM menganggap pelaksanaan stase sudah berlangsung baik, mereka berharap agar pembelajaran bisa dilakukan pada latar yang lebih variatif dan dilakukan secara lebih aplikatif. Peneliti selanjutnya dapat memfokuskan pembahasan pada topik tertentu dan melakukan kajian kualitatif secara lebih mendalam atau menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan jumlah sampel lebih besar untuk meningkatkan kekuatan dan generalizability penelitian.
