Background: The visual analogue scale (VAS) instrument is proven to be reliable in measuring anxiety. Experts argue, however, that measuring the aspect of psychosocial trauma in a different language has limitations, especially among hospitalised children under the age of six. As a result, the study sought to revise and validate a trustworthy, child-friendly VAS for use in Indonesia. Methods: A preliminary survey was conducted among 81 respondents that met the inclusion criteria. An expert committee reviewed and revised the VAS-Anxiety-Indonesia for sensitivity and content validity. Thus, the Centre of Indonesia Language was charged with forward and backward translation from English to Indonesian and vice versa. In this study, data were collected in two phases. The first was the preliminary data collection from 21 respondents for face and content validity. The second phase recruited 60 respondents with retests and confirmations of modified items and components of VAS-A-Indonesia. Statistical analysis used a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.05. The second test performed the content validity index, item correlation analysis, internal consistency for reliability testing, and Exploratory Factor Analysis. Results: The instrument consists of 12 items. With three factors to measure anxiety, they accounted for 65.2% of the overall variance. The content validity index was 0.825 (Aiken's V), item correlations ranged from 0.354 to 0.686, and Cronbach's alpha was 0.837. Conclusion: The Indonesian version of the VAS-A was a valid and reliable instrument for assessing the anxiety of preschoolers admitted to hospitals.

Diarrhea is one of the causes of death in toddlers, and one of the factors that causes diarrhea is MP-ASI. Based on the most significant proportion of diarrhea sufferers at the Baros Health Center in the last three months of October, November, and December 2021, 87 infants aged 0-12 months and 29 infants aged 12-24 months, respectively, and 31 infants aged 25-60 months. This research aims to determine the relationship between complementary feeding and the incidence of diarrhea in infants aged 3-12 months in the Baros Public Health Center, Sukabumi City, Indonesia. This research used a cross-sectional population, and the total sampling was 48 infants aged 3-12 months. The analysis of data used Chi-Square. The inappropriate provision of complementary feeding to infants aged 3-12 months, 26 respondents (54.2%), and the appropriate ones were 22 respondents (45.8 %), the incidence of diarrhea in infants aged 3-12 months who had diarrhea as many as 28 respondents (58.6%) and who did not have diarrhea as many as 20 respondents (41.7%). The result shows a relationship between giving complementary feeding to infants aged 3-12 months and the incidence of diarrhea with a value of 0.00 (<0.05). There is a relationship between the provision of complementary foods for breast milk (MP-ASI) and the incidence of diarrhea in infants aged 3-12 months. Giving MP-ASI is one of the essential needs, but what needs to be considered by the mother is the appropriate age of the baby. Providing information related to MP-ASI knowledge to mothers is the key to preventing diarrhea in infants.

The inability to handle lectures efficiently makes students vulnerable to academic burnout. To reduce the incidence of academic burnout in students, it is very necessary to strengthen internal and external factors, based on the theory that factors such as self-esteem and student engagement can reduce academic burnout in students. This study aims to determine the effect of self-esteem and school engagement on academic burnout of nursing students. This type of research is correlational with the cross-sectional approach. A sample of 196 undergraduate nursing students of STIKes Sukabumi with a sampling technique using stratified random sampling. The data collection tool uses the Rosenberg self-esteem scale (RSES), school engagement measure (SEM) and Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS) questionnaires. Statistical analysis uses multiple linear regression. The results showed that there was a significant negative influence of self-esteem on academic burnout (p-value of 0.000), school engagement on academic burnout (p-value 0.000), and there was a simultaneous influence of self-esteem and school engagement on academic burnout of students (p-value 0.000). Engagement has an influence on students academic burnout both partially and simultaneously. The educational institution provides counseling to students to increase self-esteem and school engagement to avoid academic burnout.

Smoking is one of the most significant lifestyle factors contributing to the global disease burden. Individuals who use proactive coping will improve their environment and life rather than reacting to the past and planning for the future by constructing and pooling available resources to deal with stressors. However, instruments measured proactive coping toward smoking cessation are limited. This study aimed to develop and test the validity and reliability of proactive coping toward smoking cessation in adolescents. The data collection process was divided into two phases, namely instrument development and psychometric testing. Exploratory factor analysis and reliability testing were conducted on 300 adolescents. Proactive coping smoking cessation (PCSC) is the development of proactive coping inventory (PCI). Loading factor coefficient on support seeking 0.54-0.82, reflective coping 0.585-0.823, strategic planning 0.580-0.736, proactive coping 0.439-0.648, avoidance 0.586-0.826 and preventive coping 0.507-0.707. Cronbach's alpha for PCSC ranged from 0.970 to 0.972. PCSC shows the acceptable internal and external consistency and the results of the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) verify that the six-factor model correctly represents the original PCI factor structure. Future studies are required to test the instrument in different setting and culture.

Stunting is a major public health problem in most developing countries. Although worldwide the prevalence is decreasing slowly, the number of stunted children is still increasing. Stunting can occur in the first thousand days of birth and many factors can influence it, including knowledge, nutritional intake and parenting. The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors for stunting in infants aged 24-59 months. This study used a cross-sectional approach. The research sample was 75 respondents, recruited through purposive random sampling techniques, and data were collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. Bivariate tests using simple linear regression and multivariate tests using multiple linear regression were carried out. The results of the study showed there was a significant effect of mother’s knowledge on stunting (p < 0.001), of parenting on stunting (p < 0.001) and of nutritional intake on stunting (p = 0.004).
