Student's understanding of chemistry basic concepts (stoichiometry) has an important role to determine their learning outcomes on higher-level concepts (included thermochemistry). Generally students find difficulties in thermochemistry because they still have difficulties stoichiometry. The purposes of this study were to find out the difficulties in varous aspects experienced by students in stoichiometry, the influence of student's understanding of stoichiometry on their learning outcomes of thermochemistry, the effects of remidial teaching using problem solving method in stoichiometry and in thermochemistry on the students understanding of thermochemistry, and the effectiveness of both remidial methods on student's learning outcomes of thermochemistry. This research used descriptive and quasi experimental designs. The subjects were students of year XI of SMA Negeri 2 Pamekasan of the academic year 2014/2015. Data collecting procedure was done by a test method and tests of hypothesis were done by t-test procedures (α of 0.05). The results showed that (1) some concepts of stoichiometry which were considered as difficult by students were equation of reaction, mole concept, and the concept of calculation in equation of reaction; (2) there was a relationship between student's understanding of stoichiometry and student's understanding of thermochemistry; and (3) remedial teaching in stoichiometry was more effective than remedial teaching in thermochemistry to develop student's understanding of thermochemistry.

Abstract. This study aimed to reduce depression and increase immunity through training of reading of the reflective intuitive Al-Fatihah. Researchers used an experimental method with pretest-posttest control group design. Each experimental group and control group consisted of 10 students of Islamic Boarding School. To measure stress degree, Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS) was used. Immunity was measured with microscopic slide method using hematology analyzer. Quantitative analysis was done through a mixed design anova statistical test. The results showed that the training could reduce depression (F=15.34, p<0.05) and increase immunity (F=25.6, p<0.05). This study defines that Reading of Reflective Intuitive Al Fatihah can change a subject's perception toward any problem of life. The subjects of this research could see what was going on in their lives through the anchor perspective. The experimental subjects who had secured their anchors onto Allah could significantly decrease their depression and improve their immunity. Such state of calmness cannot be separated from Quran reading. Keywords: Al Quran, imun system, stressAbstrak.

Analisis kuantitatif menggunakan mixed design anova. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa membaca Al Fatihah reflektif intuitif dapat menurunkan depresi (F=15.34, p<0.05) dan meningkatkan imunitas (F=25.6, p<0.05). Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa membaca Al Fatihah reflektif intuitif dapat mengubah persepsi subjek terhadap permasalahan dalam hidupnya. Subjek mulai melihat apa yang sedang terjadi pada diri mereka dengan menggunakan perspektif anchor Allah. Subjek eksperimen yang berhasil memegang teguh anchor Allah, mengalami penurunan depresi dan peningkatan imunitas secara signifikan. Perubahan tersebut tidak dapat dipisahkan dari rasa tenang sesudah membaca Al Quran.

Indonesia needs mental health service methods that are able to reach a wider community with challenging geographical conditions and a large population. The need is even more urgent with the current situation of physical restrictions in the current pandemic. The increasing number of mental health cases and the limited availability of professional resources that are insufficient to meet the needs, causing mental health disparities. The increasing need for psychological assistance in particular situations is now a challenge for service providers. This paper aims to obtain a scientific basis from several evidencebased studies that show the effectiveness of services using telemental health (TMH) or better known as telepsychology in several community groups and countries. This article is a literature review from various sources through the Google scholar search engine, Google, and PubMed with the keywords telemental health, telepsychology, and telecounseling. The rapid development of information technology in the digital age has become a promising opportunity. With the optimal integration of mental health services and technology, the results obtained can be one of the alternative solutions in reaching the wider community and minimizing existing gaps. The use of two-way long-distance telecommunications media, utilizing telephone and video conferencing with due regard to procedures and professional ethics telepsychology implementation in Indonesia needs to consider several things, including procedures and professional service ethics; infrastructure availability; community readiness and culture; and also, the ability of psychologists as providers of this service. Abstrak Indonesia membutuhkan metode layanan kesehatan mental yang mampu menjangkau masyarakat luas dengan kondisi geografis yang menantang dan populasi penduduk yang besar. Kebutuhan tersebut menjadi semakin mendesak dengan adanya situasi pembatasan fisik di masa pandemi yang dihadapi saat ini. Meningkatnya jumlah kasus kesehatan mental dan keterbatasan ketersediaan sumber daya profesional yang ada tidak cukup memenuhi kebutuhan pelayanan, sehingga menimbulkan kesenjangan kesehatan mental. Meningkatnya kebutuhan pendampingan psikologis pada situasi khusus saat ini menjadi tantangan bagi penyedia layanan. Makalah ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh dasar ilmiah dari beberapa studi berbasis bukti yang menunjukkan efektivitas layanan menggunakan telemental health (TMH) atau lebih dikenal telepsikologi di beberapa kelompok masyarakat dan negara. Artikel ini merupakan reviu literatur dari berbagai sumber, melalui mesin pencari Google Scholar, Google, dan Pubmed dengan kata kunci telemental health, telepsychology, dan telecounseling. Perkembangan teknologi informasi yang pesat di era digital ini menjadi peluang yang menjanjikan. Hasil yang didapatkan, dengan adanya integrasi pelayanan kesehatan mental dan teknologi secara optimal, dapat menjadi salah satu solusi alternatif dalam menjangkau masyarakat yang lebih luas dan meminimalisir kesenjangan yang ada. Penggunaan media telekomunikasi jarak jauh dua arah, memanfaatkan telepon, dan konferensi video dengan memperhatikan prosedur serta etika professional. Implementasi telepsikologi di Indonesia perlu mempertimbangkan beberapa hal, meliputi prosedur dan etika layanan professional; ketersediaan infrastruktur; kesiapan dan budaya masyarakat; serta juga kemampuan psikolog sebagai penyedia layanan ini.
