The suicide rate in Java is increasingly worrying. Furthermore, there is still a limited exploration of suicide in Javanese culture. This qualitative research intended to explore the perception of suicide in the Javanese with Arthur Kleinman’s explanatory model framework. We interviewed 21 Javanese, of which 28.5% had a history of attempted suicide. Grounded theory analysis found that the Javanese have various terms for suicide based on how suicide is conducted, emotional nuances, and influences of taboo. Suicide is believed to be influenced by suffering, loss of hope, alienation, mental frailty, and low religiosity. It is important to consider cultural characteristics in suicide prevention campaigns and suicide management programs. This article encourages cultural sensitivity for clinicians and health authorities to accommodate the Javanese belief in suicide prevention programs as well as the delivery of effective interventions.

This study investigates the potential of flavonoid compounds from Sandoricum koetjape leaf extracts as tyrosinase inhibitors, using in vitro and in silico methodologies. Tyrosinase is crucial for melanin synthesis, and its excessive activity leads to hyperpigmentation disorders. The extracts underwent maceration, partitioning, and concentration, followed by tyrosinase inhibition assays and LC-MS/MS analysis. The ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest inhibitory activity, revealing key flavonoids like Kaempferol-3-O-β-Dglucopyranoside and Quercimeritrin. Molecular docking and dynamic simulations provided insights into their binding mechanisms. Kaempferol-3-Oβ-D-glucopyranoside exhibited a binding affinity of -8.4 kcal/mol, while Quercimeritrin had -7.7 kcal/mol. PreADME profiles indicated Quercimeritrin’s higher solubility, better skin permeability, and lower environmental toxicity. This comprehensive evaluation underscores the viability of S. koetjape as a natural source for tyrosinase inhibitors, highlighting the need for further optimization and in vivo studies to confirm efficacy and safety for dermatological applications.

In Indonesia, the number of inmates increases almost every year. On the other hand, the Indonesian government is often faced with a limited number of existing prison facilities, including mental health services. Many cases of mental disorders in inmates are not treated, and their conditions even get worse. This program aimed to develop a mental health service program for inmates with individual counseling and supportive group therapy combined with the dhikr therapy in one of the prisons in Indonesia. Data were collected using questionnaires, interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD). Questionnaires and interviews were conducted with the inmates, while the FGDs were conducted with psychologists. Data were analyzed descriptively for questionnaires and thematic analysis for interviews and FGDs. Based on the data collected, as many as 34 inmates used individual counseling services with a total of 50 visits. The data shows that the problems consulted in the form of family problems (59%), problems with partners (20%), prison environment problems (6%), fear of being released (6%), self-esteem problems (6%), and problems about a job (3%). The results of data analysis showed that the inmates feel that psychological interventions in prison were beneficial. Both inmates who had attended individual counseling and supportive group therapy combined with the dhikr therapy felt its benefits in overcoming the psychological problems. This study suggests that mental health services in prisons need to be an area of concern, considering the urgent needs in prisons.

Along with the frequent social conflicts in Indonesia, the multicultural reality of this country is becoming increasingly urgent to be reconstructed so that it can become an "integrating force" for the future of this nation, especially through the education sector. In that context, Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Nahdlatul Ulama (MINU) Bangil Pasuruan, East Java, is a "lantern" for Indonesia's future multiculturalism that has implemented multicultural education management well. It involves various religious and ethnic cultural organizations, such as NU, Muhammadiyah, and others. Also, there are several ethnic groups like Javanese, Sundanese, Madurese, and Chinese. This qualitative research with a phenomenological approach-case study attempts to analyze the implementation of multicultural education management to develop conflict resolution learning at MINU Bangil Pasuruan. This research shows that the application of multicultural education management is running well with the main learning models based on visiting culture class learning. Meanwhile, the impact of multicultural education management includes 1) the life and interpersonal relationships of the entire academic community and the environment of educational institutions becoming more harmonious and inclusive, despite the ethnic plurality in the community; and 2) the learning process becomes more enjoyable and effective because it is supported by the growing sense of belonging and love between teachers and students.

This study discusses the occurrence of possession disorders in Makassar. The method used is a qualitative grounded theory method with data collection using semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions. The participants were three women, each of whom had experienced at least two possession disorders. The criteria for possession disorder refer to PPDGJ III. The results indicated that parenting, the role of the father figure, and the relationship with the mother, as well as the transmission of abusive religious beliefs were more likely the causes of possession disorders in the Makassar/Indonesian context. The abuse experienced is more related to parenting patterns than physical or sexual abuse as appears in the Western literature. Future research that deepens parenting themes and religious beliefs is important to understand the occurrence of other psychopathologies besides possession disorders.

This study aims to answer the following research question: what are the problems and prospects of the development of Islamic psychology studies in Southeast Asia? This study used descriptive qualitative research and employs data triangulation during data collection. Documentation study, in-depth interviews and focus group discussions were used to obtain the data. Data were analysed using patterns of data collection, data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing. It can be concluded that Islamic psychology presents many problems and prospects for those who are concerned about the development of Islamic science. The finding strengthens the perspective that there are three problems of developmental studies of Islamic psychology in Southeast Asia: (1) the discussion on the issue still focuses on theoretical integration and philosophical levels rather than on applicative ones; (2) methodological problems; and (3) polarisation of the capacity of Muslim psychologists. Apart from the problems, the development of Islamic psychology studies has good prospects. This indication can be seen from the following transformations: (1) from the formulation phase towards the research phase, (2) from comparative study patterns towards developing concepts of psychology based on Islam and (3) from a normative-cognitive approach towards the substantive-Sufistic approach. Contribution: Through this study, it is hoped that strategic attempts will be made by Muslim psychologists to collaborate and develop networks on designing more targeted studies in solving the various problems that arise around the integration of psychology and Islam at the ontological, epistemological or axiological levels.

Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a disease designated as a global pandemic by the WHO that can manifest clinically as neurological disorders that can occur in the acute phase or after the acute phase (long COVID-19), such as headache, myalgia, anosmia, and cognitive impairment. These neurological disorders as symptoms of long COVID-19 are presumably caused by hypercoagulable conditions characterized by an increase in D-dimer level. This study aims to determine the correlation of long COVID-19 neurological symptoms with hypercoagulable conditions and the role of D-dimer as a biomarker of long COVID-19 neurological symptoms. Methods This was a cross-sectional study involving 31 patients with long COVID-19 symptoms. Admitted long COVID-19 cases with recorded D-dimer levels and definitive outcomes were included consecutively. Long COVID-19 neurological symptoms were collected. D-dimer level was measured using immunofluorescence assay and reported in fibrinogen equivalent units (ìg/mL). The correlation between D-dimer levels and neurological clinical manifestations was assessed by using ordinal regression analysis. The p-value of

Psychological assistance is strongly needed in relation to the recovery of the psychological state of children who are in conflict with the law. Semarang City has developed a school-based restorative justice program as a response to such needs. This research aims to explore the factors which could potentially obstruct the psychological recovery process of these children during the implementation of the program. The study adopts a qualitative design through multiple case studies, with the participation of three children and those close to them. The case study data analysis was conducted based on Yin's (2015) techniques, consisting of pattern matching, explanation building, logic models, and cross-case synthesis. The results show that negative support from peers, drug abuse, negative role models, emotional detachment from close friends and relatives, and negative stigma were the factors obstructing the recovery process of the participants. These findings could be essential for practitioners’ design of psychological interventions which are more relevant to the children’s recovery needs.

The development of Augmented Reality (AR) technology until now continues to increase. Utilization of AR has been used in various aspects of life, including aspects of education, is no exception for automotive engineering education. In recent years, a variety of ideas and the latest innovations about automotive by utilizing AR technology began to boom, especially in the area of car design aimed at car production companies. At the car production stage, human resources skilled in understanding the design and specifications of car features are required. The seeds of educated human resources start from vocational students in automotive engineering expertise programs. This study aims to develop and implement an application called AUTOC-AR that functions to help and facilitate students in learning automotive engineering skills in vocational schools and supporting safety in the workplace. The research methodology consisted of a literature review and excavation of problems and needs, solution recommendations, application development, testing, results and discussion, conclusions and future work. The Extreme Programming (XP) model was used as a development method. Marker-based tracking was used as a detection approach. As many as 25 students as end-users were involved to use AUTOC-AR. The result is that all features in the AUTOC-AR application function properly based on the expected specifications. Non-functional testing has been carried out by adopting a user experience approach with a final average value of 4.83 with a percentage of 96.6%.

Social justice warrior (SJW) is a pejorative term for individuals who fight for equality, environment, and gender. Because their progressive morals radically differ from the predominant values, the so-called social justice warriors spark controversies. This study aimed to describe netizens’ opinions about SJW and describe the dynamics of conflict or support in more detail. Text mining and opinion coding were used to elicit research data. The opinions that we gathered were analyzed in 2 stages: sentiment analysis and content analysis. The results of sentiment analysis are negative (445), neutral (86), and positive (90). Content analysis of the negative opinions showed the characteristics of sarcastic, rude, critical, and contemptuous (mocking/disrespecting). The style of positive sentiments (comments congruent with the phenomena) is divided into supportive, empathic, and motivational opinions. Negative opinions are more dominant because of netizens’ self-acceptance, the effects of informal social control in cyberspace, SJW’s presumed social non-compliance, and doubts of objectivity. Positive opinions can be explained by criticism of social contract theory, namely the demand to be more supportive of minority groups, sensitivity, and empathy (the ability to feel other groups' social conditions and environmental conditions).

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease that was later declared a pandemic. During a pandemic, excessive workloads cause an increase in physical symptoms, such as tension-type headaches, in medical personnel. Tension-type headache (TTH) is associated with decreased sleep quality which will lead to excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and fatigue syndrome. This study aims to determine the relationship between TTH and sleep quality, EDS, and fatigue syndrome in medical personnel during the pandemic. This study is a cross-sectional study conducted on health workers at Sebelas Maret University Hospital, Surakarta, Indonesia in March–August 2020. The relationship between TTH and three other variables was analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) of headache associated with the covariate. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare sleep quality, EDS, and fatigue syndrome in the TTH, non-TTH headache, and control groups. There were 120 respondents (mean age 30.93±12.48) in this study. The Spearman correlation test found a weak positive correlation between TTH and the three dependent variables. OR sleep quality, EDS, and fatigue syndrome with the incidence of TTH respectively 2.33 (95% CI=1.18–5.11, p

BACKGROUND Meningiomas are the most common primary extra-axial non-glial intracranial tumors. The severe grade of meningioma, according to WHO, has the highest recurrence rate accompanied by high morbidity and mortality rates. Therefore, it is imperative to perform pre-operative assessments so the clinician can give prompt treatment to gain a better prognosis. It is a novel alternative way of predicting meningioma’s malignancy by calculating the tumor’s apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value. The objective of the study was to determine the value of ADC for differentiating benign and malignant meningiomas. METHODS This cross-sectional study involved 32 subjects with clinically diagnosed or histologically verified meningioma (21 benign and 11 malignant). They underwent a head-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination and biopsy. We calculated the ADC value by creating regions of interest (ROIs) on the solid part of the tumor, guided by contrast and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence. We analyzed the ADC value with independent t-test and Bland-Altman graphs, calculated the average difference, CI 95%, limit of agreement between observers, and ROC. RESULTS Mean ADC of malignant meningiomas (0.877 ± 0.167 x 10-3 mm2/s) was significantly lower than that of benign meningiomas (0.990 ± 0.105 x 10-3 mm2/s) (p
