- Authors: Indah Lutfiya, Mursyidul Ibad, Afif Kurniawan, Nuke Amalia, Diyah Herowati
  Pages: 110 - 121
  Abstract: The percentage of Unintended Pregnancy or Kehamilan Tidak Diinginkan (KTD) in Indonesia is still 17.5%. East Java contributed for 14.6% of cases of KTD during 2019. The increase in fertility rates and maternal mortality cases in Indonesia is partly due to KTD. This study will analyze the determinants of the incident of KTD in women of childbearing age or Wanita Usia Subur (WUS) in East Java. This study is a non-reactional study with a Cross-sectional design using data on the Program Performance and Accountability Survey (PPAS) for Family Planning and Family Development Program (KKBPK) 2019. Sample in this study were 2,650 married WUS with ages 15-49 years. Secondary data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression tests. Some factors that determine the incidence of unintended pregnancy include mother's age (p=0.000), age of first marriage or Usia Kawin Pertama (UKP) (p=0.004), number of living children (p=0.000), welfare level (p=0.004), residence (p=0.043), knowledge of contraception (p=0.022), history of contraceptive use (p=0.001), access of information (p=0.000), and family planning decisions (p=0.003). Meanwhile mother's education (p=0.998), mother's occupation (p=0.362), and insurance ownership (p=0,750) did not affect the case of KTD in East Java. New policies and innovations that are more targeted are needed so that prospective acceptors receive contraceptive services easily and affordably so as to reduce the number of KTD. Optimizing the role of the Family Planning Field Officer or Petugas Lapangan Keluarga Berencana (PLKB) to increase the rate of the use of modern contraceptives in East Java.

  Abstract: This research aims to analyze the relationship between the characteristics of teenagers and family functions as well as the understanding of narcotics, psychotropics, and addictive substances on the behavior of teenagers consuming drugs in East Java as a response variable with a binary scale. The data source obtained through secondary data from the Performance Survey and Accountability Program 2019 with the observation unit teenagers aged 10-24 years. The sample used is 4,649. The analytical method used is descriptive statistics, the Chi-square method, and Odds Ratio (OR). The percentage of adolescent consuming drugs is 4.1% descriptively. The relationship analysis shows that the variables significantly related to young people's behavior in consuming drugs are gender, place of residence, level of education, age group, religious values, and psychological consequences. From the OR figures concluded that young males are 3.2 times more at risk of consuming drugs than young females. From the aspect of family function, it can be inferred that the percentage of young substance abusers from families who apply religious values is greater than those who do not. The findings of this research show that the risk of young people from families who practice religious functions becoming substance abusers are 1.61 times more compared to families who do not practice it. The understanding of drugs is not always related to teenagers' behavior in consuming drugs, because those who understand the psychological consequences of substance abuse are also 1.64 times more at risk of using drugs compared to teenagers who do not understand.

THE USAGE OF STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING (SEM) METHOD IN HYPERTENSION
OCCURRING AT ACHMAD MOCHTAR HOSPITAL BUKITTINGGI

  Pages: 134 - 144
  Abstract: Hypertension or high blood pressure has many factors, the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method is able to analyze the multivariable and find out the direct and indirect effects in a model of the relationship among variables. The purpose of this research to determine the use of structural equation modeling methods (SEM) to assess the factors affecting hypertension in Achmad Mochtar Bukittinggi Hospital. This research is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design study. The research sample is 151 respondents at Poli Interne Ahmad Mochtar Bukittinggi Hospital. Analysis was with the structural equation modeling (SEM) method with a CI 95%. The results showed that of the 5 latent variables only 3 had a direct effect on hypertension, namely blood fat (T-value = 5.806), lifestyle (T-value = 13.505) and disease history (T-value = 2.518). )> 1.96. Meanwhile, demographics (0.530) and obesity (0.163) do not directly affect hypertension but can indirectly affect them. It can be concluded that: Lifestyle is a dominant factor because it can directly and indirectly affect hypertension through obesity, blood fats and disease history. It is expected that the research will be able to determine the problem solving plan of hypertension, because it will be known the model of the factors that influence the incidence of hypertension so that planning can be directed at variables that have a more significant influence" either directly or indirectly.

ANALYSIS

  Pages: 145 - 155
  Abstract: Unintended pregnancy impacts hugely on maternal and child health. This study aimed to examine the influence of women’s autonomy on unintended pregnancies including unwanted and mistimed pregnancies. Using the Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) 2017, this study analyzed 12,624 currently married women who had birth within five years preceding the survey. Women’s autonomy was constructed from several variables related to women’s decision on obtaining health care, visiting family, and spending large household purchase. The result of logistic regression analysis showed that women’s autonomy affected significantly on unintended pregnancy after controlling other variables. However, it implied a negative correlation in which autonomous women were 1.3 more likely to experience unintended pregnancy than their counterparts. Both parity and birth interval showed the biggest influences on unintended pregnancy; the odds ratios were 2.7 and 3.1 respectively. Women who married at age 21 years and above, lived in rural areas and decided the number of children to have with husbands tended to have a lower risk facing an unintended pregnancy. Improving IEC and counseling about family planning and reproductive health is expected to increase couples’ knowledge. Therefore, the decisions on the number of children and contraceptive use can be made jointly and unintended pregnancy will be prevented.
