Introduction

Students’ subjective well-being is an important indicator of mental health and academic functioning in higher education. Measuring subjective well-being requires valid and reliable instruments to ensure that the results obtained are accurate and trustworthy. This study aims to examine the validity and reliability of the College Student Subjective Well-Being Questionnaire (CSSWQ) among students of the Faculty of Da’wah and Communication at UIN Alauddin Makassar.

Methods

This study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive design. The research population consisted of all active students of the Faculty of Da’wah and Communication at UIN Alauddin Makassar. The sample included 36 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through an online survey. Data analysis included validity testing using item–total correlation and reliability testing using Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient with the assistance of SPSS software.

Results

The results showed that all 16 items of the CSSWQ instrument were valid, as each item had a calculated correlation coefficient (r-value) greater than the critical r-value (0.3202). The reliability test yielded a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.854, indicating high reliability. These findings demonstrate that the CSSWQ instrument has good internal consistency.

Conclusion

The CSSWQ instrument is proven to be valid and reliable for measuring the subjective well-being of students at the Faculty of Da’wah and Communication, UIN Alauddin Makassar.

Abstract

Introduction: Anxiety is an emotional response commonly experienced by students, especially when facing practical examinations such as the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). This examination is structured and requires direct clinical skills performance, which can trigger anxiety and affect students’ performance. Methods: This study used a descriptive design with a survey approach. The sample consisted of 49 third-semester students selected using total sampling technique. Data were collected using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-T) questionnaire and analyzed using univariate analysis. Results: The results showed that the majority of respondents were 19 years old and female. All respondents had prior experience with OSCE and most received family support. The anxiety level of students was predominantly in the very severe category (46.9%), followed by severe (38.8%), moderate (12.2%), and a small proportion in the mild category (2.0%). Conclusion: Most undergraduate nursing students at Mulawarman University experience very high levels of anxiety when facing the OSCE. This indicates that OSCE remains a significant source of stress, and appropriate interventions are needed to help students manage their anxiety effectively.

Introduction: Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an aberrant development of retinal blood vessels in premature infants and is the primary cause of blindness globally. The primary risk factor for ROP is oxygen concentration. Methods:This research was a quantitative survey utilising a cross-sectional methodology, involving 60 participants from Wonosari Regional General Hospital between January and December 2023, and employing a probability sample technique by simple random sampling. The utilised data were secondary data derived from patient medical records. The research tool comprised a questionnaire. The data analysis encompassed univariate and bivariate analyses with the Chi-Square statistical test.Results:The study's findings indicated that the oxygen fraction among preterm infants at Wonosari Regional General Hospital in 2023 included 90 respondents (71%); both FiO2 > 40% and FiO2 < 40% led to Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) in 26 respondents. In 2023, the prevalence of Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) at Wonosari Regional General Hospital was 30 newborns (50%). A Chi-Square statistical test indicated a significant correlation between oxygen fraction and ROP incidence, yielding a p-value of 0.004 (p < 0.05).Conclusion The occurrence of retinopathy of prematurity at Wonosari Regional General Hospital in 2023 is correlated with the oxygen fraction.

fitria Supiansyah — 2026-07-30

Introduction: Breast cancer is a type of malignant disease that poses a threat to all segments of society and is the leading cause of death among women. Breast cancer can be treated through medical intervention via surgical procedures, which may lead to nursing issues such as acute pain. This pain problem can be addressed through pharmacological therapy and supported by non-pharmacological approaches such as guided imagery therapy. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of guided imagery therapy in managing acute pain in post-operative breast cancer patients through a case study approach. Method: Descriptive observational case study design (in-depth case). The subject of this study was a 50-year-old female patient diagnosed with left breast cancer. Guided imagery therapy was administered for 10–15 minutes over three consecutive days, 2 hours after a 30 mg injection of ketorolac. Measurements were taken before and after the intervention, including pain scale, blood pressure, and pulse rate. Results: There was a reduction in pain intensity from severe to mild, accompanied by a decrease in blood pressure and pulse rate following the intervention. Conclusion: The combination of analgesic administration and Guided Imagery therapy is effective in reducing the intensity of acute pain in patients following surgery for left breast cancer. Therefore, this intervention is safe and suitable for use as a nursing intervention in postoperative pain management.
