Cancer is the leading cause of death in Indonesia. Generally, cancer therapy use chemotherapy, radiation, surgery or combination of those. Various side effects caused by cancer therapy make the use of additional drugs. This leads to an increase in total cost incurred to cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to describe the treatment of cancer therapy’s side effects as well as the average cost of side effects treatment, and its percentage in the total cost of cancer patients in Rumah Sakit Margono Soekarjo. This research was a descriptive study with retrospective data by total sampling method obtained from patients’ medical and receipts records of five most common cancers (breast, nasopharynx, Non Hodgkins Lhympoma (NHL), ovarian, and cervix) during January-December 2010. The average cost of patient’s side effects treatment was calculated by the average cost of side effects compared to the average total direct costs incurred to cancer patients. The samples was obtained from the population of 2261 patients who met the inclusion criteria, that are 73 patients consist of 62 female patients and 11 male patients. The most common side effects of cancer therapy were nausea and vomiting (59.80%), nausea-vomiting, anemia, and pain (16.44%), and nausea-vomiting and anemia (15.07%). The most used therapy was vitamin B complex followed by histamine-2 inhibitor. The average cost of side effects for breast cancer was Rp 1,715,373 (8.73%), nasopharynx was Rp 1,149,049 (6.98 %); NHL was Rp 360,778 (1.97 %); ovary was Rp 911,118 (3.61 %) and cervical was Rp 1,416,027 (8.87 %). The results indicated that the hospital needs to pay more attention on nausea-vomiting effect of chemotherapy, and also cervical cancer side effects therapy as the most costly.Keywords: Cost Analysis, Cancer, Side Effects, Prof. Dr. Margono Soekarjo Hospital

This research was conducted in April 2021 at Sukotirto, Badang Village, Ngoro, Jombang, East Java. Purposive sampling method was used as a method with the consideration that Brother Farming is an ornamental plant business that produces and manages ornamental plants independently. It was located in Badang, Ngoro, Jombang, East Java. The data analysis used in this research includes cost analysis, revenue analysis, income, and R/C ratio. This research obtained primary data, namely interview and documentation. Interview were conducted with business owner and workers.

Purpose of this research is to know the acceptance level, income and the factors that is affecting the level of sugarcane farmers income. Regional sampling method and respondent sampling are conducted by purposive sampling method which is set a lend area sampled is 1 – 3,5 acres. Number of samples are taken by 59 respondents of the sugarcane farmers who are scattered in several villages at the Pangkah sub District. The analysis method used is descriptive analysis, cost analysis, revenue, income and multiple linear regression. The result of the study indicate that the average cost is obtained by the total cost Rp. 54.953.884. The revenue is obtained Rp. 82.979.127, while the income earned Rp. 28.025.243 every harvest time. The result of multiple liniear regression is known that the determination coefficient (R2) is 0.848. Meanwhile the result of testing t test obtained by educational factors have significant 0.042 which mean have a real impact to income at 5% real level. The ages factors have significant 0.001 which mean have a real impact to income at 1% real level. The land area have significant 0.044 which mean have a real impact to income at 5% real level. The labours have significant 0.001 which mean have a real impact to income at 1% real level. The amount of production have significant 0.000 which mean have a real impact to income at 1% real level.

Abstract. In this article, the authors provide an empirical analysis of the obtrusiveness of and participants' compliance with a relatively new psychological ambulatory assessment method, called the electronically activated recorder or EAR. The EAR is a modified portable audio-recorder that periodically records snippets of ambient sounds from participants' daily environments. In tracking moment-to-moment ambient sounds, the EAR yields an acoustic log of a person's day as it unfolds. As a naturalistic observation sampling method, it provides an observer's account of daily life and is optimized for the assessment of audible aspects of participants' naturally-occurring social behaviors and interactions. Measures of self-reported and behaviorally-assessed EAR obtrusiveness and compliance were analyzed in two samples. After an initial 2-h period of relative obtrusiveness, participants habituated to wearing the EAR and perceived it as fairly unobtrusive both in a short-term (2 days, N = 96) and a longer-term (10-11 days, N = 11) monitoring. Compliance with the method was high both during the short-term and longer-term monitoring. Somewhat reduced compliance was identified over the weekend; this effect appears to be specific to student populations. Important privacy and data confidentiality considerations around the EAR method are discussed.

Abstract. Intraindividual variability, along with the more frequently studied between-person variability, has been argued to be one of the basic building blocks of emotional experience. The aim of the current study is to examine whether intraindividual variability in affect predicts tiredness in daily life. Intraindividual variability in affect was studied with the experience sampling method in a group of 110 participants (aged between 19 and 84 years) during 14 consecutive days on seven randomly determined occasions per day. The results suggest that affect variability is a stable construct over time and situations. Our findings also demonstrate that intraindividual variability in affect has a unique role in predicting increased levels of tiredness at the momentary level as well at the level of individuals.
