Lulusan pendidikan bidan yang ditempatkan di fasilitas kesehatan dan desa belum memberikan konstribusi efektif  terahadap percepatan penurunan angka kematian ibu dan angka kematian  bayi. Pendidikan D III kebidanan dengan kurikulum berbasis  kompetensi berupaya melakukan perubahan sistem pembelajaran konvensional menuju pembelajaran berbasis masalah (problem-based learning). Salah satu ciri problem-based learning (PBL) self-directed learning, diintegrasikan dalam diskusi kelompok, diaplikasikan di laboratorium dan praktek klinik pada objek nyata mewujudkan sikap profesi bidan mandiri yang mampu memberi pelayanan dalam siklus kehidupan wanita berdasarkan bukti. Untuk mengetahui hubungan kegiatan pembelajaran yang diterapkan dosen/tutor di kelas, laboratorium, praktek klinik dan kelengkapan alat-bahan pembelajaran dengan kepuasan mahasiswa dalam asuhan kebidanan diagnosa kehamilan di Program Studi Kebidanan Padangsidimpuan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dan kualitatif dengan pendekatan cross-sectional  study. Populasi mahasiswa tingkat II reguler Program Studi Kebidanan Padangsidimpuan berjumlah 50 orang ditambah 3 orang fasilitator, seluruhnya dijadikan subjek penelitian (purposive sampling). Analisis data menggunakan chi-square, regresi logistik dengan pemodelan dan analisa kualitatif. Hubungan kegiatan pembelajaran yang diterapkan dosen/tutor dengan kepuasan mahasiswa dalam pembelajaran asuhan kebidanan diagnosa kehamilan bermakna dengan nilai  p= 0,0001; RP sebesar 9,5 (CI95%=3,75-24.01) menjelaskan kegiatan pembelajaran  memiliki risiko 9,5 kali  mempengaruhi kepuasan mahasiswa dalam pembelajaran asuhan kebidanan diagnosa kehamilan. Kegiatan pembelajaran sesuai kriteria seven jump signifikan meningkan kepuasan mahasiswa dalam pembelajaran asuhan kebidanan diagnosa kehamilan.

Background: This study investigated the correlation between depression, anxiety, and stress among college students engaged in online learning during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and self-directed learning (SDL) ability, which could provide a scientific basis for mental health education of the college students.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 5,558 students from two universities in Anhui province, East China. The Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and the Self-directed Learning Ability Scale were used to conduct an online questionnaire survey.Results: A total of 35.15, 36.32, and 17.24% of college students reported symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress, respectively. Males and nonmedical students were at higher risks to suffer from depression, anxiety, and stress. In adjusted model, compared with Q1 of self-management ability, the odds ratio (OR) of the Q2, Q3, and Q4 were as follows: 0.635 (0.531–0.759), 0.504 (0.415–0.611), and 0.312 (0.248–0.392) for depression; 0.639 (0.535–0.764), 0.653 (0.540–0.789), and 0.421 (0.338–0.525) for anxiety; and 0.649 (0.523–0.805), 0.579 (0.457–0.733), and 0.482 (0.364–0.637) for stress. For information capability, decrease in risk was even more pronounced: Q2 (0.654, 0.540–0.794), Q3 (0.560, 0.454–0.690), and Q4 (0.233, 0.181–0.301) for depression; Q2 (0.781, 0.646–0.945), Q3 (0.616, 0.501–0.757), and Q4 (0.276, 0.216–0.353) for anxiety; and Q2 (0.444, 0.357–0.553), Q3 (0.454, 0.357–0.578), and Q4 (0.272, 0.202–0.368) for stress. Compared with the Q2 group of cooperation learning ability, cooperation learning ability quartiles were positively associated with depression (Q1: 1.382, 95% CI: 1.138–1.678), anxiety (Q4: 1.260, 95% CI: 1.008–1.576), and stress (Q1: 2.002, 95% CI: 1.583–2.532; Q3: 1.600, 95% CI: 1.252–2.044; Q4: 1.674, 95% CI: 1.243–2.255).Conclusion: The prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress among college students was high for those studying online at home during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially among nonmedical students and males. SDL ability was negatively associated with negative emotions of the college students during this period of online learning.

Self Administered Questionnaire

In Western countries, one of the main barriers to entomophagy is repulsion toward insects. Few studies have investigated the factors that influence attitudes toward entomophagy. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study involving a sample of 248 university students, focusing on disgust and other potential attributes that can influence insect consumption, including health literacy. We used a 17-item self-administered questionnaire. Consistent with the literature, two items were chosen as outcome variables to evaluate the predictors of the propensity to consume insects: “Have you ever eaten insects or insect-based products?” and “How disgusting do you find eating insects?” The data analysis shows that having already eaten insects is inversely associated with the level of disgust (OR: 0.1, p < 0.01); and it is positively associated with higher levels of health literacy (OR: 3.66, p > 0.01). Additionally, having some knowledge and information about entomophagy is inversely associated with a higher level of disgust (OR: 0.44, p = 0.03 and OR: 0.25, p = 0.03, respectively), while being female is positively associated with disgust (OR: 3.26, p < 0.01). Our results suggest the potential role of health literacy, in addition to other factors, in influencing the willingness to taste insects. However, further studies involving larger and non-convenience samples are needed to confirm our hypothesis.
