THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FAMILY SUPPORT AND THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF PEOPLE WITH MENTAL DISORDERS  ABSTRACTMental disorder is one of the most serious health problems. Families have to spend more time to provide care to People with Mental Disorders at home. People with Mental Disorders (ODGJ) usually have problems with quality of life. The study aimed to determine the relationship between family support and the quality of life of People with Mental Disorders / ODGJ. This research is a quantitative research by using cross-sectional design with correlative analytic method. The sample of the research were 39 people selected by non probability sampling technique of purposive sampling. Data collection of respondent characteristics was conducted by using questionnaire of respondent characteristics. The level of family support was assessed by using family support questionnaires proposed by Friedman and the quality of life of the respondents was measured using the SQLS questionnaires. The findings showed that good and moderate family supports have the same percentage of 35.9%, while the results of the quality of life score showed that the majority of respondents had good quality of life (82.1%). Based on the analysis by using Spearman-Rank test, there is a significant correlation between family support and quality of life of respondents with p = 0,000 (p <0,05) and strong correlation value of 0.618 and positive correlation direction which means if family support increases then the quality of life of respondents will increase and vice versa. The future researchers are expected to exercise control over other factors that may affect the quality of life of People with Mental Disorders (ODGJ).

Background: Adolescence is a key time period for the emergence of psychosocial and mental healthdifficulties. To promote adolescent adaptive (‘resilient’) psychosocial functioning, appropriate conceptualizationand quantification of such functioning and its predictors is a crucial first step. Here,we quantify resilient functioning as the degree to which an individual functions better or worse thanexpected given their self-reported childhood family experiences, and relate this to adolescent familyand friendship support.Method: We used Principal Component and regression analyses to investigate the relationship betweenchildhood family experiences and psychosocial functioning (PSF: psychiatric symptomatology,personality traits and mental wellbeing) in healthy adolescents (the Neuroscience in Psychiatry Network;N=2389; ages 14-24). Residuals from the relation between childhood family experiences andPSF reflect resilient functioning; the degree to which an individual is functioning better, or worse,than expected given their childhood family experiences. Next, we relate family and friendship supportwith resilient functioning both cross-sectionally and one year later.Results: Friendship and family support were positive predictors of immediate resilient psychosocialfunctioning, with friendship support being the strongest predictor. However, whereas friendshipsupport was a significant positive predictor of later resilient functioning, family support had a negativerelationship with later resilient psychosocial functioning.Conclusions: We show that friendship support, but not family support, is an important positive predictorof both immediate and later resilient psychosocial functioning in adolescence and early adulthood.Interventions that promote the skills needed to acquire and sustain adolescent friendshipsmay be crucial in increasing adolescent resilient psychosocial functioning.

Introduction: Low birth weight (LBW) infants are very susceptible to illness.LBW treatment with the principle of preventing infection is very important athome. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship betweenmaternal knowledge and family support with the prevention of infection at home.Methods: This study used a correlation design. The samples were 160 motherswho had low birth weight infants with inclusion criteria mothers give birth tobabies weighing less than 2,500 grams with ages 0-2 months. The samples wereobtained through purposive sampling. The dependent variable was the mother&#39;sability to prevent infection while the independent variable was the mother&#39;sknowledge and family support. The instruments used were questionnaires. Thisresearch analyzed using Spearman Rho.Results: The results showed that there was a strong correlation betweenknowledge and the ability to prevent infection in treating low birth weight (r =0.696; p = 0.00) and that there was a moderate correlation between familysupport and infection prevention ability when treating a low birth weight (r =0.54. p = 0.000).Conclusion: Factors of maternal knowledge about infection prevention andfamily support need to be considered in increasing the ability of mothers to carefor babies with LBW. The factor of maternal knowledge about prevention ofinfection has a strong correlation value when compared to family support factors.Further research is needed on the model of increasing maternal knowledge aboutLBW infants during home care.
