A successful marriage can be achieved by aiming for a satisfying marriage. The low level of marital satisfaction causes various problems in marriage that might lead to divorce. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the “SUPER” program in increasing marital satisfaction. The "SUPER" program is a gratitude intervention based on techniques of building sense of gratitude. Participants in this study were 12 married women with marriage period ranging from 1 to 10 years who were divided into two groups: 6 women in experimental group and 6 women in control group). The experiment in this study used untreated control group design with pretest-posttest and analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test. Data analysis results showed that there was significant difference in marital satisfaction scores between experimental and control group (Z= -2.098, p<0.05). The Wilcoxon Signed-rank test conducted on experimental group found that there was significant increase in marital satisfaction score from pretest to posttest (Z= -1.992, p<0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that the “SUPER” program can increase marital satisfaction in married women. Marital satisfaction aspects that had increased were cognitive, interaction patterns, social support, and physiological aspects. Cognitive aspect had the highest score increase compared to other aspects.

Background: Marital satisfaction is a basis of other social organization health. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the self-differentiation training based on the Bowen Theory to increase marital satisfaction. Methods: The research method was semi-experimental and the pre-test-posttest design with the control group. In this intervention, the population of this study was selected by the convenience sampling method and 38 married women were randomly assigned to the experimental (n= 12) and control (n= 12) groups in Tehran in 2018. The Differentiation of Self Inventory (DSI) and Marital Satisfaction Inventory (MSI) were completed by married women. The control group received no training. The intervention included 10 sessions of self-differentiation training based on the Bowen theory. Twelve women participated in this semi-experimental project selected by convenience sampling as an experimental group and twelve women as a control group. The brief couple-based therapy was taught in 10 sessions based on techniques of Bowen therapy and four components of differentiation. The data were analyzed by SPSS v. 23 software. Results: There was a significant difference between the post-test scores of the experimental and control groups. In addition, training based on the DST approach could significantly increase marital satisfaction (t= 21.62, df= 22, P<0.001). Conclusion: The results indicated that there was a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental group. Therefore, the training could significantly increase the self-differentiation of married women. These findings can be used to design interventional programs to improve conflict, adaptation, intimacy, and marital satisfaction of the couples.

Abstract: Creatinine is formed in muscles from creatinine phosphate and a byproduct of muscle metabolism. Creatinine is almost completely cleared from the body by filtration in the glomeruli. Physical activity can affect renal hemodynamics and protein excretion as well as creatinine level. Prolanis gymnastics is programmed for people who suffer from chronic diseases. This study was aimed to find out whether physical activity could affect serum creatinine by comparing Prolanis gymnastics practised 1 time/week and 3 times/week among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This was an experimental study with a pre-post test control group design. Subjects were 30 T2DM patients who practised Prolanis gymnastics at Husada Clinic Sario Manado, divided into two equal groups (15 people in each group). The results showed that in 1 time/week group, there was decreased creatinine level in 1 person (7%), increased creatinine level in 2 people (13%), and unchanged level in 13 people (87%). Meanwhile, in 3 times/week group there was no decrease of creatinine level but increased creatinine level in 4 people (27%) and unchanged in 11 people (73%). The Wilcoxon Signed Rank test showed a significant difference in creatinine levels between the two groups (p=0.001). Conclusion: Prolanis gymnastics 3 times/week was more effective than 1 time/week in affecting creatinine level in T2DM patients. Keywords: Prolanis gymnastics, creatinine, T2DM patients Abstrak: Kreatinin dibentuk di jaringan otot dari kreatinin fosfat dan merupakan produk sampingan metabolisme otot. Hampir seluruh kreatinin dikeluarkan dari tubuh melalui filtrasi glomerulus. Aktivitas fisik dapat memengaruhi hemodinamik ginjal dan ekskresi protein, termasuk kreatinin. Senam Prolanis merupakan program yang dibuat untuk masyarakat yang menderita penyakit kronis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh aktivitas fisik terhadap kadar kreatinin serum dengan membandingkan senam 1 kali/minggu dan 3 kali/minggu pada pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2 (DMT2). Jenis penelitian ialah eksperimental dengan pre-post control group test design. Data yang diperoleh diolah dengan menggunakan uji Wilcoxon Signed Ranks. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan subjek penyandang DMT2 berjumlah 30 orang (15 orang untuk masing-masing kelompok) yang mengikuti senam Prolanis di Klinik Husada Sario Manado. Pada kelompok 1 kali/minggu, terjadi penurunan kreatinin pada 1 orang (7%), kenaikan pada 2 orang (13%) dan tetap pada 13 orang (87%), sedangkan pada kelompok 3 kali/minggu, tidak terjadi penurunan kreatinin, tetapi ada kenaikan pada 4 orang (27%) dan tetap pada 11 orang (73%). Hasil uji Wilcoxon Signed Ranks mendapatkan perbedaan kadar kreatinin yang bermakna antara kedua kelompok (p=0,001). Simpulan: Senam Prolanis 3 kali/minggu lebih efektif daripada senam Prolanis 1 kali/minggu dalam memengaruhi kadar kreatinin pada pasien DMT2.Kata kunci: senam Prolanis, kreatinin, DMT2

One of the factors that influence Kadarzi's achievement is the knowledge and attitudes of the toddler's mother. This study aims to determine the effect of counseling using backsheet media on the knowledge and attitudes of toddlers' mothers about Kadarzi in the Cipeundeuy Health Center District of West Bandung Regency. The research design used was quasi-experimental with a pre-post test control group design model with a total sample of 28 people each for the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group was given an intervention in the form of counseling using flipchart media, while the control group was given an intervention in the form of counseling using leaflet media. The results obtained from the Wilcoxon test in the experimental group and the t-dependent test in the control group were changes in the increase in knowledge and attitude scores in the experimental group and the control group after intervention (p <0.005). The results of the Mann-Whitney test showed no significant difference between knowledge and attitude scores in the experimental group and the control group (p> 0.005). It is better to do further research related to Kadarzi's behavior so that the application of the Kadarzi indicator can be monitored so that it can describe the results of attitudinal changes, and to increase Kadarzi's knowledge and attitudes to toddler mothers.

The study was conducted on the use of Maple software to reduce student teachers’ errors in Differential Calculus at Evangelical Presbyterian College of Education, Volta Region - Ghana. The research design for the study was quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group design. Convenience and simple random sampling techniques were employed to obtain a sample of 104 student teachers, which comprised 53 student teachers in the control group and 51 in the experimental group. Test items were the instruments used for data gathering. Descriptive, paired samples t-test and independent samples t-test were used in analyzing data. Descriptive content error analysis revealed that student teachers committed many conceptual, procedural and technical errors when solving tasks in the differential calculus. The results also indicated that there was a statistically significant difference between student teachers’ of the experimental group exposed to the use of Maple software in learning differential calculus to control groups exposed to traditional methods. Consequently, it was recommended that Maple assisted instruction be incorporated in the teaching and learning of differential calculus in the school; and also there is the need for the mathematics teachers in the school to employ blended teaching approaches, in which Maple software are used simultaneously to enhance teaching of mathematics concepts.
