Pertumbuhan pada populasi lansia telah menyebabkan peningkatan penyakit terkait dengan usia, terutama depresi yang mempengaruhi kualitas hidup. Seiring bertambahnya usia pada lansia, depresi juga akan meningkat. Depresi adalah gangguan mental yang umum, ditandai oleh kesedihan, kehilangan minat atau kesenangan, perasaan bersalah atau rendah diri, gangguan tidur atau nafsu makan, perasaan lelah dan konsentrasi yang buruk. WHO memperkirakan bahwa tingkat prevalensi keseluruhan gangguan depresi di kalangan lansia umumnya bervariasi antara 10 dan 20%, tergantung pada budaya (WHO,2011)Pijat refleksi adalah metode medis komplementer dan alternatif dan merupakan aplikasi manipulasi berbasis tubuh yang sering digunakan (Wang, 2008). Pijat refleksi adalah metode terapi yang bertujuan untuk merangsang organ target dengan pesan elektrokimia  yang disampaikan ke organ melalui neuron yang distimulasi melalui titik refleks di tangan dan kaki (Ernst, Lee, 2010). Penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Aydin, Aslan, Yalcin, 2016, pada wanita dengan OAB (Overactive Bladder Symptom) yang memiliki gejala depresi, ditemukan bahwa gejala depresi ringan dan tingkat sedang ditemukan menurun secara berarti setelah dilakukannya pijat refleksi, dan gejala depresi berat ditemukan tidak ada setelah dilakukannya pijat refleksi.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektifitas pijat refleksi pada kaki terhadap depresi pada lansia di Desa Puraseda, Kecamatan Leuwiliang, Kabupaten Bogor, Jawa Barat.Penelitian ini menggunakan design quasi experimental design dengan rancangan pre dan post pada kelompok lansia ≥ 60 tahun. Pada penelitian ini lansia dilakukan wawancara dan observasi dengan GDS terlebih dahulu sebelum mendapat perlakuan. Langkah berikutnya adalah diberikan perlakuan pijat refleksi pada kaki. Setelah selesai intervensi kemudian dilakukan wawancara dan observasi dengan GDS yang kedua. Hasil rata-rata selisih GDS sebelum dan sesudah intervensi dibandingkan untuk melihat sejauh mana pengaruh pijat refleksi pada kaki terhadap depresi setelah dilakukannya pijat refleksi pada kaki.Kata Kunci : Refleksi, Depresi, Lansia

Abstract. Background: Studies have shown that postdischarge care for self-harm patients is effective in reducing repeated suicidal behaviors. Little is known about whether volunteer support can help reduce self-harm repetition and improve psychosocial well-being. Aim: This study investigated the efficacy of volunteer support in preventing repetition of self-harm. Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design by assigning self-harm patients admitted to the emergency departments to an intervention group with volunteer support and treatment as usual (TAU) for 9 months and to a control group of TAU. Outcome measures include repetition of self-harm, suicidal ideation, hopelessness, and level of depressive and anxiety symptoms. Results: A total of 74 cases were recruited (38 participants; 36 controls). There were no significant differences in age, gender, and clinical condition between the two groups at the baseline. The intervention group showed significant improvements in hopelessness and depressive symptoms. However, the number of cases of suicide ideation and of repetition of self-harm episodes was similar for both groups at the postintervention period. Conclusion: Postdischarge care provided by volunteers showed significant improvement in hopelessness and depression. Volunteers have been commonly involved in suicide prevention services. Further research using rigorous methods is recommended for improving service quality in the long term.

This study attempts to determine whether gamification can be used as a pedagogical technique to overcome the challenges in teaching statistics. A post-test quasi-experimental design was carried out in gamified and non-gamified groups in order to reveal the effect of gamification elements in cultivating students’ statistical literacy skills. Students in gamified group were also interviewed to understand the function of gamification process. The results suggest that; although gamifying the instructional process had a positive impact on developing students’ statistical literacy in medium and high score students; surprisingly the influence of the gamification to the low- achieved scores were not positive. The positive impact was discussed in accordance with the gradual structure of statistical literacy and suggestions for successful gamification applications due to the context were included.

Studies have pointed to the benefits of physical activity (PA), yet the level of PA participation among preschoolers islow. This in turn could have resulted in the limited research literature on the PA level or physical educationcurriculum (PEC) of preschool children. Those reviewed here are mostly from countries in the West, as those fromAsia are unavailable. To fill this gap, the present study was carried out to investigate the effectiveness of a formalPEC on the physical ability of a sample of five-year old children from several preschools in Singapore. Using aPhysical Ability Assessment (PAA) tool with five variables, a pre-test/post-test quasi-experimental design was usedto measure the effectiveness of the PEC with control and experimental groups for the comparative analysis. Theresults of the PAA are presented and the implications from the findings and analysis are discussed.
