From various perspectives, many researchers have studied ludruk, a traditional folk play originating from East Java Indonesia. However, there has not been any study focusing on how ludruk responds to the COVID-19 pandemic. This article examines how kidungan (song in ludruk that has poetical structure and transmits valuable messages) in ludruk virtual articulates the socio-economic impacts of COVID-19 Pandemic and promotes health protocols in Indonesia. It also investigates how kidungan is used as a medium to convey religious values to people facing those terrible effects. The method used in this research is qualitative research that focuses on textual and contextual analysis on kidungan presented by two ludruk troupes, namely Karya Budaya from Mojokerto and Armada from Malang, that held the show virtually in February and April 2021 on YouTube. The analysis indicates that ludruk Karya Budaya and ludruk Armada presented kidungan to depict the socio-economic impacts of COVID-19 pandemic, especially on low-class people, and to convey the advice to comply with health protocols to avoid the spread of the Coronavirus. It also represents a religious belief in dealing with the virus, reminding people to pray to God so that the COVID-19 pandemic will vanish.
Under specific circumstances such as during aerobic predominant exercise, the production of free radicals increases and creates free radicals-endogen antioxidants imbalance. It causes oxidative stress. The level of oxidative stress can be recognized by measuring the level of plasma malondialdehyde (MDA). But the effect of physical activity and the effect of exogenous antioxidants supplementation is still not clearly known in the literature. Based on the background above, as a preliminary study, the writers conduct a study to investigate the plasma MDA level on mice which is given and not given a combination of Brastagi’s oranges and carrots juice before physical activity using mice’s treadmill for 10,20, and 30 minutes. The research method used in this study is an experimental laboratory study. As objects of this study are 24 mice(mus musculus), white-colored, male, weighting 25-30 grams, which is randomly chosen. The objects are divided into 2 groups, Group A: 12 mice (given a combination of Brastagi’s oranges and carrots juice before physical activity using mice’s treadmill) and group B: 12 mice (not given a combination of Brastagi’s orangesand carrots juice before physical activity using mice’s treadmill). Group A is divided into 3 subgroups: A1 (doing treadmill for 10 minutes), A2 (doing treadmill for 20 minutes), and A3 (doing treadmill for 30 minutes). The same procedure is employed for group B. Plasma MDA level measured after doing a physical activity using mice treadmill. The homogeneity of the result then was tested using Levene’s test and the normality of the result was tested using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (p>0.05). Further, the data were analyzed using an independent t-test (p≤0.05), one-way ANOVA (p≤0.05) then Duncan’s test were used. The analyzed data indicated a combination of Brastagi’s oranges and carrots juice supplementation given to mice before physical activity, for 10,20, and 30 minutes caused lower plasma MDA levels than mice not given a combination of Brastagi’s oranges and carrots juice before physical activity. The differences are 38,44% (0,5277 vs 0,8571) (A1-B1); 37,96% (0,5866 vs 0,9455) (A2-B2); dan77,79% (0,8438 vs 1,6161) (A3-B3).The conclusion of the study suggested that a combination of Brastagi’s oranges and carrots juice supplementation given to mice before physical activity for 10,20, and 30 minutes caused lower plasma MDA levels than mice not given a combination of Brastagi’s oranges and carrots juice before physical activity.
Studi ini fokus pada permasalahan perspektif orang tua terhadap kesetaraan gender dan inklusi sosial dalam upaya meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan anak. Persfektip orang tua terhadap kesamaan pemberian hak kepada anak dalam mengenyam pendidikan dapat dipengaruhi oleh peraturan khas yang berlaku pada suatu daerah. Pola fikir orang tua dalam menentukan keputusan dianalisa melalui konsep Bourdieu yaitu habitus, kelas, modal, dan ranah. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Gampong Batee Puteh, Langsa. Metode yang diterapkan dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriftip kualitatif dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui lebih dalam pandangan responden terhadap masalah yang terjadi melalui ungkapan-ungkapan dan fakta-fakta dalam situasi yang natural. Data diperoleh melalui observasi dan wawancara secara mendalam. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diperoleh informasi bahwa setiap anak baik laki-laki maupun perempuan memiliki hak yang sama dalam pendidikan. Lembaga penyelenggara pendidikan dengan fokus pendidikan agama Islam menjadi pilihan bagi orang tua sebagai pendidikan yang harus dijalani oleh anak. Perbedaan pola fikir orang tua dalam memaknai pendidikan, tujuan, fungsi, serta manfaat yang diperoleh dari pendidikan didasari oleh ide yang muncul secara alami, perbedaan tingkat pendidikan, hubungan sosial yang terjalin dalam masyarakat, serta pemertahanan posisi keberadaan suatu keluarga dalam lingkungan sosial
Workers of PT. Grandtex is divided into three different division; nonproduction division,weaving division, and spinning division. These workers have a different activity, job process,and work environment, especially in cotton dust exposure rate. Exposure to cotton dust caninfluence physical working capacity. This study aimed to find out physical working capacitydifferences between workers of nonproduction division, weaving division, and spinningdivision.Comparative analytic survey study is conducted to 112 subjects, which consist of 32nonproduction division workers, 40 weaving division workers, and 40 spinning divisionworkers. Subjects are picked by stratified random sampling method. Physical workingcapacity measured by using aerobic capacity parameter (V? O2 max)with Astrand-Rhymingchair test. The homogenity of the result is tested by Levene test and the normality is tested byKolmogorov-Smirnov. To find out the differences, those data are analyzed by one-wayANOVA test (p<0,05) and followed by Duncan test to measure how big the differencesare.The result of data analyzed with ANOVA indicated that there is a significant difference inphysical working capacity (V? O2 max)(p=0,000) among workers of nonproduction, weaving,and spinning division. This result was also followed by Duncans test suggesting thatphysical working capacity (V? O2 max) of nonproduction workers are bigger than weavingproduction workers and also bigger than spinning workers (35,78 7,27 vs 31,50 7,59 vs28,03 5,92 ml/kgBW/minute). From this study, we can conclude that physical workingcapacity (V? O2 max) of nonproduction workers are better than weaving and spinning divisionworkers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
