Hubungan Stress Psikososial Dengan Status Gizi Pada Mahasiswa Kesehatan Di Kabupaten Jember

Abstract

Stres merupakan respon tubuh tidak spesifik terhadap kebutuhan tubuh yang terganggu. Status nutrisi dapat diukur dari indeks massa tubuh. Kondisi psikologis sseeorang seringkali menyebabkan individu cenderung melakukan mekanisme coping mechanism. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian analitik observasional dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Subjek penelitian berjumlah 92 responden. Penelitian dilakukan di Institusi Pendidikan Tinggi Kesehatan di Kabupaten Jember. Berdasarkan analisis statistik diperoleh nilai signifikansi (p) yang didapatkan adalah 0,458 (p>0,05) yang artinya tidak ada hubungan yang bermakna antara tingkat stres psikososial dengan status gizi pada mahasiswa. Perubahan nutrisi pada kondisi stress dapat terjadi melalui adanya gangguan makan atau gangguan penyerapan gizi dalam tubuh. Kondisi psikologis seorang mahasiswa yang penuh stress akan menyebabkan individu cenderung melakukan mekanisme koping. Mekanisme koping dapat berupa positif dan negatif. Peneliti berpendapat bahwa stress psikososial tidak secara langsung berpengaruh pada status nutrisi, melainkan pada pola perilaku dalam pemenuhan nutrisi atau pola makan. Selain itu dampak stress psikososial akan dapat dinilai apabila kondisi stress berlangsung lama atau bersifat kronis.Kata kunci : stress psikososial, status nutrisi

“…11 Meanwhile, the results of Zaini's research (2020) show that there is no significant relationship between levels of psychosocial stress with the nutritional status of female health students in Jember Regency because stress does not directly affect the nutritional status of female students. 12 Research related to food preferences in 2017 stated that food preferences also have a weak relationship with the nutritional status of female students. Food preferences can not directly affect nutritional status except through the level of adequacy of energy consumed.…”
