“…The implementation of PFA is widely recommended for preventing PTSD (Figueroa et al, 2022). PFA interventions are known to reduce the psychological distress caused by disasters and increase the resilience of individuals (Eweida et al, 2023). All nurses involved in disaster situations are expected to know about PFA (Kılıç & Şims ¸ek, 2019;Said et al, 2022).…”

In the present cross‐sectional study, we determined the self‐efficacy of nurses to apply psychological first aid (PFA) during disasters. The study sample consisted of 580 nurses working in Turkey. The data were collected online between July and November 2022 using the “Personal Information Form” and the “PFA Application Self‐Efficacy Scale.” The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods (number, percentage, mean, and standard deviation), generalized linear models, Bonferroni correction, and linear regression analysis. The mean PFA scale scores of male nurses, nurses working in intensive care units, working as service nurses, nurses who have previously received PFA training and applied PFA in disaster situations were higher. Moreover, 91.3% of nurses did not receive PFA training and 90.3% did not receive PFA service earlier, 31.0% did not apply for PFA, 18.3% did not know about PFA. The mean score of the PFA practice self‐efficacy scale of nurses was 131.61 ± 19.41. There exists an urgent requirement to develop nurses' PFA application self‐efficacy. It is recommended that nurses should be provided repeated PFA training and applied studies focusing on PFA interventions.

“…This can be further explained by the model of adolescent psychological development [ 19 ], which explains self-injury behaviors’ internal mechanism through the combined effect of internal and external factors of “environmental competence-behavior,” whereby effective parenting and high mental competence levels motivate adolescents to engage in relatively positive behaviors. Family intimacy and adaptability—as crucial measures of family functioning and environment—can impact experiential avoidance through psychological resilience, which refers to an individual’s ability to protect themselves from hindered growth when experiencing adversity; the higher the psychological resilience level, the better the adaptive capacity [ 45 ], the more effective the self-regulation when facing difficulties and setbacks, and the more effective the self-regulation, thereby mitigating and buffering the negative impact on experiential avoidance precipitated by low family intimacy and adaptive status [ 46 ]. Therefore, hospitals and schools should focus on and fully utilize psychological resilience’s protective role and mechanism of psychological resilience in regard to adolescent in adolescents’ family functioning and mental health while also preventing adolescent self-injury behaviors by providing courses on emergency and crisis psychological intervention.…”

Background Current research has been focusing on non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) behaviors among adolescents with depression. Although family intimacy and adaptability are considered protective factors for NSSI, evidence supporting this relationship is lacking. Objective This study aims to examine the mechanisms operating in the relationship between family intimacy and adaptability and NSSI behaviors among adolescents. Methods A self-administered general demographic information questionnaire, the Behavioral Functional Assessment Scale for Non-Suicidal Self-Injury, the Family Intimacy and Adaptability Scale, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Self-Assessment of Depression Scale were distributed among adolescents with depression in three tertiary hospitals in Jiangsu Province. Results The relationship between family intimacy and adaptability and NSSI was assessed among 596 adolescents with depression. The results revealed the following: (1) Family intimacy and adaptability were negatively correlated with NSSI behavior. (2) Psychological resilience and depression levels acted as chain mediators in the relationship between family intimacy and adaptability and NSSI behavior. Conclusions Enhancing psychological resilience, controlling depressive symptoms, and reducing depression severity among adolescents by improving their family intimacy and adaptability are conducive to preventing and mitigating their NSSI behaviors.

“…Therefore, having Accident First Aid skills is very important for every Scout member. In the Cub Scout First Aid training, the material includes an understanding of the signs and symptoms of injury, proper first aid measures, as well as the use of simple medical equipment such as bandages, eucalyptus oil, wound medicine, dressings, and other supplies (Zou et al, 2022;Eweida et al, 2023;Lam et al, 2017;Adu & Cendana, 2022).…”

Scouting is one of the activities of forming discipline, morals, character, and mental development with a learning process outside the school environment and outside the family environment which is packaged in an interesting and fun way carried out in the open air. There are two kinds of scout learning material, namely knowledge learning and scouting techniques. In scouting activities there are several scouting techniques that are often used for example camping, exploration, terrain orientation, and mountain climbing. Therefore, it is necessary to implement the scouting technique of scout first aid material for scouts through a Community Service program that is integrated with lecture activities at the project location to implement the scouting technique of scout first aid material for scouts in Gudep Bumi Bahari so that scouts in Gudep Bumi Bahari can know and apply every step in performing first aid in accidents during scouting activities. The purpose of this service is to increase the knowledge and skills of the first aid of the Cub Scouts, because the knowledge of first aid in the accident of the Cub Scouts of Gudep Bumi Bahari is still lacking. The method used in this community service is lecture-based coaching, practice and educational games, interviews are conducted as a final evaluation. The service program carried out with the project implementation team can be carried out according to targets such as increasing the understanding and skills of Scouts related to first aid material at Gudep Bumi Bumi Bahari in SD Negeri Pulias Abaling.
