It is important to know, what they are experiencing, how they are feeling and what they are going through. Assessing the emotional expressions of students is essential in order to provide support and to help them to build a positive outlook towards themselves and society. With the purpose of studying the self-assessment of students in terms of their emotional expressions, the present investigation was carried out on 475 pubescents studying in 7th, 8th, 9th class.

The midwife profession has been proven to be able to change discipline and leadership in the world of health. Independent Practice Midwives (PMB) becomes one of the basic health facilities engaged in the field of women's health in which requires the management of health management. Methods : this type of research uses descriptive quantitative methods to look at the management of the Independent Practice system of Midwives Bekti, Kulon Progo. The populations in this study are all officers who are registered as employees. Samples are being used in this study determined by accidental sampling, namely employees who were found to be at work at the time of the research was carried out, as well as the founder of PMB. Results : building requirements, space and infrastructure can be known that the percentage number that has met the standard as much as 95% and 5% of them that do not meet the fire extinguisher (APAR) is not available in ready-made conditions. The percentage of employee indicators has met as much as 100%. The entire process of each examination is recorded in the patient's Medical Record (RM) in the form of a book or hard copy.
