However, the implementation of tobacco-free was only implemented in a few faculties, and, the whole academic community of University X has not entirely complied with the regulation. This study aimed to analyze the implementation of Tobacco-Free Areas at University X.Methods: This study used a qualitative research method to examine the implementation of smoke-free areas at University X. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, observations, and other supporting documentation. There were 13 research informants, including Deans/Vice Deans from four faculties, the Academic Director of Student Affairs, alumni, lecturers, and students of University X. This study examined communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic organization policies.Results: This study found that university administrators never communicated directly or indirectly regarding Tobacco-Free Areas regulation. It is still neither excellent nor adequate, based on the resources available for human resource compliance and infrastructure availability. In terms of disposition, numerous parties fully support the execution of the smoke-free policy. However, the implementing officers/supervisors of the smoke-free areas at University X were less steadfast. This is demonstrated by the absence of a bureaucratic framework at University X in implementing and supervising Tobacco-Free compliances.Conclusion: Tobacco-free areas had been implemented at University X although they were not yet complete and optimal. It is possible to infer that this was not a priority at University X because conflicts of interest might hamper this regulation, resulting in lacking clarity, and sustainability.","PeriodicalId":413176,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Public Health for Tropical and Coastal Region","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116670398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the other hand, the proportion of disability among the elderly with stroke was highest compared to the elderly with another disease. Disabled elderly resulted in a high burden of care. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with disability among the elderly with stroke in Indonesia.Methods: This cross-sectional study uses secondary data from Riskesdas 2018. The sample was all elderly aged ≥60 years in Indonesia that participated in the Riskesdas 2018 who diagnosed with stroke by a doctor and met the inclusion criteria (2439 samples). This study employed chi-square and logistic regression.Results: The risk factors associated with disability among the elderly with stroke were older age, having a low education level, living in a rural area, not being obese, having a mental emotional disorder, having no smoking history, and less physical activity.

This research aimed to analyze how the poor in the informal sector perceived the payment of National Health Insurance (NHI/ JKN) using the cigarette cost.Methods: Data were collected from focus group discussions (FGD) in three different locations, Deli Serdang, Sumedang Districts and Medan City. Thirty-three informal sector workers with low financial capabilities participated in these FGDs. Health Belief Model was used as the framework for analyzing the data and information. Data analysis was conducted through the content analysis method.Results: The finding showed that poor people who work in the informal sector gave two different responses regarding the use of cigarette costs for paying the NHI/JKN program premium. The respondents had already an excellent perceived susceptibility and severity both on smoking habits and their low finance condition. They believed that the NHI/JKN benefit was to protect them financially if their family members need medical treatment. However, they had low self-efficacy and high perceived barriers that hinder them from replacing the money for buying cigarettes into paying for NHI/JKN premium.Conclusion: An approach to the poor people in the informal sector within their local context, is urgently needed to increase their health insurance literacy and knowledge about smoking.

A total of 72 families were involved in this study, and the informants of this study were mothers of under five children.
