Description Of The Contents Of The Greatness Of The Greatness Of Paranoid Schizophrenia In The Karo Tribe In BLUD RSJ Provsu
Introduction
Mental health conditions, such as paranoid schizophrenia, pose significant challenges in the field of mental health. One of the subcategories of this type of schizophrenia is delusions of greatness, where sufferers feel they have the ability, power, or excessive identity. This study aims to discuss the description of the contents of the oversized understanding of paranoid schizophrenia from the Karo tribe who seek treatment at BLUD RSJ Provsu. With an analytical approach that uses the cross-sectional method, this research reaches 50 individuals in the April to May 2010 period.
Methodology
This study selects a sample through a concenttive sampling method, where participants must meet several criteria. Inclusion criteria include paranoid schizophrenia sufferers who have oversized delusions and are aged between 10 to 55 years. Meanwhile, individuals who suffer from other medical conditions or have one parent not from the Karo tribe were expelled from this study. The data collected was then analyzed using the Chi-Square test to assess the relationship between demographics and the contents of delusions, with the level of meaningfulness determined in p <0.05.
Demographic Characteristics of Participants
The results showed that of the 50 sufferers studied, most of them were between 20 years (38.0%), dominated by men (52.0%), had the latest education at the high school level (56.0%), not working (68.0%), and live in Medan (56.0%). These demographic characteristics are crucial in understanding the contents of the delusions of greatness in patients with paranoid schizophrenia.
Contents of Delusions of Greatness
Another interesting thing is that the insight about the contents of the most greatness focuses on aspects of strength (42.0%). This finding suggests that the concept of strength is a significant factor in the delusions of greatness among the Karo tribe. Furthermore, this research also found a significant relationship between the delusions of intelligence and residence, wealth with education, as well as self-identity with a residence location. This finding shows that the demographic factor can affect the contents of the oversized delusions in patients with paranoid schizophrenia.
Implications and Recommendations
Through this research, it is important to remember that paranoid schizophrenia is not only an individual problem, but also closely related to social and cultural backgrounds. Especially for the Karo tribe, understanding and support from the community will greatly affect the patient's recovery process. Therefore, intervention steps that are sensitive to cultural and social contexts are very necessary in the treatment and rehabilitation approach.
Limitations and Future Research Directions
Further research is needed to explore more deeply about the factors that can affect the delusions of greatness, as well as how to handle the most effectively for patients with this condition. Awareness and education about mental health must also be improved in the community to reduce stigma and support individuals who experience mental disorders such as paranoid schizophrenia.
Conclusion
In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the description of the contents of the oversized understanding of paranoid schizophrenia from the Karo tribe who seek treatment at BLUD RSJ Provsu. The findings suggest that the concept of strength is a significant factor in the delusions of greatness among the Karo tribe.
