| dc.description.abstract | Cervical cancer is one of the most deadly cancers for women and diagnosed most frequently
in developing countries. In general, women with cervical cancer are diagnosed in their
advanced stage. Chemotherapy treatment is proven to have both physical and psychological
side effects. However, the patients’ perception and acceptance of the disease and therapy are
powerfully affected by their values, beliefs, and culture. Javanese is the largest ethnic group
in Indonesia whose people have a unique characteristic in coping with health problems. The
objective of this research was aimed to develop the concept of psychological responses and
coping of Javanese women who suffered from cervical cancer with chemotherapy treatment.
This study was designed as a qualitative study. It was a study of Phenomenology. The
subjects of research were female patients with cervical cancer under chemotherapy treatment
at Dr. Moewardi General Hospital Surakarta. The participants were selected by purposive
sampling technique. The instruments of this qualitative study included in-depth interview
guidelines, observation guidance, stationary and tape recorder for documentation. The data
analysis was carried out by Qualitative Colaizzi analysis. The results of study Psychological
responses comprised of anxiety, sadness, low self-esteem and acceptance, sensitivity, as well
as spirit to regain healthy state. The coping strategies against psychological changes were
highly affected by Javanese perspective toward life and religion, which were, to develop
patience and strength, to accept disease as a trial of life, to pray, and to have a faith in fate.
Conclusion and suggestion: Javanese socio-culture and religion provided an impact on the
coping strategies of female patients with cervical cancer under chemotherapy treatment.
Health workers should consider the socio-culture and the belief aspects of the patients;
therefore, they would be able to provide the most suitable treatment for the patients. | in_ID |
