Abstract Background The #MeToo and #Times Up movements have put a global spotlight on the phenomenon of sexual harassment in healthcare. Yet, most studies have explored sexual harassment among female professionals. This study departs from current research practices and investigates the frequency of sexual harassment in male nurses working in the Greek NHS and the reasons for not reporting their experiences. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted using the Sexual Experiences Questionnaire (SEQ) to collect data from 507 male nurses working in Greece's various settings during October and February 2021. The electronic survey was sent to male nurses (n=3,091 registered with the Hellenic Association of Nurses. Survey items were consent form, demographics, three-dimensions of sexual harassment, silencing and negative consequences. Questions were measured using five-point Likert scales, binary scale and multiple-choice questions. ANOVA and T-tests were used to investigate whether specific groups more frequently dealt with sexual harassment. Multiple regression analyses were conducted to investigate the association between independent variables (sexually harassing behaviours) and the dependent variable (participants' negative physical, mental, and job-related outcomes). Results 40% of male nurses have experienced sexual harassment at least once in their working lives, and the most common form of sexual harassment faced was gender harassment, followed by unwanted sexual attention. Male doctors and male nurses were the most common perpetrators. Private and younger male nurses with up to 5 years of experience experienced more frequent sexual harassment. 30% did not report sexual harassment due to the fear that no one would believe them, and because of beliefs, no action would be taken against the wrongdoer. Multiple regression analyses showed that unwanted sexual attention and sexual coercion were associated with physical and job-related outcomes. Cronbach Alpha was 0.91. Conclusion A high proportion of male nurses have experienced sexual harassment during their careers. Being younger with limited working experience and working in the private sector were positively associated with sexual harassment. Policymakers and health managers should focus on sexual harassment prevention strategies and report-enabling policies.

Universitas Ahmad Dahlan (UAD) merupakan salah satu universitas swasta yang terletak di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Perlembangan UAD tergolong sangat cepat dalam berbagai bidang, baik dari bidang akademik maupun non akademik. UAD memiliki website sistem informasi yang sangat baik, salah satunya adalah website Organisasi Mahasiswa (ORMAWA)dengan alamat https://uad.ac.id/id/ormawa/yang dapat diakses oleh mahasiswa dosen maupun pengguna umum. Website ini memiliki fungsi sebagai pengenalan Ormawa ataupun sebagai sumber informasi tekait kegiatan Ormawa UAD. Masalah yang muncul pada website tersebut saat ini adalah mahasiswa kurang mengetahui halaman website tersebut karena Ormawa lebih sering menggunakan sosial media seperti Instagram dalam menyampaikan informasi. Namun masalah lain yang muncul adalah mahasiswa atau pengguna umum diharuskan mengikuti akun Ormawa terkait untuk mendapatkan informasi terbaru,sedangkan Ormawa UAD jumlahnya cukup banyak sehingga kurang efisien dalam penggunaan. Maka dilakukan penelitian untuk membangun kembali sosial media khusus untuk Ormawa UAD dengan tujuan memusatkan informasi pada satu halaman website sehingga mahasiswa tidak harus mengikuti seluruh akun Ormawa dan mempermudah penyampaian informasi bagi mahasiswa atau pengguna umum. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut, maka dikembangkan website Media Sosial Organisasi Mahasiswa Universitas Ahmad Dahlan dengan menggunakan arsitektur sistem web Single Page Application (SPA). Adapun tahapan penelitian meliputi kebutuhan fungsional, perancangan basis data dan mockup, implementasi basis data dan pengkodean serta pengujian dengan System Usability Scale (SUS) sebagai pengujian kelayakan website berdasarkan kisaran rating penerimaan, Single Ease Question (SEQ) sebagai pengujian yang mengukur kemudahan bagi pengguna dan pengujian website dengan ekstensi Lighthouse dari Google Chrome berdasarkan dengan aspek-aspek yaitu performance, accessibility dan best practices. Hasil yang diperoleh dari perhitungan 32 data survei System Usability Scale (SUS) didapatkan niali rata-rata 70,16 dengan nilai C dan masuk kategori Good (Baik) berdasarjan rating penerimaan, kemudian pengujian Single Ease Question (SEQ) dengan survei 10 orang pengguna didapatkan hasil median rata-rata 5,8 dengan kategori cukup mudah, lalu pengujian website dengan ekstensi Lighthouse dari Google Chrome menghasilkan nilai Performance 50, Accessibility 80, Best Practices 86, SEO 80 dan terdapat Progressive Web Application dimana nilai tersebut lebih baik daripada website biasa tanpa arsitektur Single Page Application untuk meningkatkan user experience.

Background: Assessment and evaluation in the curriculum of medical education plays an important role to enhance the learning ability of medical students and should provide the level of actual performance as well as the capacity to improve overall performance. Aims and Objectives: In the present study, the performance of medical students in Physiology was assessed by conventional type short essay questions (SEQ) and multiple choice questions (MCQ). Materials and Methods: This prospective (observational) study was conducted in the subject of Physiology, A total of 380 samples were taken from students enrolled for the 1st year medical curriculum in year 2013 to 2015. The subjects were divided in two groups: subjects of this group-I was assessed with two theory papers consist of short essay question (SEQ), practical exam without OSPE. The subjects of group-II were assessed their theory part only by MCQs and maximum part of practical exam by objective structured practical examination (OSPE).
