Abstract:
Dalam makalah ini, saya mengusung tema persahabatan untuk menjadi praktik eklesial, sebuah praktik yang diadaptasi dari “pembimbingan spiritual” (spiritual direction). Pendekatan yang akan saya tawarkan tampak berbeda dari yang ditawarkan oleh berbagai sekolah teologi Protestan seperti, ilmu pendampingan pastoral sampai pastoral klinis. Sebab itu, saya hendak mengusulkan “pembimbingan spiritual” (spiritual direction) atau “persahabatan spiritual” (spiritual companion). Saya akan menggunakan konsep philia, yakni cinta antar-dua orang (atau lebih) yang nonseksual dan nonerotis. Cinta ini mewujud di antara dua sahabat yang berkomitmen berjalan bersama-sama, saling berdampingan dan menatap ke satu visi dan berjalan bersama demi menggapai visi itu. Dengan meminjam ide anam ċara, “sahabat jiwa” dari tradisi Keltik-Irlandia, maka “persahabatan spiritual” (spiritual companionship) dapat menjadi habitus di jemaat-jemaat Kristen Indonesia guna semakin mekarnya spiritualitas warga gereja.

Abstract:
In the field of organizational psychology, the study of task conflict and relationship conflict is noted. However, there seems to be a paucity in research clarifying relationship among organizational members that can reduce the impact of task conflict on relationship conflict. The purpose of this study is to conceptualization and scale development of organizational companionship, which mitigates the effects of task conflict on relationship conflict. In the first study, an in-depth interview was conducted in order to explore relationship-based factors that could reduce the effects of task conflict on relationship conflict. Such factors that reduce relationship conflict in presence of task conflict were defined as organizational companionship, and was conceptualized as being composed of five sub-factors-jeong, we-ness, mutual trust, loyal behavior, and responsibility-which were named based on literature review. In the second study, a scale for organizational companionship was developed based on the in-depth interview. The result of exploratory factor analysis using data of 310 participants showed a 5 factor structure with 28 items. It was also verified that organizational companionship reduced the effects of task conflict on relationship conflict. In the third study, confirmatory factor analysis was conducted with a sample of 304 participants, and the results signified that the 5 factor structure indicated a satisfactory fit. Based on such findings, theoretical and practical implication, limitations, and suggestions for future research were discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives Social relationships are important for older adults’ well-being, including those who live in assisted living (AL) communities. This study explores coresident networks within an AL community and identifies factors associated with residents’ social ties. Methods Acquaintance and companionship networks within the community are described using cross-sectional survey data (N = 38). We use inferential network statistical methods to estimate parameters for factors associated with residents’ acquaintance and companionship ties. Results Residents reported an average of 10 acquaintances and almost 4 companionships with other residents in the sample. The likelihood a resident had an acquaintance was associated with higher levels of cognitive functioning (p < .05), higher levels of physical limitations (p < .01), living in the AL community for a longer time (p < .01), and less frequent contact with outside family and friends (p < .05). Acquaintances were more likely between residents who moved in around the same time as each other (p < .01), lived on the same floor (p < .001), or had similar levels of physical limitations (p < .05). Companionships were more likely to be reported by male residents (p < .05) and residents with higher levels of cognitive functioning (p < .05) or depressive symptoms (p < .05). Longtime residents were more popular as companions (p < .01). Companionships were more likely between residents who lived on the same floor (p < .001) or were similar in age (p < .01). Discussion This research contributes to the literature of older adults’ nonkin social relationships by providing detailed descriptions of the acquaintance and companionship networks within an AL community, quantifying correlates of residents’ social ties, and distinguishing between acquaintances and companions.

Abstract:
Companionship is the most important social support factor in physical activities, but the influence of companionship on the daily physical activities of Chinese people in the square is not clear. The ordered logistic regression was conducted to identify the companionship and physical activities associated with the physical and mental health of residents (n = 196). The results show that companionship has direct and indirect effects on mental health, and companionship acts on physical health through physical activity in public squares. Our research understands the use of public open space (POS) from the perspective of companionship and provides a new perspective for improving the sociality of POS design.

Abstract:
Population aging is increasingly serious. The application of social robots for home-based elder care is an important way to solve this problem. Aging adults’ demands for social robots’ companionship affect robotic designs. This study aimed to investigate aging adults’ demands for social robots’ companionship and explored in which life situations it was appropriate to accompany aging adults by social robots. This study involved three phases. Phase 1 (an interview survey) collected the life situations in which aging adults lived alone at home. Based on the results of Phase 1, Phase 2 (a questionnaire survey) investigated aging adults’ demands for companionship, whereas Phase 3 (an expert evaluation) investigated the feasibility of the robots’ companionship for aging adults. After the three phases, this study compared aging adults’ demands for companionship with the feasibility of social robots’ companionship in each life situation. Based on the results, the life situations of dinning and watching TV, there was a greater likelihood that the companionship that aging adults needed might be provided by social robots. In the life situations of sleeping and short breaking, it was difficult that aging adults’ demands for companionship were fulfilled by social robots. Implications were discussed for home-based elder care system.

Abstract:
Motivation crucially influences the willingness to play online games. Game motivation can affect players’ flow experience and player’s companionship with their game roles or avatars. However, the relationship among game motivation, flow experience, and companionship is unclear; therefore, designing online games that improving the playing experience is difficult. This study chose online pet games as study samples, and this study used a game motivation scale, flow experience scale, and the Companionship Scale of Artificial Pets to identify the relationship among game motivation, flow experience, and companionship. According to 216 valid questionnaire responses, this study demonstrated that (a) game motivation for online pet game players was primarily immersion and achievement, (b) compared with achievement motivation, immersion motivation had a greater influence on flow experience and the development of player companionship with online pets, and (c) players with immersion and achievement motivation had a substantially enhanced flow experience and companionship with their online pets.

Abstract:
Abstract Animal companionship has been found to be positively related to health, though less is known about the features of social networks that include animal companions and how these relate to health outcomes. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between social network composition including animal companionship and health. A mixed methods cross-sectional descriptive, correlation study design was used. Eighty-nine people age sixty-five and older, living in the community, managing multiple chronic conditions, participated in telephone interviews. Animal companionship was common (42.7%) among the sample (66% lived alone) with at least one animal companion (M=1.57, SD=.903) and associated with improved health function (IADL scores) (r=.234, p=.028). Animal companionship correlated positively with health (SF12 General Health Scores) (r=.210, p=.048). Animal companionship is an important feature in social networks of older people that influences health. Social supports maintain these relationships and the animal human bond.

Abstract:
Abstract Companionship with close others are known to have a significant positive effect on our well-being in later years of life. At the same time, it is known that the frequency of meeting and chatting with others, an indicator of companionship, declines as we age. In this study we explore the situation of companionship among older-old and oldest-old people. The focus of this study on understanding how the aging process affects the experience of companionship and how people adapt to the loss of companionship. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews with 43 people aged 75 and older living in urban communities in Kawasaki, Japan. Participants were asked about everyday interactions with close others and feelings they experienced at the time. Interviews were transcribed and analyzed qualitatively. Chatting, going out for lunch or dinner, and going shopping were examples of activities older Japanese enjoyed with close others. Almost all respondents mentioned the loss of their old friends and siblings. They also mentioned that the decline in their physical and cognitive health, as well as that of their companions hindered shared activities they used to enjoy. They cherished positive interactions with others, although the frequency declined. Some respondents intentionally made new companions in the physical proximity, but it was hard to compensate for the loss of old companions with new one. These findings suggest that the value of companionship remains or even increase as we age. It would be important to identify environmental or social factors that may prevent the loss of companionship among older adults.

Abstract:
Abstract Social isolation and lack of companionship, exacerbated by COVID-19 “stay at home” orders, has been an ongoing concern among seniors in the US. Among other strategies, Lifelong Learning Institutes (LLIs) were created to support continuing education for older adults. These programs bring seniors together to encourage engagement through lectures, art and fitness classes in a common space. LLI in South Florida adapted to COVID-19 “stay at home” orders by moving all programming online in March 2020. In May 2020 LLI members, faculty and students designed a research study to understand the experience of LLI members with social isolation and companionship prior to, and during, “stay at home” orders. Responses included 127 members (mean age 75.5). Respondents reported significantly lower social isolation (p<.01) and lack of companionship (p<.01) as a result of “stay at home”. Interestingly, social isolation had no significant explanatory variables. However, significant results (p<.05) showed that seniors who isolated alone were 6.7 times more likely to lack companionship compared to those who isolated with a friend or spouse; seniors who reported they are not tech savvy were 8.3 times more likely to lack companionship compared to those who reported they are tech savvy; and that for every additional day of poor mental health respondents had a 1.15 higher odds of lacking companionship. These results underscore the importance of technology adoption among seniors during times of social isolation and the positive impact this can have on companionship and mental health.

Abstract:
Victorian writers often focus questions of ethics through scenes of sympathetic encounters that have been conceptualized, both by Victorian thinkers and by their recent critics, as a theater of identification in which an onlooking spectator identifies with a sufferer. George Eliot's Middlemarch (1871–72) critiques this paradigm, revealing its negation of otherness and its corresponding fixation of the self as an identity, and offers an alternative conception of relationship that foregrounds the presence and distinctness of the other and the open-endedness of relationship. The novel develops its critique through an analysis of women's experience of courtship and marriage, insisting upon the appropriateness ofmarriage as a site for the investigation of contemporary ethical questions. In her depiction of Rosamond, Eliot explores the identity-based paradigm of the spectacle of others, and shows how its conception of selfhood leaves the other isolated, precluding relationship. Rosamond's trajectory in the novel enacts the identity paradigm's relation to skeptical anxieties about self-knowledge and knowledge of others, and reveals such anxieties to occur with particular insistence around images of femininity. By contrast, Dorothea's development in ethical self-awareness presents an alternative to Rosamond's participation in the identity paradigm. In Dorothea's experience the self emerges as a process, an ongoing practice of expression. The focus on expression in the sympathetic or conflictual encounter, rather than on identity, enables the overcoming of the identity paradigm's denial of otherness, and grounds a productive sympathy capable of informing ethical action.

ObjectivesTo explore stakeholders’ and national organisational perspectives on companionship for women/birthing people using antenatal and intrapartum care in England during COVID-19, as part of the Achieving Safe and Personalised maternity care In Response to Epidemics (ASPIRE) COVID-19 UK study.SettingMaternity care provision in England.ParticipantsInterviews were held with 26 national governmental, professional and service-user organisation leads (July–December 2020). Other data included public-facing outputs logged from 25 maternity Trusts (September/October 2020) and data extracted from 78 documents from eight key governmental, professional and service-user organisations that informed national maternity care guidance and policy (February–December 2020).ResultsSix themes emerged: ‘Postcode lottery of care’ highlights variations in companionship and visiting practices between trusts/locations, ‘Confusion and stress around ‘rules’’ relates to a lack of and variable information concerning companionship/visiting, ‘Unintended consequences’ concerns the negative impacts of restricted companionship or visiting on women/birthing people and staff, ‘Need for flexibility’ highlights concerns about applying companionship and visiting policies irrespective of need, ‘‘Acceptable’ time for support’ highlights variations in when and if companionship was ‘allowed’ antenatally and intrapartum and ‘Loss of human rights for gain in infection control’ emphasises how a predominant focus on infection control was at a cost to psychological safety and human rights.ConclusionsPolicies concerning companionship and visiting have been inconsistently applied within English maternity services during the COVID-19 pandemic. In some cases, policies were not justified by the level of risk, and were applied indiscriminately regardless of need. There is an urgent need to determine how to sensitively and flexibly balance risks and benefits and optimise outcomes during the current and future crisis situations.

Abstract:
Abstract Loneliness is a robust predictor of aging veterans’ health. Even married older adults may experience loneliness if their relationships are of poor quality. We therefore examined facets of marital quality as predictors of loneliness within a sample of aging veterans: (1) companionship (relationship promotes connection to spouse) and (2) sociability (relationship promotes connection to others). We further evaluated whether veterans’ PTSD symptoms moderated these associations. We utilized two waves of data from 269 Vietnam-era combat veterans (M age = 60.5, SD = .73) collected in 2010 and 2016. Upon controlling for baseline loneliness, demographics, and chronic conditions, higher companionship and sociability each predicted lower subsequent loneliness. We detected interactions between companionship and PTSD subclusters. For example, companionship protected against loneliness only for veterans with low and moderate (but not high) avoidance. Findings highlight nuances in how marital quality predicts aging veterans’ loneliness, some of which are dependent on PTSD symptoms.

Abstract:
Aim: This study aimed to understand the impact of perceived stress on the subjective happiness of Chinese healthcare workers (HCWs) and to further explore the chain-mediating role of family companionship and mental health. Background: In the face of tense doctor–patient relationships; a heavy workload; long working hours; seemingly endless shifts; potential professional title promotions; work performance assessments; and the difficult balance between family, work, and other aspects of life, HCWs are often under great pressure, which can endanger mental health and reduce subjective happiness. However, the role of healthcare workers’ active participation in family companionship in mental health and subjective happiness is not clear. Method: We used a mixed research design to collect data in two locations (Hospital A and Hospital B) in Wuhan, China. A self-distributed questionnaire was assigned to HCWs through the Research Electronic Data Capture survey. A total of 368 valid surveys were obtained. Results: Hospital A’s perceived stress level and mental health problems were more severe, while Hospital B had a higher subjective happiness score and more time to spend with their families. Subjective happiness was affected by children, education, occupation, health status, commuting time, and the scores of perceived stress and depression. The scores of perceived stress and mental health were significantly negatively associated with subjective happiness and family companionship, and there was a significant positive correlation between subjective happiness and family companionship. The results also showed that family companionship and mental health acted as serial mediators between perceived stress and subjective happiness. However, family companionship did not play a mediating role between perceived stress and subjective happiness. Most HCWs had work–family conflicts, and a high amount of work pressure and feelings of powerlessness and not having sufficient time were common when they accompanied their families. Conclusions: HCWs had a high level of perceived stress and psychological distress, and their subjective happiness score was lower than that of the general population. Many HCWs experienced negative emotions when taking care of their families. Only a small number of people had enough time to spend time with their families and perform more prominently in busier hospitals. More importantly, perceived stress can indirectly have an impact on subjective happiness through a chain-mediating effect of family companionship and mental health, and family companionship may not always promote subjective happiness unless mental health is maintained. Therefore, in the future, we can consider carrying out interventions based on family companionship and mental health among HCWs to promote the healthy and harmonious development of individuals, families, and hospitals.

Abstract:
AbstractBackgroundWe examined the influence of companionship and the use of complementary therapies on adverse outcomes in parturients under regional analgesia.MethodsThis study is a single-center retrospective cohort of 986 term pregnant women, and it was based on data from medical records (hospitalization period: November 2012–November 2018). The women were in the active phase of labor under regional analgesia. A statistical program was used to search for an association between companionship and the use of complementary therapies with sample data. Bi- and multivariate logistic regressions based on significant associations were used to analyze the potential intervening variables in the adverse outcomes.ResultsModels were constructed for each of the maternal adverse outcomes. Childbirth complications were significantly associated with complementary therapies [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 0.42; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.28–0.63; P < 0.001] and companionship (AOR = 0.36; 95% CI = 0.22–0.57; P < 0.001). Prolonged maternal hospitalization was significantly associated with companionship (AOR = 0.57; 95% CI = 0.36–0.92; P < 0.05). Unplanned cesarean section showed a significant association with complementary therapies (AOR = 0.05; 95% CI = 0.01–0.47; P < 0.01).ConclusionThe likelihood of childbirth complications and prolonged maternal hospitalization is reduced by companionship, whereas the likelihood of childbirth complications and cesarean section rates is reduced by the use of complementary therapies.

Abstract:
The present study verified that organizational companionship reduces the effect of task conflict on relationship conflict, which leads to positive effect on team effectiveness indicators - teamwork and team performance. Data were collected from 304 employees using survey questionnaires. The result indicated that relationship conflict mediated the relationship between task conflict and teamwork. Also, the results showed that a moderated mediation effect of organizational companionship was significant. Specifically, the higher organizational companionship, the less mediation effect of relationship conflict. Results of structural equation modeling signified that the moderated mediation effect leads to positive effect on team performance. Lastly, implications and limitations of the results are discussed.

Abstract:
IntroductionWHO recommends that all women have the option to have a companion of their choice throughout labour and childbirth. Despite clear benefits of labour companionship, including better birth experiences and reduced caesarean section, labour companionship is not universally implemented. In Thailand, there are no policies for public hospitals to support companionship. This study aims to understand factors affecting implementation of labour companionship in Thailand.MethodsThis is formative qualitative research to inform the ‘Appropriate use of caesarean section through QUALIty DECision-making by women and providers’ (QUALI-DEC) study, to design, adapt and implement a strategy to optimise use of caesarean section. We use in-depth interviews and readiness assessments to explore perceptions of healthcare providers, women and potential companions about labour companionship in eight Thai public hospitals. Qualitative data were analysed using thematic analysis, and narrative summaries of the readiness assessment were generated. Factors potentially affecting implementation were mapped to the Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation behaviour change model (COM-B).Results127 qualitative interviews and eight readiness assessments are included in this analysis. The qualitative findings were grouped in four themes: benefits of labour companions, roles of labour companions, training for labour companions and factors affecting implementation. The findings showed that healthcare providers, women and their relatives all had positive attitudes towards having labour companions. The readiness assessment highlighted implementation challenges related to training the companion, physical space constraints, overcrowding and facility policies, reiterated by the qualitative reports.DiscussionIf labour companions are well-trained on how to best support women, help them to manage pain and engage with healthcare teams, it may be a feasible intervention to implement in Thailand. However, key barriers to introducing labour companionship must be addressed to maximise the likelihood of success mainly related to training and space. These findings will be integrated into the QUALI-DEC implementation strategies.

Abstract:
Companionship during labour and birth is a critical component of quality maternal and newborn care, resulting in improved care experiences and better birth outcomes. Little is known about the preferences and experiences of companionship in Papua New Guinea (PNG), and how it can be implemented in a culturally appropriate way. The aim of this study was to describe perspectives and experiences of women, their partners and health providers regarding labour and birth companionship, identify enablers and barriers and develop a framework for implementing this intervention in PNG health facilities. A mixed methods study was conducted with five facilities in East New Britain, PNG. Data included 5 facility audits, 30 labour observations and 29 in-depth interviews with women who had recently given birth, partners and maternity care providers. A conceptual framework was developed drawing on existing quality care implementation frameworks. Women and partners wanted companions to be present, whilst health providers had mixed views. Participants described benefits of companionship including encouragement and physical support for women, better communication and advocacy, improved labour outcomes and assistance with workforce issues. Adequate privacy and space constraints were highlighted as key barriers to address. Of the women observed, only 30% of women had a companion present during labour, and 10% had a companion at birth. A conceptual framework was used to highlight the interconnected inputs required at community, facility and provincial health system levels to improve the quality of care. Key elements to address included attitudes towards companionship, the need for education and training and restrictive hospital policies. Supporting women to have their companion of choice present during labour and birth is critical to improving women’s experiences of care and improving the quality of maternal and newborn care. In order to provide companionship during labour and birth in PNG, a complex, intersecting, multi-faceted approach is required.
