One of the National Family Planning Population Board (BKKBN) programs in an effort to introduce the concept of quality families is Bina keluarga Lansia (BKL). BKL is a group of activities carried out to improve the knowledge and skills of elderly families and families who have family members aged over 60 years and over in the development, care, care, and empowerment of the elderly to improve their welfare. BKL aims to improve the quality of life of the elderly, through increasing knowledge and skills themselves entering the old age period. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the elderly family development program, the aspects evaluated in this study were input, process, and output. This research is qualitative research by conducting in-depth interviews with research informants. The results of the evaluation are known in the input section there is still a lack of human resources, funding has not been able to meet the needs, and infrastructure in the form of a special building for BKL does not yet exist. In the process of planning and implementing BKL activities, it has been going well but was hampered by the covid period. Recording and reporting have not been carried out properly, especially on the use of the online system. output is still low community participation in BKL activities. This happens because of the busyness and work of the family. The target of BKL activities is not only the elderly but also families who have the elderly, but the facts in the field are that BKL activities only focus on the elderly.

There are still many women who apply parenting capital only a myth or hereditary habits. The impact of the low level of understanding about parenting maternal age, especially toddlers 0-12 months of this should be a serious concern of all parties concerned, as stem from the application of good parenting toddlers that we can prepare the next generation of quality. The purpose of this study was to determine the parenting toddlers of mother target groups Program BKB aged 0-12 months during which also evaluated from the perspective of communication. This study was designed using a “Research and Development”. Results of this study when viewed from the perspective of communication, communication models on parenting toddlers applied by mothers of the target group in the success of the family development program of children aged 0-12 months are interactional model.AbstrakMajunya teknologi informasi tidak cukup membawa perubahan dalam sikap ibu dalam menerapkan pola asuh yang baik bagi anak-anak mereka. Masih banyak wanita mengasuh berdasarkan “mitos” atau kebiasaan turun-temurun. Dampak dari rendahnya tingkat pemahaman tentang pengasuhan, terutama balita 0-12 bulan ini harus menjadi perhatian serius dari semua pihak.Pasalnya, hal ini terkait dengan mempersiapkan generasi masa depan berkualitas. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menentukan pola pengasuhan balita kelompok sasaran Program BKB berusia 0-12 bulan yang dievaluasi dari perspektif komunikasi.

The family is an integral part of society. More precisely, the family can be called the primary social group. We know that the family is a key component of the social structure of any society, performs various social functions and plays a key role in the development of society. As the society developed socio-economically and culturally in the ups and downs of the historical process, the family developed along with it and gained new features. Let's look at some definitions of the family in modern encyclopedias and dictionaries: The family is a small group based on marriage or blood relationship. Its members are connected to each other by domestic unity, mutual moral responsibility and mutual assistance. The innovations of each stage of family development, the immediate development zone and the possible forms of fixation or regression in the family development are all given in separate stages of development. The highlighted stages not only reflect the social changes in the family, but also the changes in life goals, values and social roles of family members through their prism. Keywords: Development, psychology, problem, family, social, system, relationships, internal, roles

The aim of the present study was to explore and to understand how 36 urban Southern Angolan couples perceived their family’s development across the lifetime. The study sought to compare those results with three systemic approaches of family development, two Western and another indigenous. Through semi-structured interviews, the existence of two trajectories of family life, with similar life events, were identified. The life events of these two trajectories were organized in a different chronological order, based on the religious commitment of the individuals. The results showed discrepancies with the Western models on the composition of the household (i.e., big backyard families and families with a third element) as well as the type of events considered to be important milestones within the family trajectory (e.g., the inexistence of the empty nest). This study provides support for the indigenous framework proposed by Simões and Alberto (2015) and contributes to a better comprehension of the family functioning of the urban Southern Angolan families.

OBJECTIVE: to characterize the profiles of families in the area covered by a Primary Health Center and to identify those in a vulnerable situation. METHOD: this is an epidemiological, observational, cross-sectional and quantitative study. 320 home visits were made, defined by a random sample of the areas covered by the Urban Center 1 in the city of São Sebastião, in Brazil's Federal District. A structured questionnaire was used for data collection, elaborated based on the Family Development Index (FDI). RESULTS: there was a predominance of young families, women, and low levels of schooling. The FDI permitted the identification of families in situations of "high" and "very high" vulnerability. The most critical dimensions were: "access to knowledge" and "access to work". CONCLUSION: the study indicated the importance of greater investments in the areas of education, work and income, and highlighted the need for the use of a wider concept of vulnerability by the health services.

This study aims to describe the implementation of the elderly family development program in Mulung Village, Driyorejo District, Gresik Regency.The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative through interviews, observation and documentation.The determination of the informants was carried out using a purposive sampling method which involved the midwife in charge at the Puskesmas, implementing nurses, village officials, cadres, and the community. Data analysis techniques using Miles and Huberman through data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. This study shows that the communication of the elderly family development program runs in accordance with the policies that have been determined by the PP and PA KB Office in collaboration with the Driyorejo Health Center to implement the program in each village. By using Edward III's theory which focuses on the communication dimension consisting of transmission, regular socialization needs to be improved so that the public can know the existence of the program, clarity of understanding can be accepted by policy implementers and consistency is proven by setting an examination schedule so that the health of the elderly can run well

The authors describe and explain a family development of the parameter-learning models and algorithms: Expert Query Parametric Estimation (EQPE)-based models and Checkpoint-oriented algorithms. This class of models and algorithms combines the strength of both qualitative and quantitative methodologies to complement each other to learn optimal decision parameters in an efficient manner to make actionable recommendations. More specifically, this family of models and algorithms relies on domain expertise to select attributes and conditions against the data, from which the family of EQPE-based models and Checkpoint-oriented algorithms can learn decision parameters efficiently. To demonstrate the effectiveness and the efficiency of the models and algorithms, the authors have conducted the two experimental case studies, i.e., the stock market and the glycemia, respectively. The authors show that their approaches are more effective and produce the results that are superior to those of the two other approaches mentioned above.
