3.2. Qualitative analysis
Qualitative analysis was performed on experiment group based on the result of interview, FGD, observation of psychoeducation process, and observation on participants. Qualitative analysis discussed psychological dynamic of individuals and groups. Participants in the experiment group showed changes that stood out and two midwives (Dw and Lz) observed during ECC showed meaningful progress which then was discussed qualitatively.
The increase of HIV knowledge score was the most prominent in midwife Ae. The increased knowledge aspects were the modes of transmission and symptoms of HIV-AIDS. However, there were no changes at all in HIV (negative) attitude score of midwife Ae. According to midwife Ae, the purpose of the psychoeducation was already clear, easy to understand, and easy to absorb. However, Ae confessed that she was still confused on how to transfer the gained information to the patients.
The decrease of HIV (negative) attitude score was the most prominent in midwives En (62 points decrease), S (31 points decrease), and Lz (23 points decrease). According to observation result, those three midwives were active in taking notes, asking, and answering questions given by the facilitator. According to midwife En and S, the training materials were related to her daily job and all of the materials were useful to them.
