Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan relatedness dengan intensitas penggunaan jejaring sosial Twitter pada mahasiswa. Desain penelitian yang digunakan ialah pendekatan kuantitatif dengan tipe korelasional. Responden dalam penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa Universitas Brawijaya yang berjumlah 100 orang. Instrumen penelitian yang digunakan untuk mengumpulkan data adalah skala relatedness dengan reliabilitas 0,887 dan kuesioner intensitas penggunaan jejaring sosial Twitter dengan reliabilitas 0,860. Analisa data dilakukan dengan teknik korelasi product moment Pearson. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan positif antara relatedness dengan intensitas penggunaan jejaring sosial Twitter pada mahasiswa, yang berarti relatedness yang tinggi diikuti oleh intensitas penggunaan jejaring sosial Twitter yang tinggi, dan sebaliknya relatedness yang rendah diikuti oleh intensitas penggunaan jejaring sosial Twitter yang rendah.
Kata kunci: Relatedness, intensitas penggunaan jejaring sosial Twitter, mahasiswa.

Religious/spiritual (r/s) characteristics of physicians influence their attitude toward integrative medicine and spiritual care. Indonesia physicians collaborate with traditional, complementary, and alternative medicine (TCAM) professionals within modern healthcare system, while Indian physicians are not reported to do so. The aim of the study was to understand the r/s characteristics and their influence on Indian and Indonesian physicians' acceptance of TCAM/spirituality in modern healthcare system. An exploratory, pilot, cross-cultural, cross-sectional study, using Religion and Spirituality in Medicine, and Physician Perspectives (RSMPP) survey questionnaire, compared r/s characteristics and perspectives on integrative medicine of 169 physicians from two allopathic, Sweekar-Osmania University (Sweekar-OU), India, University of Airlanga (UNAIR), Indonesia, and a TCAM/Central Research Institute of Unani Medicine (CRIUM) institute from India. More physicians from UNAIR and CRIUM (89.1 %) described themselves as "very"/"moderately" religious, compared to 63.5 % Sweekar-OU (p = 0.0000). Greater number of (84.6 %) UNAIR physicians described themselves as "very" spiritual and also significantly high (p < 0.05) in intrinsic religiosity as compared to Sweekar-OU and TCAM physicians; 38.6 % of UNAIR and 32.6 % of CRIUM participants reported life-changing spiritual experiences in clinical settings as against 19.7 % of Sweekar-OU; 92.3 % of UNAIR, compared to CRIUM (78.3 %) and Sweekar-OU (62 %), felt comfortable attending to patients' spiritual needs, (p = 0.0001). Clinical comfort and not r/s characteristics of participants was the significant (p = 0.05) variable in full regression models, predictive of primary outcome criteria; "TCAM or r/s healing as complementary to allopathic treatment." In conclusion, mainstreaming TCAM into healthcare system may be an initial step toward both integrative medicine and also improving r/s care interventions by allopathic physicians.
