Abstract
Training the Indonesian Air Force flyers takes a lot of time and fund. The cramped training schedule, demand of discipline and achievement, and intense stress from the fear of dying from plane accidents give the flyer students an even bigger stress that could potentially lead to anxiousness. In the selection of flyer candidates in the field, the most important aspect to be noticed is the body readiness of the candidates, whereas the mental health is frequently left unchecked. There was a case in a training session where a flyer student experienced a bad mental and academic achievement that, after being traced, resulted from poor mental health test, although the military body readiness test was good. It left the country with a loss from having to discharge the student. The aim of this study was to identify the relationship between the military body readiness level and the anxiousness tendency of a flyer apprentice. This was an observational study with cross-sectional design. The research subjects was the flyer students of the Indonesian National Air Force Army in Adisutjipto Airbase Yogyakarta. The sample was taken from all of the subjects which fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The measurement of the anxiousness used the TMAS (Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scale), whereas the military body readiness value was taken directly in the field test. Moreover, psychological stress was also measured using Instrument of Psychosocial Stressor Assessment (IPSP). The results were analyzed using Chi-Square test and multiple regression analysis. It was found that there was no significantly relationship between the military body readiness value and the anxiousness tendency of the flyer student in the flyer academy of the Indonesian National Air Force Army in Adisutjipto Airbase Yogyakarta (p>0,05). The psychological stress factor has a role in creating the anxiousness tendency of the flyer students.
