Isi artikel

The term masuk angin (MA) has been widely used among Indonesians in describing the process of the entering of wind into the body, causing illness. The real concept, however, still remain ambiguous as it is only used to describe a cluster of symptoms. The aim of the study was to find out how the Javanese perceive M A to give more detailed explanation of its concept indigenously. The methods used were descriptive qualitative involving interviews and literature analysis. Using two illness cognition models and the view of indigenous psychology combined with the interview results, it was suggested that M A is the indigenous identity of Javanese healthy lifestyle. It acts as a guidance of health and well-being behavior in everyday life, thus become an inseparable culture identity. The study has shown that cultural factors play a role in perceiving eastern medicine.
