Pengaruh Pola Asuh Orang Tua Terhadap Motivasi Belajar Siswa SMA METHODIST-2 MEDAN
Learning motivation is an essential determinant of students’ academic achievement and is strongly influenced by the family environment, particularly parenting styles. This study aimed to examine the influence of parenting styles on the learning motivation of eleventh-grade students at SMA Methodist-2 Medan. A quantitative research approach was employed involving 215 students selected from a population of 525 students using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis after fulfilling statistical assumption tests, including normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation tests. The results indicated that parenting styles had a significant effect on students’ learning motivation, as evidenced by an F value of 9.798 with a significance level of p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). The findings further revealed that parenting styles contributed 10.4% to students’ learning motivation, as reflected in the Adjusted R Square value of 0.104, while the remaining 89.6% was influenced by other variables outside the scope of this study. Partial analysis showed that democratic parenting had a positive and significant effect on learning motivation (p = 0.027), authoritarian parenting also demonstrated a positive and significant effect (p = 0.022), and permissive parenting had the strongest positive influence (p = 0.011). These findings indicate that each parenting style may contribute differently to students’ learning motivation when applied in supportive family contexts. The study highlights the importance of parental involvement, emotional support, and balanced communication in fostering students’ motivation to learn. Practically, the results provide valuable insights for parents and schools in developing strategies to strengthen students’ academic motivation and engagement.

Hubungan antara Perceived Organizational Support dengan Workplace Well-Being pada Karyawan PT Fritto Chicken Indonesia di Kota Medan
This study aims to examine the relationship between workplace well-being and Perceived Organizational Support (POS). The proposed hypothesis states that both variables are positively correlated. The results of the hypothesis testing indicate that workplace well-being increases when POS is high and decreases when POS is low. This study involved 127 employees of PT Fritto Chicken Indonesia in Medan City and employed a quantitative approach with a purposive sampling method. Data were analyzed using the Pearson product-moment correlation test and other statistical methods using SPSS for Windows version 25.0. The results showed a statistically significant positive relationship between POS and workplace well-being (r = 0.256, p = 0.004). However, the magnitude of the correlation is relatively low, indicating that although POS is a meaningful predictor, its practical contribution to workplace well-being is limited. The coefficient of determination (R² = 0.066) further suggests that POS accounts for only 6.6% of the variance in workplace well-being, with the remaining 93.4% influenced by other factors not examined in this study. These findings imply that organizations should not rely solely on POS to enhance employee well-being but also consider other contributing factors, such as job characteristics, leadership style, and work environment. This study contributes to the literature by providing empirical evidence on the role of POS in workplace well-being within the Indonesian context, highlighting the need for a more comprehensive approach in improving employee well-being.
Hubungan Antara Harga Diri dan Kelekatan Terhadap Orang Tua dengan Kecemasan Sosial pada Remaja Gen Z Pengguna Media Sosial
The intensive use of social media among Generation Z adolescents has created new psychosocial challenges, particularly in relation to social comparison, self-presentation, and anxiety in social interaction. Social anxiety may be influenced by internal psychological factors such as self-esteem and relational factors such as parental attachment. This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-esteem and parental attachment with social anxiety among Generation Z adolescents who actively use social media. A quantitative correlational design was employed. The participants consisted of 48 adolescents aged 17–27 years who had passed the data cleaning process and used social media regularly. Data were collected through online Likert-scale questionnaires measuring social anxiety, self-esteem, and parental attachment. The instruments demonstrated strong internal consistency, with Cronbach’s alpha values of 0.956 for the Social Anxiety Scale, 0.920 for the Self-Esteem Scale, and 0.928 for the Parental Attachment Scale. Data were analyzed using multiple regression and product–moment correlation after the assumptions of normality and linearity were fulfilled. The results showed that self-esteem and parental attachment were simultaneously and significantly related to social anxiety (R = 0.433; R² = 0.187; F = 5.191; p = 0.009), explaining 18.7% of the variance in social anxiety. Partial analysis also indicated significant relationships between self-esteem and social anxiety (r = 0.354; p = 0.007) and between parental attachment and social anxiety (r = 0.381; p = 0.004). These findings suggest that self-esteem and parental attachment are important psychosocial factors associated with social anxiety among Generation Z adolescents in the context of social media use. This study provides practical implications for school counselors, parents, and mental health practitioners in developing preventive programs that strengthen self-esteem, improve parent–adolescent relationships, and reduce social anxiety in the digital era.
Ambivalensi Emosi Pengguna Instagram: Studi Kualitatif pada Pengguna Aktif dan Pasif
Instagram has become a prominent social media platform that shapes users’ emotional experiences through continuous online social interaction. Both active and passive users may encounter diverse emotional responses when viewing, posting, comparing, or engaging with content on the platform. This study aimed to explore the emotional experiences of Instagram users and analyze the dynamics of positive and negative emotions that emerge during platform use. A qualitative approach was employed using an open-ended questionnaire to capture users’ subjective emotional experiences. The study involved 136 Instagram users, consisting of 74 women and 62 men. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify dominant emotional patterns and meanings associated with Instagram use. The findings revealed that the most frequently reported emotion was happiness (44%), followed by envy (24%), sadness (19%), anger (11%), fear (8%), and unidentified emotions (5%). The results further indicated that positive and negative emotions often appeared simultaneously, reflecting emotional ambivalence among Instagram users. This emotional ambivalence suggests that Instagram use does not produce a single emotional outcome but rather generates complex and overlapping affective experiences. Although negative emotions such as envy, sadness, anger, and fear were present, they did not necessarily indicate psychological crisis. Instead, these emotions functioned as daily stressors that users need to recognize and manage. This study highlights the psychological consequences of Instagram use and emphasizes the importance of emotional awareness, digital self-regulation, and reflective social media engagement. The findings provide implications for digital well-being programs, psychoeducation, and counseling interventions aimed at helping users manage emotional responses in social media environments.
Machiavellianisme dan Sikap terhadap AI Generatif pada Mahasiswa Sarjana di Indonesia
Generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) has become increasingly integrated into higher education, offering academic benefits while also raising concerns about academic integrity. Although previous studies have examined students’ acceptance of Gen AI, the role of dark personality traits, particularly Machiavellianism, remains underexplored in the Indonesian higher education context. This study aimed to examine the relationship between Machiavellianism and attitudes toward Gen AI among Indonesian undergraduate students. A quantitative cross-sectional correlational design was employed. The participants consisted of 226 undergraduate students from universities in Java and Sumatra who had used or were familiar with Gen AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude. Participants were recruited through convenience sampling via online survey distribution. Machiavellianism was measured using the four-item Machiavellianism subscale of the Indonesian-validated Dark Triad Dirty Dozen (DTDD), while attitudes toward Gen AI were assessed using an Indonesian adaptation of the four-item AI Attitude Scale (AIAS-4). Both instruments demonstrated satisfactory internal consistency, with Cronbach’s alpha values of 0.82 for Machiavellianism and 0.86 for attitudes toward Gen AI. Data were analyzed using Pearson product–moment correlation. The results revealed a significant positive relationship between Machiavellianism and favorable attitudes toward Gen AI, r(224) = 0.264, p < 0.001, indicating that students with stronger Machiavellian tendencies tended to evaluate Gen AI more positively. Although the effect size was modest, the finding suggests that strategic, manipulative, and utilitarian personality tendencies may shape how students perceive Gen AI as an academic tool. This study contributes to the literature on personality and technology acceptance in a collectivist educational context. The findings imply the need for AI literacy programs and academic integrity policies that address not only technological competence but also ethical reflection and responsible AI use among university students.
Stres Finansial sebagai Faktor Risiko Quarter-Life Crisis pada Mahasiswa Tingkat Akhir
The transition from university to the professional world often triggers profound anxiety among final-year students, a phenomenon commonly known as the quarter-life crisis (QLC). This condition is frequently exacerbated by individual economic uncertainty. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial stress on the quarter-life crisis among final-year students at Universitas Negeri Semarang. Beyond academic pressures, contemporary final-year students grapple with economic realities that subtly erode their psychological stability as they prepare for societal integration. The study employed a quantitative approach with a causal-associative design. It involved 394 respondents aged 18 to 25 years (enrolled in semesters 7 to 13), selected through simple random sampling. The research instruments consisted of a highly reliable adapted financial stress scale (α = 0.97) and a quarter-life crisis scale (α = 0.926), both utilizing a 4-point Likert scale. Data were collected online and analyzed using simple linear regression. The results revealed a significant positive influence of financial stress on the quarter-life crisis (r = 0.703; p < 0.05). These findings indicate that financial stress significantly contributes to the heightened intensity of existential crises; the higher the perceived economic pressure, the greater the students' vulnerability to future uncertainty and identity crises. A distinguishing feature of this study is the finding that financial stress acts as a primary catalyst for "career paralysis," wherein economic burdens not only induce distress but actively hinder students' capacity to make long-term life decisions. From a practical standpoint, these findings are expected to serve as a foundation for university policies to establish comprehensive support systems, including psychological counseling and financial management education, to mitigate the negative impacts of post-university transitions.
Examining the Effect of Road Traffic Congestion on Stress at Work: Do Perceived Organizational and Supervisor’s Support Really Help?
Traffic congestion can lead to various negative consequences for individuals. One of the most disruptive consequences for workers is stress at work. This study aims to examine the relationship between road traffic congestion and stress at work, with perceived organizational support and perceived supervisor support as moderators. A quantitative method with an online survey was conducted on 213 workers in Indonesia who experience traffic congestion while commuting to work or from work. Data analysis was performed using Hayes’s PROCESS macro in IBM SPSS Statistics version 26 with model 2 for moderated regression analysis. The result indicates that road traffic congestion significantly affects stress at work (ß = 0.63, p <0.05, CI = [0.48, 0.78]). However, perceived organizational support was not significant in the role of moderator between road traffic congestion and stress at work (-0.12, 95% CI = [-0.29, 0.05]). In addition, perceived supervisor support did not play a role as a moderator between road traffic congestion and stress at work (0.09, 95% CI = [-0.13, 0.31]). These findings demonstrate that the negative consequences of road traffic congestion are very substantial that their impact on stress at work does not diminish even though workers have perceived organizational and supervisor support.
Pengaruh Forgiveness terhadap Subjective Well-Being pada Perempuan Yang Mengalami Kekerasan dalam Berpacaran
This study aims to examine the effect of forgiveness on subjective well-being among women who experience dating violence. A quantitative method was applied in this research. The participants were women aged 18–25 years living in Java Island who were currently experiencing or had previously experienced violence in dating relationships, selected using incidental sampling. Data were collected using the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) and the Positive Affect and Negative Affect Scales (PANAS) to measure subjective well-being, and the Transgression-Related Interpersonal Motivations (TRIM) Inventory-18 to assess forgiveness. Data analysis was conducted using simple linear regression. The results indicate that forgiveness has a positive and significant effect on subjective well-being (p < 0.05), with a contribution of 21.5%. These findings show that forgiveness plays an important role in supporting the psychological well-being of women who experience dating violence. This study is expected to contribute to the development of positive psychology and provide practical implications for psychological recovery efforts among female survivors of dating violence.
Peran Aktivisme sebagai Mediator dalam Hubungan Social Dominance Orientation terhadap Niat Radikalisme Mahasiswa
University students are widely regarded as agents of change with highly critical attitudes. However, they are often vulnerable to exposure to radical ideologies. The phenomenon of radicalism in campus environments is a complex issue that can be influenced by how individuals or groups perceive social hierarchies and their participation in social movements. This study aims to examine the effect of Social Dominance Orientation (SDO) on students' tendency toward radicalism, with activism serving as a mediating variable. The study employed a quantitative approach involving 246 student participants from various higher education institutions, including those both affiliated and unaffiliated with student organizations. Mediation analysis was conducted to test the proposed model. The results indicate that SDO has a significant direct effect on radical intentions (p < .001). Furthermore, SDO significantly influences radical intentions indirectly through activism as a mediator (p = .002). These findings demonstrate that SDO can foster students' radical intentions both directly and indirectly through their involvement in activism. This study contributes to the existing literature by elucidating how SDO influences students' radical tendencies through their engagement in activism.
Pengaruh School Burnout terhadap Perilaku Off-task pada Peserta Didik di SMP Negeri 1 Godean
This research is motivated by empirical findings at SMP Negeri 1 Godean, where high curriculum demands and academic expectations trigger symptoms of mental fatigue among students. Preliminary observations revealed that many students exhibited apathy and frequently engaged in non-academic activities during lessons, such as chatting or daydreaming, indicating issues with school burnout and off-task behavior. This study is crucial to empirically examine the extent to which burnout levels contribute to the frequency of student disengagement in the classroom. The research method employed is quantitative correlational with a simple linear regression design involving 200 students as samples selected through the stratified random sampling technique. Data were collected using a school burnout scale (α = 0.672) and an off-task behavior scale (α = 0.645), both of which have been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 27 to test the hypothesis through the coefficient of determination (R2). The results indicate a significant influence of school burnout on off-task behavior, where an increase in academic burnout is directly proportional to the increased frequency of student withdrawal in the classroom. These findings highlight important implications for educational practice in schools, particularly in the development of preventive and intervention strategies aimed at strengthening students’ emotional regulation, academic engagement, and self-control to reduce school burnout and minimize off-task behavior.
Hubungan Digital Jealousy dengan Relationship Anxiety pada Emerging Adults Pengguna Media Sosial
The rapid growth of social media has transformed the dynamics of romantic relationships, particularly among individuals in emerging adulthood. Digital interactions allow partners to monitor, compare, and interpret each other’s online activities, which may trigger new forms of jealousy known as digital jealousy. This phenomenon is closely associated with relationship insecurity, especially among individuals who are prone to anxious attachment and excessive concern about their romantic relationships. This study aimed to examine the relationship between digital jealousy and relationship anxiety among social media-active emerging adults. A quantitative correlational design was employed involving 240 participants aged 18–29 years who were currently or had previously been involved in a romantic relationship and actively used social media. Participants were selected using purposive sampling, and data were collected through an online questionnaire accompanied by informed consent. Digital jealousy was measured using the Digital Jealousy Scale (DJS), while relationship anxiety was assessed using the Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation after the normality assumption was fulfilled. The results revealed a significant positive relationship between digital jealousy and relationship anxiety. These findings indicate that emerging adults who experience higher levels of jealousy triggered by partners’ digital activities tend to report higher levels of anxiety in romantic relationships. This study highlights the importance of understanding digital jealousy as a psychological factor that may affect emotional security in romantic relationships. The findings provide practical implications for relationship counseling, digital literacy, and psychoeducation programs aimed at helping emerging adults develop healthier patterns of social media use and more adaptive emotional regulation in romantic relationships.
Artificial Intelligence dalam Layanan E-Konseling untuk Mendukung Mental Health Remaja: A Systematic Literature Review
The development of digital technology has driven the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into e-counseling services to support adolescent mental health. However, the effectiveness and challenges of AI implementation in this context have not yet been systematically mapped. This study aims to analyze the use of Artificial Intelligence in e-counseling services for adolescent mental health. This research employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach following the PRISMA guidelines. Article searches were conducted in the Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Springer, PubMed, and ResearchGate databases. The findings indicate that AI-based chatbots, ChatGPT, and digital counseling platforms are capable of: (1) increasing the accessibility of counseling services, (2) providing initial psychological support, (3) assisting in the management of anxiety and stress, and (4) improving users' psychological well-being. AI is also considered to offer flexibility and comfort in the digital counseling process. Despite these benefits, the use of AI in e-counseling still faces challenges such as limited empathy, communication errors, AI hallucination, as well as ethical and data privacy issues. Therefore, AI should be positioned as a supporting tool for counseling services, not as a replacement for human counselors. Further research is needed to develop ethical protocols for AI use in adolescent counseling services.
Kekerasan Verbal Siswa dan Penanganannya melalui Layanan Bimbingan dan Konseling: Studi Kasus Klinis di MAN 2 Bulukumba
Verbal violence among students is a serious psychosocial problem in schools because it may disrupt interpersonal relationships, emotional development, and students’ psychological well-being. Although verbal aggression is often perceived as ordinary teasing or joking, repeated exposure may lead to anxiety, fear, decreased self-confidence, and social withdrawal among victims. This study aimed to describe the forms of verbal violence, its contributing factors, its psychological impact on victims, and the efforts made to address it through guidance and counseling services at MAN 2 Bulukumba. A qualitative approach with a clinical case study design was employed. The participants consisted of MF as the perpetrator, AR as the victim, the school counselor, parents, and peers. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that MF’s verbal violence appeared in the form of harsh words, ridicule, insults, and emotionally uncontrolled speech that had developed into a habitual behavior. The contributing factors included poor emotional regulation, impulsivity, limited parental supervision, and a peer environment that tolerated harsh language. The impact on the victim included reduced self-confidence, anxiety, fear, and social withdrawal. The handling process involved guidance and counseling services based on Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), role playing, and collaboration with parents and school stakeholders. These findings highlight the importance of structured, collaborative, and sustainable counseling interventions in preventing and addressing verbal violence in schools. The study provides practical implications for school counselors in developing socio-emotional guidance programs, strengthening emotional regulation, and fostering a respectful, empathetic, safe, and inclusive school communication culture.
Turnover Intention pada Karyawan Generasi Z di Industri Ritel Jabodetabek: Peran Burnout dan Work-Life Balance
High employee turnover rates in the retail industry present a significant challenge to company sustainability, particularly as Generation Z continues to become a more dominant workforce. The retail industry is important to study because it is characterized by a fast-paced, dynamic work environment that demands a high level of responsiveness to customer needs, often resulting in employees facing ongoing work pressure. The uniqueness of retail employee work behavior lies in the need to remain responsive and provide optimal service within a busy and often unpredictable work schedule. This situation has the potential to lead to excessive workload, physical and emotional exhaustion known as burnout, and difficulty balancing work and personal life. This study examines the impact of burnout and work-life balance on turnover intention among Generation Z employees in the Jabodetabek retail sector. It adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing a survey method and a correlational design. The population includes Generation Z retail workers in Jabodetabek, selected through purposive sampling. Data were gathered online via questionnaires and involved 185 respondents fitting the criteria. Analysis employed Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). Results indicated that burnout had a positively impacts turnover intention, while work-life balance negatively influences. Both burnout and work-life balance were proven to be significant predictors of turnover intention among Generation Z employees in the retail industry. The findings of this study have implications for retail companies to focus more on workload management and work-life balance policies in order to reduce turnover intention levels, as well as contribute to the development of industrial and organizational psychology studies related to the work characteristics of Generation Z.
Hubungan Self-Doubt dengan Resiliensi pada Remaja: Studi pada Siswa SMA Negeri
Adolescence is a developmental period marked by academic demands, social expectations, and emotional changes that may increase vulnerability to self-doubt. Self-doubt reflects uncertainty about one’s abilities and may weaken students’ capacity to cope with challenges. Resilience, on the other hand, enables adolescents to adapt positively, recover from difficulties, and maintain psychological functioning under pressure. This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-doubt and resilience among public high school students. A quantitative correlational design was employed involving 111 students from grades 10 and 11 selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a self-doubt scale based on Oleson and Steckler’s concept and a resilience scale based on Reivich and Shatté’s framework, both using a five-point Likert format. Data analysis was conducted using Pearson’s product–moment correlation after the assumptions of normality and linearity were fulfilled. The results revealed a strong and significant negative relationship between self-doubt and resilience (r = −0.714, p < 0.001). This finding indicates that students with higher levels of self-doubt tend to demonstrate lower levels of resilience. Descriptive results also showed that most students were in the low to moderate category of self-doubt, while their resilience tended to be in the moderate category. These findings suggest that self-doubt is an important psychological factor associated with adolescents’ resilience. The study provides practical implications for school guidance and counseling services, particularly in designing preventive and developmental programs that help students reduce self-doubt, strengthen self-confidence, enhance adaptive coping, and build resilience through support from teachers, counselors, peers, and families.
Regulasi Emosi pada Emerging Adulthood dengan NSSI: Peran Keberfungsian Keluarga dan Self Compassion
Individuals with a history of Non-Suicidal Self-Injury (NSSI) frequently utilize self-harm as a maladaptive coping mechanism, largely due to severe difficulties in emotion regulation. This vulnerability is particularly pronounced during emerging adulthood, a developmental period characterized by significant psychosocial transitions. Consequently, this study aims to examine the simultaneous and partial influence of family functioning and self-compassion on emotion regulation among emerging adults with a history of NSSI in Karawang Regency, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative cross-sectional correlational design, the study recruited a sample of 204 participants through convenience sampling. Data were collected using three standardized instruments: the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale-Short Form (DERS-SF), the McMaster Family Assessment Device-General Functioning Subscale (FAD-GF), and the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS). The collected data were subsequently analyzed using multiple linear regression techniques via SPSS version 26. The findings indicated that, partially, family functioning did not significantly predict emotion regulation. In contrast, self-compassion emerged as a significant predictor. Collectively, both family functioning and self-compassion accounted for 19.1% of the total variance in emotion regulation among the participants. In conclusion, self-compassion serves as a more dominant protective factor in predicting emotion regulation for individuals with an NSSI history compared to family functioning. These findings suggest that clinical and psychological interventions tailored for this demographic should strongly prioritize fostering self-compassion to improve emotional resilience and reduce reliance on self-injurious behaviors.

Penerapan Teknik Thought Stopping Untuk Mengurangi Kecemasan Berbicara Di Depan Kelas Pada Siswa SMK Negeri 4 Takalar
This study aims to determine whether the application of the thought-stopping technique can alleviate students' nervousness when speaking in front of the class at SMK Negeri 4 Takalar. Employing a quantitative experimental approach, this research utilized a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The population consisted of 31 students diagnosed with classroom speaking anxiety. A sample of 20 students was selected and divided into two groups of 10: an experimental group and a control group. Data were collected by measuring students' anxiety levels in front of the class both before and after the intervention. The data were then analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, specifically the independent samples t-test. The results indicated that prior to the intervention, speaking anxiety levels ranged from moderate to high. Following the thought-stopping therapy, the experimental group exhibited a significant reduction in anxiety levels compared to the control group, which received no intervention. The thought-stopping technique comprises five steps: (1) the counselor and client collaboratively identify and select the target thought to be addressed; (2) the client closes their eyes and visualizes a scenario in which the target thought is likely to occur; (3) the target thought is interrupted by a verbal "stop" command; (4) the negative thought is replaced with a more positive alternative; and (5) homework assignments and follow-up sessions are provided. The independent samples t-test revealed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups, yielding a t-value of 7.639 and a significance level of p < 0.001 (two-tailed). These findings indicate that the implementation of the thought-stopping technique effectively reduces the level of nervousness among students at SMK Negeri 4 Takalar when speaking in front of the class.

Penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya strategi pencegahan yang komprehensif yang berfokus pada penguatan peran keluarga, penciptaan lingkungan sosial yang suportif, serta pengembangan literasi digital.
Hubungan Dukungan Sosial dengan Tingkat adaptasi Santri Di Pondok Pesantren Nurul Islam Daerah Al- Kautsar Karang Cempaka Bluto
Adaptation or self-adjustment is a process that involves mental and behavioral aspects of a person in facing a new environment in order to achieve a balance between self-demands and the environment. This process involves efforts to overcome stress, frustration, and internal conflict. Social support is the presence and involvement of others who are able to provide feelings of security, comfort, and appreciation for students through attention, assistance, and positive relationships including social support in terms of emotional, instrumental, and effective aspects that play an important role in helping students adapt and prevent feelings of loneliness and improve students' psychological well-being. This study aims to determine the relationship between social support and the level of self-adjustment of students at the Nurul Islam Islamic Boarding School in the Al-Kautsar Karang Cempaka Bluto area. The quantitative correlation method was used to determine the interaction between variables X and Y. Participants were selected using saturated sampling, consisting of 27 female students. Data analysis in this study used the Pearson Product Moment correlation technique to determine the relationship between social support and the level of student adaptation. The results of the study showed a significance value of 0.124 (p > 0.005), indicating no significant relationship between social support and student adaptation. This indicates that changes in variable X were not followed by consistent changes in variable Y in this study sample.
Tingkat Efektivitas Religious Coping Sebagai Penanganan Stres pada Individu Muslim: Systematic Literature Review
Stress has developed into an increasingly common mental health issue worldwide. This study aims to use a systematic literature review (SLR) to identify the effectiveness level of various types of religious coping efforts using PRISMA 2020 by screening 20 scientific articles based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Based on the data obtained, the most commonly used religious coping method by individuals is prayer at 25.71%, indicating the significant role of spirituality in facing challenges. Next, faith encompasses the relationship with God at 14.29%. Additionally, involvement in social support and reading the Quran reaches 11.43%, highlighting the importance of social networks. The practice of dhikr and patience each contributes 8.57% and 5.71% respectively. Fasting, prayer, gratitude, repentance, and visiting holy places also indicate the use of various approaches in coping with stress, which is relatively low at 2.86%. Factors influencing religious coping as a stress management strategy include gender, income, education, marital status, and environment. Overall, these findings indicate that spirituality and religiosity play an important role in individual coping mechanisms.
The Lived Experience of Grief and Hope Among Mothers After the Loss of Their First Child: A Phenomenological Study
The loss of a child represents one of the most profound and life-altering experiences for parents, particularly mothers who often hold deep emotional and psychological bonds with their children. This study aims to explore the lived experiences of grief and hope among mothers following the loss of their first child. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews with four mothers who had experienced the loss of their first child. The findings reveal that grief emerges as a complex and dynamic process characterized by shock, emotional distress, anger, and gradual acceptance. At the same time, hope gradually develops through reflective meaning-making, role reorientation within the family, and spiritual engagement. The coexistence of grief and hope illustrates that psychological recovery after loss does not eliminate sorrow but allows individuals to live meaningfully alongside it. These findings highlight the importance of psychosocial and counseling support to assist bereaved mothers in reconstructing meaning and sustaining emotional resilience after profound loss.
Hardiness sebagai Moderator: Pengaruh Peer Pressure terhadap Stres Akademik pada Siswa Boarding School
Boarding schools implement a residential education system with intensive academic, social, and disciplinary demands, which may increase students academic stress. This study aims to examine hardiness as a moderator in the relationship between peer pressure and academic stress among boarding school students. This research employed a quantitative approach using a total sampling technique involving 114 students. The instruments used in this study were modified versions of the Perceived Peer Pressure Scale (PPPS; = 0.964), the Dispositional Resilience Scale-15 (DRS-15; = 0.953), and the Educational Stress Scale for Adolescents (ESSA; = 0.950). Data analysis was conducted using SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results indicate that hardiness does not moderate the effect of peer pressure on academic stress among boarding school students. These findings highlight the dominant role of social environmental factors in shaping academic stress among boarding school students.
Perbedaan Kelekatan Dewasa Ditinjau Dari Keterlibatan Ayah Pada Individu Emerging Adults
Father involvement is an important factor in an individual’s psychological development, including the formation of adult attachment patterns.

These findings highlight the importance of father involvement in fostering adaptive adult attachment patterns among emerging adults.
Dinamika Rekonstruksi Pemaknaan Hidup dari Ibu Tunggal Pasca Perceraian Hidup
Divorce is a life event that alters the structure of women’s lives and necessitates adjustment to the role of single motherhood. This situation gives rise to emotional burdens, personal changes, various challenges, and the need to reconstruct one’s direction and meaning in life. This study aims to explore the dynamics of meaning reconstruction among single mothers following divorce through an understanding of their subjective experiences. A qualitative approach with a phenomenological method was employed. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews with three single mothers and analyzed using Moustakas’ stages, namely bracketing, horizonalization, clustering of meanings, textural description, and imaginative variation. The findings indicate that the process of meaning reconstruction is manifested through self-reflection, religiosity, and social support, which contribute to the formation of new meanings in life. This process is characterized by self-acceptance, personal transformation, emotional maturity, and the ability to perceive oneself as an individual possessing agency, value, and life purpose.This study provides theoretical implications by enriching the understanding of meaning reconstruction processes within the context of post-divorce families. Practically, the findings underscore the importance of emotional, spiritual, and social support in psychological interventions aimed at strengthening life meaning and the well-being of single mothers in Indonesia.

Dukungan Sosial dan Kemampuan Regulasi Emosi: Studi Korelasional pada Pasien Autoimun
People with autoimmune diseases often face complex physical and psychological challenges, including fatigue, pain, uncertainty about disease progression, social misunderstanding, and emotional instability. These conditions require adaptive emotion regulation so that individuals can manage stress, accept their health condition, and maintain psychological well-being. Social support is considered an important external resource that may help individuals cope with chronic illness and regulate their emotional responses more effectively. This study aimed to examine the relationship between social support and emotion regulation among people with autoimmune diseases in Indonesia. A quantitative correlational design was employed. The participants consisted of 97 people with autoimmune diseases selected based on predetermined criteria. Data were collected using a Social Support Scale and an Emotion Regulation Scale. The data were analyzed using Pearson product–moment correlation. The results showed a positive and significant relationship between social support and emotion regulation, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of r = 0.377 and a significance value of p < 0.05. The coefficient of determination indicated that social support contributed 14.2% to emotion regulation, while the remaining 85.8% was influenced by other internal and external factors. Descriptive analysis showed that most participants had high levels of social support, whereas most participants’ emotion regulation was in the moderate category. These findings indicate that although social support plays a significant role, it is not sufficient by itself to optimize emotion regulation among people with autoimmune diseases. The study highlights the need for psychological interventions that not only strengthen social support but also develop structured emotion regulation skills. These findings provide practical implications for counselors, families, health professionals, and support communities in promoting adaptive coping, emotional resilience, and psychological well-being among people living with autoimmune diseases.

Dukungan dari teman, pasangan, dan komunitas membantu partisipan mengembangkan otonomi, mengelola lingkungan sosial yang belum sepenuhnya menerima keberagaman orientasi seksual, serta menemukan tujuan hidup yang bermakna. Selain itu, penelitian ini juga menemukan temuan di luar kerangka Ryff, yaitu pengelolaan identitas secara selektif, penetapan batasan psikologis, dan pembentukan rasa aman melalui relasi serta komunitas yang suportif sebagai strategi koping adaptif. Temuan ini memberikan implikasi bahwa upaya mendukung kesejahteraan psikologis individu lesbian perlu mempertimbangkan konteks sosial serta strategi adaptif yang mereka kembangkan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.
Hubungan antara self efficacy dan dukungan sosial dengan pengambilan keputusan karir pada mahasiswa akhir
This study aims to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and social support with career decision-making among final year students. This study uses a quantitative approach with a research design. The analysis techniques used in this study are Pearson Product Moment correlation test and multiple correlation. The number of participants in this study was 516 final year students using non-probability sampling techniques. Data collection was conducted using three instruments, namely the General Self-Efficacy (GSE) scale, the social support scale modified from MPSS, and the career decision-making scale compiled based on aspects (Hopson and Hayes, 1978). The results of the study show that all three hypotheses are accepted, namely that self-efficacy has a positive relationship with career decision-making, and social support also has a positive relationship with career decision-making. In addition, self-efficacy and social support are proven to have a strong stimulant relationship with the career decision-making of final year students. This study confirms that a person's beliefs and support from their environment play an important role in helping final year students determine their career path and decisions after graduation.
Pengaruh Psikoedukasi Kesehatan Mental dan Pelatihan Relaksasi terhadap Literasi Kesehatan Mental Siswa SMA
Adolescent mental health is an important educational and public health concern, as this developmental stage involves complex physical, emotional, social, and psychological changes that may increase vulnerability to mental health problems. Mental health literacy is therefore essential to help students recognize psychological difficulties, reduce stigma, and apply appropriate coping strategies. This study aimed to examine the effect of mental health psychoeducation combined with relaxation training on mental health literacy among high school students in Gresik, Indonesia. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. The participants consisted of 54 high school students who completed all stages of the study, including screening, pre-test, intervention, and post-test. Initial mental health screening was conducted using the Mental Health Continuum–Short Form (MHC-SF), while mental health literacy was measured using the Mental Health Knowledge Questionnaire (MHKQ). The intervention consisted of psychoeducation on mental health, stress, and coping strategies, followed by simple deep-breathing relaxation exercises. The screening results showed that students were distributed across flourishing, moderate, and languishing categories, indicating varied levels of mental well-being. The results further indicated a modest increase in mental health literacy scores from pre-test (M = 13.31) to post-test (M = 13.94), accompanied by a positive shift in literacy categories, marked by a decrease in the low category and an increase in the good category. These findings suggest that psychoeducation combined with relaxation training can support the improvement of students’ mental health literacy, although the magnitude of change remains moderate. This study provides practical implications for schools in developing simple, applicable, and promotive mental health programs to strengthen students’ understanding of mental health and adaptive coping.
Self-Healing melalui Teknik Relaksasi sebagai Intervensi Kecemasan pada Remaja Korban Kekerasan Seksual: Studi Pra-Eksperimental di Munggu, Bangka Tengah
Sexual violence against adolescents leads to severe psychological consequences, particularly anxiety disorders that impair development and social functioning. This study examined the effectiveness of self-healing intervention through relaxation techniques in reducing anxiety among adolescent survivors of sexual abuse in Munggu, Central Bangka. A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was employed. Seven participants were selected using purposive sampling based on inclusion criteria. Anxiety levels were measured by the anxiety subscale of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale 21 (DASS-21) before and after four sessions of relaxation training (diaphragmatic breathing and progressive muscle relaxation). The Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used for data analysis. Results revealed a decrease in anxiety scores in six out of seven participants, but the difference was not statistically significant (Z = -1.859, p = .063). Despite non-significance, four participants shifted from severe to moderate anxiety categories. Qualitative findings corroborated that relaxation techniques assisted survivors in managing acute daily anxiety. The findings indicate that short-term self-healing intervention alone is insufficient to significantly alleviate trauma-based anxiety but holds promise as an adjunctive coping skill. Future research with longer intervention duration, larger sample, and control group is strongly recommended.
Fleksibilitas Kognitif sebagai Prediktor Pikiran Bunuh Diri pada Mahasiswa Tingkat Akhir
This study investigates the role of cognitive flexibility as a protective factor against suicidal ideation among final-year undergraduate students in Central Java. Grounded in the Fluid Vulnerability Theory and the Suicidal Mode framework, this research examines how internal cognitive mechanisms regulate the activation of suicide-related affective systems under academic stress. A correlational quantitative design was employed, involving 252 participants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Cognitive Flexibility Inventory (CFI) and the Revised Suicide Ideation Scale (R-SIS), both of which demonstrated strong psychometric properties. Linear regression analysis revealed a significant negative relationship between cognitive flexibility and suicidal ideation (β = -0.179, p < .01), indicating that the higher cognitive flexibility predicts lower levels of suicidal thoughts. Furthermore, cognitive flexibility significantly reduced both covert (passive desire) and overt (active planning) dimensions of suicidal ideation. These findings highlight cognitive flexibility as a transdiagnostic protective mechanism that disrupts the activation of suicidal mode by enabling adaptive cognitive reappraisal and alternative problem-solving strategies. The study contributes to the literature by shifting the focus from external stressors to internal cognitive processes, offering implications for preventive interventions in higher education settings.
Hubungan antara Kecerdasan Emosional dan Manajemen Konflik pada Pengurus BEM FKIP Universitas Lambung Mangkurat
This study was motivated by the frequent conflicts that arise within student organizations due to differences in personality, background, and communication styles among members. The study aims to examine the relationship between emotional intelligence and conflict management among the executive board members of the Student Executive Board of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education at Lambung Mangkurat University (BEM FKIP ULM). The study employed a quantitative approach using a correlational method. The research participants consisted of 68 BEM FKIP ULM executives selected using a saturation sampling technique. The research instruments comprised an emotional intelligence questionnaire and a conflict management questionnaire developed based on the theories of Goleman and Rahim. Data analysis was conducted using Pearson’s Product-Moment correlation with the assistance of SPSS. The results indicated a positive and significant relationship between emotional intelligence and conflict management, with a correlation coefficient of 0.733 and a significance level of 0.000. These findings suggest that the higher the emotional intelligence of the executives, the better their ability to manage conflicts constructively. This study concludes that emotional intelligence plays a crucial role in supporting the effectiveness of conflict management within student organizations.
Pengaruh Penggunaan Media Sosial terhadap Tingkat Depresi dan Prokrastinasi Akademik pada Mahasiswa
Intensive social media use among university students has emerged as a global phenomenon closely correlated with declining psychological well-being and academic behavioral dysfunction. This study empirically examines the effect of social media use on depression levels and its subsequent impact on academic procrastination, positioning depression as a mediating variable. Adopting a quantitative explanatory design, the study sampled 58 undergraduate students from the Mathematics and Natural Sciences Education Department at Mulawarman University who were completing their final projects. Data were collected using three standardized instruments: the Social Media Use Integration Scale (SMUIS), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), and Procrastination Assessment Scale for Students (PASS). Statistical analyses included validity, reliability, normality testing, multiple regression, and a mediation model based on the Baron & Kenny approach. Results indicated that social media use significantly predicted higher depression symptoms (b = 0.397, p < 0.001). Furthermore, depression fully mediated the relationship between social media use and academic procrastination (b = -0.103, p < 0.001), accounting for 78.9% of the variance in final-project delay behaviors. These findings confirm that digital platform engagement not only affects emotional well-being but also activates cognitive-affective mechanisms that drive academic task avoidance. Theoretical and practical implications are comprehensively discussed, including recommendations for cognitive-behavioral counseling interventions and digital literacy regulation within higher education settings.
The Role of Group Counseling in Enhancing Social Skills of Secondary School Students: A Systematic Literature Review
Social skills are essential competencies that enable students to interact effectively, build positive relationships, and adapt to social environments in school settings. However, many secondary school students experience difficulties in social interaction, such as poor communication, limited empathy, and ineffective cooperation with peers. Group counseling has been widely implemented as an intervention to address these challenges by providing structured opportunities for interaction, reflection, and social learning. This study aims to systematically review empirical research on the role of group counseling in enhancing social skills among secondary school students. A systematic literature review method was employed following the PRISMA guidelines. Relevant articles published between 2019 and 2024 were retrieved from Sinta-indexed journals, Scopus, and Google Scholar. A total of selected empirical studies were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that group counseling interventions are effective in improving students’ communication skills, empathy, self-control, cooperation, and social adjustment. Techniques such as role-playing, group discussion, and experiential activities were identified as key components contributing to positive outcomes. This review highlights that group counseling is most effective when facilitated by competent counselors and supported by a conducive school environment. The study contributes to the counseling literature by providing an integrative synthesis of recent evidence and offers practical implications for school counselors in designing effective group counseling programs to enhance students’ social skills.
Emotional Attachment dan Pengaruhnya terhadap Perilaku Digital Hoarding pada Generasi Z
Digital hoarding has become an increasingly relevant psychological phenomenon in the digital era, particularly among Generation Z, who are highly engaged with digital devices and online storage. The tendency to accumulate digital files may be influenced by emotional attachment to personal digital objects such as photos, videos, documents, messages, and other meaningful files. This study aimed to examine the effect of emotional attachment on digital hoarding behavior among Generation Z. A quantitative cross-sectional survey design was employed. The participants consisted of 255 Generation Z respondents selected using purposive sampling based on their active use of digital devices and habit of storing digital files. Data were collected using the Digital Hoarding Questionnaire (DHQ) to measure digital hoarding behavior and the Emotional Attachment Scale (EAS) to assess emotional attachment. Both instruments demonstrated satisfactory reliability, with Cronbach’s alpha coefficients of 0.802 for the DHQ and 0.858 for the EAS. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression after the assumptions of normality and linearity were fulfilled. The results showed that emotional attachment had a significant effect on digital hoarding behavior (F = 215.6, p < 0.001). The coefficient of determination indicated that emotional attachment contributed 46% to digital hoarding behavior (R² = 0.460), while the remaining 54% was influenced by other factors outside this study. Additional gender-based analysis showed that male respondents had slightly higher mean scores for both emotional attachment and digital hoarding than female respondents, although the difference was not significant. These findings indicate that emotional attachment is an important psychological factor underlying digital hoarding among Generation Z. The study provides practical implications for digital well-being education, particularly in encouraging digital decluttering, file organization, and healthier emotional regulation toward digital possessions.
Pengaruh Self-Control terhadap Perilaku Cyberslacking pada Mahasiswa Gen Z
This study aims to analyze the effect of self-control on cyberslacking behavior among Generation Z university students. The research is grounded in the phenomenon of increasing internet use in academic settings, which on the one hand supports the learning process, but on the other hand has the potential to encourage non-academic internet use during lectures. This study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design, using purposive sampling involving 130 Generation Z students who actively use the internet for academic activities. Data were collected using a self-control scale based on Averill’s aspects and a cyberslacking scale based on the aspects proposed by Albar and Ariyanto. Data analysis was conducted using simple linear regression. The results indicated a significant negative effect of self-control on cyberslacking behavior (R = 0.686; p < 0.05), with a contribution of 47.1%. The higher the level of self-control possessed by students, the lower their tendency to engage in cyberslacking behavior, and vice versa. These findings reinforce the view that self-control plays an important role in regulating maladaptive internet use during the learning process. This study is expected to provide practical implications for students and educational institutions in efforts to enhance self-control in order to minimize cyberslacking behavior in academic environments.
