2024-10-22T02:34:03+00:00

High school students must have experienced academic difficulties and need skills to overcome them. This study aims to see how strength-based parenting plays a role in academic buoyancy in “X” High School in Bandung City. Strength-based parenting consists of two interrelated aspects, namely strength knowledge and strength use. The measuring instruments used are the Strength-Based Parenting Scale (SBPS) adapted by Hardani, et al. (2022) and the Academic Buoyancy Scale (ABS) adapted by Rohinsa (2019). This study was conducted on active students in grades 10 and 11 at “X” High School in Bandung City, totaling 117 students. Data processing was carried out using simple regression analysis techniques, using the SPSS 25 program. The results obtained were that strength-based parenting did not play a significant role in academic buoyancy in “X” High School students (R2 = 0.019; Sig. = 0.137). However, after further analysis, the aspect of strength use plays a significant role in academic buoyancy (R2=0.035; Sig. = 0.044). In conclusion, strength-based parenting does not play a role in academic buoyancy. The researcher suggests that support be directed to peers or teachers and add mediating variables. Parents of “X” High School students also need to be more involved in the student’s academic process, so that the parenting provided has an impact on helping students overcome academic difficulties.

2025-08-22T04:26:39+00:00

Final-year Generation Z students face challenges in preparing themselves to enter the workforce, including academic pressure and career anxiety. Work readiness is shaped by the influence of internal and external factors such as social support and career anxiety; however, previous research has not yet explained the dynamics between these three aspects. This study was conducted to examine the role of social support and career anxiety on the work readiness of final-year Generation Z students. The study involved 430 students (aged 19–25 years) selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Work Readiness Scale, Career Anxiety Scale, and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and analyzed with multiple linear regression. The results revealed that social support had a significant positive effect, while career anxiety had a stronger negative effect. Career anxiety emerged as the main barrier, whereas social support acted as a driver of work readiness. Psychosocial interventions and career counseling are recommended to improve students’ work readiness.

Adolescents face various psychological challenges that may increase the risk of suicidal behavior. This quantitative descriptive–correlational study aimed to examine the relationships between family social support and self-love culture with suicide prevention among adolescents. Participants were 525 high school students in Maumere, East Nusa Tenggara (233 males, 292 females; M_age = 16.05 years, SD = 1.09). Family social support was measured using the Perceived Social Support-Family Scale (PSS-Fa), self-love culture with an instrument based on Yoon Hong Gyun’s perspective, and suicide prevention with the Reasons for Living Inventory–Adolescent Version (RFL-A). All instruments demonstrated adequate psychometric properties, with Cronbach’s alpha coefficients of 0.78 (family social support), 0.76 (self-love culture), and 0.71 (suicide prevention), and item–total correlation coefficients ranging from 0.235–0.825, 0.231–0.758, and 0.226–0.748, respectively. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s correlation (ρ). The results showed a significant relationship between family social support and suicide prevention (ρ = 0.795; p < 0.001), as well as between self-love culture and suicide prevention (ρ = 0.805; p < 0.001).

Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy among University Students: A Gender Difference Analysis in Central Java Province

2025-11-26T23:23:50+00:00

This study aims to examine differences in career decision-making self-efficacy between male and female undergraduate students in Central Java Province. A quantitative approach was employed using secondary data from the Membangun Generasi Muda Mandiri (MGMM) study, which applied a stratified quota sampling technique. The study involved 173 male and 305 female respondents from 15 universities, with the majority being at the senior class level (132 males and 243 females). Measurement was conducted using the Indonesian-adapted Short Form of the Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy Scale, which consists of five dimensions: goal setting, gathering occupational information, problem solving, planning, and self-appraisal. Data analysis was conducted using an Independent Samples t-Test, taking into account the large sample size and the data distribution that was practically close to normal. The findings revealed that there were no significant differences in career decision-making self-efficacy based on gender. Although dimensional-level analysis indicated a near-significant difference in the Goal Setting dimension, the small effect size (r < 0.1) indicates that this difference is not practically meaningful. Overall, the results demonstrate that male and female students exhibit relatively comparable levels of career decision-making self-efficacy, in which gender is no longer a primary determining factor in the development of career decision-making self-efficacy.

The Relationship between Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) and Nationalism on Life Satisfaction of Female National Football Team Fans

2025-08-19T02:10:44+00:00

Football fans, especially female supporters of the Indonesian National Team, often experience high emotional involvement in supporting their favorite team. One of the phenomena that emerges is Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), which can affect their level of life satisfaction. This study aims to analyze the relationship between FOMO and nationalism on the life satisfaction of female fans of the Indonesian National Team. This study uses a quantitative method with a purposive sampling technique, involving 30 respondents who are female fans of the Indonesian National Team in East Java. Data were collected through a scale that had been tested for validity and reliability, then analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results showed that FOMO had a significant effect on life satisfaction, with an R value of 0.980, R-square of 0.662, F of 647.2, and p-value <0.001. This shows that 66.2% of the variation in life satisfaction can be explained by FOMO and nationalism, while the remaining 33.8% is influenced by other factors. In addition, nationalism does not have a significant effect in this model. Thus, the higher the level of FOMO, the more likely a person is to experience increased life satisfaction in the context of involvement as a fan of the Indonesian National Team. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of good FOMO management to maintain psychological balance and life satisfaction of football fans.

2025-10-03T13:23:23+00:00

University students are required to explore various career options and develop self-awareness to identify occupations that align with their interests and personalities. This exploration process, referred to as career search efficacy (CSE), is believed to facilitate the development of career adaptability (CA) a psychosocial construct that reflects an individual's readiness and resources to cope with unpredictable career paths and role ambiguities. This study aimed to examine the role of CSE in predicting CA among undergraduate students. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 103 participants through standardized questionnaires and analysed using simple linear regression. The results revealed a significant positive relationship between CSE and CA, with CSE accounting for 43.6% of the variance in CA (R² = 0.436; p < 0.001). These findings provide empirical support for career construction theory and underscore the importance of strengthening career exploration self-efficacy in higher education settings. Implications for career counselling practices and future research directions are discussed.
