Abstract

This study aimed to investigate decreasing student academic stress in distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, transition period, and new normal era by giving a self-help module to students. This research employed an experimental approach with a group pre-test post-test design with quantitative analytics. The perceived academic stress scale (PASS) and module evaluation scale were utilized to assess students' academic stress levels and their understanding of the module. The subjects consisted of one male student and thirty-seven female students, as the school was dominated by female students. This study indicated that students' academic stress levels during the pandemic and the new normal were in the medium range (18.82 - 19.97). The results showed that there was no significant difference in academic stress between the pandemic and the transition period (t = 1.322, p 0.05) and the data between the pandemic and the new normal (t = -1.426, p 0.05), while between the transition period and the new normal, it showed a significant difference (t = -4.189, p 0.05). The study recommends that schools develop future guidance and counseling programs to help students cope with stress and build resilience. This study's findings can inform policy decisions and academic interventions to support students' mental health and academic success during challenging times.

Abstract

This article has a focus on the role of the Regional Disaster Management Agency in schools in carrying out the Disaster Safe Education Unit (SPAB) program with the case study BPBD Bantul Regency. This is because Indonesia is a country with a high level of natural disasters because it is at the confluence of various earth plates. Meanwhile school is the second place for students to seek and gain knowledge after being at home, especially in studying potential disasters that can occur in the environment where they live. It should be noted that in 2006 an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.9 occurred in Bantul Regency which resulted in fatalities and heavy losses, including educational facilities. The purpose of this study is to find out how the role of BPBD Bantul Regency in disaster management in schools so far and to know and see how the Disaster Safe Education Unit program in Bantul Regency is running. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The results obtained are that the BPBD within the scope of the school plays a role in educating children to have a more disaster preparedness attitude, helping facilitate school needs, and introducing disaster education from an early age. The SPAB program is carried out to build resilience in dealing with disasters by school members, one of whose efforts is to provide material about disasters. BPBD encourages schools in Bantul Regency to incorporate disaster material into their learning and extracurricular.

Abstract

Moral intelligence is the ability to differentiate between right and wrong, create exact choices, and behave ethically according to applicable norms and rules. This development is purposed to produce a moral intelligence inventory. This method applies Borg and Gall development model. The population of this research is students of junior high schools in Malang. Indeed, the sampling is decided through cluster random sampling, wherein 300 students were selected as the research sample. The data are analyzed using Product Moment Pearson analysis, Alpha Cronbach, normality test, and factor analysis. This development draws on a moral intelligence inventory product for junior high school students in Malang, which consists of 45 statement items. These met the criteria of moral intelligence inventory, validity test, and reliability test on a high scale with a 0.907 coefficient. Future research is suggested to improve moral intelligence inventory for elementary, senior high school, and vocational school students. They considered that these levels' development, age maturity, and learning process differ from junior high school. Additionally, the following researchers are expected to employ other theories that discuss moral intelligence to assist students in finding out their moral intelligence level. Keywords: Moral intelligence, vocational school, students.

Abstract

This research examines the influence of peer groups in determining student career life. By using a quantitative approach, we aim to investigate the role of peer groups in Generation Z’s career exploration to respond to work transitions. The subjects of this study were 72 vocational high school students. Data collection was carried out using the Peer Group and Career Exploration scales which were developed by adapting the Likert scale. Our analysis results suggested that peer groups carry 57 percent effects on the participants’ career exploration of students. In addition, the results of the Pearson correlation test also showed a 0.755 correlation coefficient between the peer group and career exploration, indicating a strong correlation between the peer group and career exploration. Therefore, the higher peer group support increases the students’ career exploration abilities and vice versa. The influence of the peer group on career exploration ability is classified into a strong category.

Abstract

Adolescent behavioural and substance-related addictive tendencies have become an increasing concern due to their potential impact on mental well-being and academic performance. However, research on the psychosocial contexts associated with these tendencies has been limited, especially from a gender perspective. This study aimed to investigate gender-related differences in self-reported addiction symptoms and related psychosocial triggers among adolescents. A quantitative comparative design was used, involving 92 high school students in East Java. Data were collected using a self-administered screening questionnaire comprising 12 items across four dimensions: psychological stress, family pressure, social pressure, and social media influence. Descriptive statistics and independent samples t-tests were conducted using SPSS Statistics. Descriptively, participants reported the highest mean media influence scores. Female respondents reported slightly higher mean values on several dimensions; however, no statistically significant gender differences were found in overall addiction symptom scores or across psychosocial trigger dimensions. Effect size estimates indicated small differences between groups. These findings suggest that psychosocial addiction triggers are generally comparable across genders within this sample. The results should be interpreted with caution and are intended to offer descriptive insights rather than causal conclusions. Limitations include reliance on self-reported measures, a modest sample size, and a cross-sectional design. Future research should utilise validated instruments and larger samples to further explore the psychosocial mechanisms underlying adolescent addiction-related behaviours.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of career guidance and counseling in high schools using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The authors reviewed 26 papers that met the exclusion criteria related to career guidance. Among these, 10 papers were selected based on inclusion criteria relevant to career guidance and counseling in secondary schools during the period 2014-2024. This study aims to identify trends, approaches, and interventions that effectively prepare students for career challenges. The results show that integrating digital technology, culture-based approaches, and hands-on field experience is the primary strategy for improving students' career readiness. However, challenges such as limited resources, gaps in access to technology, and a lack of training for supervisors remain obstacles to implementation. Therefore, cross-sector collaboration is considered essential to create a career guidance system that is adaptive, inclusive, and responsive to global demands. Keywords: career guidance, high school, systematic literature review, digital technology, local culture

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the structural validity of the Indonesian version of the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS) using Rasch Model analysis. While STRS has been validated in several countries, validation in the Indonesian context with a large sample and using Rasch analysis remains limited. The data for this study involved 1,927 junior and senior high school students in Indonesia. The analysis technique used was the Rasch Model with Winsteps, assessing unidimensionality, local dependency, misfit items, and differential item functioning (DIF). The results indicate that STRS-ID demonstrates excellent reliability, with person reliability (0.96), item reliability (0.99), and a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.97. Unidimensionality was achieved with 57.7% of the raw variance explained. However, several misfit items were identified, with ZSTD values falling outside the range of -2.0 to +2.0, as well as DIF on some items by gender, age, and region. This study suggests that revisions are needed for problematic items to improve the measurement accuracy and effectiveness of STRS-ID in the Indonesian context. The contribution of this research lies in providing a psychometrically valid tool for measuring the student-teacher relationship in Indonesia and offering recommendations for refining items that do not meet the expected thresholds. Keywords: DIF, rasch model, relationship scale, reliability, unidimensionality, structural validity, student-teacher misfit items
