Abstract

This study aims to explore the personality development of the main character in 172 Days by Nadzira Shafa through the lens of psychological theory. Using a qualitative approach, the research applies psychological frameworks such as Erikson’s psychosocial development theory, Freud’s theory of personality, and Maslow’s hierarchy of needs to analyze the protagonist, Alya, as she navigates significant internal conflicts and undergoes emotional and behavioral transformations. Data were collected through Systematic Literature Review (SLR), following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, which allowed for a comprehensive selection and analysis of relevant psychological and literary studies. The results show that Alya's journey from identity confusion to self-actualization is shaped by the dynamic interplay between societal expectations and her personal desires. This study contributes to the field of literary psychology by demonstrating how psychological theories can be effectively applied to literary character analysis, offering insights into the psychological development of characters in literature. The findings have implications for the broader understanding of character development in literary studies and provide a framework for analyzing complex psychological narratives in fiction.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the relationship between the form of the signifier and signified and to interpret the signs found in each scene and dialogue in the film Jilbab Traveler: Love Sparks in Korea by Asma Nadia using Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotic theory. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach. The data collection techniques used are repeated observation, note-taking, and documentation by capturing several images from scenes in the film and analyzing the meanings contained within them. The data analysis techniques include data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study show that there are 31 scene and dialogue data containing signs in the film. A total of 148 data consisting of signifiers and signifieds were identified, involving Indonesian, English, and Korean languages. The findings indicate that the relationship between signifiers and signifieds, as well as the dialogues in the film Jilbab Traveler: Love Sparks in Korea by Asma Nadia, does not merely function to construct the storyline but also represents moral, social, religious, and cultural values. Therefore, this film contains various symbolic meanings that reflect the identity of Muslim women, cultural interactions, and religious values in a global context.
