Abstract

This study aimed to examine the relationship between self compassion and body dissatisfaction among second year nursing students at the Gorontalo Ministry of Health Polytechnic. The study employed a quantitative correlational design involving nursing students as respondents. Data were collected using a self compassion scale based on Neff’s concept and a body dissatisfaction scale based on Cooper’s framework. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis with the assistance of SPSS version 26. The findings showed that most respondents had moderate levels of self compassion and moderate levels of body dissatisfaction. The Pearson correlation test indicated a significant negative relationship between self compassion and body dissatisfaction, with a correlation coefficient of r equals negative 0.225 and a significance value of p equals 0.05. This finding suggests that students with higher self compassion tend to experience lower body dissatisfaction, whereas students with lower self compassion are more likely to report higher dissatisfaction with their body image. The study highlights the importance of self compassion as a psychological resource that may help nursing students develop healthier body acceptance and reduce negative evaluations of physical appearance. These findings also imply the need for supportive educational and psychological interventions that strengthen self kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness among students who face body image pressures in academic and social environments.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the influence of conformity on group decision making in the Boalemo Police Department. The research employed a quantitative approach using simple linear regression analysis. The participants consisted of 30 members of the Boalemo Police Department selected through total sampling. Data were collected using conformity and group decision-making scales in the form of questionnaires. The results showed a significant positive relationship between conformity and group decision making, with a correlation coefficient of 0.604 and a significance value of p < 0.01. These findings indicate that higher levels of conformity are associated with higher levels of group decision making among members of the Boalemo Police Department. In the organizational context of the police, conformity appears to support consensus building, coordination, and the efficiency of collective decision-making processes. Thus, this study highlights that conformity is an important socio-psychological factor in shaping group decision making within a hierarchical work environment.
