Abstract

This study describes the objectives of (1) physiological needs, (2) security needs, (3) love and belonging needs, (4) esteem needs, and (5) self-actualization needs of the main characters in the novels Adikku Pahlawanku by Fayanna Ailisha Daviany and Doa Untuk Mama by Najla Nurdiany Putri. The phenomena found in this study indicate that the two main characters, namely Tari and Aisyah, experience a layered process of fulfilling needs, starting from fulfilling basic needs such as food and health to higher psychological needs such as emotional support, appreciation, and self-development. In addition, this study found psychological tension in the form of economic anxiety, physical anxiety, and emotional conflict that affect the process of fulfilling the needs of the main characters, but in the end these needs can be fulfilled through the support of family and social environment. Data collection through the process of reduction, grouping, and interpretation of relevant quotes from both novels based on the categories of physiological needs, security, love and belonging, appreciation, and self-actualization in accordance with Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory. The research findings show that both novels display the dynamics of human needs as a whole. Tari and Aisyah are depicted as child characters capable of building emotional resilience through warm family relationships. This research’s contribution lies in explaining how children’s literature, particularly the novel KKPK, can serve as a medium for understanding the psychological development of child characters and its relevance to the formation of readers’ characters. Furthermore, this research enriches the study of literary psychology by demonstrating that Maslow’s theory can be effectively applied to children’s literary texts as objects of scientific study.

Abstract

This research is predicated on the urgency of the “fatherless” phenomenon in Indonesia and the scarcity of children’s literature that comprehensively represents paternal emotional involvement. This study aims to elucidate the representation of the father-child relationship in the picture book Ayahku Seorang Nelaya by Zunda. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method utilizing a Children’s Literature criticism approach (Peter Hunt’s perspective), integrated with multimodal discourse analysis for visual elements and hermeneutics for textual elements. The findings demonstrate that the father figure is represented in a multidimensional and egalitarian manner. The findings include: (1) a high level of paternal involvement in the domestic sphere; (2) a relationship quality characterized by democratic interaction, communicative engagement, and emotional warmth; (3) parenting and education implemented through role modeling in daily activities integrated with nature; and (4) paternal roles and responsibilities that function not only as a breadwinner but are also fully engaged in fulfilling the child’s psychological and developmental needs. The conclusion asserts that this work presents an ideological construction offering a counter-narrative to the issue of father absence, rendering it relevant as an educational medium for the internalization of fatherhood values within the family.
