Abstract

This study highlights mental health as a global health challenge that requires serious attention, especially among students. The main objective is to examine the relationship between Mental Health Knowledge and Help-Seeking Behavior among psychology students at Nusa Cendana University. Using a quantitative approach, this research employs proportional sampling and two measurement scales: the Adolescents' Mental Health Knowledge Questionnaire to assess mental health knowledge, and the General Help-Seeking Questionnaire to evaluate help-seeking behavior. The data analysis method used is Pearson's product-moment correlation, with the aid of Microsoft Excel and IBM SPSS Statistic 26 software. The results indicate a significant relationship between mental health knowledge and help-seeking behavior, as evidenced by a significance value of 0.000 (below 0.05). The correlation between the two variables is 0.435, which indicates a moderate and positive correlation. This means that the lower the mental health knowledge, the lower the help-seeking behavior. The study emphasizes the importance of students' proactive role in increasing their awareness of mental health. Students are encouraged to seek information from credible sources, such as books, scientific articles, seminars, and training sessions. Additionally, they are advised to engage in discussions with lecturers or supervisors, as well as participate in mental health-related organizations to broaden their knowledge. Sharing knowledge through discussions with peers is also expected to help strengthen their understanding of mental health.

Abstract

This study explores the theoretical framework of social support and resilience among survivors of the Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcanic eruption. Given the psychological and emotional challenges faced by survivors in the aftermath of a disaster, social support plays a vital role in recovery. The proposed hypothesis suggests that stronger social support from sources such as family, friends, and the community enhances resilience. A quantitative method was employed through surveys to assess both the level of social support received and the strength of the survivors. The results indicate a positive correlation between social support and resilience; survivors who received greater support demonstrated higher levels of resilience. These findings underscore the significance of community-based support systems in facilitating individuals' recovery from traumatic experiences and rebuilding their lives after natural disasters.

Abstract

Indonesia, as an agrarian country, is highly dependent on the agricultural sector, including in East Nusa Tenggara Province, which is dominated by dryland areas and prone to crop failure. The impact is not only economic but also psychological, such as stress and depression. Nevertheless, some farmers remain able to survive, demonstrating resilience. This study aims to describe the resilience and adaptive strategies of farmers in dryland areas using a qualitative phenomenological approach through in-depth interviews. The results show that resilience is shaped by family responsibility, land ownership, positive mindset, spiritual beliefs, self-confidence, and dependence on farming. Resilient farmers can manage emotions, think optimistically, and develop adaptive strategies. These findings are expected to serve as a foundation for policies to support the resilience of farmers in drought-prone areas.
