Abstract

Protective and risk factors are important issues to consider to reduce the vulnerability of adolescents to drug abuse. This study aims to determine the vulnerability to drug abuse in terms of gender differences in high-risk areas, based on statistics/data from the National Anti Narcotics Agency of Malaysia, namely in Sabak Bernam, Dungun, Johor Bahru, and Kuala Kedah. A survey method was employed, with 213 adolescents (52.1% male, 47.9% female) who met the inclusion criteria completing the questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of five aspects, namely demographic profile, interpersonal conflict, negative emotions, social support, and mental health. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive and inferential statistics. The results of the analysis show that there was no significant difference in aspects of interpersonal conflict (t=-0.556, p > .05), negative emotions (t=0.131, p>.05), or mental health by gender (t=-0.898, p > .05). However, there was a significant difference in the aspect of social support (t=-2.046, p <.05), with female subjects (37.13) showing a higher mean score than males (34.83). The findings of the study indicate that it is very important to understand the relevant factors so that drug abuse can be identified and prevented early on.

Abstract

Psychological resources are crucial in enhancing individual potential, yet few studies have focused on positive psychological variables among job seekers. Therefore, the objective of this study is to examine the influence of psychological capital on flourishing, with grit as a mediator. A cross-sectional survey method was employed, with data collected using questionnaires involving 226 participants. Three instruments were included in the questionnaire: the Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ), the Flourishing Scale, and the Short Grit Scale. The data were analyzed using bootstrapping mediation analysis via PROCESS software. The results show that all the psychological capital dimensions (hope, efficacy, resilience, and optimism) significantly influenced grit, with β ranging from .21 to .57 (p <.000), and also significantly influenced flourishing, with β ranging from .23 to .40 (p <.000). Grit also significantly mediated the psychological capital dimensions and flourishing. These findings indicate that psychological capital, grit and flourishing are important in developing individuals’ potential. It is hoped that they will be useful in designing employability training which incorporates positive psychology resources as intervention modules to assist graduates seeking job opportunities.
