Abstract

Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health problems, with a global prevalence of 301 million cases reported by WHO in 2019. Early adulthood is marked by various life demands that increase vulnerability to psychological problems, including anxiety. One contributing risk factor is childhood experience, particularly the perception of parental conflict. This study aims to examine the relationship between perceived parental conflict during childhood and anxiety disorders in early adulthood. This quantitative correlational study involved 152 early adults aged 18–40 years living in Tangerang who had witnessed parental conflict during childhood. The instruments used were the Children’s Perception of Interparental Conflict (CPIC) scale and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7). Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant positive relationship between perceived parental conflict and anxiety levels in early adulthood.

Abstract

Social anxiety is a common problem among Generation Z, characterized by fear of negative evaluation, difficulty in social interactions, and a tendency to avoid social situations. Social support is believed to help reduce social anxiety by providing a sense of security, acceptance, and emotional support. This study aims to examine the effect of social support on social anxiety among Generation Z in JABODETABEK. Using a quantitative approach with simple linear regression analysis, this study involved 150 respondents selected through incidental sampling. This study used the Social Anxiety Scale for Adolescents (SAS-A) and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) as measuring instruments. The findings of the study showed that social support had a significant negative effect on social anxiety. Among the various sources of support, support from significant others had the strongest impact, at 16.8%, compared to support from friends and family. These findings emphasize the role of significant others in preventing and reducing social anxiety in Generation Z.
