Abstract

Adolescence is a critical developmental stage characterized by increased vulnerability to psychological challenges, particularly among individuals from minority ethnic backgrounds. Experiences of discrimination and social exclusion may negatively affect adolescents’ self-esteem and identity development. Therefore, identifying effective interventions to support their psychological well-being is essential. This study aims to explore the role of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) in enhancing self-esteem among adolescents with minority ethnic identities. This study employed a narrative literature review design, analyzing 10 selected articles published between 2012 and 2024. The literature search was conducted using academic databases, including Google Scholar and Sage Journals, with keywords related to MBCT, self-esteem, adolescents, and ethnic minority. The selected studies were analyzed using a thematic analysis approach to identify key patterns and relationships. The findings reveal that self-esteem among minority adolescents is influenced by a complex interaction of developmental factors, ethnic identity, and experiences of discrimination. Discrimination consistently emerges as a significant risk factor, while ethnic identity and supportive environments function as protective factors. MBCT demonstrates potential as an effective intervention by enhancing self-awareness, emotional regulation, and adaptive coping strategies, thereby helping adolescents manage the psychological impact of discrimination. In conclusion, MBCT offers a promising approach to improving self-esteem among adolescents with minority ethnic identities. However, its effectiveness depends on the presence of inclusive and culturally sensitive environments. Future research should focus on context-specific applications, particularly in non-Western settings.

Abstract

Mental health problems among Indonesian high school students may interfere with academic functioning, social adjustment, and overall well-being, yet schools still lack multidimensional instruments that are culturally appropriate for early identification. This study aimed to adapt and validate the Indonesian version of the Counseling Center Assessment of Psychological Symptoms (CCAPS-Indo) for use with high school students. The original CCAPS-62 was translated, back-translated, and reviewed for cultural relevance before psychometric testing. Data were collected from 450 students enrolled in senior high schools and vocational high schools in Jakarta, Indonesia. Construct validity was examined using second-order confirmatory factor analysis, while composite reliability and average variance extracted were used to evaluate reliability and convergent validity. The refined model retained 42 items across eight dimensions. Most model-fit indices indicated acceptable to good fit, including ?2/df, GFI, CFI, TLI, NFI, IFI, RMSEA, and SRMR, although AGFI remained below the preferred threshold. Standardized loading factors for retained items ranged from 0.55 to 0.98, and composite reliability values ranged from 0.66 to 0.91. These findings suggest that the CCAPS-Indo demonstrates acceptable psychometric performance for assessing psychological symptoms among Indonesian high school students. The instrument may therefore be used as a school-based screening tool to support early identification and intervention, although further validation with broader and more diverse samples is still needed
