Abstract

It has been a long debate that politicians should not be involved in any organizations which has a primary purpose to educate civil society. Indonesia student regiment (Menwa) is an example of the organization which functions as a vessel for Indonesian students to encourage engagement in the field of national defense and tri-dharma, a responsibility to give contributions while students in university. However, for over 6 years, Menwa has been led by a politician who also becomes an active board in a political party. Considering the basic function of Menwa, ethically Menwa should be led by a professional without any political interest to keep maintaining the purity of the purpose. Despite its negative impact, there is also a positive consequence. Politician who becomes a leader in the organization can share political knowledge and value to the members to become active citizens, particularly enhance the political participation of its members. This study aims to identify a relationship between supporting politician as the leader and three aspects of psychological orientation towards politics (POTP). Result shows that members who support the leader (politician) tend to have higher scores in political efficacy (PE) and political interest (PK), two fundamental variables which are needed in democratic country than the other groups.

Abstract

For over 18 years, Indonesia has undergone democracy in every aspect of government decision making. After new order (orde baru) regime fell, Indonesia has changed several regulations to implement democratic principle, such as direct elections for Presidential; Gubernatorial and also local leaders. However, there still few challenges faced by Indonesia. One of those challenges is related to human behavior, which is political participation. In democratic country, one of the primary requirements is voluntarily active participation. Voluntarily means an action without any pressure. Without voluntarily act on participation, a country cannot be listed as democratic country. As an attempt to predict voluntarily participation on politics, psychology has came up with the concept of psychological orientation on politics which represented by three dimensions, political efficacy; political interest and political knowledge. However, different political situation and system among countries are the reason why there is no universal measurement of psychological orientation towards politics. This study aims to construct an instrument as an attempt to measure psychological orientation towards politics in Indonesian context. As an attempt to produce the best items and theoretical model, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is applied to examine the contribution of each item towards dimensions. CFA analysis finally generates 21 final items for Psychological Orientation towards Politics Scale that can be applied in Indonesian context.
