Abstract

It is often found that students feel they are in the wrong major which leads to feeling confused about choosing their future career. As a result, students think they cannot choose a career that suits their major and end up feeling anxious about their future. This study aims to determine the relationship between future anxiety and student attitudes towards academic majors. This correlational quantitative research involved 150 samples based on purposive sampling with characteristics as active students in university located in East Java, female or male aged 18-25 years. The instruments used were Future Anxiety Scale for future anxiety variables and Attitude toward Specialization Scale for attitude toward academic majors. Based on the Pearson correlation product moment test showed that there was a positive relationship between future anxiety and student attitudes towards academic majors (r = 0,326, p < 0.001) with contribution of 10.6%. The higher the level of future anxiety of students, the more positive student’s attitude towards their academic majors. Implications that refer to the results of this research for students who are feeling anxious about the future so they can respond to their academic majors positively.

Abstract

Covid-19 was causing a drastically changing situation, especially for healthcare workers facing increasing workloads and sudden changes in circumstances. These circumstances force health workers to adapt to these stressful changes. Cognitive flexibility is one of the protective factors for health workers to be capable of processing and coping with stress. This study aims to perceive the contribution of cognitive flexibility to stress to healthcare workers. The research hypothesis is that there is a negative role between cognitive flexibility and stress, which means the higher cognitive flexibility a health worker has, the lower the stress level. This study uses quantitative methods. Using random sampling techniques, data retrieval uses the Cognitive Flexibility Scale (CFS) and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21) questionnaires. The subjects of this study were 55 health workers working at hospitals in Malang, with the professional criteria of doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and midwives. Data analysis uses a simple linear regression test. The results of this study show that cognitive flexibility has a 33.3% effect on reducing stress levels in healthcare workers.   Keywords: cognitive flexibility, covid-19, healthcare workers, mental health, stress
