Abstract

This study aims to measure the effectiveness of non-technological working memory interventions in improving the verbal working memory capacity of a third-grade student, who experiences learning difficulties in reading comprehension and maintaining focus in class.The research employed a qualitative approach using a single-case reversal design (A1BA2) over 12 sessions. The intervention focused on enhancing D's phonological loop function through face-to-face, non-digital working memory training exercises, such as the odd one out and listening recall tasks. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with parents and teachers, as well as non-participatory observations in both school and home environments. Data analysis involved comparing pre- and post-intervention performance to identify changes in working memory abilities. The findings indicate that this intervention can enhance verbal working memory capacity, supporting improvements in reading comprehension and focus. This suggests that non-technological, easily implementable interventions can provide a practical solution for enhancing cognitive abilities in children, particularly those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with potential long-term benefits for academic performance.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of career exploration behavior as a mediator of the relationship between social support and career decision self-efficacy (CDSE) among high school students. This study used a cross-sectional study design with a quantitative approach. The participants were in 10th and 11th grade in Jabodetabek High Schools (N = 130). Data were collected using convenience sampling. The instruments used in this research comprised the Career Decision Self-Efficacy-Short Form (CDSE-SF), Adolescent Social Support Scales (ASSS), and Career Exploration Survey (CES). All data were analyzed statistically by descriptive, correlation, and mediation analysis. The results show that career exploration behavior fully mediates the relationship between social support and CDMSE (c = 0.208; p < 0.001). While external support from parents, teachers, and friends is crucial, internal factors are equally essential to help high school students plan their careers effectively. High school students need access to various useful information from their surroundings to actively engage in career exploration and gain the confidence needed to make informed career decisions. In this study, it was found that for students to have career decision self-efficacy, social support and career exploration behavior are needed in high school students.
