Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explain how Jeffery Dahmer's defense mechanism is portrayed in My Friend Dahmer (2017) movie and analyze its effects on his character. This research uses qualitative content analysis research with a psychoanalytic approach. The result of this study indicates four types of defense mechanisms exhibited by Jeffrey Dahmer. Denial was evident as Dahmer downplayed disturbing actions, leading to increased social disconnection. Projection, showcased through dramatic performances, resulted in strained relationships and discomfort from peers. Displacement, expressed through destructive actions on preserving dead animals, generated discomfort, and disgust from those around him. Isolation, depicted in sneaking a sip of his dad's scotch and excessive alcohol consumption, emphasized Dahmer's difficulty in connecting with others. These defense mechanisms collectively contributed to negative effects, including heightened social disconnection, strained relationships, and an escalating pattern of isolation in Dahmer's life. This research is anticipated to enhance understanding of defense mechanism portrayed in My Friend Dahmer (2017) movie and aims to raise public awareness by examining Jeffery Dahmer's defense mechanism in the same film.

Abstract

The current study examined students perspectives on the use of one of the regional learning management systems (LMS), E-Belajar (hereafter EB), at two Islamic boarding schools in Aceh, Indonesia. Fifty EFL Islamic boarding school students agreed to participate in this study. This study used a mixed method design, combining surveys and interviews. The data from the questionnaire was analysed quantitatively. Meanwhile, thematic analysis was performed on the interview data. The results revealed both good and negative attitudes of EB in ELT. Positive replies indicate that EB improved English comprehension and promoted autonomous learning, assisted students in completing English tasks on time by using the alert feature as a reminder, developed enjoyable and engaging learning activities using videos and online games, and encouraged students confidence in expressing ideas. However, negative voices highlighted the teachers failure to advise students on how to use EB properly, resulting in incorrect task submission. Students also preferred in person learning, and students had trouble communicating effectively. Students further pointed out that EB did not enhance listening skill, reading skill, speaking skill, writing skill, or grammar understanding significantly; only few students believed that EB helped promote English language skills, indicating that further efforts through EB was required. Students were also unable to access certain EB services, such as e-counselling and e-monitoring. Furthermore, dormitories have limited access to the internet. These circumstances became another drawback for students.
