Abstract

Generation Z is entangled in prestige and the FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) phenomenon due to lifestyle and social interactions. Generation Z has a relatively wasteful financial situation that impacts other financial problems, especially as they work in Yogyakarta—one of the poorest cities in Indonesia with the second highest expenditure in Java. This raises concern over their psychological and financial well-being. The urgency of this study lies in the need to understand how internal psychological resources such as gratitude, rooted in cultural values like nrimo ing pandum (Javanese acceptance), can help Generation Z navigate economic pressures and lifestyle demands. Amidst modernization and consumerism, traditional values are at risk of being eroded, making it essential to explore how such values are interpreted and lived today. This study aims to explore the picture of gratitude of Generation Z who work in Yogyakarta in the context of Javanese culture nrimo ing pandum. This study combines phenomenological methodology with a qualitative approach. In-depth interviews and observations were conducted with five Generation Z employees working in Yogyakarta. Thematic analysis is the analysis method used in this study. The results found that Generation Z workers have demonstrated patience and gratitude, but a lack of nrimo (acceptance), due to a reckless attitude shaped by the pursuit of prestige and FOMO-driven consumptive behavior.

Abstract

Marital happiness can be influenced by culture because there are cultural values that play a role in encouraging individual happiness. The purpose of this study is to explore the meaning of marital happiness for Toba Batak couples and determine what factors influence marital happiness for Toba Batak couples. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. This research was conducted in Marindal I village, Patumbak District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra, which was conducted from March to April 2024. This study took four Toba Batak couples. The data collection procedure used in-depth interviews with a semi-structured form. The data analysis technique used was reading the data that had been obtained, organizing the data, and determining the theme. The results found that the meaning of marital happiness for the Toba Batak tribe when having children is increasingly complete with the presence of grandchildren so that they can perfect the lineage. It was also found that the factors that influence marital happiness for the Toba Batak tribe are internal factors consisting of communication and economics, while external factors consist of neighborly harmony and activeness in the community. Each culture influences marital happiness, so the meaning of marital happiness in each region will be different from one another.
