Abstract

Emerging adulthood is a period of transition to early adulthood characterized by unstable conditions due to changes in many aspects of life. Psychological skills are needed that can help emerging adults face future challenges. This study aims to see the impact of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in improving subjective well-being and emotion regulation in emerging adults. The participants of this study consisted of eight persons. The criteria for participants in this study are individuals aged 17-19 years who did not show indications of anxiety, depression and stress disorders. The selection of these non-clinical criteria is intended so that healthy individuals can achieve better psychological conditions and as a preventive effort to avoid psychological disorders. The measuring instruments used in this study are the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) and The Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) Scale. The data analysis method used is paired sample t-test to measure the difference in the average score in the group before and after the intervention. The results of the analysis proved that there was a significant increase in subjective well-being scores between before and after the intervention by increasing the life satisfaction. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in emotion suppression scores, however there was a decrease in the use of expression suppression strategies in regulating emotions. The results also show there is a decrease in the use of cognitive reappraisal strategies in regulating emotions between before and after the intervention, but the decrease is not significant. This study provides implications for counseling practice with ACT based interventions to provide more skills in observing and defusion technique in regulating emotions so that ACT is expected to improve individuals’ emotion regulation abilities.

Abstract

Compassion Fatigue (CF) often occurs among violence service workers, who face victims of violence daily, making them vulnerable to emotional exhaustion, decreased empathy, and burnout. This phenomenon not only affects their personal quality of life but also has the potential to reduce the quality of service they provide. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a digital intervention using the Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) approach in reducing compassion fatigue among violence case service workers. The research design is a randomized controlled pilot study with a total of 25 participants randomly divided into two groups: intervention (n=12) and wait-list control (n=13). The intervention was conducted over six sessions across six weeks, combining Zoom sessions, self-paced materials accessed via a website, and a WhatsApp group. CF was measured using the Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQol-V), mindfulness using the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), and self-compassion using the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS), which has been adapted into Indonesian. The study results showed that the MSC intervention significantly reduced CF in the intervention group compared to the control group. Specifically, CF scores in the intervention group decreased from a pre-test mean of 57.17 to a post-test mean of 48.17, t(11) = 3.270, p = .007, indicating a statistically significant improvement. Meanwhile, the control group did not experience a significant change (p = .662). Between-group analysis at post-test confirmed a significant difference favoring the intervention group, t = -2.573, p = .017. In addition to the reduction in CF, mindfulness scores significantly increased in the intervention group from 56.67 to 61.92 (p = .009), and the common humanity subscale of self-compassion showed a notable improvement (p = .031). These results suggest that the digital MSC program effectively enhanced emotional resilience and mitigated compassion fatigue symptoms among trauma-exposed service providers. Qualitative feedback from participants indicated significant benefits from social support during the sessions and the accessibility of materials through the website. MSC intervention is effective in improving the psychological well-being of violence case service workers, thus the widespread implementation of the MSC program in this work environment is highly recommended to enhance mental health and service quality.
