Abstract

This research was motivated by the increasing incidence of cheating behavior among students, particularly at State Senior High School at Tasikmalaya City, which reflects a low awareness of academic integrity. Cheating behavior can be influenced by various factors, such as academic pressure, peer influence, low self-confidence, weak supervision, and a lack of ethical reinforcement within the school environment. The purpose of this study was to provide a general description of students’ cheating behavior in terms of rationalization, pressure, and opportunity.This study employed a descriptive quantitative method using a questionnaire as the data collection instrument. The results showed that most students at Tasikmalaya City demonstrated a moderate level of cheating behavior. Students in the moderate category tended to rationalize their actions as a response to academic pressure, while those in the high category exhibited openness to cheating opportunities without considering ethical aspects. On the other hand, students in the low category demonstrated awareness of the importance of academic honesty. A total of 333 students participated in this study. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for schools—especially for guidance and counseling services—in designing preventive and intervention strategies to address cheating behavior that threatens academic integrity and educational quality

Abstract

Grief is an emotional experience that arises from significant loss and can affect the psychological well-being of adolescents, particularly those living in orphanages. In this context, mental toughness serves as a protective factor that plays an important role in helping adolescents manage emotional stress and adapt to challenging situations. This study aims to analyze the correlation between grief levels measured using the Prolonged Grief Disorder Revised (PGD-R13) and mental toughness measured using the Mental Toughness Scale (SKM-24) among orphanage adolescents. The study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The findings indicate that a portion of the adolescents fell into the normal grief category, while others showed symptoms of syndromal grief and prolonged grief. Regarding mental toughness, most adolescents were in the moderate category, although a significant proportion scored low on the control and confidence dimensions. Correlation analysis revealed a negative relationship between grief levels and mental toughness, indicating that the higher the grief symptoms experienced by the adolescents, the lower their level of mental toughness. These findings suggest that experiences of loss and instability in caregiving environments influence adolescents’ ability to manage psychological distress and maintain adaptive functioning. This study highlights the importance of interventions focused on strengthening emotion regulation, enhancing self-confidence, and providing psychological support to help orphanage adolescents cope with grief while improving their mental toughness.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of counseling media in improving school guidance and counseling services at SMAN 13 Garut, Indonesia. A school-based action research design was employed involving 20 students and two school counselors across a baseline assessment and two intervention cycles. The intervention integrated interactive presentations, short counseling videos, digital counseling information materials, electronic feedback forms, and interactive worksheets into counselor-led services. Data were collected using the Counseling Service Effectiveness Scale, observation sheets, student reflections, and counselor reflective journals. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Friedman test, repeated-measures analysis of variance, and effect-size estimation, while qualitative data were analyzed thematically and integrated with quantitative findings. The mean effectiveness score increased from 59.50 at baseline to 70.10 after Cycle I and 83.10 after Cycle II. The Friedman test indicated a significant difference across the three measurement points, χ²(2) = 40.00, p < .001. The repeated-measures ANOVA similarly demonstrated a significant change over time, F(2, 38) = 8,472.38, p < .001. Improvements were observed across accessibility, engagement, relevance, communication, service utilization, satisfaction, and perceived benefits, with student engagement showing the largest gain. The findings suggest that counseling media can strengthen school counseling services when systematically integrated with reflective, interactive, and counselor-led practices.

Abstract

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) contribute significantly to the development of students' morality, social skills, and emotional characteristics through institutional leadership, educational policies, religious practices, and character development programs. Forgiveness, as a character trait, is often viewed as an individual psychological characteristic. This cross-sectional quantitative study not only explored patterns of forgiveness with respect to participants' gender among the santri but also assessed the quality of a measurement tool, an Indonesian version of the Enright Forgiveness Inventory, using the Rasch model. The participants were 303 santri from pesantren in Java, Indonesia, comprising 87 males and 216 females, with a mean age of 15.18 years. The Enright Forgiveness Inventory was first translated from English into Indonesian and then back-translated into English. In addition, the process of cultural adaptation was carried out to ensure the inventory would be well suited to the Indonesian culture. Finally, pilot testing was also conducted. The data were analysed using Winsteps version 5.1.5. The results showed a person reliability coefficient of 0.83, item reliability of 0.99, Cronbach’s alpha of 0.84, and a person separation index of 2.22. The Rasch measures explained 47.5% of the raw variance. Item difficulty ranged from +4.67 logits for the most difficult item to −1.33 logits for the easiest item, indicating that the inventory covered different levels of the forgiveness construct. The patterns of the person measures were descriptive. Female santri tended to demonstrate higher levels of forgiveness than male santri. These findings support the use of the Indonesian Enright Forgiveness Inventory within a Rasch measurement framework for evaluating character education outcomes. They also give insights into the development of gender-sensitive character education management in the Islamic pesantren system.

Abstract

This study explored students' emotional well-being using a qualitative phenomenological approach. Three participants were selected through purposive sampling based on emotional experiences that had significantly influenced their lives. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation and analyzed using thematic phenomenological analysis. The findings showed that emotional well-being developed through self-acceptance, positive self-evaluation, gratitude, life satisfaction, emotional regulation, autonomy, purpose in life, and supportive social relationships. Initially, participants experienced sadness, disappointment, confusion, low self-confidence, and social pressure. However, through self-reflection, self-compassion, and support from family, peers, and the school environment, they gradually adapted and achieved greater psychological stability. The results indicate that emotional well-being is a dynamic process shaped by subjective experiences, meaning-making, and social support, which together promote resilience and adaptive psychological growth among students

Abstract

Social withdrawal during adolescence is a behavior characterized by a tendency to limit social interactions, avoid engagement with peers, and prefer individual activities. This condition warrants attention because it can hinder students’ social and emotional development and their adjustment to the school environment. This study aims to describe the level of social withdrawal among eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Wanaraja, identify differences based on gender, and formulate implications of the research findings for guidance and counseling services. The study used a quantitative approach with a descriptive design. The study population consisted of 451 eighth-grade students, with 199 students selected as the sample through incidental sampling. Data were collected using a social withdrawal instrument and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Mann–Whitney U test. The results showed that students’ social withdrawal scores ranged from 24 to 120, with a mean of 72 and a standard deviation of 12. A total of 141 students (71%) fell into the moderate category, 57 students (29%) fell into the low category, and 1 student fell into the high category. By aspect, “nonfearful” accounted for 55%, while “dysregulation” accounted for 54%; both fell into the moderate category. Analysis by gender revealed a significant difference between male and female students (p = 0.009). These findings indicate the importance of group counseling services focused on developing social skills, emotional regulation, self-confidence, and the ability to build interpersonal relationships.
