Abstract

Compulsive buying is a shopping behavior that is repeated and has a strong urge to shop which is done as a diversion from negative feelings, such as stress and anxiety. Compulsive buying can be influenced by the social environment, where a person will behave following the expectations of others, the presence of pressure, or what is often called conformity. This study aims to determine the relationship between conformity and compulsive buying in adolescents. The approach used is a quantitative approach with the type of correlational research. The measuring instrument in this study uses conformity scale adaptation and compulsive buying scale adaptation. Respondents in this study were teenagers aged 18-24 years totaling 399 teenagers living in the city of Kupang. The results of hypothesis testing using the Spearman correlation technique obtained a correlation coefficient of 0.208 with a significance level of 0.000 (p <0.05). This means that H0 is accepted, that is, there is a positive and significant relationship between conformity and compulsive buying in adolescents in Kupang City.

Abstract

Bullying remains a significant issue within educational environments due to its potential impact on students' psychological well-being and mental health. This study aimed to examine the effect of Bullying on the mental health of students at SMA Negeri 6 Kupang City. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design was employed. The study involved 88 students selected using a convenience sampling technique from a population of 1,094 students. Data were collected using the Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire (OBVQ) to measure Bullying and the Mental Health Inventory-18 (MHI-18) to assess mental health. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression. The results indicated that the average Bullying score was 30.76, while the average mental health score was 55.20. Regression analysis revealed a negative relationship between Bullying and mental health (β = -0.200), indicating that higher levels of Bullying tended to be associated with lower mental health scores. However, the relationship was not statistically significant (p = 0.062 > 0.05). The coefficient of determination (R² = 0.040) showed that Bullying explained only 4% of the variance in students’ mental health. These findings suggest that although Bullying tends to negatively affect mental health, other factors play a more substantial role in determining adolescents' mental health conditions.

Abstract

This study aims to provide an overview of the stress experienced by thesis supervisors in the Psychology Study Program, Faculty of Public Health, Universitas Nusa Cendana. The research background stems from the increasing academic workload, the dynamics of interactions with students, and institutional demands that may affect supervisors’ psychological well-being and the quality of academic guidance. The study focuses on identifying the sources of stress, the stress responses that emerge, and the factors that either strengthen or weaken the presence of stress. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive qualitative approach, using in-depth interviews with three thesis supervisors selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive model of qualitative data analysis. The findings indicate that the supervision process generates both positive and negative stress responses. The main sources of stress include students who show limited progress, poorly completed revisions, and uncooperative co-supervisors. Additional stress-enhancing factors include pressure from students’ families, the use of AI in thesis writing, and the impacts of the Merdeka Student Exchange Program. These findings highlight the importance of institutional support, effective workload management, and the use of adaptive coping strategies to maintain supervisors’ psychological well-being and ensure the quality of academic supervision. ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran mengenai stres yang dialami oleh dosen pembimbing skripsi di Program Studi Psikologi, Fakultas Kesehatan Masyarakat, Universitas Nusa Cendana. Latar belakang penelitian berangkat dari meningkatnya beban kerja akademik, dinamika interaksi antara dosen dan mahasiswa, serta tuntutan institusional yang berpotensi memengaruhi kesejahteraan psikologis dan kualitas pembimbingan akademik. Fokus penelitian diarahkan untuk mengidentifikasi sumber stres, respons stres yang muncul, serta faktor-faktor yang dapat memperkuat atau memperlemah munculnya stres tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif, melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap tiga dosen pembimbing yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan model analisis data interaktif Miles dan Huberman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa proses pembimbingan memunculkan respons stres positif maupun negatif. Sumber stres utama meliputi mahasiswa yang tidak menunjukkan progres, revisi yang dikerjakan secara kurang maksimal, serta rekan pembimbing yang kurang kooperatif. Faktor-faktor eksternal yang memperkuat stres antara lain tekanan dari keluarga mahasiswa, penggunaan AI dalam penulisan skripsi, serta dampak dari Program Pertukaran Mahasiswa Merdeka. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya dukungan institusional, pengelolaan beban kerja yang efektif, serta penggunaan strategi coping yang adaptif untuk menjaga kesehatan psikologis dosen dan memastikan kualitas pembimbingan akademik tetap optimal.

Abstract

Job stress is a common problem experienced by salespeople due to the demands of achieving targets, high workloads, and dynamic working conditions. This condition has the potential to affect the physical, psychological, and behavioral health of salespeople, thus impacting their performance and well-being. This study aims to describe and analyze the experiences of job stress experienced by salespeople, the factors causing stress, and its impact on daily work activities. The focus of the study is directed at physiological, psychological, and behavioral aspects in response to job stress. This study uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews with purposively selected informants, accompanied by observation and documentation as supporting data. The data analysis process was carried out through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon under study. The research results show that work stress causes physical impacts such as fatigue, body aches, and minor health problems; psychological impacts such as anxiety, emotional instability, and decreased work motivation; and behavioral impacts seen in decreased concentration and work effectiveness. The main factors causing stress include pressure from sales targets, excessive workload, and limited rest time. The study's conclusions confirm that work stress in salespeople is multidimensional and requires organizational attention through workload management, adequate work support, and strategies to improve employee well-being.
