Abstract

This study, entitled Harriet Kilpatrick’s Search for Happiness in Emily Henry’s Happy Place, explores the main character’s journeyto personal happiness using a psychological approach, specifically Martin Seligman’s PERMA theory. The objective is to examine the causes and effects behind Harriet Kilpatrick’s search for happiness. As a perfectionist and aspiring surgeon, Harriet’s emotional conflict, shaped by her unresolved relationship with Wyn, plays a central role in her internal struggle. The problem statements of this study are: (1) What causes Harriet Kilpatrick’s search for happiness in Happy Place? and (2) What is the effect of Harriet Kilpatrick's search for happiness? Using a qualitative method, the analysis is presented descriptively to explore Harriet’s emotional conflict. The findings reveal that although Harriet initially avoids vulnerability, her journey eventually leads her to fulfill all five elements of happiness within the PERMA model: Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment. By confronting her past and rebuilding meaningful relationships, Harriet achieves a more authentic and lasting sense of personal happiness.

Abstract

This research explores the multidimensional process of personal transformation experienced by the protagonist, Po, in Kung Fu Panda 3 by Tracey West. The study aims to examine Po’s internal development by focusing on his identity struggle, emotional maturation, and spiritual awakening as he transitions from a self-doubting warrior to a fully realised leader. Employing a qualitative research method, this study conducts a close reading and thematic analysis of the novel to uncover the psychological layers of Po’s transformation. The research highlights that Po’s evolution is not merely defined by physical prowess or heroic feats, but is deeply rooted in his internal reconciliation and personal growth. The findings reveal that Po’s personal transformation unfolds through three primary dimensions: psychological, emotional, and spiritual. Psychologically, Po confronts an identity crisis sparked by his sudden role as a teacher and the discovery of his biological father. His internal struggle between who he thinks he should be and who he authentically is forms the core of his psychological fragmentation. Emotionally, Po grapples with loyalty and guilt as he navigates his relationships with both his adoptive father, Mr. Ping, and his biological father, Li Shan. These emotional challenges push Po toward a deeper sense of empathy, emotional regulation, and maturity. Spiritually, Po’s journey culminates in his mastery of chi, a symbolic act of inner harmony and self-acceptance, reflecting his attainment of a fully integrated self. Keywords: Emotional Growth, Identity Crisis, Personal Transformation, Self-Acceptance, Spiritual Awakening

The analysis uses literary theory sociology. The primary data used is a novel, A Thousand Splendid Suns. This research uses qualitative descriptive research. Descriptive research involves collecting novels and answering questions about the complications consistent with the problem statement. As a result, internal causes that occur in A Thousand Splendid Suns are low education and gender inequality. The external cause is due to the patriarchal system. Then, the positive effect of social inequality on Mariam is that she can be patient and tough. At the same time, the negative effect is that she often gets violence and oppression. Laila’s positive effect is that she becomes a brave woman who does not give up easily. The negative effect is that Laila often experiences violence and oppression. The social type of inequality in A Thousand Splendid Suns is the Existential type, meaning the unequal recognition of the human individual as a person. The findings from this analysis can help us understand more about the patriarchal system and make Laila a woman who is even more courageous in voicing rights related to gender equality, especially women’s rights.

The analysis shows the forms of totalitarianism found are terror, absolute control, surveillance, and monopolizing information. The effects of totalitarianism found are loss of trust, intolerance, loss of identity, fear and anxiety, loneliness and isolation, emptiness, trauma and depression. Most of the people calmly accept the reality of the loss of memories, but some fight back. The characters' resistance to totalitarianism found are forming groups, escaping, and making a hiding place. The writer concludes that the Memory Police as a totalitarian government body uses their repressive power to impose forgetfulness and create an oppressive atmosphere. Because of their repressive power, there are many negative effects on the islanders.

Abstract

This research aims to analyse Matthew's fear as a move toward individuation in Lisa Thompson's novel The Goldfish Boy by examining how fear shapes his behavior and contributes to Matthew's journey toward individuation. His fear is related to his guilt over his baby brother's death, and an extreme fear of germs and social interaction forms the main psychological conflicts that curtail his everyday life. A psychological approach based on Carl Jung’s theory of individuation is used in this study to investigate how Matthew’s fears reveal deeper unconscious elements, including his persona, anima/animus, and the shadow that is a suppressed guilt and unresolved trauma, and how these elements relate to the individuation process, especially the stages that guide Matthew toward discovering his true self. This qualitative-descriptive research identifies dialogues, narrative descriptions, and events that reflect the psychological struggle of Matthew through close reading of the novel. The findings demonstrate that fear serves both as an obstacle and as a catalyst in Matthew’s development. His guilt-driven fear leads him to isolation, compulsive cleaning, and avoidance of social interaction, showing how fear can consume an individual and result in emotional suffering. However, Teddy Dawson’s disappearance becomes a turning point that forces Matthew to confront his fears, break his avoidance patterns, and gradually integrate the repressed parts of himself. When faced rather than avoided, Matthew’s fears transform into a driving force that enables personal growth, deeper self-understanding, and the early stages of individuation, helping him move toward self-awareness, emotional balance, and a more integrated sense of identity.
