Abstract

Despite the pros and cons, the practice of hypnotherapy is growing in Indonesia. How are the hypnotherapy clients aware about hypnotherapy? Is the process of acceptance in line with the pattern of adoption of the innovation? Theoretically, there are five stages of the process of adoption of an innovation: awareness, interest, evaluation, first-trial, and confirmation. This study was conducted in four major cities in Java. A sequential-explanatory mixed method was applied. There were two stages for this method, quantitative survey and then followed by qualitative study. The conclusion suggested that the acceptance of hypnotherapy by clients depended on its effectiveness in helping them to cope with their problems. The finding also corroborated and slightly added to the five-stages theory of the process of innovation adoption. The most effective communication channel in the process of adopting hypnotherapy was face-to-face and interpersonal, with the hypnotherapy clients as diffusion agents. The most important message in the context of developing the hypnotherapist profession was that hypnotherapy is an evidence-based professional service.

Abstract

The background of this study was the importance of the role of spirituality for students as the young generation. Nowadays, students experience academic stress, reducing academic achievement, reducing motivation, and increasing the risk of dropping out of school. This study was conducted to obtain an overview of the influence of mindfulness and Buddhist religious rituals on students' spirituality. The sample for this study was 106 students at STAB Maitreyawira Pekanbaru, which consisted of 3 batches, namely 2020, 2019, and 2018 batches. The data collection instrument was a closed questionnaire. This study was done quantitatively and analyzed by Pearson correlation test and multiple regression analysis. The results of data analysis showed that the higher the awareness and the higher the Buddhist religious rituals, the higher the spirituality of students at STAB Maitreyawira Pekanbaru and vice versa. This study concluded that students' spirituality could be improved through increased mindfulness and Buddhist religious rituals, either individually (alone) or jointly (together).
