Abstract

This study aims to describe the multidimensional level of political participation among the people of Bondowoso Regency. Data were collected from 92 respondents who met the criteria of being Bondowoso residents and having participated in political activities, particularly elections. The indicators of political participation examined in this study include trust, awareness, knowledge, and active engagement in political processes. To ensure the reliability and validity of the findings, a previously validated political participation measurement tool was adopted. This instrument was adapted from prior research on political participation in Indonesia, with adjustments made to fit the local context of Bondowoso. Descriptive analysis results indicate that the majority of respondents exhibit low to moderate levels of political trust, while their political knowledge generally falls within the moderate category. The study also reveals that despite having a relatively good level of political awareness, this alone is insufficient to foster more active political participation without strong trust in political institutions. Nevertheless, this study has several limitations, including a relatively small sample size and potential bias in the measurement instruments. Future research is recommended to expand the sample size, develop more robust measurement tools, and consider broader contextual factors to gain deeper insights into the dynamics of political participation and public perceptions of local political processes.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has not only caused physical health concerns but has also led to psychological challenges, including the risk of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study aimed to explore the relationship between perceived social support and PTSD in COVID-19 survivors. A sample of 221 participants was selected, and data were collected using modified Perceived Social Support and PTSD Checklist for DSM-V (PCL-5) scales. The results revealed a significant negative correlation (r = –0.356; p < 0.05) between perceived social support and PTSD, suggesting that higher social support is associated with lower PTSD symptoms. However, the findings are limited to the specific sample used, and future research should consider a more representative sample for broader generalization.

Abstract

In today's Indonesia, organizing a democratic party's general election (election) is commonly referred to as "money politics." A democratic party's political decision should ideally be based on a shared interest in the candidate's vision and goal, or on shared ideology, and carried out in accordance with societal values and conventions. However, money politics has become a common tactic in our elections as a means of gaining voters. This study attempts to discuss this phenomenon through a qualitative approach and a phenomenology study, with the results being a description of the meaning of money and the psychological reasoning behind vote-buying behavior on both sides. The findings show that 'giving', in the informant's opinion, is an alms, affection, and present that should be valued rather than a violation of the law or a negative thing. Second, giving is perceived as something that does not contradict one's or society's values and norms. The pattern of interactions between political candidates and voters in a vertical relationship develops a strong need relationship because the modeling process that results from this practice is done by many people and has been done for years. Third, voters have the resources and opportunities to engage in money politics or vote-buying activities. Where resources support the practice of money politics' long-term viability due to lax law enforcement and private-sector activities.
