Abstract

The death of a parent profoundly affects a child’s well-being, particularly when caused by homicide committed by a father or the mother’s intimate partner. Research on gender-based killings, or femicide, identifies husbands, boyfriends, and former partners as the most common perpetrators. Yet, children of intimate partner femicide (IPF) victims remain largely invisible in both public discourse and legal protections. This study examines the impacts of IPF on children and evaluates how Indonesia’s legal system supports family recovery, particularly for children who have lost their mothers. Using a qualitative approach, the study draws on literature and an analysis of key Indonesian laws, including the Witness and Victim Protection Act, Criminal Procedure Code, Domestic Violence Elimination Act, Child Protection Act, and Sexual Violence Act. Findings indicate that IPF produces multifaceted harms, including physical and psychological trauma, social challenges, and legal vulnerabilities. Impacts are gendered: girls often assume caregiving roles and mediate between families, while all children experience instability in caregiving, financial insecurity, and increased exposure to trauma. Research on femicide in Indonesia is limited, particularly regarding its effects on children. The study highlights the need for legal reforms to clarify definitions of crime victims and strengthen the rights of family members, ensuring children’s access to comprehensive and sustainable recovery services. Addressing these gaps is crucial for promoting justice and protection for children affected by intimate partner femicide.

Abstract

Women's political representation in Indonesia continues to face gender-based challenges, including social expectations, leadership stereotypes, and pressures related to multiple roles. This study aims to explore how female politicians interpret and respond to these challenges through impression management strategies, and how they develop psychological resilience within a gender-biased political environment. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with six female politicians from various political levels and party backgrounds. The findings reveal that female politicians are aware of the conflicting expectations they face—being expected to appear feminine while simultaneously demonstrating assertiveness as leaders. In response, they employ various impression management strategies such as ingratiation, exemplification, and self-promotion in an adaptive and context-sensitive manner, aligned with conservative and religious sociopolitical settings. Despite emotional pressures stemming from gender stereotypes, they exhibit resilience through social support, emotion regulation, and strong intrinsic motivation. This study highlights that impression management is not merely a tool for maintaining public image but also a means of negotiating gender identity and roles within political spaces. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the psychological dynamics of female leadership and support the development of a more inclusive and gender-equitable political environment.

Abstract

The recovery process has challenges at every stage and requires a supportive and adequate program. The high number of single-use drug users in Indonesia after the COVID-19 pandemic is not supported by adequate rehabilitation services. The negative stigma attached to drug users can also hinder efforts to participate in rehabilitation programs. This study explored the recovery process of drug users without formal rehabilitation program services. The method used is a single instrumental case study with thematic analysis on individuals undergoing a 6-year recovery period. The thematic analysis found that participants progressed through the stages of change theory to achieve recovery. Despite a relapse, the participant reached the final stage. In each phase, there are crucial things that can affect the course of the recovery process. One of them is the family, which has an important role in helping drug users to recover. Further research can be conducted using other methods or approaches, and with participants who face different difficulties or challengesProses pemulihan dari ketergantungan narkoba memiliki tantangan tersendiri di setiap tahapannya, membutuhkan adanya program yang menunjang dan memadai. Namun dengan tingginya pengguna narkoba sekali pakai di Indonesia pasca pandemi covid-19, layanan rehabilitasi saat ini tidak cukup memadai. Stigma negatif yang melekat pada pengguna narkoba juga dapat menghambat upaya untuk mengikuti program rehabilitasi. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan menggali bagaimana proses pemulihan pada pengguna narkoba yang tidak mendapatkan layanan program rehabilitasi formal. Metode yang digunakan adalah single instrumental case study dengan analisis tematik pada individu yang telah menjalani masa pemulihan selama 6 tahun. Dari hasil analisis tematik yang dilakukan di temukan bahwa partisipan mampu melewati fase pemulihan berdasarkan teori stage of change hingga tahap akhir. Meskipun partisipan sempat mengalami kekambuhan namun ia dapat kembali mencapai tahap akhir. Pada setiap fase terdapat hal-hal penting dan krusial yang dapat mempengaruhi keberjalanan proses pemulihan. Salah satunya adalah keluarga yang memiliki peran yang cukup penting pembantu pengguna narkoba untuk pulih. Penelitian lebih lanjut dapat dilakukan dengan metode atau pendekatan yang lain serta pemilihan partisipan  dengan kesulitan atau  tantangan yang berbeda

Abstract

The research sought to find out more about the perceived changes and relationships between sexual activities, sexual satisfaction, and life satisfaction of sexually active Indonesian adults before the pandemic (February 2019 - February 2020) and during the pandemic (March 2020 - June 2020). The research applied a cross-sectional method. An online questionnaire was conducted once in June 2020 to collect the data from 1.006 samples aged 18 to 64. Analysis using paired sample t-test shows a significant decrease due to the COVID-19 pandemic in various sexual activities, including cuddling, non-penetrative sex, masturbation sex, oral sex, and penetrative sex, but not in sexting. The results also show a significant decrease in sexual and life satisfaction due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Regardless of the COVID-19 pandemic, sexual satisfaction, and life satisfaction are positively and significantly correlated in sexually active Indonesian adults. The results of the research indicate that sexual life is still an important aspect, especially when dealing with stressful life events such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into daily life has expanded its role from technical assistance to emotional companionship among young adults. This study aims to explore subjective experiences of emotional intimacy with generative AI chatbots, such as ChatGPT. Employing an interpretive qualitative design and reflexive thematic analysis, semi-structured interviews were conducted with five participants, including university students and early-career professionals. Four primary themes emerged: AI as an emotionally safe space, the attainment of validation and psychological relief, AI’s role as a partner for cognitive reflection, and the critical awareness of its limitations and ethical risks. The findings indicate that while AI facilitates short-term emotion regulation through non-judgmental availability, users maintain a clear distinction between algorithmic empathy and authentic human connection. This research underscores the necessity of emotional digital literacy and suggests that AI should be integrated as a complementary scaffold, rather than a substitute, for professional mental health support and interpersonal relationships.Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh pergeseran fungsi kecerdasan buatan (AI) dari sekadar alat produktivitas menjadi mitra interaksi emosional di kalangan dewasa muda. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengeksplorasi pengalaman subjektif individu dalam membangun keintiman emosional dengan chatbot AI generatif seperti ChatGPT. Dengan menggunakan desain kualitatif interpretatif dan analisis tematik refleksif, wawancara semi-terstruktur dilakukan terhadap lima partisipan yang terdiri atas mahasiswa dan profesional awal karier. Hasil penelitian mengidentifikasi empat tema utama: AI sebagai ruang aman emosional, pencapaian validasi dan kelegaan psikologis, fungsi AI sebagai mitra refleksi kognitif, serta kesadaran kritis terhadap batasan etika dan risiko ketergantungan. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa meskipun AI efektif dalam membantu regulasi emosi jangka pendek, pengguna tetap mempertahankan batasan antara hubungan artifisial dan autentik. Implikasi penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya literasi digital emosional dan integrasi AI sebagai instrumen pendukung, bukan pengganti, dalam layanan kesehatan mental dan pendidikan.
