Abstract

Academic anxiety is characterised by the presence of internal thoughts and sentiments of fear and doubt regarding an individual's capacity to successfully complete assignments and examinations with expected results. The Cognitive Behaviour Group Counselling (CBGC) approach is an efficient method that can assist students in addressing these difficulties more effectively. When conducting this study, a quantitative technique was utilised, and a genuine experimental design was utilised. Thirty students from vocational high schools in Mojokerto, Indonesia participated in the study. The sample size was twenty-two students, and they were split evenly between two groups: an experimental group and a control group, each consisting of eleven students. A scale for measuring academic anxiety that was based on Ottens' theory was used to collect data, and it was distributed through Google Forms. A paired sample t-test analysis was utilised in order to carry out the data analysis. When the experimental group was compared to the control group, the results showed that the experimental group saw a considerable drop in degrees of academic anxiety. The results of this study suggest that CBGC is an effective method for lowering academic anxiety among students who are enrolled in vocational colleges.

Abstract

The study examined the socio-demographic profile of the octogenarians in Nigeria from an educational perspective. We adopted a cross-sectional research survey design. All octogenarians in Nigeria constituted the study population. A multi-stage procedure selected a sample of 1,774 individuals. We adopted a snowball sampling approach to select participants until we reached the desired sample size. An adapted version of the World Health Organization's (WHOQOL) questionnaire programmed in the Open Data Kit (ODK) was used for data collection. We analyzed the collected data using frequency counts and simple percentages. The mean age of octogenarians was 83 years. Male-headed households were most common (66.2%) among octogenarians. Vision (8.6%) and mobility (12.1%) issues were the types of disability common to octogenarians in Nigeria. Fewer Nigerian octogenarians are still flourishing and making productive contributions to society, but a greater proportion of them need social and educational supports and physical health needs for better well-being.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of group counseling based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in enhancing self-confidence among junior high school students, using a true experimental pretest-posttest control group design. Two instruments were employed: treatment and measurement. The treatment instrument consisted of a guide for implementing group counseling, while the measurement instrument was a self-confidence inventory. The findings demonstrated that ACT-based group counseling effectively enhances self-confidence among junior high school students. The study provided two recommendations: (i) for guidance and counseling teachers, ACT-based group counseling can be applied to strengthen students’ self-confidence and support their developmental understanding; and (ii) for future researchers, given that ACT-based counseling incorporates six core processes (acceptance, cognitive defusion, being present, self-as-context, values, and committed action). Future studies may explore its effectiveness with additional or alternative techniques.

Abstract

Toxic masculinity is a social construct in patriarchal societies, characterizing male attitudes that dominate and accentuate gender inequality with women in lower positions, influencing detrimental behavioral patterns. This research aims to examine the effectiveness of Rational Emotive Behavior Group Counseling in reducing toxic masculinity behaviors among high school students within the context of patriarchal culture. The study employed an experimental design with a pretest and posttest control group arrangement. From the Toxic masculinity inventory measurements, twelve students with high levels of toxic masculinity characteristics were identified. Subject selection was randomized, with six students in each experimental and control group. Data collected were analyzed using a paired sample T-test, revealing a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). Therefore, the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected, indicating that Rational Emotive Behavior Group Counseling is effective in reducing toxic masculinity behaviors among high school students influenced by patriarchal culture. This research contributes to understanding the effectiveness of group counseling interventions with the Rational Emotive Behavior Group Counseling approach in addressing the impact of toxic masculinity. The implications have the potential to transform student behavior towards gender balance and equality within the patriarchal culture of high school education environments.
