Abstract

Music is conventionally perceived as a medium of entertainment and artistic expression. However, among employees, music assumes a broader functional role, supporting productivity and psychological well-being across diverse workplace contexts. This study aimed to investigate the functional role of music among employees experiencing work-related stress and low motivation. A cross-sectional study was administered to 500 employees representing various socioeconomic and educational backgrounds. Participants reported their musical preferences and the perceived psychological impacts of music during different emotional states at work. Data analysis, including word cloud visualization and heatmap modeling, revealed that genres such as Pop and Dangdut dominated across both emotional conditions. However, the functional objectives of music usage differed; employees experiencing stress favored music for emotional balance and familiar comfort, while those facing low motivation preferred music that energized and re-engaged cognitive resources. The findings highlight that music serves adaptive emotional and cognitive regulatory functions, leading to increased productivity, emotional stabilization, and sustained concentration. These results offer practical implications for workplace well-being strategies, emphasizing the potential of personalized auditory environments in enhancing employee resilience and performance.

Abstract

Pesantren increasingly face psychosocial issues such as bullying and harassment, requiring sensitive interventions. Musyrif/musyrifah often serve as first responders but lack formal counseling or Psychological First Aid (PFA) training. This snapshot study examines the feasibility of large language models (LLMs) as simulators for developing counseling communication skills in pesantren contexts. Five LLMs: Gemini, DeepSeek, ChatGPT, Claude, and Meta AI, were tested using a culturally relevant case scenario. Their counseling responses were evaluated through a seven-skill rubric: attending, empathy, reflection, clarification, paraphrasing, summarizing, and nonverbal sensitivity. Five raters independently scored the outputs. Gemini achieved the highest mean (M = 4.89), followed by DeepSeek (M = 4.71) and ChatGPT-5 (M = 4.57). Claude (M = 3.86) and Meta AI (M = 3.20) scored lower, especially in nonverbal sensitivity. The study concludes that advanced LLMs, particularly Gemini and DeepSeek, show strong potential as scalable, culturally adaptive tools to strengthen counseling readiness in pesantren.

Abstract

The well-being of faculty and staff in higher education has increasingly become a global concern, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, existing research remains fragmented and lacks a unified theoretical framework. This study aimed to synthesize empirical evidence on faculty and staff mental health and to develop an integrative Academic Well-Being model for higher-education settings. A Systematic Integrative Review (SLR) was conducted in accordance with PRISMA 2020. Seventeen peer-reviewed international studies published between 2017 and 2025 were analyzed through thematic synthesis. The findings reveal that academic well-being is a multidimensional construct encompassing eight key dimensions: psychological, social, organizational, spiritual, physical, digital, financial, and cultural policy. Psychological well-being and empathetic leadership emerged as central determinants, while digital adaptation, spiritual meaning, and financial security are emerging factors in the post-pandemic period. The synthesis resulted in an Ecological Model of Academic Well-Being (EAWB) comprising four nested levels: individual, interpersonal, organizational, and cultural systemic that interact dynamically to shape mental health and professional flourishing in academia. The model highlights that sustainable well-being arises not from personal resilience but from compassionate leadership, organizational justice, and inclusive cultures. This review contributes a holistic framework for transforming universities into compassionate ecosystems. Keywords: academic well-being model, mental health, university staff, higher education
