Abstract

The mental health of university students is a crucial aspect that contributes to their academic success and psychological well-being. However, many students experience academic, social, and emotional pressures that may trigger mental health disorders such as stress, anxiety, and depression. Unfortunately, limited access to counseling services and the negative stigma surrounding mental health discourage many students from seeking help. Therefore, innovative solutions are needed to support student mental health in a more accessible and effective manner. This study aims to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a mental health counseling e-book for university students. The research employs the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) development model, involving 417 students from the State Islamic University of North Sumatra. Data collection was conducted using a Likert-scale questionnaire to measure students' mental health before and after the e-book intervention. The findings indicate that the developed e-book meets the content and design feasibility standards, with percentages of 68.73% and 88.52%, respectively, and was deemed highly suitable by experts. The Wilcoxon statistical test revealed a significant improvement in students' mental health levels following the use of the e-book, with an Asymp. Sig value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). Thus, the e-book has proven to be an effective tool in helping students manage their mental health. This study recommends the utilization of e-books as a supplementary counseling medium in higher education institutions to enhance students' psychological well-being.

Abstract

A harmonious family serves as a foundational pillar in fostering a stable and prosperous society. This study investigates the roles, strategies, challenges, and impacts of Islamic religious counselors in promoting family harmony in Tanjung Mulia Village, Hinai Subdistrict, Langkat Regency—an area marked by socio-cultural diversity and limited access to formal state services. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving the Head of KUA, religious counselors, village leaders, and married couples. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model, involving data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing, with triangulation and peer review ensuring validity and reliability. Findings reveal that counselors serve not only as spiritual advisors but also as social facilitators and informal psychological support agents. Structured programs such as BRUS (School-Age Youth Guidance), BRUN (Marriage-Age Youth Guidance), and post-marriage counseling address mental, emotional, and spiritual readiness for family life. Strategies include five stages: planning, task distribution, implementation, evaluation, and reporting. Counseling is conducted in schools, prisons, mosques, and community centers, reflecting adaptability and reach. Key challenges include limited funding, low community literacy, inadequate infrastructure, and weak inter-agency collaboration. Nevertheless, the programs yield positive outcomes, such as improved spousal communication, enhanced role understanding, and reduced early marriage. Compared to formal state services, religious counselors provide grassroots, preventive family support that fills critical gaps. To optimize impact, this study recommends: (1) integrating counseling with national family programs, (2) enhancing counselor training in psychosocial and gender-sensitive skills, and (3) funding local-level initiatives. These findings offer transferable models for similar rural contexts.
