Abstract

The phenomenon of the quarter-life crisis frequently occurs among individuals aged 20 to 30 years, a period known as emerging adulthood. This prolonged crisis phase is primarily attributed to low levels of well-being, which are influenced by self-compassion—a factor with both preventive and promotive potential. This study aims to examine how self-compassion affects the psychological well-being of emerging adults experiencing a quarter-life crisis in Surabaya. Employing a quantitative research approach, the study utilizes a closed-ended questionnaire for data collection. The findings confirm that self-compassion has a positive impact on psychological well-being and serves as a protective factor in coping with the quarter-life crisis. By recognizing difficulties as a natural part of life, students with higher self-compassion are better able to accept themselves, regulate their emotions effectively, and develop more stable psychological well-being.

Abstract

The preschool years represent a critical stage in children's cognitive, socio-emotional, linguistic, and psychomotor development, with creativity and giftedness as essential components of early education. However, the current education system lacks comprehensive strategies to effectively integrate language development as a foundational approach to nurturing creativity and talent. This study investigates the relationship between language development and the cultivation of creativity in preschool children through a qualitative methodology incorporating teacher interviews and classroom observations. Thematic analysis was employed to identify patterns in pedagogical practices that promote creativity through linguistic expression. The findings reveal that parental involvement and interactive learning methods foster children's creativity and gifted potential. The novelty of this study lies in its emphasis on linguistic expressions as indicators of cognitive and creative growth, addressing a gap in previous research that has largely overlooked the specific role of language in the development of giftedness during early childhood. These insights offer valuable contributions for educators in designing more effective strategies to enhance preschoolers’ creativity through language development.
