Abstract

Romantic relationships in early adulthood have been shown to have a significant impact on an individual's sense of self-worth, particularly when self-esteem becomes dependent on relational dynamics. This study explores the manifestation and impact of Relationship Contingent Self-Esteem (RCSE) on psychological well-being among young adults in Padang, Indonesia. A qualitative survey approach was utilized to collect data from 200 participants (75 males and 125 females) through open-ended questionnaires designed to capture personal experiences and perceptions related to self-worth in romantic contexts. Thematic analysis was conducted using MAXQDA software in three stages: open coding to identify key concepts, axial coding to uncover patterns, and selective coding to synthesize overarching themes. The findings of the present study indicate that external validation from romantic partners plays a pivotal role in shaping self-evaluation and emotional states. Dependence on partner approval has been demonstrated to correspond with fluctuations in self-esteem, which in turn has been demonstrated to impact overall psychological well-being. The findings underscore the importance of addressing emotional vulnerabilities in romantic relationships. The necessity for targeted interventions, such as psychoeducational programs and emotional regulation training, is also suggested. The purpose of these interventions is to foster emotional resilience and promote healthy relational development during early adulthood.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji Relationship Contingent Self-Esteem (RCSE) dalam konteks hubungan romantis di era digital melalui metode Systematic Literature Review (SLR). RCSE merupakan bentuk harga diri yang bergantung pada dinamika dan validasi dari hubungan romantis, yang dalam era digital kian kompleks seiring dengan tingginya penggunaan media sosial. Kajian ini dilakukan dengan mengikuti pedoman PRISMA, menggunakan kata kunci relevan pada basis data Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, dan OpenKnowledge. Proses seleksi dilakukan menggunakan aplikasi Rayyan, dengan penerapan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi yang ketat untuk memastikan kualitas dan relevansi studi. Sebanyak 18 artikel terpilih dianalisis secara mendalam untuk menelusuri perkembangan konsep RCSE, faktor risiko dan protektif, serta dampaknya terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis dan dinamika relasi. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa RCSE berkorelasi kuat dengan peningkatan kecemasan, stres, depresi, konflik relasi, serta perilaku maladaptif seperti pencarian validasi digital berlebih dan penggunaan alkohol sebagai mekanisme koping. Di sisi lain, faktor protektif seperti self-compassion, harga diri non-kontingen, dan regulasi emosi dapat memoderasi dampak negatif RCSE dalam relasi digital. Temuan ini menyoroti pentingnya intervensi berbasis penguatan identitas diri, edukasi digital, dan keterampilan relasional dalam menghadapi tantangan psikososial akibat RCSE.

Abstract

The adaptation of the Attitudes Toward Voluntary Childlessness Scale is a useful measurement tool for assessing aspects related to being childfree, such as families who do not wish to have children, the necessity of children for a family to be happy/meaningful, and whether society supports individuals' choices not to have children. The adaptation of the Attitudes Toward Voluntary Childlessness Scale is essential because there is no suitable measurement tool in Indonesian to accurately measure the concept of being childfree, especially in the context of families who choose not to have children. This measurement tool consists of 24 items and has undergone six stages of adaptation following cross-cultural adaptation guidelines. Through testing on 50 adults in Indonesia, a reliability coefficient of 0.906 was obtained to measure indicators related to individuals who do not have children, the necessity of children for a family to be happy/meaningful, and whether society supports individuals' choices not to have children. Therefore, the adapted Attitudes Toward Voluntary Childlessness Scale can be used in future research to predict various variables related to the concept of being childfree in Indonesia.
