Abstract

This study aims to explore the experience of loneliness among older adults and the factors that influence it. Employing a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method, data were collected through in-depth interviews with two elderly individuals living in non-institutional settings. The findings reveal that loneliness in older adults is influenced by the loss of a spouse, physical distance from family, lack of meaningful social relationships, changes in the living environment, and limited emotional support. Participants who had access to social support and engaged in meaningful activities were better able to cope with loneliness compared to those who did not. The study concludes that loneliness is a subjective experience shaped by the individual’s life context. It underscores the importance of social and emotional interventions to support the psychological well-being of older adults. This study provides nuanced insights into the lived experiences of loneliness among non-institutionalized older adults in an Indonesian context, highlighting the role of social and emotional support in mitigating loneliness. It contributes to the development of culturally sensitive strategies for promoting mental health in aging populations.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the process of internalizing sharia values in the consumptive behavior of Muslim students at Islamic universities in Banyuwangi. This research employs a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data collection techniques include observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research subjects consist of students, lecturers, and campus figures involved in religious guidance. The findings reveal that the internalization of sharia values in student consumption behavior occurs through three stages: value cognition, value appreciation, and value actualization. Although most students understand Islamic financial principles such as the prohibition of excessiveness (israf), the importance of qana’ah (contentment), and the pursuit of blessings (barakah) in wealth management consumptive behavior is still present due to the influence of social media, peer pressure, and a digital consumer culture. A religious campus environment, the role of lecturers, and Islamic student organizations have proven to play a significant role in supporting the internalization process of these sharia values. This study recommends strengthening practical-based Islamic economic character education so that sharia values are not only understood theoretically but are also reflected in the students’ real-life behavior.
