Abstract

Homesickness is a profound emotional longing for home, commonly experienced by students who live far from their families and familiar environments. This condition may trigger various psychological symptoms such as anxiety, loneliness, reduced academic motivation, and even depression. One of the therapeutic approaches used to address homesickness is Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), a cognitive-behavioral therapy developed by Albert Ellis. This literature review aims to analyze the effectiveness of REBT in reducing the intensity of homesickness among migrant students. The study is based on a systematic review of relevant scholarly articles that discuss REBT interventions among university populations. The findings indicate that REBT helps individuals identify and replace irrational beliefs—often at the root of negative emotions—with more rational and adaptive thought patterns. Techniques such as disputing, reframing, and home assignments have been shown to enhance emotional resilience and coping skills. Therefore, REBT is considered an effective intervention that can be applied in higher education settings as a promotive and preventive strategy for psychological issues related to homesickness.
