Abstract

This study employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method to examine the role of mindfulness in addressing overthinking and improving university students’ mental health. Based on an analysis of various scholarly sources and previous studies, mindfulness is found to be effective in reducing anxiety, enhancing emotional regulation, and helping students observe their thoughts without becoming trapped in excessive rumination. Mindfulness practices also enable individuals to be more present in the moment, allowing them to respond to academic pressures in a more adaptive manner. When combined with a transpersonal approach, the benefits of mindfulness expand further by fostering self-awareness, spiritual growth, and holistic psychological balance. The transpersonal perspective supports students in understanding deeper inner experiences and strengthening connections with positive values that promote mental well-being. In light of these findings, this study recommends that universities integrate mindfulness practices into mental health programs, counseling services, and student development activities. Such efforts are considered valuable in helping students cope with increasingly complex academic demands, enhance their resilience, and create a healthier, more supportive learning environment for their overall mental well-being.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the position of Sufism as an often overlooked intellectual and practical foundation in the birth of Transpersonal Psychology. Through a literature study and comparative analysis approach, this research criticizes the limitations of mainstream psychological paradigms—particularly Freudian Psychoanalysis and Behaviorism—which fail to explain the spiritual dimension and peak experiences of humans. The research findings show that key concepts of Sufism such as fana ' (destruction of the ego ), ma'rifat(divine knowledge), andZikr as a method of developing consciousness, has been discussing the "transpersonal" area centuries before modern psychology formulated it. Sufism is not just a parallel, but functions as a root that provides a comprehensive spiritual journey map. This article concludes that the integration of the Sufi heritage with Transpersonal Psychology can lead to a more holistic understanding of human consciousness, moving beyond pathological models to a model of actualizing the highest human potential. This study recommends further exploration of Sufism practices as a therapeutic modality in the context of contemporary psychology.

Abstract

Adolescence is a developmental phase characterized by complex biological, psychological, and social changes, making individuals vulnerable to emotional disorders such as anxiety, depression, and affective instability. Early identification of these conditions is crucial to prevent long-term negative impacts, particularly on academic achievement, social relationships, and overall mental health. This article aims to analyze the role of psychodiagnostics as a systematic approach to identifying emotional disorders in adolescents. The method used was a literature review of 20 relevant national and international journals on psychological assessment, psychometrics, and adolescent development. The results showed that the use of psychodiagnostic tools such as projective tests, personality inventories, emotion scales, and clinical interviews can provide a comprehensive picture of adolescents' emotional states. Furthermore, the integration of multiple instruments has been shown to increase diagnostic accuracy. These findings confirm that psychodiagnostics plays a crucial role in the early detection of emotional disorders and serves as the basis for developing more targeted psychological interventions. Thus, psychodiagnostics is a crucial component in efforts to prevent and treat emotional problems in adolescents.

Abstract

Psychodiagnostics is a crucial tool in psychology, used to measure, assess, and understand an individual's psychological state. The primary goal of psychodiagnostics is to provide an objective picture of a person's cognitive, emotional, and behavioral aspects, which can be used as a basis for intervention, counseling, and research. This article examines the role of psychodiagnostics in understanding psychological conditions through various methods, including standardized psychological tests, observation, clinical interviews, and personality inventories. The study's findings indicate that the appropriate use of psychodiagnostics can improve the accuracy of assessing psychological disorders, identify individual strengths and weaknesses, and facilitate appropriate intervention planning. However, the application of psychodiagnostics also faces challenges related to tool validity, assessor bias, and the ethical use of psychological data. Therefore, psychodiagnostics serves not only as a measurement tool but also as an important medium for understanding an individual's overall psychological dynamics, thus supporting a more scientific and evidence-based psychological practice.

Abstract

Psychodiagnostics is a crucial field in modern psychology, serving to objectively and comprehensively assess, measure, and understand an individual's mental health. Amidst the dynamics of 21st-century life, characterized by high demands, social pressures, and an increase in mental disorders, the need for systematic psychological assessment is growing. This article aims to examine the role of psychodiagnostics in understanding the mental health of modern individuals through an analysis of various assessment methods, such as psychological testing, clinical interviews, observation, inventory scales, and documentation analysis. A multidimensional approach to psychodiagnostics enables early identification of psychological disorders, mapping risk factors, and providing appropriate intervention recommendations. The findings indicate that psychodiagnostics serves not only as a detection tool but also as a basis for decision-making in clinical interventions, therapy planning, and monitoring mental health development. Thus, psychodiagnostics plays a strategic role in improving the psychological well-being of modern individuals through valid, reliable, and evidence-based assessments.
