Abstract

This study aims to develop and evaluate the content validity of an academic resilience instrument for junior high school students (SMP) that includes three main dimensions: perseverance, self-reflection and adaptive assistance, and negative affect and emotional responses. Through an assessment process by three experts using the Aiken's V technique, 45 out of 54 items (83.3%) were declared to have high content validity (Aiken's V ≥ 0.80), while the other nine items showed low validity (Aiken's V = 0.333) and were recommended for revision. These findings indicate that in general the instrument has met the criteria for adequate content validity and is suitable for use to measure the academic resilience of junior high school students. The main recommendation of this study is to maintain items that have been proven valid, and to conduct further revisions and empirical testing using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) or confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) methods to ensure the structure and internal consistency of the instrument statistically.

Abstract

The negative connotation associated with societal perceptions of the guidance and counseling profession sometimes equates it to a problem-solver.  Guidance and counseling educators are essential, beyond conventional academic responsibilities to attend to students' social, emotional, and psychological welfare, while also promoting a pleasant school atmosphere.  This article examines the imperative of peace competency for guidance and counseling educators in the context of inclusive education, and how a peace-oriented approach can transform their function from mere conflict mediators to proactive agents in fostering harmonious, secure, and diversity-respecting educational settings. Utilizing a literary analysis that integrates sources from articles and books released in the last ten years.  The extensive duties of guidance and counseling educators encompass proactive measures to foster a pleasant and inclusive school atmosphere, promote peace education, and prepare students with the competencies required to manage difficult social scenarios and amicably settle problems.  Therefore, support and cooperation from all stakeholders are crucial, including efforts to improve the peace competences of guidance and counseling educators, allowing them to properly execute their roles and responsibilities.
