Abstract

Learning motivation is a crucial foundation for the academic success of elementary school students, yet low motivation remains a primary challenge in educational practice. Although the behavioristic approach through reinforcement offers a practical solution, empirical findings on its effectiveness show inconsistencies, particularly in differentiating its influence on intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. This study aims to synthesize empirical findings on the influence of reinforcement on the learning motivation of elementary school students. The method used is a systematic literature review of seven articles from the Google Scholar and Sage Publications databases that met the inclusion criteria. The synthesis results indicate that reinforcement is a fundamental factor that significantly shapes behavior and enhances motivation. Positive reinforcement, such as praise, is proven effective in strengthening perceived competence, whereas criticism has the potential to damage learning interest. Its effectiveness is highly dependent on crucial factors such as timing, consistency, and appropriateness to student characteristics. This study confirms that reinforcement, when applied strategically and wisely, is an applicable and relevant tool for teachers to create a supportive learning environment that fosters the development of student motivation.

Abstract

Makan bajamba is a traditional Minangkabau communal dining practice that embodies deep social, symbolic, and psychological meanings. Beyond fulfilling biological needs, this tradition functions as a cultural mechanism for strengthening social cohesion, collective identity, and a sense of belonging within indigenous communities. This study aims to explore the practice of makan bajamba and its contribution to fostering social cohesion and sense of belonging among the people of Nagari Kamang Mudiak, Agam Regency, West Sumatra. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study design, data were collected through participant observation during a baralek gadang (traditional wedding ceremony) and in-depth interviews with bundo kanduang and juwaro who play key roles in the ritual. The findings reveal that makan bajamba is a highly structured customary ritual that reflects values of equality, togetherness, and respect for Minangkabau social structure. Seating arrangements, food presentation, and the shared practice of eating from a single tray serve as symbolic expressions that strengthen emotional bonds among community members. This collective experience enhances social cohesion and fulfills essential components of sense of belonging, particularly belongingness and valued involvement. Moreover, makan bajamba acts as a medium for intergenerational transmission of cultural values and identity amid the pressures of modernization. The study highlights the significance of local cultural practices in sustaining cultural identity while promoting psychosocial well-being within indigenous communities.
