Abstract

Interpersonal dependency is a common clinical concern among emerging adult women and is linked to impaired autonomy and relational distress, yet evidence-based interventions in university counseling settings remain limited. This study examined the clinical utility of a brief cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targeting dependency-related cognitions and autonomy skills among female undergraduates with dependent personality features. Three students (ages 20–21) recruited from a university counseling service were screened using the dependent personality subscale of the PDQ-4+. A one-group pretest–posttest design with follow-up was employed. Interpersonal dependency was assessed using the Interpersonal Dependency Inventory (IDI) at pre-intervention, post-intervention, and follow-up, supplemented by qualitative clinical evaluation. Participants showed clinically meaningful and sustained reductions in IDI scores, alongside improvements in boundary setting, independent decision making, and emotion regulation. Findings suggest that brief CBT-based interventions may be feasibly integrated into regular university counseling services, while highlighting the need for larger controlled studies.

Abstract

Masa remaja merupakan tahap perkembangan krusial untuk eksplorasi identitas; namun, remaja dari latar belakang sosial ekonomi rendah sering kali menghadapi keterbatasan akses terhadap pendidikan berkualitas dan minimnya dukungan lingkungan yang mendorong motivasi belajar. Mengingat pentingnya pendidikan dalam meningkatkan kesejahteraan masa depan, intervensi psikoedukasi dapat menjadi strategi untuk mengatasi kesenjangan ini. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran diri melalui eksplorasi minat pada siswa sekolah menengah pertama. Sebanyak 58 siswa kelas VIII dan IX (M_usia = 15,38; SD = 0,67; 53,45% perempuan) dari SMPN 3 Jabung Satu Atap, Kabupaten Malang, mengikuti sesi psikoedukasi yang berfokus pada karakteristik perkembangan remaja dan bidang minat sebagai jalur menuju potensi karier di masa depan. Sesi ditutup dengan aktivitas reflektif di mana siswa menggambarkan cita-citanya pada poster “pohon harapan.” Evaluasi pra dan pasca intervensi dianalisis menggunakan uji Wilcoxon. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan yang signifikan dalam pengetahuan tentang kesadaran diri siswa melalui eksplorasi minat, z = −2,572, p = 0,006. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa psikoedukasi efektif dalam mendukung perkembangan identitas dan motivasi belajar pada siswa dari latar belakang kurang mampu. Disarankan agar pihak sekolah dan orang tua mendukung pengembangan minat siswa dengan memberikan akses informasi serta memfasilitasi kegiatan akademik dan nonakademik yang relevan dengan perencanaan karier masa depan

Abstract

Reproductive health is an important part of adolescent development, particularly for girls who experience biological, emotional, and social changes simultaneously. This activity aimed to evaluate changes in reproductive health knowledge following case-based education and to explore participants’ experiences and responses to puberty and reproductive health topics. The activity was conducted at SMP Putri Al Irsyad Al Islamiyah, Malang City, involving 64 female students from grades VII–IX aged 12–16 years (Mage = 14.17 years; SDage = 0.98). A mixed-methods approach was used, combining quantitative evaluation through a one-group pretest–posttest design with qualitative exploration through focus group discussions (FGD), reflection, and debriefing. Because the data were not normally distributed (Shapiro–Wilk, W = 0.844; p < 0.001), differences in scores were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test. The analysis showed a significant increase from pretest (M = 83.75; SD = 17.77) to posttest (M = 92.50; SD = 12.08), z = −3.586, p < 0.001, with a rank-biserial correlation of −0.738, indicating a large effect. Thematic analysis identified three main themes: (1) understanding primary reproductive characteristics, (2) awareness of secondary characteristics and emotional changes, and (3) reproductive hygiene practices. The findings indicate that case-based education was associated with increased reproductive health knowledge. Qualitative findings further indicated increased understanding of bodily changes, reproductive hygiene practices, and openness in discussing puberty-related experiences. The implication of these findings is that reproductive health education can serve as an input for integration into the school curriculum and the existing Guidance and Counseling services.
