Abstract

Adolescents raised in disharmonious family environments often experience emotional dysregulation, increasing their vulnerability to delinquent behaviors such as minor crimes, rule violations, and social aggression. This study investigates the predictive role of emotional intelligence in mitigating delinquency among adolescents from broken-home families. Utilizing a culturally adapted questionnaire based on Goleman’s emotional intelligence framework and Hawkins' delinquency model, data were collected from 130 participants aged 12–21 years. The findings indicate that emotional intelligence significantly contributes to reducing delinquent behavior, accounting for 33.1% of the variance in this context. The study theoretically underscores the role of emotional regulation as a protective factor in developmental psychology. In practical terms, this study offers empirical evidence to support school- and family-based interventions aimed at strengthening adolescents’ emotional skills.

Abstract

In today’s increasingly competitive work environment, employee performance plays a critical role in the success of any organization, especially in public services. However, poor communication and low self-confidence among employees, coupled with monotonous work routines, often lead to procrastination and reduced productivity. These issues not only affect individual performance but also the efficiency of public service delivery. This study aims to examine the influence of interpersonal communication and self-efficacy on employee performance, with procrastination serving as a mediator variable. The research was conducted with employees at the Land Office in City X, using a purposive sampling technique. The results showed that interpersonal communication had a positive path coefficient of 0.290 on employee performance, while self-efficacy had a stronger direct path coefficient of 0.668. The effect of both interpersonal communication and self-efficacy on employee performance through procrastination was weaker, with path coefficients of -0.121 and -0.059, respectively. This study highlights the importance of fostering effective communication and strengthening employees’ self-confidence to enhance performance, and offers valuable insights for improving managerial strategies in public-sector organizations.
