<![CDATA[Family is the main environment in the process of forming a child’s personality, where a good personality results from a good upbringing and education from both mother and father. However, the presence of a father figure is often not felt. Fatherless is the absence of a father’s role and presence in parenting, which occurs due to a particular reason. Objective: This study aims to determine the overview of fatherless in adolescents at SMAN X Bandung. Method: This study is a descriptive-quantitative research using a proportionate stratified random sampling technique, conducted on 291 students of SMAN X Bandung. The research data were measured from The Father Presence Questionnaire (FPQ), which has been translated into Indonesian, with the validity test count of 0.303 - 0.819 and Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.958. The data were analyzed univariately using frequency distribution and percentages. Results: A total 120 students (41.2%) are at high risk of experiencing fatherless, while the other 171 students (58.8%) are not at risk and receive adequate father’s role. Conclusions: The father’s role and presence for students is still necessary to be improved by holding a parenting class, training, and seminar, as these will have a positive impact on the student’s psychological development.]]>
