Abstract

The phenomenon of low social well-being is caused by a decline in socially conscious behaviors in adolescents and a lack of social support, which leads to a lack of social connection. Some previous studies have shown that peer social support affects social well-being, although other studies do not support this finding. This study suggests that there may be other factors (moderators) that affect the peer social support variable on social well-being, specifically savoring. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of peer social support on social well-being with savoring as a moderator variable. This research was a quantitative study with a survey type, which was conducted on high school students in the city of Yogyakarta with a sample size of 291 students. The sample determination in this study employed a cluster random sampling technique, while the data collection utilized peer social support, social well-being, and savoring scales. Instrument validity used content validity, construct validity, and reliability based on Cronbach's Alpha with α peer social support scale = 0.947, α social well-being scale = 0.814, and α savoring scale = 0.791. Data analysis techniques using macro process by Andrew F. Hayes. The results of this study show that there is no interaction between savoring and peer social support against social well-being. This suggests that savoring is unable to moderate the impact of peer social support on adolescents' social well-being. Therefore, savoring can't change the effect of peer social support on social well-being in adolescents.
