<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the role of the Islamic boarding school environment in shaping the disciplinary character of female students at MTs Matsaratul Huda Panempan Pamekasan. The study is motivated by the phenomenon that students living in boarding school environments tend to have higher levels of discipline compared to those who do not, while specific studies focusing on the formation of disciplinary character among female students remain limited. This research focuses on the role of the boarding school environment and the supporting and inhibiting factors in shaping disciplinary character.This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participatory observation, and documentation involving teachers, boarding school administrators, and students. Data analysis used the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana, including data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation.The results show that the boarding school environment plays a significant role in shaping disciplinary character through three main dimensions: physical, social, and cultural-religious environments. The physical environment is reflected in well-organized facilities and clear rules, the social environment in teachers’ role modeling and peer interactions, and the cultural-religious environment in structured religious practices. Supporting factors include religious motivation, educator role modeling, the boarding school system, peer influence, and the implementation of reward and punishment. In contrast, inhibiting factors include homesickness, routine fatigue, social media influence, inconsistent family parenting, and limited supervision.]]>
