Abstract

This research aims to improve students' adjustment through group guidance services using problem-solving techniques from the perspective of Islamic Psychology. The research uses the Guidance and Counseling Action Research (PTBK) method, which is carried out in two cycles, including the stages of planning, action implementation, observation, and reflection. The research participants consisted of 8 students from class X E 3, selected using the random sampling technique. Data collection techniques were carried out through a Problem Checklist (DCM), self-adjustment scale, observation, and documentation. Data were analyzed descriptively and quantitatively with the help of Microsoft Excel. The research results show that group counseling services using problem-solving techniques can improve students' adjustment. The improvement is shown by the students' ability to interact with peers, control their emotions, solve problems constructively, and adapt to the school environment. At the end of cycle II, 6 students were in the high category and 2 students were in the medium category, thus achieving the research success indicator of 75%. In the perspective of Islamic Psychology, the improvement in self-adjustment reflects the development of students' abilities to apply the values of tafakkur, muhasabah, ikhtiar, and to build harmonious social relationships in accordance with the principles of ukhuwah Islamiyah. Thus, group guidance services using problem-solving techniques are effectively used to enhance students' self-adjustment.
