Abstract

The effectiveness of advertisements depends on their creativity to attract and be remembered by consumers, including the use of humor. Humor can arouse positive emotions that help someone remember more. This study examines the influence of humor in advertising on recall ability. with 75 students taken using simple random sampling technique and compared in two groups: control group (38 participants) and experimental group (37 participants). A post-test involving short-answer questions measures participants' recall abilities. Mann-Whitney analysis indicates no significant difference between the two groups. These results suggest that the inclusion of humor in advertising does not significantly affect recall abilities. This showed that humor in advertisements is not a factor that influences someone to remember more information from an advertisement

Abstract

The desire to survive is a basic human instinct, but the transitions and role changes in adolescence could paradoxically trigger suicidal ideation. In this correlational study (N = 202, 86.14% female; age range 12-20 years, Mage = 19, SDage = 2.77), we examined the extent to which adolescents' suicidal ideation (Scale for Suicide Ideation: SSI) could be predicted by levels of their perceived social support (Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support: MSPSS), self-efficacy (General Self-Efficacy Scale), and depression (Beck Depression Inventory: BDI-II). We found that these three variables simultaneously predicted suicidal ideation by 52%. Self-efficacy perceived social support, and depression also partially predicted suicidal ideation (11.2%, 29.2%, and 47.12%). Mental health promotion, prevention programs, and coping strategies focusing on suicidal ideation would benefit from an early identification of how these three variables may interact with each other in adolescents.

Abstract

Happiness is often associated with wealth, but abdi dalem with their low incomes maintain high levels of happiness. Cultural influences give abdi dalem a unique perspective on happiness. This study examines the role of religiosity in the happiness of the Abdi Dalem of Yogyakarta Palace using quantitative methods. Data were collected through a questionnaire measuring religiosity and happiness, distributed directly to respondents. The sample consisted of 147 Abdi Dalem of Yogyakarta Palace with predefined criteria. The mean age of the respondents was 64.79 with a standard deviation of 12.12. The Oxford Happiness Questionnaire-Short Form (OHQ-SF) was used to measure the happiness variable, and the Centrality of Religiosity Scale (CRS-10) to measure the religiosity variable. Through simple linear regression analysis, it was found that religiosity has a positive effect on happiness, with a contribution rate of 4%. These findings suggest that religiosity, as an internalized and culturally embedded construct, plays a foundational yet limited statistical role in the happiness of the Abdi Dalem. The results offer valuable insights into culturally rooted well-being and highlight the importance of religious commitment in traditional communities

Abstract

The increasing divorce rate in Indonesia indicates that many couples still experience difficulties in managing marital conflicts effectively. On the other hand, some couples are able to maintain their marriages for more than 30 years despite facing various life challenges and relationship dynamics. This study aims to explore conflict dynamics, conflict resolution strategies, and the meaning of harmony among couples in long-term marriages. This study employed a qualitative approach with a narrative method involving 8 participants aged 47–66 years. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis to identify cross-participant patterns, which were subsequently organized into thematic narratives in accordance with the narrative approach. The findings revealed that conflict was perceived as a process of adaptation and emotional learning rather than a threat to the relationship. The most commonly used conflict resolution strategies included compromise, accommodation, and collaboration. Harmony was interpreted as the ability to maintain communication, understand differences, and preserve commitment through religiosity, patience, and family-oriented values. Meningkatnya angka perceraian di Indonesia menunjukkan bahwa banyak pasangan masih mengalami kesulitan dalam mengelola konflik rumah tangga. Di sisi lain, terdapat pasangan yang mampu mempertahankan pernikahan hingga lebih dari 30 tahun meskipun menghadapi berbagai dinamika kehidupan dan hubungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi dinamika konflik, strategi resolusi konflik, dan makna keharmonisan pada pasangan dengan usia pernikahan jangka panjang. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode naratif terhadap 8 partisipan berusia 47–66 tahun. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam semi terstruktur dan dianalisis menggunakan analisis tematik untuk mengidentifikasi pola lintas partisipan, yang kemudian disusun ke dalam narasi tematik sesuai dengan pendekatan naratif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konflik dipandang sebagai proses adaptasi dan pembelajaran emosional, bukan ancaman terhadap hubungan. Strategi penyelesaian konflik yang paling sering digunakan meliputi kompromi, akomodasi, dan kolaborasi. Keharmonisan dimaknai sebagai kemampuan pasangan untuk menjaga komunikasi, memahami perbedaan, serta mempertahankan komitmen melalui nilai religiusitas, kesabaran, dan orientasi terhadap keutuhan keluarga.

Abstract

Time pressure in academic evaluation contexts may compromise the quality of students' cognitive processing, yet its effect on decision-making accuracy among secondary school students remains underexplored. This study examined the effect of time pressure on decision-making accuracy in 75 eleventh-grade students at SMA X Jatinangor using a between-subjects posttest-only control group design. Accuracy was operationalized as the number of correct responses on the Cognitive Reflection Test (CRT-8C), a measure of the ability to override intuitive but incorrect responses in favour of analytical reasoning. Results from a Mann-Whitney U test indicated that students in the time-pressured experimental group scored significantly lower than the control group (z = −2.36, p = .009, r = .27). These findings are consistent with Speed-Accuracy Trade-off Theory and Dual-Processing Theory, suggesting that time constraints shift cognitive processing toward System 1 thinking at the expense of reflective analysis. Practically, these results highlight the need for more deliberate time allocation in academic assessments to better reflect students' actual reasoning capacity. Tekanan waktu dalam konteks evaluasi akademik berpotensi mengganggu kualitas pemrosesan kognitif siswa, namun pengaruhnya terhadap akurasi pengambilan keputusan pada pelajar sekolah menengah masih belum banyak dikaji. Penelitian ini mengkaji pengaruh tekanan waktu terhadap akurasi pengambilan keputusan pada 75 pelajar kelas XI SMA X Jatinangor menggunakan desain eksperimental between-subjects posttest-only control group. Akurasi dioperasionalisasikan sebagai jumlah jawaban benar pada Cognitive Reflection Test (CRT-8C), yaitu instrumen yang mengukur kemampuan individu untuk mengesampingkan respons intuitif yang keliru demi pengambilan keputusan yang analitis. Hasil uji Mann-Whitney U menunjukkan bahwa kelompok eksperimen yang diberi tekanan waktu memperoleh skor akurasi yang secara signifikan lebih rendah dibandingkan kelompok kontrol (z = −2.36, p = .009, r = .27). Temuan ini konsisten dengan Speed-Accuracy Trade-off Theory dan Dual-Processing Theory, yang menjelaskan bahwa tekanan waktu menggeser pemrosesan kognitif ke arah berpikir Sistem 1 sehingga menghambat analisis reflektif. Secara praktis, hasil ini menegaskan perlunya pertimbangan alokasi waktu yang lebih cermat dalam evaluasi akademik agar dapat lebih mencerminkan kapasitas penalaran siswa yang sesungguhnya.

Abstract

Unpaid internship programs have become increasingly common as a cost-saving recruitment strategy, yet their psychological implications for student workers remain underexplored. Drawing on Job Demands-Resources theory, this quantitative correlational study examined whether work engagement mediates the relationship between perceived organizational support (POS) and individual work performance among unpaid interns. Participants were 187 active undergraduate students in Indonesia who were engaged in or had completed unpaid internships lasting 3–6 months during 2024–2025. Data were collected using the Individual Work Performance Questionnaire (IWPQ), Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9 (UWES-9), and Survey of Perceived Organizational Support-6 (SPOS-6), and analysed using PROCESS Macro Model 4. Results indicated that POS had a significant positive direct effect on individual work performance and a significant positive indirect effect through work engagement (indirect effect = 0.076, 95% Boot CI [0.041, 0.115]). These findings suggest that non-financial forms of organizational support, including mentoring, fair treatment, and constructive feedback, are sufficient to foster work engagement and, in turn, sustain optimal performance among unpaid interns. Program magang tanpa upah semakin banyak digunakan organisasi sebagai strategi rekrutmen berbiaya rendah, namun implikasi psikologisnya bagi mahasiswa peserta magang masih kurang diteliti. Berlandaskan model Job Demands-Resources (JD-R), penelitian kuantitatif korelasional ini mengkaji peran mediasi keterikatan kerja pada hubungan antara persepsi dukungan organisasi dan kinerja individu mahasiswa magang tanpa upah. Partisipan adalah 187 mahasiswa S-1 aktif di Indonesia yang sedang atau pernah mengikuti magang tanpa upah berdurasi 3–6 bulan pada periode 2024–2025. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan Individual Work Performance Questionnaire (IWPQ), Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9 (UWES-9), dan Survey of Perceived Organizational Support-6 (SPOS-6), serta dianalisis menggunakan PROCESS Macro Model 4. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa persepsi dukungan organisasi berpengaruh positif signifikan secara langsung terhadap kinerja individu, sekaligus berpengaruh positif signifikan secara tidak langsung melalui mediasi keterikatan kerja (indirect effect = 0,076; 95% Boot CI [0,041, 0,115]). Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa bentuk dukungan organisasi selain upah finansial, seperti bimbingan mentor, perlakuan adil, dan umpan balik konstruktif, cukup untuk menumbuhkan keterikatan kerja yang pada akhirnya menopang kinerja individu yang optimal pada mahasiswa magang tanpa upah.

Abstract

Emerging adulthood is a developmental period during which university students face increasing academic and career-related responsibilities. These demands may contribute to uncertainty and reduced psychological well-being. This study examined the role of positive career discrepancy, defined as perceiving career progress as exceeding one’s goals, in predicting psychological well-being among university students, as well as the mediating role of academic self-efficacy. Participants were 159 undergraduate students (aged 18–25 years; M = 21.28, SD = 1.44) from public and private universities in Greater Jakarta, Indonesia, recruited through accidental sampling. Data were collected using the College Student Subjective Well-Being Questionnaire–Revised (CSSWQ-R), the Positive Career Goal Discrepancy Scale (PCGDS), and the Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (ASE). Simple mediation analysis showed that positive career discrepancy was positively associated with psychological well-being both directly (β = .18, p = .002) and indirectly through academic self-efficacy (β = .32, p < .001). These findings suggest that positive evaluations of career progress may enhance students’ psychological well-being by strengthening their academic self-efficacy. The study highlights the importance of fostering positive career perceptions and self-efficacy to support student well-being in higher education. Emerging adulthood merupakan periode perkembangan ketika mahasiswa menghadapi tuntutan akademik dan tanggung jawab karier yang semakin besar. Kondisi tersebut dapat menimbulkan ketidakpastian dan berdampak pada kesejahteraan psikologis. Penelitian ini bertujuan menguji peran diskrepansi karier positif, yaitu persepsi bahwa kemajuan karier telah melampaui target yang ditetapkan, dalam memprediksi kesejahteraan psikologis mahasiswa serta peran mediasi efikasi diri akademik. Partisipan penelitian adalah 159 mahasiswa sarjana berusia 18–25 tahun (M = 21.28, SD = 1.44) dari perguruan tinggi negeri dan swasta di Jabodetabek yang direkrut menggunakan teknik accidental sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan College Student Subjective Well-Being Questionnaire–Revised (CSSWQ-R), Positive Career Goal Discrepancy Scale (PCGDS), dan Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (ASE). Hasil analisis mediasi sederhana menunjukkan bahwa diskrepansi karier positif berhubungan secara positif dengan kesejahteraan psikologis, baik secara langsung (β = .18, p = .002) maupun secara tidak langsung melalui efikasi diri akademik (β = .32, p < .001). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa persepsi positif terhadap kemajuan karier dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan psikologis mahasiswa melalui penguatan efikasi diri akademik. Hasil penelitian menegaskan pentingnya pengembangan persepsi karier yang positif dan efikasi diri dalam mendukung kesejahteraan mahasiswa di lingkungan pendidikan tinggi.

Abstract

Adolescence is an important transition phase that is prone to experiencing stress, both negative (distress) and positive (eustress). One of the protective factors to be able to manage the stress felt is to implement a healthy lifestyle. The purpose of this research is to test the role of a healthy lifestyle in predicting distress and eustress in adolescents. The design of this study is quantitative correlational. The participants who were actively involved in this study were 139 adolescents aged 15–18 years who were obtained using accidental sampling techniques. The instruments used in the data collection process were the Adolescent Healthy Lifestyle Questionnaire (AHLQ) and the Adolescent Distress-Eustress Scale (ADES). Based on regression analysis, it was shown that a healthy lifestyle was able to predict the stress experienced by adolescents. This means that a healthy lifestyle has a significant negative relationship with distress and has a significant positive influence on eustress. The data from the aspect analysis also enriched the findings of this study by explaining that life appreciation and social support are the aspects of a healthy lifestyle that contribute the most significant compared to health responsibilities, diet, physical activity, and stress management. These findings imply that mental health interventions for adolescents should pivot toward holistic lifestyle programs that centrally incorporate life appreciation practices and health responsibility as the most consistent predictors to effectively buffer against distress and foster positive psychological growth. Masa remaja adalah fase transisi penting yang rentan mengalami stres, baik negatif (kesusahan) maupun positif (eustress). Salah satu faktor pelindung untuk dapat mengelola stres yang dirasakan adalah dengan menerapkan pola hidup sehat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji peran gaya hidup sehat dalam memprediksi kesusahan dan eustress pada remaja. Desain penelitian ini bersifat korelasi kuantitatif. Peserta yang terlibat aktif dalam penelitian ini adalah 139 remaja berusia 15-18 tahun yang diperoleh dengan menggunakan teknik accidental sampling. Instrumen yang digunakan dalam proses pengumpulan data adalah Kuesioner Gaya Hidup Sehat Remaja (AHLQ) dan Skala Tekanan Remaja (ADES). Berdasarkan analisis regresi, ditunjukkan bahwa pola hidup sehat mampu memprediksi stres yang dialami remaja. Ini berarti bahwa gaya hidup sehat memiliki hubungan negatif yang signifikan dengan kesusahan dan memiliki pengaruh positif yang signifikan pada eustress. Data dari analisis aspek juga memperkaya temuan penelitian ini dengan menjelaskan bahwa apresiasi hidup dan dukungan sosial merupakan aspek gaya hidup sehat yang berkontribusi paling signifikan dibandingkan dengan tanggung jawab kesehatan, pola makan, aktivitas fisik dan manajemen stres. Temuan ini mengimplikasikan bahwa intervensi kesehatan mental bagi remaja perlu beralih ke program gaya hidup holistik yang secara kuat mengintegrasikan praktik apresiasi kehidupan dan tanggung jawab kesehatan sebagai prediktor yang paling konsisten guna meredam distres secara efektif sekaligus mendorong pertumbuhan psikologis yang positif.
