Abstract

Human resources have an important role in maintaining organizational performance, especially in the competitive retail industry such as PT Ramayana Lestari Sentosa Tbk. High job demands, including workload and daily performance targets, have the potential to increase the risk of burnout in employees. This study aims to test the relationship between job demand and burnout, with the hypothesis that the higher the job demand, the higher the level of burnout experienced by employees. This study uses a quantitative method with Pearson correlation analysis. The results showed a significant positive relationship between job demand and burnout (r = 0.756; p = 0.000). In addition, the determination coefficient shows that job demand contributes 57.1% to burnout. These findings confirm the importance of managing work demands effectively to prevent burnout and support employee well-being and organizational sustainability.

Abstract

The phenomenon of hustle culture has become a significant issue due to its potential impact on workplace well-being, particularly among Generation Z employees in urban work environments who face high work demands and competitive pressures. This study aims to examine potential disparities in workplace well-being based on demographic characteristics, including gender, age, and educational background, among Generation Z employees in DKI Jakarta. A quantitative approach was employed using a descriptive-comparative design with convenience sampling, involving 762 participants. Data were collected using the Workplace Well-being Questionnaire and analysed using independent samples t-tests and one-way ANOVA. Descriptive results indicated that the overall level of workplace well-being was high (M = 3.41). The results showed no significant differences based on gender (p = 0.982) and age (F = 0.644, p = 0.526), but a significant difference was found based on educational background (F = 8.045, p < 0.001). These findings highlight the importance of educational background as a contextual factor in shaping workplace well-being and provide valuable insights for organisations to develop targeted strategies for supporting Generation Z employees.

Abstract

Exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) has long-term consequences persisting into the transition to motherhood. Approximately 58.1% of Indonesian mothers in this sample reported at least one ACE. These traumatic experiences may affect the formation of secure attachment within the mother–child relationship and increase the likelihood of negative outcomes in children’s development. This research aims to examine the association between maternal ACEs and the quality of mother-child attachment, operationalized through the dimensions of closeness and conflict. A quantitative approach with purposive sampling technique was used in this study. A total of 215 mother–child dyads were involved. Spearman’s rank correlation was conducted for hypothesis testing. Results showed that maternal ACEs were negatively correlated with closeness (ρ = −0.217, p = 0.001) and positively correlated with conflict (ρ = 0.311, p < 0.001). The findings indicate that higher exposure to ACEs is associated with lower emotional closeness and higher conflict in the mother–child relationship. This underscores the importance of considering maternal ACEs in understanding attachment quality and may suggest the potential role of protective factors in mitigating the effects of adversity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of work-life balance and meaningful work on intention to stay, with career adaptability as a mediating variable. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method of 250 service sector employees in Indonesia. The data analysis technique used Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results showed that work-life balance and meaningful work had a positive and significant effect on career adaptability and intention to stay. β = 0.25 (WLB → ITS) β = 0.30 (MW → ITS) β = 0.40 (WLB → CA) β = 0.35 (MW → CA) In addition, career adaptability also has a significant effect on intention to stay β = 0.28 CA → ITS and it is proven that career adaptability mediates work-life balance on intention to stay β indirect = 0.40 × 0.28 = 0.112 (WLB → CA → ITS) and meaningful work on intention to stay β indirect = 0.35 × 0.28 = 0.098 MW → CA → ITS The coefficient of determination (R² = 0.71) shows that the model has strong explanatory power, while the predictive relevance value (Q² > 0) indicates the model has good predictive ability. This finding confirms that work-life balance and job meaning are important factors in increasing employee retention by strengthening career adaptability.

Abstract

Senior students often face stress while writing their theses, which can potentially lead to psychological distress. One dispositional factor believed to play a role is perfectionism, with self-esteem serving as the psychological mechanism that explains this relationship. This study aims to examine the role of self-esteem as a mediator in the relationship between perfectionism and distress. The study employed a quantitative approach with 361 participants. Measurements were taken using the DASS-21, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), and the MPCI-E, and the data were analyzed using mediation analysis. The results showed that perfectionism was positively associated with distress (r = 0.435; p < .001) and negatively associated with self-esteem (r = -0.238; p < .001), while self-esteem was negatively associated with distress (r = -0.539; p < .001). Self-esteem was found to partially mediate the relationship between perfectionism and distress (B = 0.193; p < .001). These findings underscore the importance of self-esteem in explaining the contribution of perfectionism to psychological distress.

Abstract

This study examined the relationship between self-resilience and perceived stress among Generation Z in Semarang City. A quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional survey approach was employed. The study involved 70 Generation Z participants who lived, studied, or worked in Semarang City. Self-resilience was measured using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale 25 (CD-RISC 25), while perceived stress was assessed using the Perceived Stress Scale 10 (PSS-10). Data were analyzed using SPSS 26 through descriptive statistics, validity and reliability tests, normality testing, and Pearson product-moment correlation. The results showed a significant negative relationship between self-resilience and perceived stress (r = -0.630; p = 0.000), indicating that higher self-resilience was associated with lower perceived stress. These findings suggest that self-resilience is an important psychological resource for helping Generation Z cope with academic, occupational, social, and urban life pressures.
