Blind people who have special needs show that limitations in moving and motor skills require self-confidence in playing music through the practice process. This study aims to analyze the process of achieving self-efficacy in blind students, by describing the process of achieving self-efficacy using Bandura's theory, namely cognitive processes, motivational processes, affective processes, and selection processes. The four processes of achieving self-efficacy show events that occur in individuals that influence situations such as emotional conditions that prioritize themselves rather than the influence of others. This study uses a qualitative approach to case study design with data collection techniques through semi-structured interviews and data analysis using thematic analysis techniques. The results of the study show that the self-efficacy of blind students is born from the support of parents and the campus environment. Parental support is a motivation for him to take music courses. Meanwhile, the campus environment makes him feel that he has social support and success in learning. The findings of this study can be a guide for music educators, music therapists, and policy makers in developing better inclusive music programs to increase confidence in playing music.

Sexual harassment can have long-term negative effects on victims, one of which is a decrease in self-compassion. A decline in self-compassion may hinder the achievement of individuals’ developmental tasks. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of feminist counseling services using expressive writing techniques to enhance self-compassion among students who are victims of sexual harassment. The research employed a quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest experimental design. The study population consisted of 60 students who had experienced sexual harassment. The data collection instrument used was a self-compassion scale developed by Kristin Neff and translated by Sugianto et al. The sample consisted of six female students with low levels of self-compassion who were selected using purposive sampling techniques. These six students received feminist group counseling interventions using expressive writing techniques over five sessions. Data were analyzed using the non-parametric Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test. The analysis yielded a Z value of -2.207 and an asymp. sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.027, which is lower than the alpha level of 0.05, indicating a significant increase in scores before and after the intervention. Therefore, it can be concluded that feminist group counseling with expressive writing techniques is effective in enhancing self-compassion among students who are victims of sexual harassment.

The advancement of information technology has significantly accelerated the dissemination of information, including harmful content such as pornography. This phenomenon raises concerns about the potential for pornography addiction among adolescents with unrestricted access to digital media. This study aims to analyze the level of pornography addiction tendencies among junior high school students and to explore the role of guidance and counseling services in addressing this issue. A mixed-methods approach was employed using an exploratory sequential design. Quantitative data were collected through a survey assessing the level of pornography addiction, while qualitative data were obtained through focus group discussions (FGD) with school counselors to examine implemented strategies and encountered challenges. Instruments included a pornography addiction scale and structured interview guidelines. Quantitative findings reveal that the majority of students (93.2%) fall into the low addiction tendency category, while 6.8% are in the moderate category. Qualitative results indicate that pornography addiction is driven by uncontrolled technological access, lack of supervision, and negative social influences. Although preventive efforts have been initiated through counseling services, their effectiveness remains limited due to insufficient support and inadequate facilities. The study recommends the development of educational media focused on enhancing adolescents’ self-control as a strategic intervention to prevent pornography addiction in secondary education contexts.

The effectiveness of clinical supervision in enhancing counselors' competencies in practicing Rational Emotive Behav-ior Counseling (REBC) remains largely unexplored. This study aims to evaluate and optimize the impact of clinical supervision on counselors' skills in REBC, particularly in developing diagnostic abilities, accuracy in disputing, and the effectiveness of technique implementation. A pre-experimental design with a quasi-experimental approach was employed. The instruments used included an REBC counseling competence evaluation and a counseling perfor-mance observation sheet. The data were analyzed descriptively.The results indicate that clinical supervision plays a significant role in improving counselors' competencies, especially in diagnostic skills, followed by an increase in dis-puting abilities. However, improvements in the effectiveness of technique implementation remain relatively low. A limited sample size is one of the constraints of this study in terms of generalizing the findings. Nevertheless, the de-scriptive results provide a reasonable overview of the impact of the supervision program on REBC counseling skills. Future research is recommended to consider sample dynamics, a time-series design, and consistency analysis through trend and graphical approaches.

The popularity of mobile online games among students has led to various social impacts, one of which is the decline in communication ethics during gameplay. Many students engage in inappropriate, aggressive, and impolite verbal interactions while playing, indicating weak digital ethical awareness among adolescents. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of behavioral counseling using participant modeling techniques to improve students’ communication ethics during online gaming activities. A quantitative approach with a One Group Pretest-Posttest Design experimental method was employed in this research. The study involved a population of 357 students, from which 10 students were purposively selected as research subjects based on their tendency to engage in unethical communication during gaming. Data were collected using a communication ethics scale questionnaire, and analyzed through a paired sample t-test. The findings revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores, with a sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000 < 0.05 and a t-value of 6.239 > 2.228. It can be concluded that the participant modeling technique is effective in fostering students’ ethical behavior in digital interactions during mobile gaming. This study implies that school counseling services should adopt this approach as an intervention model to cultivate students’ digital ethics.

The increasing use of the internet as a source of health information has given rise to the phenomenon of cyberchondria, characterized by excessive health information-seeking behavior that negatively impacts adolescent mental health. This phenomenon has become increasingly concerning, especially in the post-pandemic era, where health anxiety and exposure to unverified information have risen significantly. This study aims to analyze the psychological impact of cyberchondria on adolescents and to evaluate the role of school counseling services in preventing and managing its symptoms. The research employed a Systematic Literature Review method, guided by the PRISMA 2020 protocol. A total of 19 international articles published between 2013 and 2024 were analyzed, focusing on adolescents aged 12–18 years, with a combined sample of over 21,000 participants. Data were collected using a structured extraction form and analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that cyberchondria is closely associated with anxiety, family dysfunction, smartphone addiction, and a decline in psychological well-being. School-based counseling holds strategic potential in fostering digital health literacy and reducing maladaptive health information-seeking behaviors. Overall, these results highlight the need for a systemic approach within the education sector to address emerging adolescent mental health challenges driven by uncontrolled digital information consumption.

Motivational climate is a key socio-cognitive factor contributing to the success of adolescent athletes in their sports careers. Social agents such as parents, coaches, and peers play a significant role in shaping motivational climates that support the fulfillment of athletes’ psychological needs. This study aims to analyze the types of motivational climates established by the social environment of adolescent athletes, evaluate the contributing factors to their development, and examine the psychological impacts of these climates on adolescent athletes. This research employed a literature review method using the PRISMA approach and reviewed ten relevant scholarly articles. The findings reveal two primary types of motivational climate: mastery climate, which is task-oriented, and performance climate, which is ego-oriented. The development of these climates is influenced by the behavior of social agents, group dynamics, task structures, and both physical and psychological factors. A positive motivational climate enhances athletes' self-concept and supports the fulfillment of basic psychological needs, namely autonomy, competence, and relatedness. The study concludes that a well-established motivational climate can serve as a crucial psychological foundation for the sustainable development of adolescent athletes’ potential and performance.
