Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

Dating violence or violence in dating relationships is a serious problem faced in the context of romantic relationships. This study aims to analyze the mental health of adolescents aged 13-22 years who experience dating violence. Using a descriptive phenomenological research design, this study collected data through in-depth interviews and observations of participants who had experienced various forms of violence in romantic relationships. The number of participants in this study was 6 people. The data collection process in this study used data triangulation, namely interview and observation techniques. The findings show that dating violence has a significant impact on adolescent mental health, which is reflected in increased levels of anxiety, depression, and other emotional disorders. In addition, adolescents involved in such relationships often have difficulty in building healthy social relationships and have negative views of themselves. This study provides important insights into the importance of psychological support and appropriate interventions for adolescents facing similar situations.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

The Inadequacy Evaluation Model Analysis shows several significant gaps between expected standards and the actual implementation of guidance and counseling services in schools. These include incomplete needs assessments, unplanned service topics, limited time allocation for service delivery, an imbalance in the counselor-to-student ratio, inadequate counseling room facilities, unstructured service evaluations, the absence of formal evaluation reports, and counselors being assigned additional roles outside their core responsibilities. These findings highlight the urgent need for systemic improvements, including better planning, resource allocation, role clarification, and institutional support to enhance the effectiveness of guidance and counseling programs in schools.

Abstract

Identity negotiation is a crucial process in the development of adolescent self-concept, particularly when disrupted by parental divorce. This study aims to explore the dynamics of identity negotiation among adolescents involved in criminal behavior following family separation, and to identify the key factors influencing this process. A qualitative approach with a case study method was employed to gain in-depth insights into participants’ lived experiences. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observation involving four male adolescents undergoing rehabilitation due to their involvement in criminal cases. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify meaningful patterns in the identity negotiation process. The findings reveal that parental divorce triggers identity disorientation, characterized by social withdrawal, decreased motivation, and deviant behavior. Identity negotiation occurs in two directions: a negative trajectory involving internalized conflict and delinquency, and a positive trajectory marked by self-reflection and efforts toward personal growth. Contributing factors include emotional instability, lack of parental affection, peer influence, and economic hardship. These results highlight the need for comprehensive psychosocial interventions to support adolescents in navigating post-divorce identity formation and prevent maladaptive behavioral outcomes.
