Abstract

The aims of this study are to examine the structure factor of Indonesian version of Individual Work Performance Questionnaire (IWPQ) and to test the construct of IWPQ by correlating with Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) as criterion. A total of 609 data from employees across Indonesia were involved in the research (Study 1 = 231, and Study 2 = 378). Data analysis was done using CFA to test the evidence validity based on internal structure and Pearson correlation to examine evidence of validity based on relation to other variables. This study confirmed the three-factor model of IWPQ in study 1 and study 2 with independent samples. The Indonesian version of the IWPQ also correlate positively with work engagement as criterion proving the evidence validity based on relation to others variable. The finding of this research strengthens the Indonesian version of IWPQ as a good tool in measuring work performance

Abstract

"Wrong major phenomena" are increasingly common these days. One reason is that students do not truly understand their personalities and the activities to which they are naturally inclined. Therefore, assessing career interests is crucial for high school students aspiring to continue their studies at university. Holland's Structure of Interest is one vocational interest construct used for assessment tools that could help solve this problem by identifying interest types that align with job characteristics. Unfortunately, psychological assessment services are limited in Indonesia. Integrated vocational interest website development must be undertaken so that people can access these psychological services more widely and minimize human error. The website development method refers to the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). A prototype version of the Integrated Vocational Interest website could provide job and major recommendations to students based on their interest types. These results indicate that the vocational interest website has great potential to help students avoid the "wrong major" phenomenon.

Abstract

Marriage readiness is considered an important issue to be studied. The high rates of marital problems which impact social issues have been attributed to the lack of marriage readiness. Number of studies have tried to define and explain marriage readiness indices. However, there are various limitations due to how this concept is very much influenced by cultural factors, as is the case in Indonesia which is famous for its variety of cultures in every region. This study was conducted to make a comparison between perceived marriage readiness between Javanese people, as the representation of the largest population in Indonesia and regions outside Java as the comparison group. Data was collected using open-ended surveys with 207 participants coming from all over Indonesia. The results were analyzed using thematic coding which describes marriage readiness factors and personal perception of marriage readiness among Indonesians. Implications for this study are discussed, especially for evaluation and development of existing marital guidance programs in Indonesia.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact worldwide, affecting various aspects of life. One prominent group affected by these circumstances are homemakers"”usually women"”who bear substantial domestic responsibilities, including childcare, household chores, and family caregiving. The multitude of challenges they face can have implications for their mental well-being. This study aims to ascertain the levels of depression, anxiety, and stress among homemakers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data collection employed the DASS-42 scale, a validated tool for measuring depression, anxiety, and stress. The study participants consisted of 88 homemakers with children. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive analysis. Results indicated that a percentage of homemakers experienced normal levels of depression (28.41%), anxiety (14.77%), and stress (37.5%). Additionally, varying degrees of depression, anxiety, and stress were present, ranging from mild to severe. These findings underscore the necessity of addressing mental health challenges specific to homemakers. Implementing support programs tailored to alleviate the mental well-being challenges faced by this demographic is crucial.

Abstract

Managing classroom behavior is a global challenge, with disruptive actions like talking out of turn and physically disturbing peers undermining both teaching effectiveness and the learning experience. Traditional disciplinary methods often fall short, sometimes exacerbating the very behaviors they aim to curb. This study introduces a novel approach: storytelling-based play therapy, designed to reduce specific disruptive behaviors within the classroom. Focusing on an 8-year-old child identified as frequently disruptive, the intervention involved four consecutive days of 30-minute storytelling sessions, each crafted to enhance social skills, empathy, and self-regulation. The results were compelling a 25% reduction in talking out of turn and a dramatic 62.5% decrease in physical disturbances. These findings suggest that storytelling is not only an engaging and non-punitive strategy but also one that can bring about significant behavioral improvements. While the study's single-subject design limits generalizability, the promising outcomes open the door for further research across diverse educational settings. This research underscores the potential of storytelling as a transformative tool in classroom management, offering educators a creative and effective alternative to conventional disciplinary practices. By fostering a more positive and inclusive environment, storytelling could become a cornerstone of modern behavior management strategies in schools.

Abstract

Individuals with agoraphobia disorder tend to be afraid of being in open spaces and have difficulty leaving the house and driving alone. Systematic desensitization is one of the treatments considered effective in treating agoraphobia. The case study aims to determine the application of systematic desensitization in patients with agoraphobia through a single case study design. The participant was a 28-year-old female patient diagnosed with agoraphobia. Systematic desensitization intervention is carried out by following the steps of relaxation exercises, arranging anxiety hierarchies, and gradual exposure to the anxiety sources. The main measurement is carried out through the patient's self-report SUDS (Subjective Units of Discomfort Scale) score for each source of anxiety about open space. The results showed a change in SUDS scores before and after systematic desensitization. Discussion and limitations about this case study are provided for practitioners and researchers interested in systematic desensitization, supported by the explanation of the intervention stages.

Abstract

Unemployed individuals are highly susceptible to depressive disorders that impact their cognitive dynamics. Rumination, commonly observed in individuals with depressive disorders, reinforces depressive affect. Addressing rumination is crucial for cognitive management, ultimately alleviating depressive symptoms. This single-case study investigates the effectiveness of rumination-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (RFCBT) on a 24-year-old unemployed female. Assessments involved interviews, observations, the PHQ-9, and EPPS, followed by 10 intervention sessions, including 8 therapy sessions. Post-intervention results, measured using the Reliability Change Indicator (RCI) on pre-and post-treatment PHQ-9 scores, demonstrated a significant score reduction of 17 points (89.47%). Descriptive data from semi-structured interviews corroborated these findings.

Abstract

Digital mental health platforms are increasingly emerging. These platforms provide psychological interventions and offer mental health-related content through their social media accounts on Instagram. While this content can raise awareness about mental health, it may also lead to misunderstandings and increase the risk of self-diagnosis. A recent study utilized content analysis to describe the characteristics of mental health-related content on Instagram. The results showed that the most dominant content category is romantic and family relationships, followed by life problems and psychological disorders, recovery and self-love, social media engagement, psychological knowledge, and finally, work and social relationships as the smallest category. Further investigation into science-based content is needed.
