Abstract

Parents have to nurture a good relationship with adolescents to avert self-harmful behavior and suicidal ideation, which increasingly happen. This research aims to understand the effect of parent-child relationships on self-harm behavior and suicidal ideation. The subjects of this study are 1063 junior high school (JHS) and senior high school (SHS) students in Tarakanita Foundation (TF). This research is a double linear regression based on the t-test and f-test, which use the t-table and f-table. This research shows a significant effect between parent-child relationships and self-harmful behavior. A good, safe, and loving relationship with parents can prevent adolescents from self-harmful behavior and suicidal ideation. On the other hand, a disharmonious relationship between parents and adolescents, such as an experience of violence, feeling depressed, and a traumatic experience in the family, is why adolescents harm themselves and have suicidal ideation. Based on this study, parents are expected to nurture a good relationship with their children. The benefit of research is that it provides parents with a good understanding of the dangers of self-harm behavior and how to handle it appropriately by parents or professionals who can help parents deal with self-harm behavior in their adolescence. This research is also useful as the information that the importance of building strong and healthy relationships with children is becoming increasingly important; thus, appropriate behavior.

Abstract

Psychological wellbeing is crucial for adults, as it impacts their mental and physical health, social relationships, work, personal growth, resilience, and overall life satisfaction. The objective of this study is to thoroughly examine the correlation between gratitude and its dimensions with the psychological wellbeing of adult women, with meaning of life as a mediator. Participants in this study were 270 middle-aged women aged between 40-60 years, Muslim, and domiciled in Padang Terubuk Village, Senapelan Sub-district, Pekanbaru City, Riau Province using incidental sampling technique. The measurement instruments used were the psychological wellbeing scale, gratitude scale, and meaning of life scale. The data analysis technique used was mediation regression analysis using bootstrapping of the PROCESS macro-Hayes. The research results indicate that gratitude can positively contribute to psychological wellbeing, both directly and when mediated by meaning of life. The contribution of gratitude to psychological wellbeing is greater when mediated by meaning of life compared to when correlated directly. This implies that when individuals express gratitude for their lives, their lives become more meaningful, ultimately resulting in psychological wellbeing.

Abstract

Direct elections do not always run well. The aggressiveness of political partisans, who are sometimes hostile – swearing and verbally blaspheming one another on social media – during the campaign triggers a wider public conflict. Teenagers play an active role as novice voters in elections, yet verbal aggression of social conflicts on social media is prone to occur. This study is a multi-year research. In the first year, it mapped down the verbal aggression tendencies of young voters in Indonesia using literature and explanatory studies. It examined the theory and identified factors inducing polite behaviors. It was conducted in several areas around East Java for 6 months. The respondents in this study comprised 500 novice voters from designated provinces, with 100 samples from each. This quantitative research instrument involved verbal aggression, positive thinking, and positive communication as instruments analyzed and measured according to compatible measuring instruments. The study results indicated that teenagers who make the most of logic and common sense in thinking are not susceptible, especially to things that don't make sense. Logic teenagers prefer to ignore bad thoughts. Consequently, they hold a high sense of empathy once communicating, are calm, and tough to be emotionally provoked.

Abstract

The concept of social entrepreneurship has gained popularity in Indonesia. However, there has been a lack of development in measuring individuals' readiness or interest in social entrepreneurship within the Indonesian context. Based on a literature review, there are no existing studies that have translated and adapted instruments to measure the antecedents of social entrepreneurship for students. One such instrument, the Social Entrepreneurial Antecedents Scale (SEAS), was originally developed to assess social entrepreneurial intentions. This study aims to adapt the scale, especially for students in tertiary institutions for 131 students. Following Beaton's theoretical framework, the research was conducted in six stages: translation, synthesis, back translation, expert committee review, pre-testing, and assessment. The construct validity of the adapted scale was analyzed through confirmatory factor analysis using JAMOVI, focusing on four aspects of social entrepreneurship: empathy, moral obligation, self-efficacy, and social support. The adapted scale, which consists of 14 items, has a reliability coefficient of 0.835. Item discrimination for these 14 items ranged from 0.207 to 0.684. Based on the adaptation process results, this sociopreneurship scale is valid for measuring social entrepreneurial intentions and evaluating the effectiveness of interventions aimed at fostering such intentions.

Abstract

Manual performance appraisal techniques are not adaptive to developments in information technology, and this is considered a flaw. This study aims to create and evaluate the e-MBO performance assessment system. This study was conducted in The Palembang Therapy Center (PTC). The sample consisted of 21 employees who were selected using purposive sampling techniques. Employees who have been working for at least a year were the inclusion criteria. Furthermore, this study uses a research and development (R&D) methodology referring to the Richey & Klein concept, consisting of model development, internal validation, and external validation. The R&D results found that there were no issues when using the e-MBO employee performance assessment approach. Therefore, the research hypothesis stating that the e-MBO instrument effectively assesses employee performance is accepted. Furthermore, effective implementation of e-MBO can improve employee performance. The e-MBO assessment system can enhance employee performance through improved accuracy, discipline, work quality, and technical skills.

Abstract

The study was on master students’ perception on plagiarism during research writing in the Faculty of Education. This study answered and tested four research questions and six hypotheses at a 0.05 significant level. The study used Imo State University (IMSU) and the University of Port Harcourt (UPH), a descriptive survey design, 276 master students’ population, and a sample size of 95 students drawn through a stratified random sampling technique. The instrument was a 37-item Questionnaire on Ethical Issues and Plagiarism in the Faculty of Education (QETPFE) with a 0.85 reliability index. Data analyses were done through the Statistical Package for Social Sciences using mean, standard deviation, percentage, and t-tests. The findings showed that the master’s students in the Faculty of Education at IMSU and UPH have positive perceptions of the ethical rules governing people’s work usage during thesis writing; the perception differed significantly based on gender but was insignificant on an institutional basis. Their plagiarism consequences awareness level was high, irrespective of gender and institution. The male and female students in the Faculty of Education of both universities can paraphrase referenced materials themselves without paying someone for it and use online paraphrasing tools to re-write referenced materials in their theses. The findings implied that female students are more prone to plagiarism than male students. The recommendation, among others, was that postgraduate lecturers emphasize the need for male and female students to adhere strictly to the ethical standards governing other authors’ intellectual property usage. Keywords: Ethical issues, intellectual property, plagiarism, plagiarism checking tools, and research writing.

Abstract

Although public organizations have an important role, facts show that there are problems with their performance. One concept that can be used as a solution to the performance of public organizations is authentic followership. This study aimed to investigate the influence of authentic leadership on authentic followership mediated by secure attachment of followers. The research method used was a survey with a sample of 197 members of a public organization in East Java. The analysis used a measurement and structural model analysis using SmartPLS software version 3. The results showed the influence of authentic leadership on secure attachment of followers (0.341*). In addition, the secure attachment of followers affected authentic followership (0.364*). Authentic leadership also influenced authentic followership, mediated by followers' secure attachment (0.124*). This research can provide a conceptual foundation and theoretical discourse on the influence of authentic leadership and followers' secure attachment to authentic followership in public organizations.
