Abstract

University students often face challenges to their resilience due to factors like academic pressure. These stressors can lead to mental health issues like anxiety and depression, highlighting the need for resilience-building strategies. Previous studies in Indonesia and worldwide have demonstrated that social support and emotion-regulation strategies significantly influence academic resilience among university students. However, no study has explored the mediating role within the interrelationships among these variables, particularly the mediating role of multi-aspect emotion regulation constructs, namely cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression. This study aims to evaluate the mediating roles of these two aspects of emotion regulation in the relationship between social support and academic resilience among Indonesian university students. The respondents consisted of 219 students aged between 17 and 33 years (M = 21.219, SD = 2.013). These respondents were recruited using a nonprobability sampling technique. They completed instruments measuring social support, emotion regulation, and academic resilience. The correlational analysis provided initial evidence supporting the relationships among social support, emotion regulation, and academic resilience. Path analysis showed that mediation analysis revealed cognitive reappraisal significantly explained the variance in the relationship between social support and academic resilience through partial mediation. In contrast, expressive suppression did not show a significant mediating role. Overall, the results suggest a relationship between social support and academic resilience, indicating that positive social support enhances cognitive reappraisal and thereby increases students' academic resilience. The implications of this study suggest that social support and emotional regulation are crucial factors in improving the academic resilience of Indonesian students, and these findings can serve as a valuable reference for educators and policymakers. Keywords: Academic resilience, emotion regulation, mediation, social support, university students

Abstract

The rapid integration of social media into students’ academic, social, and personal lives underscores the need for valid and reliable instruments to assess social media competence. Understanding this competence is crucial, as social media is not only a communication tool but also a source of information, a space for self-expression, and a domain for identity formation. This study aimed to adapt and validate the Social Media Competence Scale for College Students (SMC-CS) into Bahasa Indonesia. The adaptation process followed standardized cross-cultural procedures, including translation, expert review for content validity, conceptual alignment, and pilot testing. A total of 728 university students aged 17–25 years from various Indonesian institutions participated in this study. Data analysis was conducted using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) with the MLM estimator to address multivariate non-normality. The Indonesian version of the SMC-CS demonstrated a four-factor structure—Technical Usability, Content Interpretation, Content Generation, and Affective Regulation—with strong reliability (CR > 0.83) and acceptable convergent validity (AVE ≥ 0.47). These findings provide evidence that the adapted instrument is both valid and reliable for assessing college students’ social media competence in the Indonesian context. Keywords: College students, confirmatory factor analysis, cross-cultural adaptation, social media competence scale.

Abstract

This study explored strategies to enhance learning motivation among psychology students in the Statistics course at Airlangga University. Many students initially perceived statistics as a difficult and irrelevant subject, often causing anxiety and disengagement. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered from five students through semi-structured interviews and were analyzed thematically. The findings revealed five central themes: students’ negative initial perceptions of statistics, the importance of connecting statistical concepts to real-world psychological practice, the role of peer and lecturer support in maintaining emotional engagement, the effectiveness of interactive and visual learning methods, and the use of personal strategies such as self-reflection and goal setting. These results underscore the importance of fostering autonomy, competence, and social relatedness in academic settings, suggesting that motivational challenges in complex courses such as Statistics can be addressed through humanistic and contextually relevant learning strategies.

Abstract

This narrative review explores how Muslim parents of children with disabilities draw on religious coping (RC) to navigate parenting challenges. The literature search covered three major international databases and manual sources, yielding 136 articles published between 2011 and 2025. In the end, 13 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. The quality and narrative suitability of the articles were evaluated using the SANRA (Scale for the Assessment of Narrative Review Articles) protocol. The review identified three main themes: (1) the types of RC strategies used by Muslim parents, (2) the factors influencing their use of RC, and (3) the impact of RC on well-being and parenting practices. Overall, RC plays an essential role in helping Muslim parents adapt, manage stress, cultivate inner peace, and maintain a sense of meaning and hope in their parenting journey. It also supports the development of positive attitudes, strengthens moral responsibility, and enhances overall well-being. This review underscores the importance of integrating religious perspectives into psychosocial support for families of children with disabilities in Muslim communities.

Abstract

The growing participation of mothers in the workforce in Indonesia is increasing the demand for external support in managing both family and occupational responsibilities. Grandparental participation in childcare represents a potential form of support even though the positive effects can be mediated rather than direct. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the role of parenting stress as a mediator in the relationship between grandparental support and work-family conflict (WFC) among working mothers. The adoption of the quantitative method led to the collection of data specifically using online questionnaires. The samples consisted of 174 working mothers aged 21–50 years across Indonesia who had children aged 0–12 years and received a minimum of 12 hours of childcare support per week from grandparents selected through a purposive sampling method. The questionnaires were filled out through the modified Parenting Support Scale, the WFC Scale, and the Parental Stress Scale. The data were analyzed using PROCESS Macro v4.3 by Hayes and the results showed that the parenting support from grandparents significantly reduced parenting stress and subsequently lowered WFC. Parenting stress also fully mediated the relationship between the support from grandparents and WFC. These results emphasized the importance of extended family support particularly from grandparents in mitigating psychological burdens and facilitating work-life integration among working mothers in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the extent to which religious identity and past experience of political participation can explain individuals' intention to vote in the 2024 general election in Indonesia. A total of 320 respondents were recruited through convenience sampling techniques in Bandung and Cimahi. The results show that only the religiocentrism dimension was positively associated with the intention to vote, while other dimensions such as religious practice and intratextual fundamentalism were negatively related. In addition, the results showed that the experience of political participation in the past was not positively related to the intention to vote in the 2024 general election. This could be explained through religiocentrism’s tendency to encourage individuals to view their religious ingroup as better than religious outgroups, leading them to choose leaders who align with the values of their religious identity. On the other hand, past experience of political participation might have caused individual disappointment with political practices in Indonesia which are still tainted by corruption and nepotism, so they felt that their political participation had no significant impact. These findings provided a new perspective on individual’s intention to use their political rights in Indonesian general election.
