Low self-esteem in emerging adulthood can lead to various problems and maladaptive behaviors, one of which is nomophobia. This study aims to determine the effect of logotherapy on self-esteem in emerging adulthood with nomophobia. This study used the experimental design untreated control group design with dependent pre-test and post-test samples. The study subjects were 12 emerging adulthood aged 18 to 29 years with nomophobia, with self-esteem scores in the medium category. Subjects were divided into 2 groups, consisting of 6 experimental groups and 6 control groups.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an instrument/scale to measure family resilience. A sample of 265 families in the Special Region of Yogyakarta was established using the random sampling technique, with the criteria of families in the Yogyakarta area served by the Office of Religious Affair (KUA), and those who have the Pusaka Sakinah program (Sakinah Family Service Center). The data analysis used Aiken's V content validity coefficient and construct validity used Rasch model analysis. The results of Aiken's V coefficients by three experts show a value range of 0.802. This means that the items in the instrument have a high coefficient for measuring family resilience. In addition, the results of the Rasch model analysis show that the item person has a reliability of 0.97 and the item separation has a reliability of 6.03, which means that the measuring instrument has a good function because it has a range of varying degrees of difficulty. Meanwhile, the subject has a reliability of 0.91 and a person separation has a reliability of 3.17. This shows that the character of the subject varies according to the profile of the respondents who come from various educational backgrounds. All items are valid and reliable for measuring the right construct.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the development of research on work engagement in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) from 2020 to 2024 using a bibliometric approach. The method used is bibliometric analysis with the help of VOSviewer software for data visualization. Data was collected from the Dimensions database using the keywords "work engagement", "SMEs", and "Indonesia". The results show a significant increase in the number of publications and citations related to work engagement in SMEs during this period. Four main research clusters were identified: collaboration and communication, employee creativity and self-efficacy, innovative work behavior, and affective commitment and job satisfaction. Research trends have shifted from the basic concept of work engagement to its practical application in the context of digital transformation, innovation, and SME business sustainability. The COVID-19 pandemic has become a catalyst for research exploring the role of work engagement in SME resilience and adaptation. The need for further research integrating work engagement with contemporary issues such as digitalization and SME business resilience was revealed. The novelty of this research lies in the comprehensive analysis of work engagement research trends in Indonesian SMEs using a bibliometric approach, which has not been widely done before. This study provides a holistic mapping of the development of work engagement studies in SMEs and identifies future research directions.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas pelatihan problem-focused coping untuk mengurangi stres pada WBP kasus narkoba. Hipotesis yang diajukan dalam penelitian ini adalah adalah ada perbedaan tingkat stres pada WBP kasus narkoba sebelum dan setelah pemberian pelatihan problem-focused coping. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diketahui hasil perhitungan (z=-1,062b; p=0,288), yang berarti bahwa tidak ada perbedaan tingkat stres antara hasil pre test dengan post test. Dengan demikian H0 diterima dan H1 ditolak. Pelatihan problem-focused coping yang diberikan tidak mengurangi stres yang dialami oleh WBP kasus narkoba di Rutan Salatiga. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa problem-focused coping tidak cukup untuk mengurangi stres sehingga kemungkinan diperlukan kombinasi antara problem-focused coping dengan emotion-focused coping. Program pelatihan yang dibuat perlu lebih holistik dan komprehensif sehingga akan lebih efektif dalam mengurangi stres. Selain itu, diperlukan juga sistem evaluasi dan pemantauan untuk mengukur efektivitas pelatihan mengenai coping terhadap stres. Tidak adanya pengaruh pelatihan problem-focused coping terhadap stres pada hasil penelitian ini mendorong dilakukannya penelitian lebih lanjut dengan sampel yang lebih memadai dan pelatihan strategi coping yang lebih komprehensif.

Abstract

This study investigated the help-seeking attitude of undergraduates at the University of Ilorin Nigeria toward mental health issues. The study employed a descriptive survey design. A multistage sampling method was used in selecting a total of 400 participants. The demographic data and research questions were examined using percentage distribution. The hypotheses were tested using t-tests and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) statistical methods at a significance level of 0. 05. The help-seeking attitude of respondents towards mental health difficulties did not vary significantly based on gender. However, there were substantial differences depending on age, degree of study, and students' place of residence. The vast majority of undergraduates rather talk to friends and family about their mental health problems than seek psychotherapy or medical help. School counsellors need to educate students on the significance of seeking help from trained mental health professionals.

Abstract

In recent years, the use of social media and the internet has become an inseparable part of everyday life, especially among adolescents. Social media offers a variety of benefits, including ease of communication, access to information, and entertainment. However, concerns have emerged about its negative impact on mental health, especially in relation to self-harm behavior. Adolescents often imitate the trend of self-harm and join in posting the results of scratches on social media. The aim of this study was to determine variations in self-harm in adolescents which are related to the duration of internet use in one day and the use of social media. The research method uses a comparative descriptive approach and Two-Way ANOVA analysis to explore interactions between these variables. Data was collected through an online survey with a self-harm instrument consisting of 18 statements, with respondents choosing from 4 alternative answers available. The results of the analysis show that there are significant differences in self-harm behavior based on the duration of internet use per day and the type of social media used. Adolescents who use the TikTok platform show a higher self-harm score compared to other platforms, especially with longer duration of internet use. These findings indicate that the type and way of using social media has a significant influence on self-harm behavior.

Abstract

Adolescence, marked by significant changes, often leads to emotional tension and instability associated with alexithymia. This study aimed to validate the Indonesian version of the Adolescent Alexithymia Scale, hypothesizing that its internal structure was unidimensional. Participants included 70 adolescents aged 13 to 18 years (M_age = 16.44; SD = 1.44). Data were collected using the Indonesian version of the Adolescent Alexithymia Scale, consisting of 24 items representing the four alexithymia indicators. The results revealed that the scale has a unidimensional internal structure, with 11 valid items, and sufficient validity and reliability coefficients. These items collectively represent the four main characteristics of alexithymia. The most dominant indicator is the difficulty in identifying and distinguishing between feelings and emotional bodily sensations. This research implies that this scale needs to be tested on different populations and in different contexts.

Abstract

Emerging adulthood is a transitional period from adolescence to adulthood characterized by instability in roles and relationships as individuals navigate the demands of higher education, employment, intimate relationships, and self-identity formation. This transition often triggers various negative emotions, such as anxiety, distress, and self-doubt, particularly in women, making them more susceptible to engaging in emotional eating as a means of seeking temporary comfort or distraction. Emotional eating is a mechanism for temporary emotional relief, but feelings of regret or guilt often follow it. Emotion regulation skills are crucial when experiencing negative emotions. This study aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), an intervention designed to enhance emotion regulation skills, in reducing the occurrence of emotional eating among emerging adult women. The study employed a single case experiment design with two 21-year-old female participants experiencing emotional eating. The Emotional Eating Scale (EES) and emotional eating self-recording were used as measurement tools. Each participant received DBT over 7 sessions, each lasting 60-90 minutes. The results indicated that DBT reduced the frequency of emotional eating in both participants, with the effect persisting up to 14 days post-intervention. These findings suggest that DBT is an effective intervention for reducing emotional eating in emerging adult women.
