Abstract

Violence against children has both physical and psychological impacts on their development. Perpetrators of verbal abuse are often caregivers or close relatives living in the same household as the child. The objective of the study is to analyse the relationship between sociodemographic factors and parental verbal abuse. The method uses a cross-sectional approach. Convenience sampling was used to select 225 samples. Data analysis with chi-square test, simple logistic regression, and multiple logistic regression. The result of parental verbal abuse was significantly related to the family income, mother's occupation, and ethnicity (p < 0.05). Odds ratio (OR) 4.6, ethnicity from outside Java has five times the effect on verbal abuse than ethnicity from Java. Conclusions: family income, ethnicity, and the mother’s occupation are factors that can predict the incidence of parental verbal abuse. Religious institutions or religious communities, basic education institutions, and community health centers need to be encouraged to conduct parenting classes to prevent parental verbal abuse. In addition, family intervention is needed to decrease parental verbal abuse. The research findings contribute to public mental health. Practical implications include preventive and promotive actions by healthcare professionals, such as health education. The social implications of this research provide an understanding of the prevalence of parental verbal abuse in families, a practice that families may not fully understand regarding the limits of parenting that involves violence.

Abstract

This research was conducted based on the increasing cases of violence against women and children, which often cause psychological impacts, particularly anxiety among victims. Therefore, appropriate mentoring and mental health strengthening strategies are needed to help children express emotions and reduce anxiety effectively. This research aims to determine the results of mentoring and strengthening the mental health of women and child victims of violence through picture cards to reduce anxiety in the city of South Tangerang, Indonesia. This research uses a research method based on Participatory Action Research (PAR), a research method that involves active participation from the community or target group in each stage of the research, considering collaboration between researchers and participants (P2TP2A volunteers and parents) to jointly identify problems, design interventions, take action, and reflect on the results. Data collection for preliminary study activities was carried out through interviews and observation methods with 15 children and parents who had children aged 5-12 years at the Women's Empowerment Service, Child Protection, Population Control and Family Planning (DP3AP2KB), South Tangerang City. The results of the research explain that picture cards used to identify victims of violence against women and children can help reduce anxiety. The media developed picture cards that help children express their anxiety through stories. The picture card media consists of two groups. The first group consists of seven cards used to identify children's anxiety, while the second group consists of six cards containing strategies for reducing anxiety. The images on the picture cards are based on anxiety grids and anxiety theories. The anxiety material written in the guidebook also helps parents understand anxiety more deeply. With language that can be directly conveyed to children, it becomes easier for parents to deliver the material, and the anxiety strategy cards have been developed to teach activities that can help children reduce anxiety.

Abstract

Sexual awareness is an important component of adolescent health education, particularly in institutional environments where discussions related to sexuality may be culturally sensitive. Islamic boarding schools represent a context in which preventive and culturally appropriate educational approaches are needed to support adolescents’ understanding of personal boundaries and sexual safety. This study examined the preliminary effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)–based group counseling in improving sexual awareness among female adolescents in an Islamic boarding school setting. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design was used. Twenty-two female students aged 12–15 years were allocated into an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group participated in six structured CBT-based group counseling sessions focusing on cognitive restructuring, self-awareness, assertiveness, and behavioral reflection, while the control group received no intervention. Sexual awareness was measured using the Sexual Awareness Questionnaire before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using an independent samples t-test. Results indicated a statistically significant difference between groups, with the intervention group demonstrating higher posttest sexual awareness scores compared with the control group, t(20) = 3.158, p = .005. These findings suggest that CBT-based group counseling may support improvements in sexual awareness among female adolescents in religious educational settings. Further research with larger samples and longer follow-up periods is recommended to strengthen evidence for effectiveness.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of perceived social support and emotion regulation on the psychological well-being of teachers in an Islamic boarding school (pesantren) context. The study employed a quantitative cross-sectional design involving 264 permanent teachers from an integrated Islamic boarding school foundation in East Java, Indonesia. Data were collected using three standardized instruments: Ryff’s Scales of Psychological Well-Being (42 items), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support/MSPSS (12 items), and the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire/ERQ (10 items). Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression after all classical assumptions were met. The results revealed that perceived social support and emotion regulation simultaneously had a positive and significant effect on teachers’ psychological well-being, with an F value of 160.358 and p < 0.001. The coefficient of determination indicated that these two variables explained 64.9% of the variance in psychological well-being (R = 0.806; R² = 0.649). These findings demonstrate that the psychological well-being of pesantren teachers is shaped not only by internal personal resources but also by supportive social environments. Therefore, strengthening social support and providing emotion regulation training are important strategies for promoting teachers’ mental health and sustaining educational quality in pesantren settings.

Abstract

The reliance on artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education raises questions about its impact on students' critical thinking. This study aims to examine the mediating role of self-regulation (SR) in the relationship between AI dependency (AID) and critical thinking (CTh) among university students with a total of 112 respondents, 35 male students and 77 female students, with an average age of 24 years old. Correlation analysis revealed no direct relationship between AI dependency (AID) and critical thinking (CTh), but AID showed a significant correlation with self-regulation (SR), and SR was strongly correlated with critical thinking (CTh). Mediation analysis demonstrated that SR partially mediating the relationship between AID and CTh, indicating that the impact of AI dependency on critical thinking depends on its influence on self-regulation. These findings align with prior research highlighting the critical role of self-regulation in technology-based learning. Further research is recommended to explore in more depth the role of self-regulation as a variable that may influence the relationship between AI use and potential dependency.

Abstract

These difficulties are further exacerbated by the suboptimal implementation of group guidance and counseling services, particularly in facilitating academic decision-making processes that incorporate Islamic family values as moral and spiritual foundations. This study aims to analyze strategies for enhancing group counseling services based on Islamic family values in assisting students with academic decision-making related to the selection of university study programs. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using interviews, observations, documentation, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) involving school principals, guidance and counseling counselors, and experts in Islamic guidance and counseling. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The findings indicate that the integration of Islamic family values such as shura (consultation), amanah (trustworthiness), ta’awun (mutual assistance), and maslahah (public benefit) strengthens students’ self-reflection, enhances their confidence in making independent decisions, and improves academic communication between students and parents. This study recommends the development of an Islamic family values–based group counseling model and the implementation of career planning program.

Abstract

Recent graduates face significant challenges during the transition to the workforce, which requires a strong adversity quotient (AQ). The purpose of the study is to evaluate social support and self-efficacy as determinants of recent graduates in Toraja, South Sulawesi. This study employed a quantitative correlational research design. The population consisted of fresh graduates residing in Toraja, with a total sample of 196 participants. Data were collected using the Adversity Quotient Scale, the General Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to test the simultaneous predictive effects of self-efficacy and social support on adversity quotient. The findings revealed that self-efficacy and social support simultaneously and significantly predicted the adversity quotient of fresh graduates. Both variables showed positive contributions, indicating that higher levels of self-efficacy and perceived social support were associated with higher levels of adversity quotient. These results underscore the combined importance of internal belief systems and external support networks in enhancing resilience among fresh graduates. The study provides empirical evidence from a specific regional context and highlights the need for interventions that strengthen both personal competence and social support systems during the transition to the workforce.

Abstract

Suicide is a serious problem in society and has now become a global concern. Although suicide is a serious public health issue, it can be prevented with the right interventions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a psychological intervention that is quite effective in reducing suicidal ideation; however, the limited availability of psychologists prevents this method from reaching a wider audience. These conditions present an opportunity for the use of internet-based CBT as an alternative for addressing suicidal tendencies among Gen Z. This study was conducted to evaluate the Digital CBT program (Mindspace Program) for preventing suicidal tendencies in Gen Z. Web-based psychological interventions will enhance the accessibility and reach of the program. The research subjects were 10 Gen Z individuals, aged 22–26 years. This study employed a one-group pre-test - post-tests design with the Mindspace Programme as the intervention. The research instrument utilized the Suicide Tendency Scale, administered during the pre-test, post-tests, and follow-up. The results were analyzed using a paired samples t-test, revealing a significant difference in suicidal tendencies among the participants before and after receiving Digital CBT, with a t-value of 5.137 (p < 0.01). Suicidal tendencies were lower after Digital CBT (mean: 29.00) compared to before Digital CBT (mean: 37.46). These findings imply that digital CBT is an effective alternative for addressing suicidal tendencies among Gen Z and serves as an evidence-based intervention.

Abstract

This article examines a fundamental problem in family law practice that remains dominated by normative– procedural approaches and assumptions of legal rationality, resulting in insufficient sensitivity to the psychological conditions of survivors of domestic violence (DV). The central issue addressed is how trauma, fear, and unequal power relations influence survivors’ legal behavior and decision-making within family court proceedings. This study aims to integrate perspectives from trauma psychology into family law analysis in order to develop a more contextualized and justice-oriented understanding of survivors’ legal conduct. The research employs a qualitative method with a normative–conceptual and analytical design, drawing on statutory regulations, Islamic family law, court decisions, and a systematic review of literature in trauma psychology and legal psychology. The findings demonstrate that survivors’ legal behaviors—often perceived as ambivalent, hesitant, or inconsistent—can be rationally explained through the frameworks of trauma bonding, fear conditioning, and coping mechanisms. These results highlight that the failure of legal systems to account for trauma dynamics risks reproducing bias, retraumatization, and substantive injustice. Accordingly, this study recommends the development of a trauma-informed family law psychology model as a foundation for reforming family court practices toward a more empathetic and survivor- responsive justice system.

Abstract

Qur’an memorization programs in Islamic schools play an important role in developing students’ intellectual and spiritual balance. However, the consistency of students in memorizing the Qur’an is often influenced by social interaction dynamics, particularly negative peer influence that may reduce motivation and discipline in memorization activities. This study aims to develop and examine the feasibility of a Counseling Guidance module based on Social Learning Theory (SLT) integrated with the local cultural values of Tari Godril as a strategy to reduce negative peer influence among Tahfidz students at MAN Lumajang. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. The research subjects were Tahfidz students of class X-C at MAN Lumajang who participated in small group trials and field trials. Data were collected through observations, interviews, documentation, expert validation questionnaires, and student response questionnaires. The results of expert validation indicated that the module was categorized as very valid with material feasibility of 88%, language feasibility of 85%, design feasibility of 84%, and practicality of use by practitioners of 90%. Students’ responses to the developed module also showed a very positive category with an average percentage of 86.25%. The integration of Social Learning Theory with the philosophical values of Tari Godril strengthens the contextual relevance of counseling services within the cultural environment of the students. These findings confirm that the developed counseling module is feasible to implement as an innovative counseling strategy to help Tahfidz students manage negative peer influence and maintain consistency in memorizing the Qur’an.
