Abstract

Cultural humility is central to culturally responsive school counselling, yet its assessment often relies on counselors’ self-reports and rarely incorporates students’ perspectives. This cross-sectional study examined cultural humility among junior-high-school guidance and counselling (BK) teachers in Palu City, Indonesia, by integrating counselor self-reports (N = 57) and student evaluations (N = 240). Internal consistency was acceptable for the Multidimensional Cultural Humility Scale (MCHS; α = 0.816) and the Cultural Humility Scale for Students (CHS-S; α = 0.876 for Positive CH and 0.836 for Negative CH). Descriptive analyses showed that counselors rated their cultural humility in the high range, whereas students evaluated it in the moderate range. Spearman correlations showed that all counselor-rated MCHS dimensions were significantly associated with the total score, as was Positive CH, with self-awareness showing the strongest association among the counselor-rated dimensions; Negative CH was not significantly associated with the total score, indicating a distinct pattern within the student-reported measure. After both sets of scores were linearly rescaled to a common 0–100 metric, the Mann–Whitney U test showed a significant counselor–student difference with a large effect (U = 536.000, Z = −10.842, p < .001, r = .63). This discrepancy underscores the relational and feedback-sensitive nature of cultural humility. The comparatively weaker position of self-reflection and critique highlights the need for critical reflexivity, reflective supervision, and systematic student feedback in professional development. Limitations include the cross-sectional design, use of different instruments across informant groups, and absence of matched counselor–student dyads. Overall, the findings indicate that integrating student voice with counselor self-report provides a more balanced basis for assessing and strengthening culturally responsive school counselling.

Abstract

Academic stress is a common psychological problem among students that can arise from academic demands, such as the large number of assignments, demands to complete assignments on time, pressure to achieve good grades, and high academic expectations. This study aimed to examine the relationships of self-efficacy and social support with academic stress among students of MAN Insan Cendekia Padang Pariaman, Indonesia. This study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 140 Grade X and XI students selected using proportional random sampling. The sampling criteria included students in Grades X and XI who were officially enrolled at MAN Insan Cendekia Padang Pariaman during the 2025/2026 academic year. Data were collected using Likert-type scales measuring self-efficacy, social support, and academic stress and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The results showed that self-efficacy was in the low category (M = 86.18; SD = 19.50), social support was in the low category (M = 71.84; SD = 17.30), and academic stress was in the high category (M = 131.74; SD = 28.90). Self-efficacy was negatively and significantly related to academic stress (R = 0.501; R² = 0.251; p < 0.001), indicating that self-efficacy explained 25.1% of the variance in academic stress. Social support was also negatively and significantly related to academic stress (R = 0.403; R² = 0.163; p < 0.001), explaining 16.3% of the variance. Furthermore, self-efficacy and social support simultaneously showed a significant relationship with academic stress (R = 0.559; R² = 0.313; F = 56.637; p < 0.001). These findings indicate that higher self-efficacy and social support are associated with lower academic stress. The findings provide empirical support for the development of guidance and counseling services aimed at strengthening students' self-efficacy and social support to help them manage academic demands more adaptively.

Abstract

The digitalization of zakat introduces new challenges in understanding muzakki behavior, particularly as normative–fiqh approaches continue to dominate zakat studies and assume that religious commitment automatically leads to zakat compliance, including through digital platforms. This assumption becomes increasingly problematic amid economic uncertainty that generates financial anxiety and influences religio-economic decision-making. This study aims to analyze digital zakat behavior from the perspective of Islamic economic psychology by focusing on the relationship between religious commitment and financial anxiety in the context of zakat digitalization. The research specifically examines the tension between normative religious rationality and the psychological dynamics experienced by muzakki when facing financial risk and the need for economic security. Employing a qualitative approach with a normative–conceptual design, this study utilizes systematic literature review, qualitative content analysis, and thematic analysis. The findings indicate that religiosity functions as a primary moral–spiritual motivation; however, its influence on digital zakat behavior is conditional and mediated by financial anxiety. These results underscore the importance of integrating Maqāṣid al-Sharī‘ah and Islamic economic psychology in the formulation of digital zakat policies and practices that are more contextual, responsive, and psychologically informed.
