Abstract

This study examined changes in off-task behavior among junior high school students through self-monitoring combined with reinforcement. Using a quantitative single-subject design with a multiple baseline across participants model, three students who frequently displayed off-task behavior during learning activities were selected through initial observation and teacher recommendation. The intervention involved identifying target behavior, recording focused and unfocused behavior, and providing verbal praise, positive feedback, and simple rewards when students reduced off-task behavior. Data were collected using an observation sheet and students’ self-monitoring sheets, then analyzed descriptively and visually across baseline, intervention, and follow-up phases. The results showed decreased off-task behavior across all subjects: Subject 1 from 9 to 3, Subject 2 from 10 to 4, and Subject 3 from 11 to 4. These findings indicate that self-monitoring with reinforcement can support the reduction of off-task behavior and increase students’ behavioral engagement during classroom learning.

Abstract

The increasing prevalence of psychological problems highlights the need for interventions that address both psychological symptoms and spiritual dimensions. This study aimed to synthesize the models, implementation, outcomes, and contributions of Islamic mindfulness interventions in strengthening psychological well-being. A systematic literature review was conducted using established reporting guidelines for systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Eleven articles published between 2021 and 2024 were retrieved from Google Scholar, Crossref, and Scopus via Publish or Perish and analyzed using descriptive synthesis. The findings indicate that Islamic mindfulness was associated with reduced anxiety, depression, and fatigue and with improved resilience, religiosity, self-efficacy, caring behavior, and psychological well-being across diverse populations and delivery formats. However, only one study directly measured psychological well-being, while the others examined related outcomes. These findings support Islamic mindfulness as a promising integrative approach, while future research should use standardized protocols, stronger designs, larger samples, direct measures of psychological well-being, and longer follow-up periods.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop an effective communication pocketbook based on the Chain Message Game as a supporting medium for group guidance services and to determine its feasibility and practicality. The study employed the Research and Development method using the Four-D development model through the define, design, and develop stages. The needs analysis indicated a need level of 90.26%. Media expert validation obtained 91.9%, while material expert validation obtained 90.9%, both categorized as highly feasible. The guidance and counseling teacher response reached 92.6%, while the student response reached 93.4%, indicating a very high level of practicality. The novelty of the product lies in integrating effective communication materials, the Chain Message Game, and reflective activities into a concise and interactive medium. The results indicate that the product is feasible and practical as a supporting medium for group guidance services. However, its effectiveness in improving students’ communication skills has not yet been tested; therefore, future research should conduct experimental testing.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze community experiences in participating in drug prevention education programs, their effectiveness in improving public knowledge and awareness of drug abuse, as well as the challenges and solutions for enhancing program effectiveness. This study employed a qualitative case study design. Data were collected through observations and interviews with community members and supporting informants and analyzed descriptively. The findings indicate that the program provided positive experiences by improving participants’ understanding of the types, impacts, and prevention of drug abuse. The program was considered reasonably effective in increasing knowledge and awareness, particularly regarding the role of families and communities in prevention. Its effectiveness was supported by accessible language, relevant materials, and interactive communication. However, uneven participation, time constraints, and differences in participants’ levels of understanding remained challenges. Therefore, improving program effectiveness requires continuous implementation, flexible scheduling, interactive methods and media, and stronger collaboration among village governments, counselors, families, community leaders, and residents. Drug education thus serves not only as information dissemination but also as a process of community empowerment and collective responsibility in preventing drug abuse.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effect of mindset, encompassing growth mindset and fixed mindset, on academic grit among working Guidance and Counseling students in Medan. This study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 167 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through an online questionnaire using the Mindset Scale and the Academic Grit Scale and were analyzed using simple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics version 19. The results indicated that the instruments met the validity and reliability criteria. Regression analysis revealed that mindset had a positive and significant effect on academic grit (R = 0.895, R² = 0.801, F = 664.481, p < .05). Mindset accounted for 80.1% of the variance in academic grit, while the remaining 19.9% was attributable to other factors. These findings highlight the importance of fostering an adaptive mindset to strengthen students' persistence and consistency in balancing academic and work responsibilities.
