Abstract

Students who have introverted personalities often experience difficulties when faced with situations that require them to carry out social interactions. This has an impact on their role in several lecture activities, especially in group assignments that require collaboration in the process. Based on research results, the negative impact of introverts is excessive worry, pessimism, lack of confidence, fear of opinions, and not daring to appear in public. This self-closing character makes it difficult for lecturers to develop their academic potential and achievements. One effort that can be made to reduce the negative impact of introverted students is Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) counseling. This research is quasi-experimental, using non-equivalent pretest-posttest control group design. This research was conducted at PGRI Banyuwangi University, with the research subjects being students who fall into the introvert category. The sampling technique is called purposive sampling. The instruments used in this study include observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The instruments used in this study include observation, interviews, and questionnaires. Based on the results of data processing using SPSS, the results of group counseling treatment with the REBT (rational emotive behavior therapy) approach for subjects indicated to be introverts in this study stated that t-count = 20,294 with a significance level of 0.05, so t-table = 2,201. Based on these findings, it is possible to conclude that the t count > the t table, or that 20,294 > 2,201. Thus, it can be concluded that group counseling with the REBT approach can reduce the negative impact of introverts on counseling students at PGRI Banyuwangi University. This results shows that group counseling with the REBT approach is able to reduce the negative impact of introverts on students.

This research uses a quasi-experimental quantitative approach with Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The subjects in this study consisted of 6 PGSD students who had moderate-severe levels of academic stress. Then the subjects were divided into 2 groups, namely 3 subjects in the experimental group and 3 subjects in the control group. The measuring instrument used in this study is the Student Life Stress Inventory (SLSI) scale developed by Gadzella (1991).

Abstract

Counseling reality therapy, counseling and resilience are forms of providing assistance that is individual or group in the counseling process. Generally, reality counseling and WDEP are used to change behavior now. The reality of this therapy is focused on confronting the counselor by facing reality and helping to get the needs without harming oneself and others. Meanwhile, WDEP is more focused on meeting the needs of counselors so as not to deny the existing reality. How are these two counselings interconnected and create the strength to overcome adolescent resilience with premarital promiscuous sex dependence?This article reviews with an epistemological point of view from a literature review of WDEP counseling and the reality of therapy from early 2013 to late 2022 to find out its use in overcoming adolescent resilience with premarital free sex dependence. To achieve this goal, three steps followed: (1) prepare a search strategy for systematic literature review and gather representative paper research into the use of WDEP counseling and therapeutic reality using the Google Scholar and Scient Direct digital literature search engines; (2) store search results into a mandeley database to synthesize literature reviews; (3) organize literature review and extract data into qualitative and quantitative information on WDEP counseling and Reality therapy on the resilience of adolescents with premarital free sex dependence. The authors propose a taxonomy of literature through interpretive analysis: (1) time analysis to determine the causes of trends in the use of WDEP counseling and the reality of therapy in the last ten years; (2) terminology analysis to examine the development of the application of WDEP counseling and the reality of trerapi; (3) analysis of the use of WDEP counseling and the reality of the counselor on the nature and characteristics of counseling; (4) analysis of WDEP counseling and the reality of trerapi on counselor's perceptions; (5) analysis of the use of WDEP counseling and the reality of trerapi in relation to socio-cultural, family, or personal rules; (6) analysis of WDEP counseling and trerapi reality of self-concept, self-esteem and resilience of adolescents with premarital free sex dependence.

Abstract

University students who are beginning to enter the early developmental stage as adults are in the process of being able to respond wisely to negative emotions that interfere with their practical lives. This study aims to identify the tendency of university students to engage in self-harming behaviour. The approach used in this research is quantitative-descriptive. The population of this research is Syiah Kuala University students, and the sampling technique is a cluster. The sample selection considers the faculty with the lowest Institutional Development Contribution (SPI) level at Syiah Kuala University. So, the number of research samples is 348 students. The research data was collected using a scale prepared by considering the items on the NSSI Ideation Questionary (NIQ) Items Within During Ideation Factor (Wilson, 2008) to determine the condition of self-harm tendencies. Based on the results of data analysis, it is known that there are 7% of respondents who do not have self-harm tendencies. While 74% of respondents have low levels of self-harm tendencies, and 14% of respondents are at moderate levels. However, it is of concern that there are 6% of respondents who have high and very high levels of self-harm tendencies. To prevent the tendency from increasing and possibly becoming self-harming behaviour, it is necessary to create a basic service program as a prevention effort at the university level

Abstract

Interpersonal relationships are a crucial aspect of adolescents' social and emotional development, directly impacting their personal well-being and academic achievement. This study aims to analyze the interpersonal relationship profile of students in Vocational High School. Data were collected from 37 students in Vocational High School and analyzed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA to evaluate the quality of their interpersonal relationships and participation in social activities. Descriptive analysis results indicate that the average quality of students' interpersonal relationships falls in the medium category, with a mean score of 161.378 and a standard deviation of 14.326. Student participation in interpersonal activities is also in the medium category, with a mean score of 42.784 and a standard deviation of 4.510. When both aspects are combined, the overall score for interpersonal relationships is 204.162, with a standard deviation of 17.420. ANOVA analysis shows no significant differences in the quality of interpersonal relationships based on personality types (introvert, extrovert, and ambivert), with a p-value of 0.351. This suggests that personality type does not significantly influence the quality of interpersonal relationships among students at Vocational High School.

Abstract

University students' mental health and academic performance are significantly impacted by academic stress. This study looked at the academic stress levels, counseling experiences, emotional support networks, and help-seeking attitudes among 102 Indonesian undergraduate students between the ages of 19 and 24. The majority of students (71.6%) chose to ask friends for help, followed by parents (29.4%) and self-help (21.6%), according to the findings. Approximately half (52%) had sought counseling services, mostly in high school or college. Although some students expressed displeasure, the majority of counseling experiences were viewed as beneficial (60.4%). Only 4.9% of students reported high levels of academic stress, compared to the majority (81.4%) who reported moderate levels. Students who attended counseling did not significantly differ from those who did not in terms of their academic stress. This can happen due to limited respondents. While older students were more likely to seek therapy, stress levels and age did not significantly correlate. The results underline the value of peer support and draw attention to obstacles like stigma and accessibility that prevent people from formally seeking help. To further promote student well-being and academic success in Indonesian higher education, the study suggests expanding peer support programs, raising mental health awareness, and improving culturally relevant counseling services.
