Abstract

The research is based on the problem of negative perceptions of students who consider BK teachers as "school police" and lack of student trust. This study examines the important role of interpersonal communication of Guidance and Counseling teachers in building rapport with generation Z students. The method used is a qualitative survey with a non-probability sampling technique, the study involved 163 high school students in Bandar Lampung through voluntary sampling. Data were collected through online questionnaires and FGDs about the comfort of interacting with BK teachers and analyzed using thematic analysis with ATLAS.ti 9 software. The results of the study identified two themes in communication behavior that build rapport: care (12 codes) and immediacy (10 codes) and It was found that the communication behavior of guidance and counseling teachers that can build rapport with generation Z students can start with the ability to be fair as the most important top priority., followed by the ability to tell stories with humor to lighten the atmosphere, guidance and counseling teachers can begin to change negative perceptions and build a more positive rapport relationship with students, thereby increasing student trust in guidance and counseling teachers so that students will feel safer, more comfortable and confident in consulting with guidance and counseling teachers. These findings can be used as a reference in the development of interpersonal communication training programs in universities for prospective guidance and counseling teachers, as well as practical guidelines for improving the quality of guidance and counseling services in schools. This study provides an in-depth understanding of the communication behaviors expected by Generation Z for guidance and counseling teachers in increasing the effectiveness of guidance and counseling services.

Abstract

Female sex workers (FSWs) often manage a concealable, stigmatized identity, yet some are known within their neighborhoods. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), this study examined how five Indonesian FSWs (35–45 years) living in Central Java made sense of “living openly” and mental health as emotional, psychological, and social well-being. “Living openly” was defined as negotiated openness: at least some community members (e.g., neighbors, informal leaders, and/or family) knew participants’ work status, while operational details were deliberately withheld. Participants were recruited via snowball sampling and completed in-depth interviews in Indonesian; excerpts were translated into English for reporting. Idiographic accounts converged in four cross-case themes: (1) boundary work that eased the burden of secrecy without requiring total disclosure; (2) emotional relief coexisting with vigilance as stigma resurfaced through gossip, moral judgment, harassment, and safety concerns; (3) psychological well-being sustained by time–space separation between work and home, privacy management, selective trust, and meaning anchored in caregiving roles; and (4) social well-being built through routine participation and visible contribution to community activities under conditional acceptance. The findings position openness as a continuing social practice through which well-being is reconstructed amid persistent stigma and structural vulnerability. Implications highlight harm-reduction norms, safe spaces, and family support.

Abstract

Landslides cause multidimensional impacts, not only psychological but also social and spiritual. This study highlights the importance of understanding survivors’ journeys toward self-acceptance, considering the limited research that emphasizes the role of spirituality in trauma recovery within the religious-cultural context of Indonesia. The study proposes to understand and describe the spiritual experiences of landslide survivors as they journey from trauma to self-acceptance. Using a phenomenological approach, data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews with survivors who experienced significant trauma. Thematic analysis was employed to capture psychological, social, and spiritual dynamics in participants lived experiences. The findings reveal that the survivors’ journey is transformative, characterized by phases of emotional turmoil, social disconnection, and eventually the search for new meaning through religious practices and spiritual coping. Spirituality emerged as the primary source of strength in fostering resilience and transforming suffering into post-traumatic growth. This study contributes theoretically by enriching disaster psychology literature with a focus on spirituality and meaning-making, methodologically by applying an in-depth phenomenological approach, and practically by providing a basis for developing locally grounded, spiritually oriented psychosocial interventions to support disaster survivors’ recovery.

Abstract

This article addressed the predictor role of mindfulness and cognitive emotion regulation strategies on wellbeing. I expected that individuals who score higher on mindfulness use, more adaptive emotion regulation strategies, and less non-adaptive emotion regulation strategies would score higher on wellbeing. The present article used a correlational design to investigate the associations between cognitive emotion regulation strategies, wellbeing, and mindfulness in young adult participants. One hundred seventy-five university students were recruited for this study. Correlation analysis showed that mindfulness and wellbeing were significantly and positively correlated. Multiple regression analysis showed that emotion regulation strategies of Self-blame and Planning were significant predictors of wellbeing. University students' wellbeing might be enhanced when they use planning strategies and dampened when they use self-blame to cope with stressful events.

Abstract

Quality of life (QoL) is shaped by a complex interplay of relational and psychological processes, yet the integrated contribution of attachment styles, love attitudes, and spiritual intelligence remains insufficiently understood, particularly in non-Western contexts. The present study examined the predictive role of these constructs in a sample of 201 young adults (18–30 years) in India. Participants completed standardized measures of attachment, love attitudes, spiritual intelligence, and QoL. Data were analysed using hierarchical multiple regression to assess the incremental contribution of each set of predictors. Attachment styles significantly predicted QoL in the initial model, with anxious attachment negatively associated and dependent attachment positively associated with QoL. The inclusion of love attitudes explained additional variance, with eros and pragma emerging as negative predictors and mania as a positive predictor. In the final step, spiritual intelligence contributed significant incremental variance, with personal meaning production and conscious state expansion emerging as positive predictors. However, in the combined model, only selected predictors retained significance, indicating substantial shared variance across constructs. These findings suggest that quality of life is best understood as an outcome of interacting relational and meaning-making systems, where attachment-based regulation and existential resources play a more foundational role than romantic attitudes alone. The results are discussed in light of attachment theory, meaning-making frameworks, and the cultural context of emerging adulthood in India.

Abstract

Aging is becoming increasingly common worldwide, which has a profound impact on the social structure, making it imperative to enhance the life satisfaction of the middle-aged and older adults. While life satisfaction serves as a crucial metric for assessing quality of life in aging societies, empirical evidence suggests improvement lags behind advancements in medical technology and living standards. Thus, identifying the key factors influencing their life satisfaction is crucial. We employed data from 12,525 validated samples from the 2020 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study to examine sleep's impact on life satisfaction through multiple mediation modeling. The findings revealed that insufficient sleep emerged as a widespread phenomenon significantly compromising the life satisfaction of the middle-aged and older adults. Physical health and depressive symptoms mediated 85% of sleep's total effect, with depressive symptoms alone accounting for 65% of the mediation. The disproportionate mediation effect of depressive symptoms highlights mental health's critical role in the well-being assessment of the middle-aged and older adults.

Abstract

Understanding how teaching experience and teacher efficacy relate to classroom performance is essential for strengthening early childhood education. This study examined the relationships among teaching experience, teacher efficacy, and teaching performance of kindergarten teachers in Manicahan District to determine whether professional experience and confidence translate into improved instructional performance. In this study, teaching experience is operationally defined as the teachers’ length of service in years in kindergarten teaching; however, when measured using a Likert-scale instrument, it refers to self-reported teaching practice engagement, which is interpreted as perceived teaching practice rather than actual years of service to avoid misleading conclusions. Teacher efficacy refers to teachers’ beliefs in their capability to perform instructional tasks effectively, while teaching performance refers to their actual performance ratings based on official evaluation records. Guided by the assumption that greater experience enhances efficacy and performance, the study employed a descriptive–correlational research design. Data were collected from 35 kindergarten teachers during the 2024–2025 academic year using a validated survey questionnaire and official performance records. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, Pearson product–moment correlation, and analysis of variance. Results indicated that teachers demonstrated high levels of teaching experience and teacher efficacy and were rated very satisfactory in performance. ** Teaching experience showed a significant positive relationship with teacher efficacy (r = .439, p = .009, 95% CI [, ], moderate effect) but was not significantly related to teaching performance (r = –.096, p = .584, small effect). Teacher efficacy also did not significantly correlate with teaching performance (r = .057, p = .751, small effect). These findings indicate that while experience is associated with higher efficacy, neither experience nor efficacy alone directly translates into improved teaching performance, suggesting the need for further investigation of other influencing factors. The study highlights the importance of strengthening professional development systems, instructional support, and school-based mentoring to enhance early childhood teaching effectiveness.

Abstract

Subjective well-being is a crucial indicator of positive psychological functioning among university students. However, loneliness remains a prevalent psychosocial issue in this population and is consistently associated with lower levels of subjective well-being. While previous studies have established a strong negative association between loneliness and subjective well-being, the psychological mechanisms underlying this relationship require further examination. This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of psychological immunity in the association between loneliness and subjective well-being among university students. Data were collected from 347 undergraduate students aged 18–25 years using standardized self-report measures assessing loneliness, psychological immunity, and subjective well-being. Mediation analysis revealed that loneliness was negatively associated with psychological immunity, while psychological immunity was positively associated with subjective well-being. Furthermore, psychological immunity partially mediated the relationship between loneliness and subjective well-being (indirect effect = −0.246, 95% CI [−0.395, −0.098]). These findings suggest that psychological immunity may represent an important internal psychological process linking loneliness and subjective well-being. The results highlight the potential value of strengthening psychological immunity as a target for interventions aimed at enhancing subjective well-being among university students experiencing loneliness.

Abstract

This study examined the use of person-first and identity-first language in published Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) medical research articles. Person-first language emphasizes the individual before their condition (e.g., “person with diabetes”), whereas identity-first language foregrounds the condition (e.g., “diabetic”). Because language has been discussed as a potential contributor to stigma in some chronic illness and disability contexts, documenting language patterns in the scientific literature may provide insight into how individuals are represented. The current study analyzed how individuals with ME/CFS were described in a sample of 85 medical research articles. Across these articles, references to individuals with ME/CFS appeared 3,211 times. Identity-first language was the most frequently used form of terminology (61.9%), followed by person-first language (22.9%) and other descriptors (15.2%). Most articles (72.9%) used both identity-first and person-first language. These findings highlight prevailing linguistic patterns in the ME/CFS research literature and underscore the importance of continued examination of language use in scientific communication.
