<![CDATA[COVID-19, or severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS_CoV- 2), is a virus that attacks the respiratory system. COVID-19 significantly impacts society's survival, one of which is the world of education, so education must be replaced with online learning methods. Many parents feel overwhelmed because they must do many jobs, so stress arises for parents. Ways to solve problems require coping strategies. This study aimed to determine the description of stress coping of mothers who accompany elementary school children to study from home during the COVID-19 pandemic at SD Kristen Citra Bangsa Mandiri. This type of research is quantitative descriptive research. The population in this study were 571 parents of grades 2-6. The sampling technique was purposive, with a total sample size of 232 mothers. The results showed that while accompanying children learning online from home, the stress coping used by mothers was emotion-focused coping, and the dominant aspect used by mothers was the positive reappraisal aspect. It is hoped that mothers who have children who study with online learning can divide their time well between home or office work and accompanying children to study online. The school can also make webinars or workshops for parents related to parenting and can also talk about child mentoring.]]>

<![CDATA[In the July 2021 period, Covid-19 cases in Indonesia jumped sharply. The Indonesian government responded to the spike in cases by implementing a physical distancing policy called PPKM (Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat). One of the public's responses to the policy is reluctance or disobedience to existing policies because they experience psychological reactance. This research was conducted with the aim of understanding the dynamics of community psychological reactance related to the physical distancing policy in Indonesia. The study used a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach and analyzed using Miles and Huberman's thematic analysis. Sampling was done by using homogeneous variance purposive sampling technique. Collecting data used in this study is to conduct interviews. Research informants totaled 3 people. This study resulted that the three informants felt that their activities were limited during the implementation of the Physical distancing policy. The existence of the physical distancing policy also caused the three informants to feel threatened, both directly and indirectly in economic and academic terms, and their freedoms were disturbed. The form of reactance experienced by each informant was disappointment with the government. The responses of the three informants in an effort to restore their freedom include; not obeying the PPKM rules and breaking them by staying together with the crowd.]]>

<![CDATA[Social anxiety is a global phenomenon that can be experienced by various groups, one of which is students with extroverted and introverted personality types. The purpose of this research is to determine the difference in the level of social anxiety between extroverted and introverted personality types among students during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study is a comparative quantitative study that uses proportionate stratified random sampling with a sample size of 139. The measurement tools used are the Eysenck Personality Inventory to measure personality types and the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale to measure social anxiety. Hypothesis testing shows that there is a significant difference in the level of social anxiety between extroverted and introverted personality types. Introverted personality types have a higher level of social anxiety compared to extroverted personality types. This significant difference is due to the differing characteristics of extroverted and introverted personality types in facing social situations, resulting in different tendencies towards social anxiety, whereas introverts tend to have higher social anxiety tendencies.]]>
