Abstract

Much research has shown that online gambling behavior has detrimental effects on various aspects, including on undergraduate students.  However, studies on smartphone behavior and online gambling among students are still under research.  This study aims to determine the relationship between nomophobia and online gambling behavior among university students. A total sample of 118 undergraduate students who were using smartphones and actively playing online gambling participated in this study. We used the Nomophobia Questionnaire scale and the Online Gambling Symptom Assessment Scale to obtain nomophobia and online gambling behavior data. Correlation analysis showed a significant and positive correlation between nomophobia and online gambling behavior, with a coefficient r being 0.439 and a p-value being 0.000 (p<0.05). The results show that there is a positive relationship between nomophobia and online gambling behavior in college students. Gender analysis showed that there were no significant differences between male and female students in online gambling behavior, whereas in nomophobia, female students had higher levels than male students. These findings highlight the urgency of strengthening digital literacy to prevent online gambling behavior among undergraduate students.

Abstract

Many students face various complex academic challenges, ranging from heavy workloads, pressure to achieve, to intense academic competition. These conditions can trigger emotional stress that affects academic resilience. This study aims to examine students' academic resilience in terms of emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and gender.   This quantitative study used purposive sampling and involved 217 students. Data collection was conducted using two scales: one to measure emotional intelligence and another to measure students' self-efficacy, which were administered through questionnaires, along with demographic data on students' gender.  Hypothesis testing showed a significant influence between emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and gender with an F value of 0.000 at p < 0.05. Emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and gender contributed 48.6% of the variability in academic resilience (R² = 0.486), indicating a significant impact. These findings indicate that by enhancing emotional intelligence and self-efficacy, students' academic resilience can be improved, enabling them to better cope with academic pressure and challenges. Additionally, understanding gender differences in resilience enables the development of more targeted counseling programs and psychological interventions to help students manage stress, maintain learning motivation, and improve their academic well-being.

Abstract

Iraw Tengkayu is a cultural tradition preserved by the people of Tarakan City, North Kalimantan, that engages various ethnic groups in a shared ceremonial event. This tradition not only symbolizes cultural continuity but also serves as a psychosocial platform to foster interethnic solidarity and cultural resilience in a multicultural society. This study aims to examine the psychosocial processes embedded in the Iraw Tengkayu celebration, focusing on social connectedness, collective identity formation, intrinsic motivation, environmental consciousness, and the symbolic meanings constructed within the community. Employing a qualitative realist approach, data were collected through semi-structure interviews with four key informant organizers and local participants. Thematic analysis was employed to identify recurring patterns, with triangulation used to enhance the validity of the findings. The findings demonstrate that Iraw Tengkayu strengthens social cohesion through interethnic rituals, reinforces inclusive cultural identity, and promotes civic participation. The celebration also nurtures ecological awareness and sustains a collective memory rooted in gratitude and togetherness. Theoretically, this study contributes to understanding how cultural rituals function as psychosocial mechanisms for identity integration and solidarity in diverse settings. Practically, it emphasizes the importance of integrating cultural heritage into public policy to foster inclusive citizenship, social harmony, and environmental responsibility in multicultural contexts.

Abstract

The rapid adoption of flexible work arrangements (FWA) in Indonesia, driven by digital transformation and shifting workforce expectations, raises critical questions about their impact on employee creativity—a relationship that remains underexplored in the local context. While global studies suggest FWA can foster innovation through greater autonomy and work-life balance, conflicting evidence and unique cultural values in Indonesia warrant further investigation. This study addresses a significant research gap by examining whether job satisfaction mediates the effect of FWA on employee creativity among Indonesian workers. Employing a cross-sectional survey of 233 permanent employees with validated measurement scales, we conducted mediation analysis using Jamovi. The results demonstrate that FWA positively influences both job satisfaction and creativity, with job satisfaction partially mediating this relationship. Notably, FWA exerts both direct and indirect effects on creativity, emphasizing the dual role of structural flexibility and psychological fulfillment. These findings enrich Job Adjustment Theory and the Job Demands-Resources framework in a non-Western setting, offering fresh insights into the mechanisms behind workplace innovation. Practically, organizations should not only implement flexible policies but also actively support job satisfaction to maximize creative outcomes. Future research is encouraged to explore additional mediators, moderators, and qualitative perspectives to further illuminate this evolving landscape. Abstrak. Adopsi pengaturan kerja fleksibel (Flexible Work Arrangements/FWA) yang semakin pesat di Indonesia, didorong oleh transformasi digital dan perubahan ekspektasi tenaga kerja, menimbulkan pertanyaan penting terkait dampaknya terhadap kreativitas karyawan—hubungan yang masih jarang dikaji dalam konteks lokal. Meskipun studi global menunjukkan bahwa FWA dapat mendorong inovasi melalui peningkatan otonomi dan keseimbangan kerja-kehidupan, temuan yang saling bertentangan serta nilai-nilai budaya yang unik di Indonesia memerlukan penelitian lebih lanjut. Studi ini mengisi kesenjangan penelitian dengan menguji apakah kepuasan kerja memediasi pengaruh FWA terhadap kreativitas karyawan di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan survei cross-sectional pada 233 karyawan tetap dan skala pengukuran terstandar, analisis mediasi dilakukan menggunakan Jamovi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa FWA berpengaruh positif terhadap kepuasan kerja dan kreativitas, dengan kepuasan kerja memediasi hubungan tersebut secara parsial. Menariknya, FWA memberikan efek langsung dan tidak langsung terhadap kreativitas, yang menegaskan peran ganda fleksibilitas struktural dan pemenuhan psikologis. Temuan ini memperkaya teori Job Adjustment dan kerangka Job Demands-Resources di konteks non-Barat, serta menawarkan wawasan baru tentang mekanisme inovasi di tempat kerja. Secara praktis, organisasi tidak hanya perlu menerapkan kebijakan fleksibel, tetapi juga secara aktif mendukung kepuasan kerja untuk memaksimalkan hasil kreativitas. Penelitian selanjutnya disarankan mengeksplorasi mediator, moderator, dan pendekatan kualitatif tambahan untuk memperdalam pemahaman mengenai lanskap ini yang terus berkembang.

Abstract

Social media has profoundly reshaped the way youth interact, communicate, and build relationships in the digital age. As platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and WhatsApp become central to daily life, understanding their psychosocial impacts on young people is critical. This scoping review aims to map and synthesize existing research on how social media influences youth social interaction patterns. A total of 82 studies published between 2020 and 2025 were analyzed, covering diverse cultural and geographical contexts. Thematic analysis identified four key areas: (1) social media as a catalyst for friendship formation, (2) evolving communication styles shaped by visual and ephemeral content, (3) the rise of digital intimacy and emotional support networks, and (4) the amplification of peer conflict, social comparison, and algorithmic pressures. The findings reveal both opportunities (e.g., global connections and creative self-expression) and risks (e.g., performative self-presentation, cyberbullying, and FOMO). Practical recommendations include implementing digital literacy programs in education, fostering authentic connections through platform design, and developing policies for algorithmic transparency and youth online safety. This review highlights the need for intersectional and globally aware frameworks and calls for longitudinal research to inform interventions that promote youth well-being in digital spaces.

Abstract

The banking sector is characterized by high work pressure, long working hours, and demanding performance targets, making it one of the most vulnerable industries to occupational stress and work–life imbalance. While organizational factors such as workload, supervisor support, and company policies are recognized as critical determinants of work–life balance (WLB), studies focusing on dispositional factors, particularly personality traits, remain limited. Neuroticism, as one of the Big Five personality dimensions, is strongly associated with emotional instability, anxiety, and rumination, which may hinder employees’ ability to manage competing role demands effectively. This study aims to examine the relationship between neuroticism and WLB among banking employees in Indonesia, where cultural values and organizational contexts may shape employees’ experiences differently than in Western settings. Using a quantitative correlational design, data were collected from 234 banking employees through purposive sampling. Neuroticism was measured using the Big Five Inventory, while WLB was assessed with the Work–Life Balance Scale. Pearson’s correlation analysis revealed a significant negative relationship between neuroticism and WLB (r = –.210, p < .001, 95% CI [–.320, –.090]), with a small-to-moderate effect size. These findings are consistent with global literature linking neuroticism to poor work–family outcomes, while also highlighting contextual factors that may buffer or intensify this relationship. Theoretically, this study contributes by extending the scope of WLB research to include personality-based determinants in a Southeast Asian context. Practically, the results suggest that banking organizations should design interventions such as stress management training, resilience-building programs, and flexible work arrangements to support employees with high neuroticism profiles.   Abstrak: Sektor perbankan dikenal memiliki karakteristik pekerjaan dengan tekanan tinggi, jam kerja yang panjang, serta tuntutan target yang ketat. Kondisi tersebut seringkali menimbulkan risiko stres kerja dan mengurangi kesempatan karyawan untuk menyeimbangkan peran antara pekerjaan dan kehidupan pribadi. Work-life balance tercapai ketika seseorang mampu memenuhi tuntutan dari kedua ranah tersebut secara proporsional. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan neuroticism dengan work-life balance pada karyawan perbankan. Subjek dalam penelitian ini adalah pekerja di sektor perbankan yang berjumlah 234 orang. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan korelasional, pengukuran variabel dilakukan menggunakan skala big-five personality dan skala-work life balance dengan format likert. Data yang diperoleh kemudian dianalisis menggunakan pearson product moment correlation. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa neuroticism berhubungan negatif secara signifikan dengan work-life balance (r = -0.210, p < .001) artinya semakin tinggi neuroticism, semakin rendah work-life balance dan sebaliknya semakin rendah neuroticism maka semakin tinggi work-life balance. Implikasi praktis dari penelitian ini adalah pentingnya organisasi perbankan menyediakan dukungan kerja yang memadai serta mengembangkan kebijakan work–life balance terutama bagi karyawan dengan profil neuroticism lebih tinggi.
