Abstract

This study examined the relationship between self-efficacy, resilience, meaning in life, and anxiety during crisis situations like the COVID-19 pandemic. Self-efficacy is considered an important psychological resource that supports individuals in coping with stressful and uncertain situations. Using a quantitative correlational design, data were collected from participants through standardized psychological scales measuring self-efficacy, resilience, meaning in life, and anxiety. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to test the relationships among variables. The results indicated that self-efficacy was positively and significantly correlated with resilience and meaning in life, suggesting that individuals with higher confidence in their abilities tend to show stronger adaptive capacity and a greater sense of life meaning. In contrast, the relationship between self-efficacy and anxiety was negative but not statistically significant. Aspect-level analysis showed that the magnitude, strength, and generality dimensions of self-efficacy were consistently related positively to resilience and meaning in life. These findings highlight the protective role of self-efficacy in psychological functioning during crisis situations. The study contributes to the development of psychological intervention strategies by emphasizing the importance of strengthening self-efficacy and resilience to support mental health outcomes. Future research is recommended to apply longitudinal designs and include mediating variables to better explain these relationships

Abstract

This research confirms that although individuals with intellectual disabilities face significant challenges, they still have developmental potential that can be enhanced through appropriate support and intervention. This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions on a child with intellectual disabilities who is following a therapy program at the Insan Cemerlang Duri Foundation. The writer used an experiment with a single-subject design (Single Case Experimental Design), which allows for in-depth observation of changes in the subject's behavior before and after treatment. The subject of the study was "DZ", a 15year old boy with limitations in intellectual and communication abilities. Result Showed that DZ was still very dependent on parental assistance in daily activities, but began to show an understanding of simple instructions that were often repeated. The interventions provided focused on basic skills training and improving functional communication. The implications of this research are the importance of an inclusive environment, family involvement, and the use of individual experimental designs in developing interventions that are responsive to the unique needs of children

Abstract

Traumatic experiences can shape individual socio-emotional development and influence the emergence of prosocial behavior. This article aims to investigate how trauma relates to prosocial behavior and examine the role of resilience in modulating this relationship. Using a systematic literature review, empirical articles published between 2014 and 2024 were identified from international scientific databases with inclusion criteria focusing on trauma, resilience, and prosocial outcomes. Twenty-seven eligible studies were synthesized using narrative analysis based on thematic categorization. Overall results show that trauma tends to have a negative effect on prosocial behavior, particularly among individuals exposed to violence or disaster, while resilience consistently appears as a mechanism that weakens or transforms this effect into adaptive social responses. Several reviewed studies also indicate the possibility of prosocial development following adversity when resilience and social support are present. This review contributes conceptually by emphasizing resilience as a key psychological process underlying variations in post�traumatic prosocial outcomes and provides implications for intervention and prevention strategies aimed at strengthening adaptive resources in individuals who experience adversity.Keywords: prosocial behavior, traumatic, resilience

Abstract

Conformity pressure in peer groups is one of the factors that most influence the emergence of smoking behavior in adolescent boys. The classic findings of Solomon Asch's experiments provide the basis that individuals can adjust their opinions and actions when under the pressure of majority norms. In line with this, various public health studies and social network research have highlighted the mechanisms of influence and selection as the main explanation for why smoking behavior can spread in adolescent groups. This literature review examines in detail 10 major empirical studies related to the relationship between conformity and smoking behavior in adolescents, along with additional analysis from 25 other scientific sources. The results of the study showed that normative group pressure, social status in the school network, closeness to close friends, and social relationship patterns affect adolescents' chances of starting smoking. Its interaction with other environmental factors suggests that conformity does not work alone, but is interrelated to the process of social selection and group dynamics. These findings hint at the importance of social network-based interventions and strengthening anti-smoking norms as prevention strategies.
