Abstract

Year to year, the suicide rate among academics in Nusa Tenggara Barat Province has risen because of various factors. Suicidal behavior results from suicidal ideation, which is triggered by negative emotions that cause psychological stress, such as depression. On the other hand, numerous previous studies found a contribution of happiness and depression to suicidal ideation. Hence, this study examined the significance of the role of happiness in moderating the effect of depression on suicidal ideation. Further, this was a survey study on academics in Nusa Tenggara Barat Province (n = 182). Moderator analysis was applied in this study using the PROCESS Macro version 3.0 installed in the IBM SPSS 23.00. The study’s findings have shown that happiness significantly moderates the effect of depression on suicidal ideation. The happier the person is, the lesser the depression impacts suicidal ideation. Moreover, these findings suggest that clinical psychologists working with academic clients should pay attention to increasing happiness as a resource for psychological interventions to reduce the severity of depression’s effect on suicidal ideation.

Abstract

Responsive parenting contributes to the friendship quality formed in adolescents. Previous studies failed to fully explain the relationship process between responsive parenting and friendship quality. Empathy is one of the interpersonal skills formed through responsive parenting. Therefore, this study aims to examine the role of empathy in responsive parenting relations with friendship quality. A total of 450 respondents, including the early, middle, and late adolescents aged 12-15, 15-18, and 18-20 years, were selected as participants. Responsive parenting, empathy style, and friendship quality was measured using the Parental Responsiveness Scale, Interpersonal Reactivity Index, and the McGill Friendship Questionnaires-Friend's Functions. The research data were analyzed using regression analysis and Sobel test. The results showed that empathy is a mediator in the relationship between responsive parenting and friendship quality. Also, responsive parenting does not directly predict friendship quality but first develops fantasy and personal stress styles. Adolescents with high personal distress show sensitivity to the feelings and thoughts of their friends because the relationships formed are of higher quality.

Abstract

Student well-being has become a significant goal and outcome of quality education. The “PROSPER (Positivity, Relationships, Outcomes, Strengths, Purpose, Engagement, Resilience) student well-being” is a framework that provides a holistic approach to improve student’s well-being. This study aimed to explore the construct of student well-being in the West Java high school population, based on the PROSPER framework. We focused on exploring high school students in urban areas. A qualitative study was conducted in three different language zones in West Java by using observations and interviews. The data were collected by six enumerators with a total of 108 students using a sequential approach thematic analysis. The study found that student well-being and its components were consistent with the framework. However, we proposed the subcomponents of student well-being and its definitions that reflect the unique characteristics of the population. The study also found that personal factors, social factors, and physical urban environments may influence well-being from students' perspectives. This study suggests that the PROSPER framework can be used to describe student well-being and also guides the government to develop educational policies and intervention programs at school.

Abstract

Online dating applications are frequently used by young adults across the globe. Research from several countries has found a strong link between the use of dating apps and risky sexual behavior. Risky sexual behaviors refer to sexual behaviors that may lead to sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and/or unwanted pregnancies. This study aims to examine the use of smartphone dating applications by young adults in big cities in Indonesia to explore if users engage in risky sexual behavior with fellow users. To investigate this question, this study employed mixed methods including a survey and focused interviews. The survey succeeded in collecting data from 633 dating application users and the focused interviews were conducted with 6 participants. Interview participants were young adults who used dating apps and have had sexual relations with partners found through these apps. Research findings show results that are relatively similar to previous research. The results highlighted that dating app was used to find friends or partners and as a means of channeling sexual desire. On one hand, participants were aware of the consequences of the practice of unprotected sex with multiple partners. On the other hand, they expressed a preference for engaging in risky sexual behaviors rather than refraining from them, with various justified and rationalized reasons that they were quite safe. Moreover, this study also noted the instance of men committing sexual violations against women who were made vulnerable and become “trapped” as victims of a sexual offense.
