Javanese, with their unique values, behaviors, and habits, represent the largest population among the many ethnicities in Indonesia. They adhere to specific values to maintain happiness in their lives, namely narima (acceptance) and rila (compliance). These values have psychological significance as they encompass resilience and the ability to regulate emotions. Furthermore, from a psychological perspective, resilience and emotion regulation play crucial roles in shaping the happiness of the Javanese population. Therefore, this study explores the relationship between emotion regulation, resilience, and happiness among the Javanese population. 250 Javanese from East Java and the Special Region of Yogyakarta were involved. This study utilized the interdependent happiness, resilience, and emotion regulation scales. The findings showed a significant relationship between resilience, emotion regulation, and happiness among Javanese. Both independent variables accounted for 51.8% of the happiness experienced by the participants. Therefore, these findings shed light on the psychological processes and mechanisms underlying happiness among Javanese.

Corruption is a critical issue for Bangladesh, including corruption in higher education. The present study explored the perception of corruption based on gender, religion, and socioeconomic status with factorial survey research design. One hundred twenty participants were selected by purposive sampling technique from male and female university students aged 20-26 years. All the participants were studying in public and private universities. Personal Information Form (PIF) and Perception of Corruption Scale (PCS) were used for this study. The PCS measured the respondents’ level of perception about corruption consisting of 18 items. One-way analysis of variance and t-test were applied to analyze the data. The result indicates no significant difference in perception of corruption based on gender. In contrast, there is a significant difference in the perception of corruption based on religion, with the Hindus having the lowest perception of corruption. Moreover, there is a significant difference in perception of corruption based on socioeconomic status. Therefore, university students’ perceptions of different corrupt practices need to be addressed.

Perceived fairness has been consistently found to have a significant positive correlation with marital satisfaction. Furthermore, numerous studies on perceived fairness have been conducted related to parents of children with disabilities, considering the difficulties encountered by these parents due to their children’s specialized needs and demands. As a result, these challenges usually affect their marital relationship more than the other couples. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between perceived fairness and marital satisfaction moderated by the presence of children with disabilities. The Indonesian version of the Perceived Fairness instrument and Quality of Marriage Index were used to measure perceived fairness and marital satisfaction in 335 married Indonesian participants, including both parents of children with and without disabilities. Data analysis was performed using Hayes PROCESS. The result showed that perceived fairness was significantly correlated to marital satisfaction in both parents of children with and without disabilities. However, no significant interaction was found by the presence of children with disabilities on the relationship between perceived fairness and marital satisfaction. The results of this study provide a strong implication for mental health practitioners regarding the intervention goals for families and parents of children with disabilities.

An imbalance between nurturing expectations and available resources during the COVID-19 pandemic increases the risk of parental stress. This study aimed to reduce parental stress through spiritual mindfulness training among Indonesian Muslim mothers. This study applied the embedded experimental model, one part of the mixed method design, where qualitative data is used to clarify the results of the experimental data. The experimental design used was the pretest-posttest control group design. Twenty individuals were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The Parental Stress Scale was used to assess parental stress. The Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare parental stress levels before and after spiritual mindfulness training. The hypothesis test results show that spiritual mindfulness training effectively reduces parenting stress for Indonesian Muslim mothers. Observation data during the training process and analysis of the assignment sheet found that the two individuals actively participating in the training process and frequently filling out the assignment sheets reduced parental stress levels more than their more passive counterparts. Spiritual mindfulness training successfully decreases the parental stress of Muslim mothers, and it is strongly suggested that mothers practice training regularly to considerably control their stress.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a crisis in students' career development. Online learning activities could not have been optimal during the pandemic due to the poor quality of the internet network. Meanwhile, more than 1.2 million individuals had their employment terminated, resulting in their job loss. The pandemic contributes to students' career anxiety and mismatches in determining future careers. Our study explored the dynamics of student career anxiety that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic through a phenomenological approach. Data was collected using semi-structured interviews by teleconference. The interviews focused on 1) how the participants experience career anxiety and 2) how it affects their career planning. Fifteen students participated through purposive sampling with criteria: 19-25 years old and undergraduate students. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) is applied as an analysis framework. We synthesized phenomenological themes identified as students' career anxiety: doubts about career plans, limited job opportunities due to the pandemic, and social comparison. The analysis also found that engaging in career-relevant communities was relevant to career readiness and deepening knowledge of career paths. This study encourages improving student skills by adjusting educational materials, training, or internships relevant to the student's potential and career needs during this critical time.

The COVID-19 pandemic and its mitigation efforts are associated with increased student mental health problems such as anxiety, stress, isolation, and lack of motivation. When left untreated, these conditions could affect students' well-being, academic achievement, social relations, and quality of life. This study aimed to explore university students' barriers to managing mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic using an explorative qualitative approach. A total of 310 students from various regions in Indonesia were recruited by purposive sampling. Data was collected by distributing qualitative questionnaires through a Google form containing informed consent, demographic data, and open-ended questions. Thematic analysis was applied to identify the patterns of the meaning of students' barriers. The barriers experienced by students in managing mental health during the pandemic are a lack of support from their closest people, restricted mobility, stigmatization, and individual characteristics. The results show support from family and closest friends is essential for managing students' mental health, especially when there is limited access to mobility and social interaction. Additionally, adaptability and disclosure are also seen to be crucial for students in managing their mental health. This study suggests a campaign for mental health literacy and providing accessible mental health services for students in crisis.

Psychological well-being is an important component for adolescents. This research examined the influence of gratitude training to enhance the psychological well-being of adolescents with single parents at a Junior High School. This research applied a true experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. The subjects were taken randomly and consisted of 24 adolescents with single parents. The subjects were then grouped into experimental and control groups, each consisting of 12 individuals. The experimental group received the gratitude training, consisting of 6 sessions. The psychological well-being scale for Indonesian adolescents aged between 12 and 15 was used to collect the data. ANOVA mixed design with SPSS 25 for Windows was applied to analyze the data. The result shows a significant interaction between the group and test, indicating the changes between the experiment and control groups significantly differ from pretest to posttest. Based on post hoc analysis, there is a significant mean difference in psychological well-being in the experimental group, with the mean of the pretest being lower than in the posttest. Therefore, gratitude training enhances the psychological well-being of adolescents with single parents. Adolescents need to apply gratitude to their daily activities to enhance their psychological well-being.

Forming quality interfaith friendships is not impossible. Additionally, our society has become accustomed to differences. However, a clear explanation for the difficulty of forming such friendships has yet to be established. This study aimed to investigate the influence of tolerance and stigma consciousness on the quality of interfaith friendships. The research involved 400 respondents aged 18-25, comprising 200 Muslim respondents with at least one non-Muslim friend and 200 non-Muslim respondents with at least one Muslim friend. The quality of friendship was evaluated using the McGill Friendship Questionnaire (MFQ), while tolerance and stigma consciousness were measured using the Tolerance Index Questionnaire (TI) and Stigma Consciousness Questionnaire (SCQ), respectively. Multiple regression analysis was utilized to test the research hypothesis. The study results indicate that tolerance and stigma consciousness are significant factors in determining the quality of interfaith friendships. Individuals with tolerance and low levels of stigma consciousness are more likely to form quality interfaith friendships.
