Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the use of sarcasm on communication misunderstandings in college students. Sarcasm is a form of communication that contains satire or irony, and often causes ambiguity of meaning, so it has the potential to cause misunderstanding in the communication process. This research uses a quantitative approach with an ex-post facto method. The research subjects were students of the Buddhist Communication Science Study Program of STIAB Jinarakkhita Lampung TA. 2024-2025 as many as 49 respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires, then analyzed using normality test, homogeneity test, and simple linear regression analysis with the help of SPSS 16.0. The results showed that sarcasm had a significant effect on communication misunderstanding, with a coefficient of determination (R Square) of 0.487 or 48.7%. This means that 48.7% of students' communication misunderstanding is influenced by the use of sarcasm. This finding shows that the higher the intensity of sarcasm use, the greater the potential for communication misunderstanding. Therefore, it is important for students to pay more attention to the way they communicate so that the messages conveyed do not cause the wrong interpretation.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of correct speech (Sammā Vācā) a key principle in Buddhist ethics on the communication behavior of Buddhist students in Lampung. Using a quantitative approach with a survey method, data were collected from 98 Buddhist students who actively use social media. A structured questionnaire based on a Likert scale was used and analyzed through relevant statistical tests, including validity, reliability, and simple linear regression. The findings show that correct speech significantly influences communication ethics, with a determination coefficient of 0.532, indicating that 53.2% of students’ communication ethics are affected by their understanding of Sammā Vācā. These results highlight the importance of integrating Buddhist moral teachings into digital literacy education to foster respectful and ethical online communication aligned with Dhamma values.

Abstract

Writing skills are a fundamental component of academic and professional success, enabling effective communication, critical thinking, and knowledge construction. Despite their significance, many students, particularly those learning English as a second or foreign language, face challenges in developing proficient writing abilities. These difficulties are often compounded by individual differences, including personality traits such as introversion and extroversion. While previous studies have explored various pedagogical approaches to enhance writing skills, limited research has focused on how these methods interact with students’ personality types, especially within the context of higher education. This study aims to investigate how a deep learning approach, a pedagogy emphasizing meaningful, mindful, and joyful learning supports and enhances the writing performance of extroverted students compared to introverted ones. The research was conducted with 23 second-semester students from the Buddhist Communication Science Department at Jinarakkhita Buddhist College in Lampung, Indonesia. A mixed-method design was employed, combining pre- and post-writing tests scored using Heaton’s rubric with interviews and personality assessments based on the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. The findings revealed that the most participants were extroverts, and they demonstrated a significant improvement in overall writing ability after the intervention, particularly in organization and content development. Paired samples t-tests confirmed statistically significant differences between pre-test and post-test scores, indicating the effectiveness of the deep learning strategy for extroverted learners. These results suggest that personality-informed instructional strategies can optimize writing instruction, especially for extroverted students who benefit from interactive and collaborative learning environments. The study contributes to the growing body of research on personalized pedagogy and highlights the importance of aligning teaching methods with students’ psychological profiles to maximize learning outcomes.

Abstract

In the context of globalization, societies are increasingly diverse in culture, religion, language, and values. These differences can enrich interactions but also lead to misunderstanding and conflict. This study explores how communication can promote tolerance and unity in heterogeneous communities. A qualitative approach with a systematic literature review was used to analyze studies published in the last decade. The review identifies several key communication strategies: open dialogue, mutual listening, inclusive language, intercultural understanding, and responsible use of media. Empathic communication, respect for differing perspectives, and constructive conflict resolution also play crucial roles in fostering social cohesion. The findings suggest that communication is not only a means of sharing information, but a social tool for building trust, reducing prejudice, and strengthening unity. The study recommends collaboration among individuals, communities, and institutions to support inclusive and empathetic communication. These efforts are essential for developing policies, education systems, and media content that reflect and reinforce values of tolerance in diverse societies.

Abstract

This research examines the role of social media on the self-identity development of university students in the digital era. Using a descriptive qualitative method, this research investigates how social media platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and Facebook shape students’ self-expression and identity construction. Data was gathered through in-depth interviews and a comprehensive literature review. The research reveals that social media provides a space for university students to experiment with self-identity outside of traditional social norms. However, it also poses challenges, such as social pressure and a potential gap between digital and real identities. Key findings suggest that social media can have both positive and negative impacts on students' identity formation. On the one hand, social media enables the development of self-confidence; on the other hand, it can cause social anxiety due to constant comparison with others. The research highlights the importance of wise use of social media in the context of identity formation, taking into account the psychological and social impacts that may arise.
