Abstract

Islamic boarding schools (Pesantren) are crucial educational institutions in Indonesia, characterized by their unique learning systems, values, and diverse student demographics. However, they face challenges, such as a lack of sufficient caregivers and teachers, limiting their ability to address students' varied needs, which range across age, gender, culture, and personal concerns. This study aims to develop a peer helper model that integrates Islamic boarding school values to overcome these limitations and provide better support for students, particularly for adolescents. Using a literature review and content analysis of various reference sources, this study found that peer helpers, designed with pesantren values, offer an potential solution by addressing the students' challenges through peer relationships, which are more significant during adolescence. The peer helper model includes essential components such as selecting suitable peer helper characteristics, equipping them with necessary skills, and implementing effective support strategies. This culturally relevant model not only compensates for the limited availability and competence of caregivers and teachers but also provides a framework adaptable to other educational settings with similar issues. The integration of religious and cultural values into student support systems demonstrates the importance of culturally responsive approaches in enhancing student well-being in educational contexts.

Abstract

Characteristics of Generation Z (Gen Z), especially final-year university students, have different attitudes, expectations, strengths, and weakness compared to previous generations when facing the job market. However, there is still a lack of literature discussing Gen Z in their career journey. Previous research indicates that psychological capital is a psychological resource by individuals in job performance and adapting to the workforce. This narrative review aims to provide an overview of Psychological Capital (PsyCap) in Gen Z when facing the job market. A literature review was conducted on 24 articles obtained from seven sources: Emerald Insight, Google Scholar, ProQuest, Sage Journal, SpringerLink, Taylor Francis, Science direct and Sinta Database. From the 24 literatures that met the inclusion criteria, this study focuses on four aspects: (1) characteristics Gen Z facing the workforce, (2) the differences PsyCap Gen Z with previous generation, (3) importance PsyCap in facing workforce, (4) and intervention to enhance PsyCap. From the literature analysis, it can be concluded that the PsyCap of Gen Z in several studies shows varied results. Some indicate that Gen Z’s PsyCap in lower than previous generations, while other studies find that Gen Z’s PsyCap is in the medium to high category. These differences show that although there are concerns about the low PsyCap of Gen Z, there is potential that this generation has an openness to possessing good psychological capacities in facing challenges. Therefore, interventions to enhance PsyCap for students are crucial for higher educations institutions to prepare graduates who are psychologically ready to compete in the job market.

Abstract

The present focus of school counselling accountability extends beyond merely tallying activities and time invested by counsellors; it necessitates that school counsellors implement results-oriented and evidence-based methods. This study is to examine the literature about trends, models, and barriers faced by counsellors in the implementation of accountability practices. This study employs a Narrative literature review and Bibliometric analysis covering the period from 2003 to 2023, analysed using Vosviewer. The research findings indicate that the literature on accountability in school counselling is intricately linked to program evaluation, data-driven decision-making, and stakeholder collaboration, all aimed at enhancing the efficacy of counselling services in educational institutions and ultimately fostering student success. The findings of the narrative literature review elucidate models that serve as references for school counsellors in implementing accountability practices, specifically data-driven decision-making, the transformative individual school counselling model, MEASURE, the evidence-based model, and the IDEAS model. Additionally, researchers identified accountability barriers stemming from both internal and external factors affecting school counsellors.These findings may serve as a foundation for future study aimed at establishing a data-driven approach to enhance school counsellor accountability.

Abstract

This quasi-experimental study examines the effectiveness of play therapy using the Ajining Dhiri (ADHI) puppet medium to enhance self-esteem in slow learners. Utilizing a pretest-posttest control group design, the study involved 16 slow learners with low self-esteem, as measured by the Self-Esteem Inventory by Coopersmith (1978), validated (r=0.711–0.794) and reliable (Cronbach's alpha=0.760). Participants were divided into a treatment group receiving play therapy with ADHI puppets and a control group receiving standard group counseling. Data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Baseline findings revealed that 50% of students scored low in Strength (recognition and respect), 62.5% moderate in Significance (acceptance and affection), 75% moderate in Virtue (ethical behavior), and 87.5% low in Ability (task performance). Post-intervention results demonstrated significant improvements in self-esteem across all indicators for the treatment group. The Mann-Whitney U test yielded a value of 0.000, Z = -5.093, and a p-value < 0.05, confirming a significant difference between the treatment and control groups. The play therapy sessions, structured in three phases, enabled students to explore self-expression and cognitive engagement through puppet interactions. Compared to the control group, students in the treatment group showed greater enthusiasm and consistent self-esteem improvements. These findings validate the alternative hypothesis (H1) that play therapy using ADHI puppet media effectively enhances self-esteem in slow learners, offering a culturally contextualized and engaging intervention for addressing their psychological needs.

Abstract

This study explores the career readiness of vocational school students in Bengkulu and examines how secondary cultural values, particularly the Serawai tribe’s Sekundang Setungguan philosophy, can inform effective career guidance frameworks. Utilizing a quantitative descriptive methodology with a survey approach, data were collected from 347 students across grades X, XI, and XII through a Career Readiness Inventory distributed via Google Forms. The inventory's validity and reliability were tested using the Rasch model with Winstep software, resulting in 37 valid items out of 42. Findings indicate weak career readiness among students in key areas such as career exploration, decision-making, job information access, and occupational knowledge. Gender analysis reveals higher readiness levels among female students, while the Serawai ethnic group outperforms others in career preparedness. Factors influencing career planning include parental aspirations, limited guidance, and cultural diversity. The study underscores the importance of fostering career awareness early, incorporating cultural strengths into guidance programs. The Serawai values of cooperation, resilience, and mutual support provide a foundation for cultivating responsibility, empathy, and perseverance among students. These cultural frameworks can address career uncertainties and enhance readiness through collaborative efforts involving families, schools, and communities. By leveraging cultural values and fostering robust support systems, vocational students are better equipped to navigate challenges and seize opportunities, contributing to societal growth. The findings highlight the significance of culturally informed guidance to prepare students for the complexities of the modern workforce.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of the Community Guidance Model on women’s empowerment in the fishing village of Nelayan, Pangandaran Regency, Indonesia. It explores how this model promotes gender equality by enhancing social support, improving resource access, and driving cultural change. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research focuses on women participating in the community guidance program, selected through purposive sampling. Data collection methods included in-depth interviews, participant observations, and analysis of program documents. Thematic analysis revealed that the Community Guidance Model significantly strengthens social support networks, grants women greater access to economic and educational resources, and fosters a shift in cultural norms that traditionally limit women’s roles. These changes enable women to take on active roles within their communities, enhancing both their welfare and social standing. The study concludes that the Community Guidance Model is an effective strategy for empowering women in fishing villages, offering a pathway to sustainable gender equity and social inclusion. These findings support the expansion of such programs to achieve lasting improvements in the well-being and agency of women across Indonesian coastal communities.

Abstract

The lack of empathy shown by counselors towards their clients is a significant concern, as it can create discomfort and make clients reluctant to talk. To enhance empathy skills, it is essential to consider cultural aspects, one of which is drawing inspiration from the virtues contained in Serat Wedharaga to enrich the empathy abilities of prospective counselors. This study used a qualitative approach with a hermeneutic design, including data collection, analysis, and interpretation steps. The findings from the analysis of Serat Wedharaga have the potential to significantly contribute to improving counselor empathy. The study identified values such as humility, honesty, a learning spirit, responsibility, polite language, and perseverance. The main aspects of empathy, including social interaction, cognitive behavior, and emotional identification, were integrable with these values. For example, the values of humility and honesty in Serat Wedharaga support good communication skills in terms of social interaction. Similarly, the text’s spirit of learning and responsibility supports the understanding and imagination of others' views and perspectives in cognitive behavior. Additionally, the values of polite language and perseverance in Serat Wedharaga support the ability to feel and understand others' emotions in terms of emotional identification. These findings provide an essential basis for developing aspects of empathy that can be integrated with the concept of empathy, which can later be applied to enrich the guidance and counseling curriculum, including adding an empathy development course for prospective counselors.

Abstract

Important for vocational students to achieve psychological well-being amidst technological developments that increase self-critical behaviour. Information overload, increased self-com, and other psychological health issues can increase self-critical behaviour. This can hinder the achievement of the six dimensions of psychological well-being. So, it is necessary to know the correlation between these two variables in vocational students. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-criticism on psychological well-being in vocational students. A total of 1812 students were included, and participants completed assessments of self‐criticism and psychological well-being. The result is self-criticism and psychological well-being is in a medium category with scores M = 60.34; SD = 2.86 and M = 118.48; SD = 2.53 sequentially. Analyses assessed the extent to which the intercept and linear slope of self‐criticism were associated with assessments of psychological well‐being. Findings suggest that a decrease in self-criticism is associated with better psychological well-being in vocational students. There was a relationship between self-criticism and psychological well-being. The implication of this finding suggests applying intervention with a focus on reducing self-criticism to improve student’s psychological well-being.

Abstract

Intimate Partner Violence (IPV)  refers to violence inflicted by partners that can result in traumatic consequences for the victim. IPV not only adversely affects both physical and mental health but could also enable individuals to achieve positive changes after trauma, a phenomenon recognized as Post Traumatic Growth (PTG). PTG is intricately linked with various factors, one noteworthy factor being coping strategies. Among these strategies, religious coping is a significant approach that individuals adopt when confronted with difficulties and challenges. This research seeks to conduct a literature review on studies related to understanding posttraumatic growth and examining the role of religious coping in the recovery process of individuals who have experienced IPV. The method of this reserach is based on the De Klerk & Pretorius (2019), which follows these steps: (1) selecting reserach topic, (2) finding relevant resources, (3) selecting key liteature (4) data extraction (5) analyzing data, (6) presenting the findings, and (7) drawing conclusions. A total of 23 articles from 2014 to 2024 were eligible and analyzed to explore the relationship between PTG and religious coping among IPV survivors. Results of the present review suggest that religious coping is associated with PTG by transforming meaning in life, using faith and religious practices as a source of personal strength, and improving relationships with others. These aspects are aligned with the domains of PTG, namely changes in outlook on life, perception of self, and experience of relationships with others.  This findings provides implications for practitioners to integrate religious coping strategies into the recovery process of IPV survivors to help them promote growth.
