Abstract

Background. The success of a Visiting Lecturer program depends not only on material quality but also on communicator credibility, which is crucial for fostering strong student motivation to participate in international forums and succeed in the educational process. Objectives. The short-term research objective is to assess the effectiveness of the Visiting Lecturer program, while the long-term objective is to support policy development for the collaborative program between the two universities. Methods. The study used a comparative quantitative method to explain differences between the two subject groups. Results. The study found a significant positive effect of communicator credibility in the Visiting Lecturer program on Indonesian–Malaysian student motivation, with teaching quality influencing Indonesian students’ motivation by 61.4% and Malaysian students’ motivation by 47.6%. Conclusion: The credibility of communicators in the Visiting Lecturer Collaboration Program plays an essential role in strengthening the motivation of Indonesian–Malaysian students, highlighting its importance in enhancing the effectiveness of international academic collaboration. Implementation. The findings can be implemented by strengthening communicator credibility through lecturer preparation, communication training, and collaborative teaching strategies to further enhance student motivation in international academic programs.

Abstract

Background: Anxiety is a mental health problem that many adolescents experience and has an impact on academic, social, and long-term psychological well-being. Art-based nonpharmacological interventions, particularly choirs with breathing exercises, are reported to have the potential to reduce anxiety. However, systematic integration of scientific evidence remains limited. Objective: This systematic review aims to synthesize scientific evidence on the effect of breathing training during choir activities on anxiety levels in adolescents. Methods: The review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines. Literature searches were conducted on Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect for articles published in the last 10 years. Inclusion criteria include quantitative or mixed-methods studies of adolescents (ages 17–25) that examine breathing training in the context of choir or singing activities and measure anxiety as an outcome. Data is extracted and synthesized narratively. Results: A total of 8 articles met the inclusion criteria. The majority of studies reported a significant reduction in anxiety levels after a breathing training intervention in a choir. The mechanisms identified include activation of physiological relaxation responses, emotion regulation, increased focus, and social support through group activities. Conclusions: Breathing training in choir activities has the potential to be an effective and applicable nonpharmacological intervention to reduce anxiety in adolescents. However, the heterogeneity of the design and measurement instruments is a major limitation. Further research with a more robust experimental design is still needed.
