Abstract

This study examined the role of Leader–Member Exchange (LMX) and work engagement as predictors of job crafting among employees in Indonesia. Grounded in the Job Demands–Resources model, the research was conducted to address the limited empirical evidence on the simultaneous contribution of interpersonal (LMX) and intrapersonal (work engagement) resources to proactive work behaviour in a collectivistic, hierarchical work culture. It was hypothesised that LMX and work engagement would each, and jointly, have a positive effect on job crafting. The study employed a quantitative correlational design using an online survey of 280 employees who met predetermined work-tenure criteria. LMX, work engagement, and job crafting were measured with validated Likert-type scales and analysed using multiple linear regression. The findings showed that both LMX and work engagement significantly predicted job crafting, with work engagement emerging as the stronger predictor; together, both variables explained 52.3% of the variance in job crafting. These results highlight the importance of strengthening employees’ psychological engagement alongside high-quality leader–member relationships to foster adaptive, self-initiated changes in work roles within Indonesian organisations.

Abstract

Abstract: This study aims to examine the relationship between fatherlessness and peer pressure among adolescents in Jakarta. The method used is a design bivariat with a quantitative approach. The sampling technique employed is non-probability sampling of the accidental type, with a total of 384 respondents drawn from the population of adolescents in Jakarta. The instruments used include the Peer pressure Inventory (Clasen & Brown, 1985) and the Father Presence Questionnaire (Krampe & Newton, 2006). The results of the study indicate a significant positive relationship between fatherlessness and peer pressure. This finding suggests that the higher the level of fatherlessness experienced by adolescents, the greater the peer pressure they perceive. In other words, the more absent a father is in an adolescent's life, the stronger the peer pressure they feel, which may lead to behaviors they find undesirable or uncomfortable. This study highlights the importance of a father's presence in supporting the emotional and social development of adolescents and in mitigating the negative impact of peer pressure.

Abstract

Abstract:Fear of Missing Out in this context is defined as the feeling of worry or anxiety when individuals feel left behind from the experiences or information of others, which triggers the desire to stay connected to the activities of others through social media. This study was conducted on 195 social media users. The research method used a quantitative approach with correlational data analysis techniques. Sampling was conducted using non-probability sampling with purposive sampling techniques. Data collection was carried out using several instruments, namely the Fear of Missing Out Scale (FoMOs) and the Brief Self-Control Scale. The results of the study revealed a negative and significant relationship between self-control and FoMO. This means that the higher an individual's self-control ability, the lower the likelihood of experiencing FoMO. Conversely, when self-control is low, the tendency to experience FoMO becomes higher. Therefore, it can be concluded that the hypothesis (Ha) is accepted.

Abstract

Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health problems, with a global prevalence of 301 million cases reported by WHO in 2019. Early adulthood is marked by various life demands that increase vulnerability to psychological problems, including anxiety. One contributing risk factor is childhood experience, particularly the perception of parental conflict. This study aims to examine the relationship between perceived parental conflict during childhood and anxiety disorders in early adulthood. This quantitative correlational study involved 152 early adults aged 18–40 years living in Tangerang who had witnessed parental conflict during childhood. The instruments used were the Children’s Perception of Interparental Conflict (CPIC) scale and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7). Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant positive relationship between perceived parental conflict and anxiety levels in early adulthood.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of work self-efficacy on job crafting among employees. Work self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in their ability to complete work tasks, while job crafting is the effort employees make to adjust their work to better suit their needs and capabilities. This research employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The respondents consisted of 351 employees in Indonesia who had been working for at least one year. The instruments used were the Job Crafting Scale (JCS) and the Occupational Self-Efficacy Scale (OSS). Data analysis was conducted using simple linear regression. The results showed a significant influence of work self-efficacy on job crafting (p = 0.001) with an R² of 0.454. This indicates that work self-efficacy contributes 45.4% to job crafting. In conclusion, the higher the work self-efficacy possessed by employees, the higher the job crafting behavior demonstrated in their work. These findings have important implications for organizational practice in developing employee adaptation and flexibility through strengthening work self-efficacy, especially in the face of dynamic environmental changes.

Abstract

Unemployment in early adult can give rise to psychological dynamics. However, through the ability to survive, adapt, and bounce back, individuals can overcome these conditions. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between hardiness and poverty in early adulthood in Banten Province. The research design used a quantitative correlational method and a non-probability sampling technique using purposive sampling. The sample in this study was a decline in early adulthood totaling 100 respondents. The resilience measurement tool uses the theory of Connor & Davidson (2003) namely the modified Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) with a total of 25 valid items and a reliability coefficient value (α) = 0.911 and on hardiness using the Dispositional Resilience Scale: A Short Hardiness Scale (DRS-15) measuring tool developed by Bartone (1989) which has been modified consisting of 12 valid items with a reliability coefficient (α) = 0.803. The results of the correlation test obtained a significance value of 0.000 (p <0.05) and a correlation coefficient value (r) of 0.591 (p <0.01) obtained the results of early adult learning have high resilience 92% and high resilience 96% can be interpreted that there is a significant positive relationship between resilience and resilience.
