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

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

This study investigated the association between conscientiousness and resilience among Indonesian university students. Using a cross-sectional correlational design, data were collected from 307 students enrolled in public and private universities in Indonesia. Conscientiousness was measured using the International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) Conscientiousness Scale, and resilience was assessed using the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). Spearman correlation analysis revealed a significant positive association between conscientiousness and resilience (rₛ = .249, p < .01). The findings indicate that students characterized by greater self-discipline, responsibility, and goal orientation tend to exhibit higher levels of resilience. Although the association was modest in magnitude, the results support personality-based models of resilience and suggest that conscientiousness represents one of multiple factors contributing to adaptive functioning in emerging adulthood. Interventions aimed at strengthening self-regulatory capacities may therefore complement resilience-building efforts within higher education settings. Longitudinal studies are needed to examine causal pathways and identify additional determinants of resilience among university students.

Abstract

This study aims to describe relationship anxiety in young adult women who have been orphaned. The research approach used was a qualitative case study method, involving five informants aged 18–25 years. The results showed that the anxiety experienced by participants was reflected in three main aspects: physical aspects, including heart palpitations, trembling, and difficulty sleeping when facing conflict or communicating. Cognitive aspects include overthinking, resentment towards partners, and negative beliefs about relationships. And behavioral aspects include impulsive reactions, emotional dependence, and dominant or avoidant behavior in relationships. Of these three aspects, the behavioral aspect was found to be the most dominant, seen from consistent behavioral patterns such as the tendency to maintain unhealthy relationships, fear of abandonment, and showing excessive control in relationships. These findings confirm that the experience of orphanhood has a strong impact on the expression of anxious behavior in romantic relationships in young adult women.

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.

Abstract

Indonesia possesses the world’s largest volunteer population, yet the act of volunteering often requires significant sacrifices of personal resources that can impact individual well-being. This study investigates the influence of altruism and gratitude as predictors of flourishing among volunteers in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta. Using a quantitative approach and a predictive correlational design, data were gathered from 228 respondents through accidental sampling. Flourishing was measured using The Flourishing Scale, while altruism and gratitude were assessed using the Generative Altruism Scale and the Gratitude Questionnaire–6, respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that both altruism and gratitude significantly and positively influence flourishing. Individually, altruism accounts for 23.4% of the variance in flourishing, while gratitude explains a substantial 65.7%. When combined, these variables account for 66.6% of the total variance. These findings suggest that fostering altruism and gratitude is essential for sustaining the psychological thriving of individuals within the volunteer sector.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effect of self-compassion on loneliness among early adults with introverted tendencies in DKI Jakarta. The study employed a quantitative approach with a survey design involving 79 respondents aged 18–30 years, selected using purposive sampling. Research instruments included the UCLA Loneliness Scale Version 3, the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS), and the Big Five Inventory (BFI-10) as a screening tool for introverted personality tendencies. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS. The results indicated that self-compassion had a significant negative effect on loneliness (p < 0.05), with a contribution of 49.2%, suggesting that higher levels of self-compassion are associated with lower levels of loneliness. These findings are consistent with Cognitive Discrepancy Theory, which explains that loneliness is influenced by how individuals interpret discrepancies between expectations and the reality of social relationships. The study highlights the importance of developing self-compassion as a psychological protective factor in reducing loneliness among early adults with introverted tendencies.

Abstract

The automotive industry requires competent and responsible employees, yet counterproductive work behavior (CWB) remains a concern among production workers. Although meaningful work has been proposed as a factor that may reduce CWB, findings from previous studies remain inconsistent, particularly in manufacturing settings. This study examined the relationship between meaningful work and CWB among 228 production employees in an automotive company in Cikarang, Indonesia. A quantitative correlational design with total population sampling was employed. Data were collected using the Work and Meaning Inventory (WAMI) and the Counterproductive Work Behavior Checklist (CWB-C). The results of Spearman’s rank-order correlation indicated no significant relationship between meaningful work and CWB (ρ = .03, p = .652). These findings suggest that meaningful work may not be directly associated with counterproductive work behavior among production employees. Future research should examine additional individual, job-related, and organizational factors that may contribute to counterproductive work behavior in manufacturing settings.
