Abstract

High social media use among adolescents contributes to Fear of Missing Out (FoMO), an anxiety driven by cognitive distortions that encourages compulsive online engagement. Vocational high school students are particularly vulnerable because demanding academic and practical training schedules often lead them to seek psychological compensation through social media. This study aimed to: (1) describe students’ FoMO levels before and after the intervention, (2) explain the implementation of cognitive restructuring in group counseling, and (3) examine its effectiveness in reducing FoMO. A quantitative quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group was employed. Twenty eleventh-grade students with high FoMO scores were assigned to an experimental group (n = 10) and a control group (n = 10). Data were collected using an adapted FoMO Scale (28 valid items; Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.907). The intervention consisted of seven group counseling sessions based on Cormier and Cormier’s (1985) six-stage cognitive restructuring model. The independent samples t-test showed a significant effect (t = 16.906, p < .001). Students in the experimental group improved from high/very high to moderate/low FoMO levels, whereas the control group showed no meaningful change. These findings provide empirical evidence that structured cognitive restructuring is effective for reducing FoMO among vocational high school students and supports its integration into school guidance and counseling services to promote adolescents’ digital wellbeing.

Abstract

Work readiness among final-year university students remains suboptimal despite its critical role in determining a successful transition into the workforce. This study aimed to examine the influence of psychological capital and digital literacy on work readiness among final-year students at Semarang State University (UNNES). This research employed a quantitative correlational approach. The population consisted of 5,228 students, with a sample of 331 final-year students drawn using proportionate random sampling. Data were collected using three adapted psychological scales and analyzed using multiple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics version 26. The results of the analysis show that psychological capital and digital literacy have a simultaneous effect on the work readiness of final-year students at UNNES, with a calculated F-value of 227,673 and p = 0.000 < 0.05. Partially, psychological capital has an effect with a t-value of 6,124, followed by digital literacy which has a dominant effect with a t-value of 17,527. Together, both variables contributed 58.1% to work readiness, while the remaining 41.9% was attributable to other factors beyond the scope of this study, including soft skills, internship experience, and social support. These findings offer practical implications for universities need to develop student oriented programs that build psychological capital while also improving digital literacy in preparing graduates for the competitive labor market.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of proactive personality on career adaptability among students and the moderating role of career decision-making self-efficacy (CDMSE) in this relationship, using PROCESS Macro analysis. The focus of this study is to deepen the theoretical understanding of the conditions that strengthen or weaken the relationship between proactive personality and student career adaptability. A correlational design with a quantitative approach was employed with 175 students at Semarang State University. Data were collected using three standardized instruments: the Proactive Personality Scale Short Version (PPS-SV), a CDMSE adapted from the Career and Educational Decision Self-Efficacy Inventory (CEDSIS), and the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS). The analysis shows that proactive personality has a positive and significant effect on career adaptability (B = .4013; p < .001), and CDMSE also has a significant positive effect (B = 2.0365; p < .001; r = .870). However, the interaction test indicates that CDMSE does not significantly moderate the effect of proactive personality on career adaptability (F(1,171) = 3.2734; p = .0722). This confirms that CDMSE functions as a strong direct predictor rather than a moderating variable. These findings enrich the literature on Indonesian students’ career adaptability and open up further research directions to explore other mediator or moderator variables.
