Abstract

Technological developments and the increasing use of smartphones have influenced adolescents' social interaction patterns, including the emergence of phubbing behavior, which is the tendency to ignore others because of focusing on mobile phones. Low self-control is suspected to be a contributing factor to this behavior. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-control and phubbing behavior among students of SMK Tri Arga 2 West Jakarta. The study used a quantitative approach with a simple random sampling technique and involved 200 students as a sample. The instruments used were the Self-Control Scale and the Phubbing Behavior Scale with a 4-point Likert model. All items were declared valid and reliable through validity tests and Cronbach's Alpha > 0.70. Data analysis used the Pearson Correlation test via SPSS version 26. The results showed a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05) and a correlation value of -0.570, indicating a significant and negative relationship between self-control and phubbing behavior. The higher the student's self-control, the lower the phubbing behavior they exhibit. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of guidance and counseling services, particularly in strengthening self-control as a preventive effort to reduce phubbing behavior in the school environment.

Abstract

Father involvement during adolescence remains relatively low and may negatively impact boys' social skills and emotional regulation. This research aims to provide deeper insight into how adolescent boys’ attachment to their fathers contributes to their social-emotional development. This study employed an associative quantitative method involving 71 respondents selected through purposive sampling, based on the criteria of male students aged 15–18 years who lived with their fathers. Data were collected using adapted research instruments, namely the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA) and the Social-Emotional and Character Development Scale (SECDS). Simple linear regression analysis was used to test the hypothesis. The results show a significant influence of father–son attachment on social-emotional development (Fcount = 15.817 > Ftable = 3.98; p < 0.05). The determination coefficient (R Square) of 0.186 indicates that 18.6% of the variation in social-emotional development is explained by attachment to fathers, while the remaining 81.4% is influenced by other unexamined factors. The findings highlight the importance of fathers' involvement in fostering adolescents' social-emotional development. Therefore, schools are encouraged to optimize guidance and counseling services by providing family engagement programs, including parenting workshops and father–child counseling, to strengthen paternal support.

Abstract

Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5Is) are widely prescribed for erectile dysfunction; however, growing evidence indicates that their pharmacological effects extend beyond urological indications and involve multiple organ systems. This narrative review aims to synthesize and critically evaluate current evidence on the systemic effects of PDE5 inhibitors across cardiovascular, renal, neurological, and urological domains, as well as emerging therapeutic indications. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science for studies published up to May 2024, including preclinical studies, clinical trials, observational studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. The reviewed evidence demonstrates that PDE5 inhibitors are associated with reduced cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, improvements in cardiac and pulmonary hemodynamics, preservation of renal function in diabetic populations, potential neuroprotective effects against cognitive decline and ischemic stroke, and symptomatic improvement in benign prostatic hyperplasia and lower urinary tract symptoms. Additional benefits have been reported in conditions characterized by vascular dysfunction, such as angina pectoris and Raynaud’s phenomenon. Overall, PDE5 inhibitors represent a pharmacologically versatile drug class with clinically relevant systemic effects beyond erectile dysfunction, supporting their potential role as adjunctive therapies in broader disease management, although further well-designed randomized controlled trials are needed to inform clinical guidelines.

Abstract

The increasing prevalence of self-harm behavior among adolescents presents a serious concern for schools and mental health practitioners, creating an urgent demand for research that explores underlying psychological determinants, including the role of emotional maturity in shaping students' coping responses to emotional distress. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between emotional maturity and self-harm behavior among tenth and eleventh-grade adolescents at SMK Negeri 16 Jakarta. This study employed a quantitative correlational design using a survey approach. Emotional maturity and self-harm behavior were measured using Likert-scale questionnaires. A total of 108 students from three classes participated in the study. The data were analyzed using simple linear regression. The results showed a significant relationship between emotional maturity and self-harm behavior. These findings indicate that higher emotional maturity is associated with a lower likelihood of self-harm behavior among students at SMK Negeri 16 Jakarta.

Abstract

The phenomenon of relational aggression among students is increasingly evident in peer interactions. This condition is often associated with students’ levels of self-esteem, as individuals with lower self-esteem tend to be more vulnerable to displaying relationally aggressive behaviors. This research aims to examine the relationship between relational aggression and self-esteem among students at SMP Negeri 95 Jakarta Utara, as well as to describe the overall patterns of both variables. This research employed a descriptive quantitative approach, involving a sample of 180 students from SMP Negeri 95 Jakarta Utara. The measurement tools consisted of two questionnaires developed by the researcher. Validity testing indicated that all items in both instruments were valid, and the reliability test using Cronbach’s alpha yielded coefficients of 0.87 for the self-esteem questionnaire and 0.88 for the relational aggression questionnaire, indicating strong reliability. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 27 with a correlational technique. The findings revealed a significant relationship between self-esteem (X) and relational aggression (Y). The correlation between the two variables was categorized as weak, with a negative coefficient of –0.255, indicating that higher self-esteem is associated with lower levels of relational aggression among students.

Abstract

This study examines buyer power beyond conventional price-based mechanisms, positioning buyers as collective and ethical agents who shape market outcomes. Drawing on perspectives from capitalism, sustainability, and consumer collectivism, the research explores how demographic characteristics, brand loyalty, life-stage dynamics, and evaluative behaviours influence purchasing decisions and customer satisfaction. Using a quantitative methodology, survey and company data were analysed through descriptive statistics, regression analysis, and chi-square tests. The findings show that age, spending level, brand loyalty, and product ratings significantly predict customer satisfaction, while purchasing preferences vary systematically across life stages. Young single couples and retirees tend to favour mainstream offerings, whereas family groups are more budget-oriented, reflecting differing social responsibilities and financial constraints. These patterns demonstrate that buyer power operates not only through purchasing capacity but also through shared values, feedback mechanisms, and collective behaviour. Overall, the study highlights buyers as socially situated actors whose choices influence pricing strategies, competition, and long-term market sustainability beyond narrow capitalist interpretations.

Abstract

This study was conducted against the growing importance of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in enhancing teaching effectiveness and achieving sustainable development in education. However, despite increased access to ICT, concerns remain regarding the competency of academic staff in its effective utilization. This study therefore investigated the influence of ICT teaching competency skills on the productivity of academic staff at Alvan Ikoku Federal University of Education, Owerri. A quantitative approach using a descriptive survey design was adopted. The population comprised 735 academic staff, from which a sample of 300 was selected using cluster random sampling. Data were collected using a validated researcher-developed rating scale (ASICTTCSRS) with reliability coefficients of 0.86 and 0.81. Mean and standard deviation were used to answer research questions, while z-test was employed to test hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that ICT teaching competency skills significantly enhance academic staff productivity. However, the level of ICT competency possessed by the staff was significantly below the expected average, indicating a gap between awareness and practical skills. The study concludes that improving ICT competency is essential for enhancing productivity and achieving sustainable development. It recommends targeted training and institutional support to strengthen ICT integration in teaching practices.

Abstract

Body shaming is a prevalent issue among adolescents and is associated with negative psychological outcomes. This study aimed to examine the predictive effect of body shaming on self-blaming among vocational high school students. A quantitative predictive correlational design was employed, involving 820 students. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression. The results showed that body shaming significantly predicted self-blaming (β = 0.146, p = 0.039). The correlation coefficient (R = 0.346) indicated a weak to moderate relationship, while the coefficient of determination (R² = 0.321) revealed that body shaming accounted for 32.1% of the variance in self-blaming. These findings contribute to the literature by highlighting the role of body shaming in shaping maladaptive self-evaluative processes. Practically, the results emphasize the importance of school-based interventions to reduce body shaming and strengthen adolescents’ self-concept to mitigate negative psychological outcomes.

Abstract

Teachers’ organizational commitment is an important factor in maintaining performance quality, loyalty, and the sustainability of educational processes in schools. However, the level of teachers’ commitment often varies in practice, highlighting the need to understand the factors that can enhance it. This study aims to analyze the influence of organizational culture and agile leadership on teachers’ organizational commitment. A quantitative approach was employed using the SEM-PLS analysis method. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to teacher respondents and analyzed to examine the relationships among variables in the research model. The results show that agile leadership has a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment, with a path coefficient of 0.181, a t-statistic of 3.047, and a p-value of 0.002. In addition, organizational culture also has a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment, with a path coefficient of 0.699, a t-statistic of 11.519, and a p-value of 0.000. These findings indicate that stronger implementation of agile leadership and a well-established organizational culture contribute to higher levels of teachers’ organizational commitment. Therefore, strengthening organizational culture and implementing adaptive leadership are important strategies to enhance teachers’ commitment within educational institutions.

Abstract

Gender differences in organizational commitment remain inconsistently reported across studies, highlighting the need for further empirical investigation. This study aims to examine differences in organizational commitment between male and female employees. A cross-sectional comparative design was employed using a quantitative approach. The sample consisted of 85 employees (45 females and 40 males). Data were collected using an organizational commitment scale based on Meyer and Allen’s framework and analyzed using the Rasch model to obtain logit measures, followed by a Welch t-test to assess group differences. The results revealed a significant difference in organizational commitment between female and male employees, with females demonstrating higher levels of commitment, t (81) = 3.50, p = 0.001, and a moderate-to-large effect size (Cohen’s d ≈ 0.77). These findings indicate that gender is significantly associated with variations in organizational commitment. This study contributes to the literature by integrating Rasch measurement with inferential statistical analysis to provide a more robust examination of gender differences in organizational commitment. The findings also suggest the importance of developing targeted human resource strategies to enhance employee engagement and organizational attachment.
