Abstract

Gifted children in Indonesia are frequently misunderstood due to socio-cultural norms that label inquisitive behaviors as attention-seeking, strange, or arrogant. These misperceptions are compounded by gender norms that pressure gifted girls to be calm and reserved, leading to hidden potential, while gifted boys are often mislabeled as naughty for their curiosity. Such dynamics contribute to significant learning difficulties like underachievement and social isolation, which are rooted in social stigma rather than cognitive deficits. A systematic literature review of 16 studies published between 2020 and 2025 was conducted to synthesize evidence on these challenges. The analysis revealed four primary themes: consistent misidentification due to a lack of teacher training; negative social perceptions leading to stereotyping and bullying; gendered expectations causing loneliness in girls and behavioral mislabeling in boys; and resulting learning difficulties, including boredom and anxiety. The evidence indicates that these learning difficulties are predominantly socially constructed, stemming from a conflict between gifted traits and cultural norms. This highlights an urgent need for culturally responsive teacher training, gender-sensitive identification protocols, and adaptive teaching strategies to create a more inclusive and supportive educational environment for gifted children

Abstract

Mental health is a crucial component of overall well-being, yet it remains an overlooked aspect of community health in Indonesia. This study aimed to improve community mental health by providing training on early detection of mental disorders and Psychological First Aid (PFA) for prospective mental health cadres at the Dlingo II Community Health Center, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta. Using a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest approach, the intervention involved psychoeducation, practical workshops, and role-play sessions on mental health literacy, early detection using the Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20) and SIJIWA application, and basic psychological first aid skills. Data was collected from 29 participants and analyzed using paired sample t-tests. Results showed a significant increase in cadres’ knowledge and skills after the intervention (p < 0.05). Qualitative feedback indicated improved confidence and readiness to support community members experiencing psychological distress. The study concludes that early detection and PFA training can effectively empower community health cadres to play an active role in mental health promotion and prevention. Further integration of structured cadre programs within primary care systems is recommended to enhance sustainability.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of a Person–Organization Fit (P–O Fit)-based soft skills training on work engagement using a true experimental pretest–posttest control group design. A total of 40 rehabilitation-implementing employees were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n = 20) or a control group (n = 20). The experimental group received a structured P–O Fit training intervention, while the control group received no treatment. Work engagement was measured before and after the intervention using the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES). Group differences were analysed using inferential statistical techniques. The results indicated no statistically significant difference in work engagement between the experimental and control groups at posttest (p = 0.935). However, categorical analysis revealed changes in the experimental group's participants' levels of attitude.

Abstract

Chronic illness generates not only physical suffering but also profound existential challenges, particularly among middle-aged and older adults. Within Muslim communities, religiosity often serves as a central framework for interpreting and coping with suffering. This study explores how Muslim middle-aged and older adults living with chronic illness construct religiosity-based meaning to foster self-acceptance and psychological adaptation. Integrating Pargament’s Religious Coping Theory, Frankl’s Logotherapy, and Park’s Meaning-Making Model, this study employed an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) approach with ten participants aged 35–75 diagnosed with various chronic conditions. Semi-structured interviews were thematically analyzed. Four major themes emerged: (1) Divine Attribution, viewing illness as part of God’s will; (2) Self-Acceptance through Surrender; (3) Spiritual Coping through prayer, religious practices, and medical adherence; and (4) Holistic Well-Being, where faith supports resilience and meaning reconstruction. A Religiosity-Based Meaning-Making Model is proposed, highlighting the central role of Islamic faith in promoting psychological well-being.

Abstract

This study presents a preliminary psychometric evaluation of the Indonesian version of the Aggression–Problem Behavior Frequency Scale (A-PBFS) in adolescents. The aim was to examine the internal consistency and factorability of the scale as an initial step toward cultural adaptation in Indonesia. The sample consisted of 30 adolescents aged 12–17 years who met behavioral criteria related to aggression. The A-PBFS consists of 18 items measuring physical, non-physical, and relational aggression. Reliability was examined using Cronbach’s alpha, and construct factorability was assessed using the Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) index and Bartlett’s test of sphericity. Despite the very small pilot sample (N = 30), the results showed excellent internal consistency (α = .947) and preliminary evidence of factorability (KMO = .782; Bartlett’s p < .001), indicating that the Indonesian version of the A-PBFS warrants further large-scale psychometric validation. Although a stable factor structure could not be established due to the limited sample size, these findings suggest that the Indonesian A-PBFS is a promising instrument for future large-scale psychometric validation.

Abstract

Although the use of dating applications has increased rapidly, research examining their positive impacts remains limited compared to studies focusing on their negative consequences and psychological risks. The purpose of this study is to identify topics that have been previously explored and to determine research gaps within the topic of online dating. This study employed a literature review method. The researchers conducted several stages of literature search and selection focusing on empirical studies on online dating published within the last six years (2019–2025). The literature search was performed using the PubMed, Scopus, and Semantic Scholar databases. A total of 100 articles were identified in the initial search using the keyword “online dating” with the assistance of Publish or Perish software. After screening the titles and abstracts and conducting a more detailed review of the articles, the final results showed that only 11 articles met the criteria relevant to the research topic. The findings indicate that online dating is associated with various psychological risks, physical risks, coping strategies, positive outcomes, and its relationships with several behavioral and psychological problems. Future research is recommended to expand the scope of the literature and further explore the positive aspects of online dating to provide a more balanced and comprehensive understanding of this phenomenon.

Abstract

Toxic relationships are a harmful interpersonal phenomenon commonly experienced by young adults, yet the decision to remain in such relationships is often difficult to understand. One psychological factor believed to play a role is anxious attachment, a pattern characterized by fear of abandonment and a high level of emotional dependence on a partner. This study aims to gain an in-depth understanding of the subjective experiences of individuals with anxious attachment tendencies who remain in toxic relationships. This study employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design. The participants consisted of three 19-year-old women who had experienced or were currently involved in unhealthy romantic relationships, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews and analyzed using phenomenological analysis. Four main themes were identified: unhealthy relationship dynamics characterized by emotional instability, overprotective behavior, and poor communication; emotional responses including sadness, overthinking, and fear of loss; factors contributing to staying centered on affection, hope for change, and temporary positive moments; and a process of self-awareness leading to personal growth. Anxious attachment was found to be a significant factor in maintaining individuals in toxic relationships; however, these experiences also open pathways for personal growth and a better understanding of healthy boundaries in romantic relationships.

Abstract

The phenomenon of job hopping has increasingly occurred among Generation Z employees, who tend to change jobs within a relatively short period. One of the factors assumed to influence this tendency is perceived organizational support, defined as employees’ perceptions of how much the organization values their contributions and cares about their well-being. This study aims to examine the relationship between perceived organizational support and job-hopping motives among Generation Z employees in Banda Aceh. This research employed a quantitative approach with a correlational method. The sample consisted of 121 Generation Z employees selected using purposive sampling technique. The instruments used were the Perceived Organizational Support scale (Rhoades & Eisenberger, 2002) and the Job-Hopping Motives scale (Lake et al., 2017). Data was analyzed using Spearman’s rho correlation. The results revealed a significant negative relationship between perceived organizational support and job-hopping motives (ρ = -0.662; p < 0.05). This indicates that higher perceived organizational support is associated with lower job-hopping motives among employees. These findings highlight the important role of organizations in enhancing support to reduce employees’ tendency to change jobs. Practically, organizations in Banda Aceh are encouraged to implement fair compensation systems, strengthen supervisor support through leadership training, and provide clear career development programs to retain Generation Z employees.

Abstract

TThis study is based on the academic demands faced by university students, particularly in managing assignment deadlines that often lead to stress. The aim of this study was to explore the experiences of students with low self-control in facing assignment deadlines and the coping strategies they used. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method involving three students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings showed that students with low self-control tended to engage in academic procrastination, which led to increased deadline pressure, stress, anxiety, and psychological exhaustion. Coping strategies used by students included problem-focused and emotion-focused coping, which were influenced by task demands, emotional conditions, and self-regulation ability. In addition, social support and time management emerged as important contextual and regulatory factors that shape students’ ability to manage academic pressure. In conclusion, self-control, coping strategies, social support, and time management are interrelated factors that influence students' ability to manage assignment deadlines and psychological well-being.

Abstract

Bullying is a prevalent form of school violence and a significant risk factor for adolescent mental health, contributing to distress such as anxiety and depression. This study explored the types of bullying experienced by junior high school students and their psychological implications. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, data were collected from 49 students via a multiple-response survey. Findings revealed that 83.7% of participants had experienced bullying. Verbal bullying was the most common (60.98%), primarily involving teasing and insults, followed by physical (36.59%) and sexual bullying (2.44%). Victims' responses varied, including reporting, confronting perpetrators, or remaining silent. The predominance of verbal bullying highlights its substantial threat to adolescent well-being. These findings underscore the critical need for comprehensive anti-bullying initiatives integrated with school-based mental health promotion programs to foster a safer, more supportive educational environment.
