Abstract

Final-year students face peak academic pressure in the form of thesis writing, which can potentially cause academic stress. Physical activities such as running have emerged as a popular coping strategy; however, the quantitative relationship between natural running habits and academic stress among final-year students has not been extensively studied. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between running habits and academic stress among final-year students of Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES). A quantitative approach with a correlational design was employed. A sample of 130 final-year UNNES students from the class of 2022 who were working on their theses was selected using purposive sampling. Running habits were measured using an adaptation of the Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire (GLTEQ), converted to MET per week. Academic stress was measured using an adaptation of the Educational Stress Scale for Adolescents (ESSA) with a 4-point Likert scale. Data were analyzed using Spearman's correlation test. The results showed that students' running habits were very low (mean MET per week = 74.43) and the average academic stress score was in the moderate category (mean = 36.91 out of 64). Spearman's correlation test revealed a significant negative relationship between running habits and academic stress (r_s = -0.246; p = 0.005), with a contribution of only 6.1%. In conclusion, there is a significant but weak negative relationship between running habits and academic stress. Running is beneficial as a stress management strategy but is not a single determining factor.

Abstract

The development of student athletes is a strategic effort to improve athletic performance. However, its implementation still faces various challenges, such as fluctuating performance levels at national events, budget constraints, a lack of competitive events, limited facilities and infrastructure, and the suboptimal continuity of development following the Student Sports Education and Training Center (PPLOP) program. These conditions indicate a gap between the designed development system and the results on the ground. This study aims to analyze the role of Department of Central Java Provincial Youth and Sports in the development of student athletes through the PPLOP program. The study employs a qualitative approach using interview, observation, and documentation techniques, analyzed through triangulation. The results indicate that development has been conducted in a structured and sustainable manner through systematic training programs, objective selection, and regular monitoring. Supporting factors include budgetary support, stakeholder coordination, coach competence, and facilities. Hindering factors include budget constraints, a lack of competitions, limited facilities, and the lack of optimal sustainability in development. In conclusion, the development of student athletes in Central Java is generally good, but it requires strengthening in the areas of sustainability, facilities, and the provision of competitions to enhance the athletes’ competitiveness.

Abstract

Gaming and esports have become increasingly embedded in the daily lives of young adults, yet the psychological experiences of gamers remain unevenly understood. Social anxiety, for example, is often examined as if all players experience it in similar ways. Such an assumption may overlook important differences between individuals. Drawing on a secondary dataset of 13,050 gamers, this study used Latent Class Analysis (LCA) to identify hidden patterns of social anxiety based on responses to the Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN). Seventeen SPIN items were converted into binary indicators before model estimation. Several class solutions were compared using AIC, BIC, and entropy values. The analysis supported a five-class structure consisting of Minimal Anxiety, Performance Anxiety, Moderate Anxiety, Interaction Anxiety, and Severe Anxiety profiles. Distinct response configurations emerged across classes, particularly between performance-related fear and interaction-related discomfort. These findings indicate that social anxiety among gamers does not develop in a uniform manner. Instead, different groups appear to experience anxiety in context-specific ways that may require different forms of psychological support in gaming and esports environments

Abstract

The purpose of study assesses the effectiveness of complex training CT and resistance training RT to enhance sprint speed and leg explosive power and agility and anaerobic capacity of futsal athletes. The research used a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design to study 30 male futsal players aged 15 to 17 who were divided into two groups through random assignment to the CT group n 15 and the RT group n 15. The two groups participated in eight weeks of training which took place three times each week. The researchers used the Tests Sprint 20 Meter and Vertical Jump Test and Illinois Agility Test and Running Anaerobic Sprint Test (RAST) to assess athlete performance. The researchers used paired t-test and independent t-test for data analysis with a significance level of α = 0.05. The study results demonstrated that both training methods produced significant improvements across all performance measurement variables. The CT group outperformed the RT group in their increases for both leg explosive power and anaerobic capacity. The two groups showed no statistically significant differences in their sprint speed and agility performance. The research findings show that complex training functions as a more effective conditioning method which enhances explosiveness and anaerobic capacity in futsal players through Post-Activation Potentiation (PAP) mechanisms.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze shooting skills based on technique and body position when kicking using a biomechanical approach in extracurricular soccer students at SMA Negeri 1 Purbalingga. The method used is descriptive quantitative, data collection through video recordings was analyzed using Kinovea software and then processed using IBM SPSS. The research sample consisted of 10 students using a purposive sampling technique. The variables in this study were body tilt, support foot position, and kick accuracy. The results showed an average body tilt of 39.70°, support foot position of 36.00°, and kick accuracy of 127.0860 cm with quite high variations in each variable. Biomechanically, body tilt is related to body balance, while the position of the support foot plays a role in determining the direction of the force that affects kick accuracy. The biomechanical approach based on video analysis can be used as a reference in evaluating techniques and designing more targeted training to improve body balance, technical consistency, and student kick accuracy.

Abstract

This study examines the collective expression of fanaticism of Persipa Pati supporters through the "Diurus Cah-Cah" movement. Research problems include how forms of collective fanaticism are formed, the driving factors for the emergence of movements, and their impact on the sustainability of the club. This study aims to analyze forms of collective expression, identify causative factors, and assess their impact. The approach used was qualitative descriptive with a purposive sampling technique of 15 informants consisting of supporters, management, fans, and the community. Data was collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and tested by triangulation. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show that collective fanaticism is formed through three main aspects, namely social solidarity, dynamics of collective consciousness, and social integrity and stability. Solidarity is seen through shared activities such as chant, choreography, and social activities. This movement is driven by a sense of belonging, disillusionment with management, and the collective identity of supporters. In addition, this movement has a positive impact by increasing supporter involvement, harmonious relationship with management, and contributing to team performance. It can be concluded that supporters' fanaticism is not only emotional, but also a constructive collective force in supporting the sustainability and development of football clubs.
