Abstract

Instagram is one of the most popular social media platforms because it is an application where users can use digital filters and share photos and videos with other users. The emergence of second accounts among Instagram users has revived the fundamental human need to socialise with self-disclosure to those in their surroundings. This study aims to identify and explore the motives and factors that influence and are influenced by self-disclosure among second-account Instagram users. This study employs a scoping review methodology. The results of this study provide an overview of the motives and factors that influence and are influenced by self-disclosure among second-account Instagram users. The identified motives were following trends, fostering openness, and building friendships. The factors identified included openness, self-confidence, context, motivation, personality traits, culture, and dyadic effects.

Abstract

Divorce is a major psychosocial stressor, particularly for women, and is strongly associated with depression, anxiety, and insomnia. Alexithymia—a personality construct characterized by difficulties in identifying and expressing emotions—may complicate emotional adjustment following divorce. This case report presents a 35-year-old Javanese woman who developed depression, anxiety, and insomnia after divorce, accompanied by alexithymia traits. Data were obtained through psychiatric evaluation, semi-structured interviews, and corroborative information from her psychosocial environment. The patient showed persistent mood swings, sleep disturbance, limited emotional expression, and an externally oriented cognitive style. Her difficulties in emotional processing, combined with sociocultural pressures as a divorced woman, contributed to her psychological burden. This report highlights the need for early screening of alexithymia in divorced women and emphasizes targeted interventions such as emotional awareness training, expressive therapies, and culturally sensitive psychosocial support. Recognition of alexithymia may prevent chronic depression and improve resilience in post-divorce care.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed nonverbal communication by introducing face masks into daily interactions, particularly affecting adolescents during a critical phase of socioemotional development. This study investigates how face masks influence the accuracy and cognitive processing of basic facial emotion recognition among Indonesian adolescents. Employing a between-subjects experimental design, 200 adolescents aged 12–18 were randomly assigned to view masked or unmasked facial expressions depicting six basic emotions. Emotion recognition accuracy, reaction times, and confidence ratings were collected using the Labvanced platform. The results indicate that face masks significantly reduce the accuracy of emotion recognition, with the most pronounced impairments observed for disgust and fear. Reaction times were longer across all masked conditions, suggesting increased cognitive load. Anger and sadness, which are more discernible from the eye region, maintained relatively higher recognition rates. Adolescents employed compensatory strategies, such as focusing on the eye region and contextual cues, but these were insufficient to fully counteract the interpretive challenges introduced by masking. The findings have critical implications for adolescent mental health and educational environments. Impaired emotion recognition may contribute to social withdrawal, miscommunication, and emotional dysregulation, ultimately affecting academic performance and peer relationships. These challenges are further complicated by cultural norms in Indonesia that may discourage overt emotional expression. Prolonged mask-wearing may also disrupt the development of emotional intelligence and social cognition. Interventions that promote emotion literacy particularly those that address masked and ambiguous facial cues are recommended. Schools, parents, and policymakers should work collaboratively to support adolescents through targeted educational programs and culturally sensitive socioemotional training.

Abstract

This study examines whether testimonial content on Instagram enhances emotional engagement and strengthens anti-smoking attitudes among Indonesian adolescents. Using a mixed-method design, 100 university students aged 18–24 were exposed to three types of Instagram posts: testimonial visuals, infographics, and text-based messages. Engagement metrics (likes, comments, shares) and sentiment-coded user comments were analyzed through ANOVA and thematic analysis. Results showed that testimonial posts generated the highest interaction, with likes (80%), comments (10%), and shares (5%), nearly doubling engagement compared to infographics and text formats. Sentiment analysis revealed empathy (40%) and fear (25%) as dominant emotional responses, indicating that emotional resonance enhances message retention and peer interaction. These findings suggest that testimonial storytelling on Instagram is more effective than data-driven formats in fostering anti-smoking attitudes among youth. Campaign designers and policymakers should prioritize culturally grounded testimonial narratives to increase relatability, encourage reflection, and promote behavior change, while ensuring inclusivity and ethical implementation.

Abstract

The rapid rise of esports in urban Indonesia has reshaped youth culture and identity, particularly in Bandung, where digital teams act as important spaces for collective belonging. This study investigates how group identity influences in-group bias and behavioral conformity among esports gamers. Using a mixed methods approach combining a survey of 150 players and in-depth interviews with 15 participants, supported by observations at local tournaments, the research revealed that stronger group identity was significantly associated with higher conformity to team norms and stronger favoritism toward in-group members. Qualitative narratives further showed that symbolic markers such as jerseys and team tags, emotional loyalty, and peer-enforced rules play a crucial role in shaping behaviors and reinforcing cohesion both online and offline. These findings highlight that esports communities serve not only as entertainment hubs but also as arenas for identity formation and social learning, suggesting the need for educational and youth development frameworks that recognize the psychosocial value of digital gaming cultures.
