<![CDATA[Purpose: This study aims to examine the effect of binaural beats in the alpha brain wave range on the working memory of Psychology students at Padjadjaran University, class of 2023. Alpha waves are associated with a relaxed yet alert state of consciousness. Research methodology: A quantitative experimental method was used with a one-group pretest-posttest design. Fifty participants were selected through stratified random sampling. The Brown-Peterson Task was employed to assess working memory, and data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. Results: The post-test scores (M = 4.38; SD = 1.50) were higher than the pre-test scores (M = 4.00; SD = 1.47), indicating an improvement in working memory after exposure to alpha binaural beats. Wilcoxon analysis confirmed a significant difference. Conclusions: Alpha wave binaural beats significantly improved the working memory of Psychology students at Unpad class of 2023. Limitations: The pretest-posttest method may have introduced familiarity bias. Future research should modify post-test content to minimize this effect and involve larger, more diverse samples to enhance generalizability. Contribution: This study contributes to students by considering techniques for improving their working memory abilities.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: In this study, parental mediation is explained through the perception of children about their parents’ behavior. Methods: This study used a non-experimental descriptive method and described the following four strategies: active co-use, interaction restriction, technical restriction, and monitoring. The measurement tool used was a questionnaire on children’s perceptions of parental mediation. Data were collected from 240 children aged 9–12 years from two elementary schools. Results: The results showed that children perceived their parents to use the strategy of active co-use and interaction restriction at a moderate level, and monitoring at a low level. In the strategy of technical restriction, the data show that most children perceived that their parents did not use technical means to restrict internet use. Conclusions: Children perceived their parents as moderately involved in guiding and restricting Internet use, but with limited monitoring and minimal use of technical restrictions. This highlights the need for more balanced mediation strategies. Limitations: This study relied solely on children's perceptions. Future research should collect data from parents and children for comparative purposes. Contribution: This study contributes on the perception of children of Parental Mediation on Internet Use]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: To understand the process of late adolescents facing "pressure and storms" and experiencing physical punishment from their parents. Research methodology: This qualitative phenomenological study involved two NTT male teens (ages 18–22) who experienced corporal punishment. Data were collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews. Results: The results of the study showed that both participants used long-term stress coping and short-term stress coping as an effort to deal with "pressure and storms" due to corporal punishment by their parents. Both participants used short-term stress coping to avoid problems and minimize stress. Participant 1 used long-term stress coping to accept the situation and adapt to the family's wishes. Participant 2 used long-term stress coping to find his identity and avoid conflicts with his parents. Conclusions: Harsh parenting, such as physical punishment, causes children to feel pressured and afraid. NTT adolescents who experienced it expressed emotions, ran away, or chose to live apart to escape the pressure. Limitations: This study focuses less on the educational background of the participants and does not examine the role of culture in overcoming corporal punishment. Contribution: It is hoped that this research can enrich the reader's knowledge and apply it to life regarding the process of facing pressure and storms due to corporal punishment.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: This study aimed to comprehensively describe the stress-coping strategies implemented by civil servants (Aparatur Sipil Negara/ASN) aged 40 years and above, focusing on the various cognitive, emotional, and behavioral approaches they employ to manage occupational stress. The research sought to explore how these individuals respond to work-related pressures, administrative demands, interpersonal challenges, and organizational changes, as well as to identify the internal and external resources—such as personal resilience, family support, peer relationships, and institutional support systems—that contribute to their coping processes. Research methodology: This was a qualitative case study. Participants in this study were two civil servants (ASN) in their 40s who were pursuing further education while working. Data collection was conducted through in-depth, semi-structured interviews. Results: The results of this study indicate that both participants used different stress-coping techniques, which were tailored to the unique aspects of each participant, including their economic circumstances and the social environment around them. Conclusions: Both subjects applied positive coping strategies in different but effective ways. Subject H completed their studies, while subject J remains motivated in finishing their final project. Limitations: This study only included married participants consist of individuals from a single ethnic group located in Indonesia. Contribution: This study is expected to provide an overview of the stress-coping strategies of civil servants (ASN) pursuing further education.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: This study aims to examine the psychological consequences of human–AI interdependence by proposing a dual-agency framework. The main focus is on how attachment to AI, changes in self-concept, and their impact on mental health can be understood within the context of human relationships with relational agents such as chatbots and virtual companions. Research methodology: The study employs a mixed-methods design. First, a longitudinal survey of 1,200 AI users was conducted to measure attachment anxiety and avoidance toward AI. Second, a phenomenological analysis of human–AI relational narratives was carried out to explore subjective experiences. Quantitative data were analyzed using path regression and correlation, while qualitative data were examined through thematic analysis. Results: Initial findings reveal a paradox. AI interdependence reduced loneliness in the short term (? = ?0.32, p < 0.01), but after six months it showed a positive correlation with decreased human empathy (r = 0.18, p < 0.05). Thematic analysis indicated that anthropomorphic transference is the main mediator in this dynamic. Conclusions: AI is no longer merely viewed as a tool but as a quasi-social actor that can influence human relational patterns. Although it provides short-term emotional benefits, intensive interaction with AI has the potential to shift interpersonal relational capacity. Limitations: The limitations of this study include reliance on self-report data, cultural bias in attachment measurement, and the absence of clinical evaluations of respondents’ mental health. Contribution: This study expands the understanding of digital interdependence by emphasizing the need for ethical guidelines in designing relational AI that supports psychological well-being.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: This study investigates the impact of ASEAN’s deepening economic integration on workers’ mental health. This study focuses on transnational exposure through trade dependence and foreign direct investment (FDI)and its psychological consequences via job insecurity and cultural mismatch. Research methodology: Using cross-sectional survey data from 5,000 cross-border workers in six ASEAN countries, the research applies a multilayer network model combining (1) an economic exposure index (trade/GDP ratio and FDI inflows), (2) DSM-5-based anxiety and depression scales, and (3) moderated mediation testing for cultural buffers, particularly collectivism. Results: Findings show that Higher export-to-GDP ratios significantly predicted increased anxiety symptoms (? = 0.42, p < 0.001), fully mediated by precarious employment. Contrary to expectations, collectivism exacerbated stress among low-skilled workers (? = 0.21, p = 0.03). Network analysis further revealed bridging nodes linking economic sectors and mental health outcomes, thereby emphasizing systemic interdependence. Conclusions: ASEAN economic interdependence generates measurable psychological costs for labor, particularly through insecure employment arrangements in Malaysia. Rather than mitigating stress, cultural collectivism may intensify pressure in vulnerable conditions. Limitations: The cross-sectional design restricts causal inference, and self-reported measures may carry bias. Broader longitudinal and qualitative approaches are required to validate these findings. Contribution: This study provides the first empirical evidence of macroeconomic-mental health linkages in the ASEAN region. This highlights the necessity of policy interventions, including selective de-growth strategies, in sectors heavily reliant on external trade to protect worker well-being.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: This study aims to bridge quantum psychology with dyadic interdependence theory by modeling relational states as entangled systems. The main focus is to examine whether decision-making in interdependent relationships exhibits patterns that go beyond classical logical predictions. Research Methodology: The research adopts a mixed-method approach. First, a quantum probability framework is applied to predict non-local correlations in partner judgments, including the simultaneity of trust and conflict. Second, a behavioral experiment was conducted with 150 couples, where they faced a series of conflict and collaboration scenarios. The analysis focused on violations of classical probability in interdependent choices. Results: The findings reveal the presence of quantum interference effects (|?|² = 0.78) when couples resolved conflicts. This indicates that cognitive interdependence does not fully conform to classical probability principles but instead demonstrates superpositional dynamics of attitudes that are characteristic of quantum models. Conclusions: Relational interdependence operates through quantum cognitive mechanisms that allow couples to simultaneously express trust and conflict. This challenges traditional rational frameworks and underscores the need for new perspectives in understanding dyadic relationships. Limitations: The study is limited to heterogeneous adult couples and employs an experimental design that still requires expansion into more diverse cultural contexts and relational types. Contribution: This research proposes a quantum interdependence model that redefines relational dynamics, with practical implications for couple therapy and organizational behavior, while also extending the application of quantum psychology to the social domain.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: This study investigates how mandatory smartphone abstinence, framed as digital detox interventions, influences relational interdependence within collectivist cultural contexts. Specifically, it examines whether such interventions alter dyadic synchronization and emotional co-regulation, highlighting potential cultural moderation effects. Research Methodology: Using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) over a 14-day period, data were collected from 300 participants (150 dyads) in Japan and Indonesia. Dyadic adjustment was measured with the Dyadic Adjustment Scale, while physiological synchronization was assessed through heart rate variability (HRV) coherence using wearable devices. Comparisons were made before and after the digital detox period, and moderation by relational hierarchy and cultural background was analyzed. Results: Findings revealed that digital detox significantly increased face-to-face interaction time (d = 1.2, p < 0.001). However, paradoxically, physiological synchronization decreased in hierarchical relationships such as parent–child (? = ?0.45, p = 0.02). Strong cultural moderation effects were observed, with collectivist norms shaping both behavioral and physiological outcomes. Conclusions: Although digital detox policies can enhance direct social engagement, they may unintentionally disrupt non-verbal interdependence in relational contexts characterized by hierarchy. This suggests that blanket digital disconnection strategies may not universally support relational health. Limitations: The study relied on short-term interventions and culturally specific samples (Japan and Indonesia), limiting generalizability. Longer longitudinal studies are needed. Contribution: This research provides the first cross-cultural neuroscientific evidence that disconnection policies may undermine implicit forms of relational interdependence, underscoring the need for culturally sensitive guidelines.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: This study aims to examine how sacred values modulate neural representations in interdependent decision-making by comparing brain activation patterns between ultra-Orthodox (with high communal interdependence) and secular Israeli dyads. Research Methodology: An experimental study was conducted with 60 dyads using a modified prisoner’s dilemma paradigm. Decision-making processes were recorded using hyperscanning fMRI. The analyses focused on (1) brain-to-brain synchronization in the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) and (2) sacred value encoding in the ventral striatum. Results: Findings revealed that Ultra-Orthodox dyads exhibited stronger dmPFC coupling (t = 3.11, p = 0.002), indicating greater cognitive coordination. However, they also showed weaker striatal reward activation when sacrificing for a partner compared to secular couples. This finding suggests a distinct neural trade-off pattern in groups with high interdependence. Conclusions: Sacred-value-based interdependence uniquely shapes brain-to-brain dynamics, implying that culture and religious values modulate the neural representation of cooperation. Limitations: he study is limited to an Israeli sample with a specific religious context; therefore, generalization to other cultures requires further research. Contribution: This research advances the cultural neuroscience literature by showing that interdependence is not only social but also embedded in neural mechanisms. These findings are relevant for developing conflict resolution strategies in polarized societies.]]>

<![CDATA[Purpose: This study seeks to reconceptualize climate anxiety not as an individual pathology, as often framed in Western models, but as a form of collective interdependence that mobilizes adaptive action in vulnerable communities. By focusing on flood-prone villages in Bangladesh, the research highlights the role of anxiety as a socially embedded mechanism for resilience. Research Methodology: A 12-month longitudinal ethnography was conducted, complemented by dynamic social network modeling. The analysis integrated two components: (1) community transmission of climate anxiety using SIENA models, and (2) behavioral cascades of pro-environmental actions mapped through network thresholds. Results: Findings reveal that climate anxiety functions as an adaptive social glue. Villagers with the highest centrality of climate anxiety initiated 3.5 times more collective adaptation measures (p < 0.001). Moreover, threshold effects emerged, with network saturation at 60% producing non-linear acceleration of community-wide adaptive behavior. Conclusions: Rather than being medicalized as distress, climate anxiety in vulnerable contexts operates as a driver of interdependent resilience. It provides motivational energy that binds communities, channeling affect into coordinated action rather than individual pathology. Limitations: The study is limited to flood-prone Bangladeshi villages, which constrains the generalizability of findings to other environmental and cultural settings. The reliance on ethnographic immersion also introduces interpretive subjectivity. Contribution: The research advances climate psychology by reframing collective anxiety as a catalyst for resilience, challenging Eurocentric individualist models, and offering a novel integration of ethnography with network-based simulation in the Global South.]]>
