Abstract

Cases of online violence have become increasingly widespread since the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, during which individuals began to grow dependent on the digital world. The digital realm has become a fundamental aspect of human life, bringing with it new forms of online violence. Online violence such as threats, hate speech, harassment, and bullying has emerged as a new weapon to control, isolate, and even torment affected victims. However, only a small body of literature has explored the changing nature of online violence following COVID-19. This study aims to review the literature on patterns of online violence post-pandemic, focusing on the years 2023–2025, and to provide recommendations for future research. Bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer was selected to map the patterns of online violence studies published between 2023 and 2025, covering sources from both Scopus and Google Scholar. The findings show that since the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, patterns of online violence have become closely linked to gender, more specifically to violence against women and domestic violence.

Abstract

The very fast development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) in the last decade have changed the way of mental health practice internationally, including Indonesia. Although these technologies extend reach, deepen therapeutic engagement, and facilitate clinical analysis, they also present serious ethical challenges with respect to privacy, algorithmic bias, depersonalization, and disparity. This integrative review draws on literature from counseling, digital ethics, immersive technologies, and Indonesian philosophical studies to consider how Pancasila can serve as a culturally situated ethical guide for technology-mediated counseling. The results disclose four overarching themes: shifting role of counseling through intelligent and immersive technologies; nascent ethical issues; the salience of Pancasila’s principles to digital morality; and formation of a Pancasila-Based Digital Counseling Ethical Framework (P-DCEF). In this scheme, human dignity, relational integrity, social justice and transparent governance are placed at the heart of ethical digital counseling. It is the reviewer's opinion that embedding technological innovation in national philosophical principles would be imperative to ensuring digital counseling in Indonesia remains humane, just and culturally consistent, bringing a distinct ethical perspective to conversations around mental-health technologies worldwide.

Abstract

Bullying in schools remains a serious problem that negatively impacts students' academic and psychological development. A safe and violence-free learning environment is crucial to supporting the achievement of national education goals, thus requiring effective interventions to reduce bullying behavior. This study aims to test the effectiveness of group counseling services using psychoeducational techniques based on the teachings of KH. Ahmad Dahlan in reducing bullying behavior. The scope of the study focuses on the application of peaceful values in junior high schools as a prevention strategy and as a positive character development strategy for students. This study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group design. The subjects were 14 students from Muhammadiyah Bantul Junior High School identified as having high levels of bullying. They were divided into an experimental group that received psychoeducational intervention and a control group with no treatment. The results showed a significant decrease in the experimental group's bullying scores after participating in five sessions of peaceful psychoeducation, from an average pretest of 97.1 to 59.4 on the posttest. In contrast, the control group experienced no significant changes, thus proving the effectiveness of the intervention. This study concludes that psychoeducation based on the teachings of KH. Ahmad Dahlan is effective in suppressing bullying behavior while fostering empathy and social awareness in students. These findings provide practical contributions to school guidance and counseling services and provide recommendations for integrating local wisdom values into bullying prevention strategies.

Abstract

The importance of critical thinking in higher education has become increasingly prominent amid the rapid advancement of digital technology and artificial intelligence. This study aims to examine the effects of social interaction and digital literacy on students’ critical thinking skills, with self-efficacy serving as a mediating variable. Employing a quantitative approach with path analysis, data were collected from 650 university students during the 2024/2025 academic year and analyzed using SmartPLS. The results indicate that self-efficacy has a significant effect on critical thinking (β = 0.455, p < 0.001) and functions as a mediator linking digital literacy (β = 0.286, p < 0.001) and social interaction (β = 0.166, p = 0.001) to critical thinking ability. Furthermore, digital literacy exerts a significant indirect effect on critical thinking through the enhancement of self-efficacy (indirect effect = 0.234, p < 0.001). These findings underscore that strengthening digital literacy and social interaction within educational curricula, along with fostering students’ self-efficacy, can effectively enhance critical thinking skills, which are essential for addressing academic and professional challenges in the digital era.

Abstract

This study examines the efficacy of Rapid Counseling with Single-Session Music Therapy (RCSSMT) in enhancing emotion regulation in response to activating events. Many daily circumstances are uncontrollable, often leading individuals with negative thought patterns to experience distress and anxiety, known as activating events. Music therapy, as a holistic approach, acts as an emotion-focused coping strategy by calming physiological stress responses and preparing the individual for cognitive restructuring. This research employed a single-subject pre-test, post-test, and follow-up design, with the subject being SG, who had the lowest initial score on the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire. The scores showed a gradual but significant improvement: Pretest: 37 (Medium), Posttest: 44 (Medium), and Follow-Up (two months later): 67 (High). This peak score at follow-up suggests that music functions as an emotional bridge, successfully facilitating the Cognitive Reappraisal process over time, which is crucial for adaptive recovery and strengthening psychological resilience. The findings conclude that RCSMT is an effective intervention for improving an individual's emotional regulation abilities in the face of stressful activating events.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of psychological capital on academic burnout among Islamic boarding school students, with religious coping and academic engagement as mediating variables. A quantitative research method with survey design was employed. The population consisted of 102 students at the Madrasah Tsanawiyah level, and a sample of 80 students was determined using the Krejcie and Morgan formula. The sampling technique used was simple random sampling. Four validated research scales were adapted for data collection: the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory – Student Version (OLBI-S), Compound Psychological Capital Scale (PsyCap-12), The Brief RCOPE, and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale for Students (UWES-9S). Hypotheses were tested using Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results indicate that psychological capital, religious coping, and academic engagement significantly and directly affect academic burnout. Moreover, religious coping and academic engagement serve as significant mediators in the relationship between psychological capital and academic burnout. These findings provide valuable insights for administrators of Islamic boarding schools and similar educational institutions. Interventions aimed at developing psychological resilience, enhancing academic engagement, and strengthening spirituality are recommended as effective strategies to mitigate academic burnout.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the low level of emotional wellness among some junior high school students, characterized by difficulties in recognizing, understanding, and managing emotions adaptively, thereby impacting social behavior and learning processes at school. Previous studies have shown that emotion regulation-based interventions are effective in improving adolescents' emotional well-being. However, counseling interventions in schools that specifically target emotional regulation patterns to improve students' emotional wellness are still relatively limited in guidance and counseling services. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effectiveness of group counseling using the Mode Deactivation Counseling (MDC) model in improving the emotional wellness of junior high school students. This study uses a quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest experimental design. The research subjects consisted of five eighth-grade students from a junior high school in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, selected using purposive sampling based on the criterion of low emotional wellness. Data were collected using an emotional wellness scale that had been tested for content validity through expert judgment and reliability. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test to determine differences in scores before and after treatment. The results show a significant difference between pretest and posttest emotional wellness scores after participating in MDC group counseling (p = 0.043 < 0.05). These findings indicate that MDC group counseling is effective in improving emotional wellness among junior high school students.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of group guidance using psychodrama techniques in improving self-adjustment among students. The study employed a quantitative approach with an experimental research design, specifically a pretest–posttest control group design. The participants consisted of ten students, divided into an experimental group of five students and a control group of five students. The experimental group received group guidance with psychodrama techniques, while the control group received treatment as usual. The research participants were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected using a self-adjustment scale, which had been analyzed for validity and reliability using the Rasch model. The data were analyzed using an Independent Samples t-test. The results of the analysis using the independent sample t-test showed a significance value of 0,024 (<0,05). Based on the results of the data analysis, it can be concluded that group guidance with psychodrama techniques is effective in improving self-adjustment among senior high school students. Therefore, the findings of this study may serve as an alternative intervention for school counselors in enhancing students’ self-adjustment in the school setting.

Abstract

Sexual violence, both physically and psychologically, can be a traumatic stressor that triggers trauma in an individual's life. Trauma is a common condition that has a complex impact on an individual's life. This study aims to collect and analyze articles related to trauma care for psychological strengthening of adolescent survivors of sexual violence. The method used is a literature review. The author summarizes, makes a critical and in-depth analysis of previous literature. Based on the articles collected, it was found that sexual violence can leave a severe traumatic impact on victims. Victims may experience stress due to traumatic events, both during and after the event. Because of this condition, many victims of sexual violence are reluctant to report to the authorities because they feel unsafe, afraid of negative reactions, and embarrassed and intimidated by social stigma. They are worried that they will not be believed or even blamed, so they choose to keep their traumatic experiences without getting the support or justice they deserve. The role of media developers is to create applications that facilitate victims of sexual violence to report safely, anonymously, and easily. This application is designed to protect victims' privacy, reduce fear, and help them get support and justice without facing social stigma.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital mental health services has increased the use of cybercounseling, while simultaneously introducing challenges in interpreting nonverbal cues, particularly facial expressions, within technology-mediated interactions. This study aims to systematically examine the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in facial expression detection as a support feature in cybercounseling. A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted following PRISMA guidelines, drawing from multiple indexed academic databases. The included studies covered AI-based facial expression recognition, micro-expression analysis, depression detection, and relevant multimodal approaches. The findings indicate that deep learning–based models are capable of identifying facial patterns associated with emotional and psychological conditions, including depression, with high accuracy in controlled datasets. Micro-expression analysis further enables the detection of subtle and concealed affective signals that are difficult to observe through human perception alone. However, the results also demonstrate that facial expressions cannot be treated as direct representations of psychological states, as their interpretation is influenced by expression intensity, contextual factors, and individual variability. In addition, multimodal approaches integrating facial, vocal, and physiological signals provide more comprehensive and reliable insights compared to unimodal systems. These findings suggest that AI-based facial expression detection holds potential as a supportive tool in cybercounseling, particularly for enhancing affective observation and identifying subtle emotional cues. Nevertheless, its use should remain complementary to professional judgment rather than as a standalone diagnostic mechanism. Current limitations include the dominance of dataset-driven studies, limited application in real counseling contexts, and insufficient attention to ethical considerations.
