Abstract

This research aims to formulate, implement, and evaluate the effectiveness of the integrated Art Therapy service model within the framework of Islamic Counseling to reduce students' academic anxiety at SMA Plus Al-Aqsha. The phenomenon of academic anxiety is identified not only as a clinical disorder, but as a form of spiritual shak (al-qalaq al-ruhi) which is rooted in the deficit of tawakal and the loss of inner peace (sakinah). Using a qualitative approach of a descriptive case study type, this study involves students who have high levels of anxiety and resistance to conventional verbal communication. Data was collected through participant observation, artwork documentation, and post-creation reflection in-depth interviews, which were then analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña interactive model. The research results show that operational procedures that include the stage of initiation (purification of intention), externalization (expressive painting), and transformation (internalization of the values of patience, gratitude, and husnuzan) are effective in reducing anxiety scores significantly. Painting media serves as a non-verbal cathartic instrument that is able to break down the psychological resistance of adolescents, while the integration of tawhid values provides a more permanent transcendental resolution than a secular approach. The synergy between emotional regulation through artistic expression and faith strengthening is proven to be able to transform the narrative of anxiety into stable spiritual calmness. This study concludes that the Art Therapy service based on Islamic Counseling is an innovative and contextual solution for counseling guidance practitioners in improving the mental health and quality of life of students in the Islamic education environment.

Abstract

Academic procrastination is a behavior of delaying the completion of tasks that can have a negative impact on students' academic achievements. This behavior can be caused by students' mindsets, habits, and personality traits (Ferrari, 1995). One of the approaches to overcome this problem is the self-management technique, which is the individual's ability to manage their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors independently to achieve certain goals. This technique can be applied through group counseling services, which is the process of providing assistance in a small group atmosphere that is open and mutually supportive, with the aim of encouraging behavior change in a more positive direction. This research aims to: (1) identify the profile of academic procrastination of class VIII students at SMPN 3 Cilimus; (2) design group counseling services with self-management techniques that suit the needs of students; and (3) find out the effectiveness of the service in reducing academic procrastination. The research uses a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. The population in this study is all class VIII students at SMPN 3 Cilimus as many as 101 students. The sample was selected from the class with the highest academic procrastination score. This research refers to Prayitno (1995) which states that the ideal number of group counseling members ranges from 6 to 10 people, in order to maintain the effectiveness of group dynamics and active participant involvement. The results of the Independent Samples T-test showed a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000 (< 0.05), which indicated a significant difference between the experimental and control groups after the intervention. N-gain test results show effectiveness in the medium category. Thus, group counseling services with self-management techniques are quite effective in reducing the academic procrastination of class VIII students at SMPN 3 Cilimus.

Abstract

Emotional maturity is an important developmental competence that supports adolescents in regulating emotions, building healthy interpersonal relationships, and responding adaptively to developmental demands. This study aimed to examine the association between gender and emotional maturity categories among students at SMP Negeri 1 Pakis and to identify its implications for gender-responsive Guidance and Counseling services. A quantitative cross-sectional comparative design was employed involving 134 students, consisting of 67 male and 67 female students aged 12–15 years. Data were collected using a 25-item emotional maturity scale adapted from Hilyana (2020), covering self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. The instrument demonstrated excellent internal consistency, with McDonald’s ω = .933. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Fisher–Freeman–Halton exact test, while Cramér’s V was used to estimate the effect size. The results showed that 91.0% of students were classified in the moderate emotional maturity category, 5.2% in the low category, and 3.7% in the high category. Although female students showed a higher proportion in the high category than male students, no statistically significant association was found between gender and emotional maturity category, p = .350, with a small effect size, Cramér’s V = .124. These findings indicate that gender should not be used as the sole basis for evaluating students’ emotional development. Guidance and Counseling services should therefore be universal, inclusive, and gender-responsive, while remaining grounded in students’ actual developmental needs rather than gender stereotypes.

Abstract

Technological advances, automation, and artificial intelligence have made the future of work increasingly dynamic and unpredictable, requiring students to develop career readiness beyond choosing a major, including the ability to envision and direct themselves toward a desired future work self. This urgency is salient in Indonesia given the persistently high unemployment rate among senior secondary and vocational graduates, while research on Future Work Self-Salience (FWSS), a salient representation of oneself in future work, has mostly focused on university students and employees rather than senior high school students, who are at a critical stage of career identity formation. This study aimed to describe the level of FWSS among eleventh-grade students in Makassar City, analyze gender differences, and outline its practical application for adaptive, contextual career guidance and counseling services. A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted with 160 students (80 male, 80 female) from 11 senior high schools, measured using the FWSS Scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Mann-Whitney U test. Results showed that students FWSS generally fell into the moderate category (73.75%; M = 14.09; range 5-20), with work-identity clarity developing more strongly than job-type clarity, and a significant gender difference was found (U = 4024; p = .005; r_rb = .258), with male students scoring higher. The study concludes that senior high school students in Makassar City have begun forming a future work orientation but still require systematic, gender-sensitive support, positioning the FWSS profile as an empirical basis for developing needs-based, digitally oriented career guidance and counseling services.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the construct validity and reliability of the Verbal Aggression Scale (VAS) among seventh-grade junior high school students using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Accurate measurement of verbal aggression is essential for identifying students’ behavioral tendencies and supporting evidence-based guidance and counseling interventions. This study employed a quantitative psychometric design involving 420 seventh-grade junior high school students. The instrument was an Indonesian adaptation of the Verbal Aggression Scale developed through a systematic cross-cultural adaptation process, including forward translation, back translation, expert judgment, and pilot testing to ensure linguistic and cultural appropriateness. The final instrument consisted of 20 items rated on a five-point Likert scale. Prior to factor extraction, data suitability was confirmed using the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure and Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity. The EFA results indicated that all items loaded on one dominant factor, suggesting that verbal aggression among junior high school students is primarily represented as a unidimensional construct. The CFA demonstrated an acceptable model fit, with RMSEA = 0.065, CMIN/DF = 1.931, CFI = 0.872, and TLI = 0.852. Reliability analysis showed satisfactory internal consistency, with both McDonald’s ω and Cronbach’s α exceeding 0.70. These findings provide empirical evidence that the Indonesian version of the Verbal Aggression Scale possesses adequate construct validity and reliability for assessing verbal aggression among junior high school students and supports its use as a valid assessment instrument for guidance and counseling services, educational research, and school-based intervention programs in Indonesia.

Abstract

Career anxiety is commonly experienced by high school students as they face increasing demands for educational and career planning. However, evidence regarding gender differences in career anxiety at the senior high school level, particularly in Indonesia, remains limited. This study aimed to examine the level of career anxiety among senior high school (or equivalent) students in East Java and determine whether significant differences exist based on gender. A quantitative comparative design was employed involving 128 students (36 males and 92 females) selected through cluster sampling from several senior high schools in East Java. Data were collected using a career anxiety scale with strong psychometric properties (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.927). The data were analyzed using normality and homogeneity tests followed by an Independent Samples t-test. The findings indicated that students generally experienced a moderate level of career anxiety. Female students obtained a slightly higher mean score (M = 79.95) than male students (M = 76.72); however, the difference was not statistically significant (t = -1.137, df = 126, p = .258). These findings suggest that gender is not a significant predictor of career anxiety among high school students. Instead, career anxiety may be more strongly influenced by individual factors, such as self-confidence and career readiness, as well as contextual support. Therefore, career guidance and counseling services should focus on strengthening career readiness, self-confidence, and career decision-making skills while providing equal support for all students regardless of gender.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the need for developing a vocational identity crisis instrument for university students, as a first step to address the lack of contextually relevant career crisis assessment tools in Indonesia. This descriptive quantitative study involved 30 fourth- and sixth-semester students from the Catholic Religious Education program at Atma Reksa Pastoral College in Ende, selected using a purposive sampling technique. The initial instrument was developed based on five aspects: career confusion, self-doubt, lack of direction in life, difficulty in decision-making, and emotional response, consisting of 30 statements with a four-point Likert scale. Content validity was evaluated by three experts, resulting in Aiken's V coefficients ranging from 0.73 to 0.92. Descriptive statistics showed that all dimensions were in the moderate category, with mean scores ranging from 2.69 to 2.87. The lack of direction in life dimension was the most prominent (M=2.87; SD=0.39), followed by the emotional response dimension (M=2.85; SD=0.44). These findings reveal that university students experience psychosocial vulnerability, highlighting the urgent need for preventive career planning support. Implicitly, the 30 developed statements effectively reflect the actual conditions of students and provide a strong empirical foundation for further validity and reliability testing in scale development. Future research should expand the sample size and conduct Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA).

Abstract

Guidance and counseling services in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) face challenges in responding to the complexity of students' psychological problems because religious approaches and applied psychology are generally still being developed in a partial manner so that there is no conceptual model that integrates the two systematically. This study aims to formulate an integrative model of pesantren guidance and counseling services based on religious approaches and applied psychology through conceptual analysis. The research uses a literature study method with an integrative conceptual analysis approach to 16 research articles published in the 2020–2025 period and systematically selected based on the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The results of the research produced an integrative model that combines Islamic philosophical foundations, evidence-based psychological principles, service components, implementing actors, pesantren cultural context, change mechanisms, and service outputs in one complete conceptual framework. This model places religious values as a philosophical foundation, while applied psychology serves as a scientific foundation in assessment, intervention, and service evaluation so as to support the spiritual, psychological, social, academic, and character development of students holistically. Thus, the resulting model makes a theoretical contribution to the scientific development of Islamic guidance and counseling as well as a conceptual reference for the development of pesantren guidance and counseling services that are professional, contextual, scientifically tested, and still rooted in Islamic values.
