Abstract

Background: Higher education plays a crucial role in improving the quality of human resources. However, not all students have equal access to resources, particularly in terms of educational financing. Scholarships serve as one solution to expand access, yet their impact on students' career development has not been widely examined. Aim: This study analyzes the relationship between scholarship status and students' career development. Method: The method employed is a quantitative, comparative design that compares scholarship recipients and non-recipients across career development categories. Results and Discussions: The results indicate that scholarship recipients tend to demonstrate better career development, with the majority falling into the "High" category. In contrast, students who do not receive scholarships are predominantly classified in the "Moderate" category. The discussion highlights that scholarships have a positive impact on career development by reducing financial burdens, thereby enabling students to focus more on competency development. Conclusion: Scholarship status has a significant influence on students' career development, and it is recommended that higher education institutions enhance scholarship programs integrated with career development initiatives.

Abstract

Background: Bullying behavior in schools remains a serious issue that negatively affects students' psychological well-being, social relationships, and academic achievement. School guidance and counseling services are considered strategic interventions for preventing and reducing bullying by fostering empathy, emotional regulation, and prosocial skills. Aim: This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review of counseling strategies used to reduce bullying behavior in school settings. Method: A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The reviewed articles were obtained from Sinta-indexed journals, Scopus, and Google Scholar, and published between 2019 and 2024. A total of 20 empirical studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed thematically. Result and Discussions: The findings indicate that cognitive-behavioral counseling, empathy-based group counseling, and integrative school-wide counseling programs are effective in reducing aggressive behavior and enhancing students' social-emotional competencies. Furthermore, the effectiveness of counseling interventions is strongly influenced by counselor competence, institutional support, and program sustainability. Conclusions: These findings provide evidence-based recommendations for school counselors and educational institutions to design comprehensive, sustainable bullying prevention programs.

Abstract

Background: Mental readiness is a crucial aspect that determines students’ success in facing the transition from the academic world to the industrial workforce. Differences in social and economic backgrounds, including scholarship status, have the potential to influence students’ mental readiness in responding to the demands of the world of work. Aim: This study aims to analyze the level of students’ mental readiness in facing the industrial world based on scholarship status. Method: The research employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive-comparative design. The research subjects consisted of active university students grouped into scholarship recipients and non-scholarship recipients. Data were collected using a mental readiness questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of frequencies and percentages. Result and Discussions: The results show that the majority of students fall into the high mental readiness category; however, non-scholarship students demonstrate a higher proportion of high mental readiness compared to scholarship recipients. Conversely, scholarship recipients show a relatively higher proportion of low mental readiness. These findings indicate differences in mental readiness based on scholarship status. Conclusion: The study concludes that scholarship status is associated with variations in students’ mental readiness to face the industrial world. Therefore, strengthening career guidance and counseling services is recommended to enhance students’ mental readiness, particularly for scholarship recipients.

Abstract

Background: The transformation of modern industry requires students to be mentally prepared for the workforce; therefore, educational institutions must ensure that character development and psychological resilience are integral components of the learning process. Aim: This study aims to analyze the level of students' mental readiness in facing the industrial world, compare differences in readiness based on regional background, and examine the contribution of character education to the reinforcement of work Readiness. Method: The research employed a descriptive-comparative quantitative approach with a sample of students from urban and rural backgrounds. The measurement instrument used a mental readiness scale encompassing dimensions of self-confidence, resilience, emotional regulation, and adaptability. Results and Discussion: The results indicate that the majority of students fall into the high mental readiness category, with a higher proportion of urban students than rural students. These findings are consistent with the literature, which suggests that differences in access to education, exposure to technology, and social experiences influence individuals' psychological readiness. Conclusions: The study concludes that character education plays a significant role in shaping mental readiness and can be integrated into higher education, industrial guidance, and counseling programs. This research recommends developing character-based counseling interventions and industry practice experiences to strengthen students' readiness to enter the professional world.

Abstract

Background: The workforce's cultural diversity is a social reality increasingly prominent in the industrial world and has direct implications for the need for guidance and counseling services. Aim: This study analyzes the characteristics of the workforce's cultural background and their implications for the development of adaptive, multicultural industrial guidance and counseling services. Method: The research uses a descriptive, quantitative approach with labor subjects from various ethnic backgrounds. Data were collected through demographic questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics to illustrate the distribution of respondents' cultural characteristics. Results and Discussion: The results showed a dominance of local culture alongside the diversity of minority cultural groups, which affected work values, career orientation, and the need for counseling services. The discussion revealed that industry guidance and counseling need to integrate local cultural values while implementing a multicultural approach to make services more inclusive and contextual. The study's conclusions confirm that the effectiveness of industry guidance and counseling is largely determined by counselors' cultural sensitivity and multicultural competence. Conclusion: This study recommends developing a guidance and industry counseling model grounded in local context and cultural diversity, and conducting follow-up research with a more comprehensive design.

Abstract

Background: The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, particularly large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT and other AIs, has fundamentally reshaped the landscape of modern academic research, raising both opportunities and critical challenges for higher education institutions worldwide. Aim: This study systematically maps the contexts in which AI has been applied in modern academic research during 2015–2025 and examines how AI has influenced the process and outputs of educational research over the past decade. Method: A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) design was employed, guided by the PRISMA protocol and PICOC framework. A total of 5,106 articles were identified during the initial ScienceDirect database search. Following a rigorous multi-stage screening process based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, 19 articles were selected for final analysis. Results and Discussion: The findings reveal that AI has been applied across a broad and continuously expanding range of academic contexts, including automated writing assessment, citation prediction, AI-generated instructional content, academic integrity evaluation, and AI literacy development in academic libraries, with ChatGPT and similar LLMs serving as the primary catalysts of this expansion from 2022 onward. The influence of AI on educational research processes and outputs is simultaneously accelerative and disruptive: while AI demonstrably enhances efficiency, consistency, and productivity, it also poses serious threats to assessment integrity, authorship norms, and equity of access, particularly for international students and institutions from the Global South. Conclusion: AI is not merely a technical tool but a transformative force that demands systemic, ethical, and pedagogical responses across the entire academic ecosystem, including assessment redesign, integrated AI literacy curricula, and the development of coherent global ethical governance frameworks for AI use in academic research.

Abstract

Background: Many junior high school students exhibit low assertiveness, particularly in expressing opinions, resisting negative peer pressure, and maintaining interpersonal boundaries, which may hinder their socio-emotional development. Aim: This study examined the urgency and effectiveness of structured peer counseling as an intervention to improve assertive behavior among junior high school students. Method: The research employed a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control-group design involving 62 students, divided into an experimental and a control group. The intervention consisted of structured peer counseling sessions emphasizing active listening, empathy, modeling, and role-playing of assertive communication. Assertive behavior was measured using a four-point Likert scale instrument administered before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test to determine differences between pretest and posttest scores. Results and Discussion: The findings revealed a statistically significant improvement in the experimental group (Z = -4.643, p < 0.001) with a large effect size (r = 0.60), indicating meaningful behavioral change following peer counseling. In contrast, the control group did not show a significant improvement (Z = -1.924, p = 0.054). These results suggest that structured peer counseling provides an effective developmental context for practicing assertive communication skills through peer interaction and social modeling. Conclusion: The study confirms the urgent need for assertive behavior intervention in junior high schools and demonstrates that structured peer counseling is an effective approach to enhancing students' assertiveness, providing empirical support for its integration into school guidance and counseling programs.

Abstract

Background: The increasing use of social media among adolescents raises concerns about its impact on learning concentration. Students widely use TikTok because it offers engaging, easily accessible short videos. Aim: This study analyzes the relationship between TikTok use and learning concentration among early adolescents. Method: The study used a quantitative, correlational, cross-sectional design. The study population comprised N = 193 eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Kotagajah, with a sample of N = 138 selected via cluster sampling. Data collection was conducted using the Social Media Engagement Scale for Adolescents (SMES-A) with 11 items and a learning concentration scale with 28 items. Data analysis used product-moment correlation and simple linear regression. Results and Discussion: The results showed a correlation coefficient of -0.030 with a p-value of 0.725 (p > 0.05), indicating no significant relationship between the intensity of TikTok use and students' learning concentration. The regression results also showed that social media use accounted for only 0.1% of the variation in learning concentration. Conclusion: This finding indicates that social media use is not the main factor influencing students' learning concentration, as it is also influenced by other factors, such as learning motivation, interest in the subject, and the learning environment.
