Cyberbullying is a form of harassment carried out through electronic devices, often involving social media platforms. This study aimed to determine the role of social media use and dark triad personality in predicting adolescents’ involvement in cyberbullying. The study involved 219 adolescents aged 12-21 who had engaged in cyberbullying within the past six months. Data were collected using three scales: the Social Media Use Integration Scale, Short Dark Triad, and Cyber-Aggression Scale. The results indicated that both intensity of social media use and dark triad personality traits simultaneously predicted cyberbullying behavior among adolescents, with psychopathy emerging as the most significant contributor to the observed behaviors. The study suggests that while social media use alone may not directly lead to cyberbullying, it serves as a facilitating platform for individuals with psychopathic tendencies. The study’s findings highlight the importance of parents, counselors, and the community working together to prevent cyberbullying behaviors among adolescents.

While extensive research has examined the relationship between gaming and aggression, few studies have focused on the factors that mediate the connection between trash-talking behavior and aggressive outcomes in multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games. This study addresses this gap by investigating the role of screen time as a mediator between trash-talking and aggressive behaviors in young players of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB). Unlike previous research that primarily explored direct links between gaming and aggression, this study introduces screen time as a novel variable that influences this relationship. The study sampled 390 gamers aged 10 to 24 years, all enrolled at Southern Luzon State University in Lucban, Quezon, Philippines. Key variables, including verbal aggression, hostility, and anger, were assessed using standardized questionnaires, along with measures of trash-talking attitudes and screen time. Using mediation analysis, the study identified screen time as a key factor that explains the relationship between trash-talking and aggression. The findings revealed that trash-talking indirectly contributes to aggressive behavior through prolonged gaming exposure. In other words, the negative effects of trash-talking on aggression are amplified by increased screen time. This discovery offers a fresh perspective by highlighting screen time as a critical channel through which trash-talking influences aggression. The results underscore the importance of addressing both toxic communication and excessive screen time to foster a healthier and more sustainable gaming environment. As mobile gaming continues to dominate youth leisure activities, these findings provide actionable insights for developing interventions that reduce aggression and encourage positive competition in esports

Bullying in schools has become a serious issue that affects the mental health of teenagers. Data shows that many victims of bullying in Indonesia experience various negative impacts, including low self esteem. Therefore, it is important to explore factors that support resilience, such as emotion regulation and school climate. Based on Bronfenbrenner's ecological theory, the interaction between individuals and their environment, particularly schools, can influence the development of resilience. This study aims to examine how emotional regulation and school climate contribute to resilience, with self-esteem as an important mediator. The research method used is quantitative with mediator analysis techniques. The respondents in this study numbered 642 individuals with characteristics aged 12-16 years and who had previously been victims of bullying. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. The research scales used are the Child-Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-R), Emotion Regulation Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents (ERQ-CA), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and School Climate Scale. The research results show that the cognitive reappraisal strategy does not have a direct impact on resilience but has an effect through self-esteem. Other results indicate that the school climate directly affects resilience and also has an effect through self-esteem. The use of adaptive emotion regulation strategies can enhance self-esteem, which in turn increases resilience. A positive school climate can also enhance self-esteem and resilience in facing various challenges.1

Career literacy is an important factor that supports individuals in setting career goals and making career decisions. To assess the level of individuals’ career literacy, a valid measurement that can describe the true literacy level is needed. However, so far there are no tools to assess career literacy levels among adolescents in Indonesia. The study aims to validate the behavioural indicators of a career literacy scale for Indonesian adolescents. The research involved five experts in career development and psychometry. The data collected through the questionnaire contains 50 behavioural indicators of the career literacy scale that was analyzed through V Aiken’s formula. The results revealed that all indicator have V coefficient ranging from 0.40 – 1.00. The 24 selected indicators consist of three indicators in each aspect of the concepts dimension and five indicators in each aspect of the skills dimension as the indicators of the Indonesian Career Literacy Scale. Therefore, the career literacy construct identified in a study in USA is also relevant for Indonesians and can be used in developing the Indonesian Career Literacy Scale.

Previous research has found that parental support can help adolescents determine their vocational identity. However, parental support may not directly contribute to vocational identity but instead first make adolescents have career decision-making self-efficacy. This study examined the effects of career decision-making self-efficacy as a mediator in the relation between parental career support and vocational identity. The participants included 400 senior high school students aged between 15-18 with both parents and the data was analyzed through the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results showed that career decision-making self-efficacy mediates between parental career support with career exploration and career commitment. These findings indicate that parental career support helps adolescents develop career decision-making self-efficacy so that adolescents can achieve an optimal vocational identity characterized by career exploration and commitment. This study found no significant effect on career reconsideration, possibly due to parental support and individual characteristics.

In the government sector, public services are part of the duties of the state apparatus to provide services to the community and loyalty to the state. The quality of government public services is a very important factor in public satisfaction. Employees who have a good work-life balance will provide quality services to the community. Work life balance in employees is influenced by job satisfaction including relationships with colleagues and leaders. Dissatisfaction felt by employees will lead to poor service quality. However, it is not yet known how work-life balance affects service quality. This study aims to examine the effect of work-life balance on employee service quality, through the mediation of job satisfaction. This explanatory quantitative research involved 262 employees in Langkat Regency. Data analysis using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) operated through the SmartPLS program. The results show that job satisfaction mediates the effect of work life balance on employee service quality. The results of this study contribute to the problem of low employee service quality which is influenced by work life balance and mediated by job satisfaction.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as obesity are on the rise in Indonesia. This increase is suspected to be because individuals are unable to maintain healthy food choices. It is hypothesized that personal factors, such as knowledge and attitudes towards food safety, can influence individuals in selecting healthy foods. This study is designed to investigate the influence of knowledge and attitudes towards food safety on healthy food choices among individuals. The research design used is a quasi-experimental study in a laboratory setting using a Fake Food Buffet. The targeted number of participants is 146 university students. This study shows that knowledge and attitudes towards food safety significantly influence healthy food choices. Additionally, knowledge of food safety partially influences healthy food choices. However, attitudes towards food safety do not influence healthy food choices. These findings are important considerations in designing interventions to increase public knowledge about food safety issues, which can reduce the incidence of non-communicable diseases in the future.

Burnout is commonly experienced by professionals in the "helping relationship" sector, including lecturers. One of the factors contributing to burnout is an individual's personality. This study aims to investigate how Dark Triad Personality traits (narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy) influence burnout among Indonesian lecturers. The methodology of this study was cross sectional. Dark triad personality was measured using 5 scales: NPI, CNI, LPSP-I, LPSP-II, and Mach-IV. The total number of participants in this study was 260 (Male=141, female=119). They were all lecturers in Indonesia with at least two years of work experience. This study shows that Machiavellianism is the most significant predictor of negative burnout. Narcissism, both agentic narcissism and communal narcissism, significantly predicted burnout negatively. Secondary psychopathy significantly predicts burnout negatively, whereas primary psychopathy does not predict burnout. Furthermore, demographic factors such as gender, age, length of service, and job position do not predict burnout among lecturers.
