This study explored the narratives of young adults who are victims of cheating in romantic relationships. The narratives of ten participants aged 18 to 25 years were examined through in-depth qualitative interviews. It described their experiences, how they cope, and how they form their subsequent relationships. The data were analyzed through thematic analysis, which revealed that participants discovered their partner's infidelity through their social media, friends, or self-discovery. Regardless of gender, this led to traumatic physical, social, and emotional effects. Coping mechanisms varied from unhealthy behaviors, such as engaging in vice and self-harm, to positive ones, such as writing literature. This study is important for Filipino Psychology because it examines the intricacies of healing and relational growth among young adults grappling with infidelity. Understanding cultural contexts provides input for ways of helping focused on resilience and well-being.

Divorce transforms an individual into a single parent, prompting them to place their children in Islamic boarding schools for enhanced supervision. The repercussions of divorce on adolescents are substantial, particularly for those in boarding schools. These adolescents often grapple with heightened academic stress, attributable to rigorous learning demands and a lack of parental support, resulting in diminished psychological well-being. This study endeavors to implement resilience training as a pilot intervention, aiming to alleviate academic stress and enhance the psychological well-being of adolescents in boarding schools with divorced parents. The research design adopts a non-randomized pretest-posttest control group format, encompassing 30 adolescents. The evaluation tools employed include the ESSSA educational stress scale for adolescents (16 items), a psychological well-being assessment (42 items), and a resilience measurement (19 items). Utilizing independent t-tests and paired t-tests, the findings indicate a noteworthy reduction in academic stress (p=.000) and a concurrent improvement in psychological well-being (p=.000).

Students who are victims of cyberbullying have problems with low self-esteem, feeling sad, angry, experiencing anxiety disorders, feeling lonely, lacking social adjustment and withdrawing from social interactions. This is because the victim receives bad messages and treatment from other people continuously which sometimes makes him feel useless. As a result, students become lazy about going to school and their academic achievement becomes lower. This research aims to analyze the condition of self-esteem of cyberbullying victims and produce a product in the form of a digital module using the SFBC approach to increase the self-esteem of cyberbullying victims which is valid and can be used by guidance and counseling teachers and counselors. This research is development research using a 4-D model. This research involved 35 vocational school students who were victims of cyberbullying for needs analysis. The research trial subjects consisted of 3 experts to test the suitability of the content and appearance of the digital module, 3 guidance counselors/counselors to test the usability. Research data were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis and non-parametric analysis. The research results show that students who are victims of cyberbullying have very low self-esteem. The digital module with the SFBC approach to increase the self-esteem of cyberbullying victims is considered very feasible. The practicality test results of the digital module are in the very good category.

Mass psychogenic illness is a phenomenon that occurs every year in Indonesia, mainly in schools and factories. In the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, this phenomenon is classified as dissociative disorders. However, the Indonesian diagnostic manual of mental disorders (the PPDGJ) classified the phenomenon as a conversion disorder. The confounding diagnosis will likely result in less effective and less humane interventions. This study aims to determine the symptoms experienced by individuals experiencing mass psychogenic illness, therefore contributing to the current literature regarding the proper diagnostic of the spirit possession. Samples (N=55) were assessed using the Dissociative Disorder Interview Schedule based on DSM-5. The Beck Depression Inventory and Wong-Baker Face Rating Scale are also used to supplement the data. Findings indicate that the subjects fit the diagnostic criterion of several disorders, namely somatization (experienced by 98.18% of individuals), major depression (49%), trance (69%), childhood physical abuse (35%), and borderline personality disorder (47.2%). However, only 14.54% of subjects fulfilled the diagnostic criterion of dissociative amnesia, 7.27% for diagnostic fugue, 3.63% for depersonalization/derealization, 5% for dissociative identity disorder, 11% for other specified and unspecified dissociative disorder. These findings showed that mass psychogenic illness is likely the manifestation of distinct and separate mental disorders, notably that of somatization disorder, trance, borderline personality disorder, and major depressive disorder, and exclusively those of dissociative disorders.

The developmental crisis in early adulthood, often referred to as the Quarter-Life Crisis, has garnered significant attention in recent years. Although widely discussed in mass media and popular writings, there is a lack of a well-established psychological scale to measure this crisis in Indonesia. This study aims to examine the psychometric properties of the Indonesian adaptation of the Developmental Crisis Questionnaire (DCQ-12) developed by Petrov et al. (2022) for assessing early adulthood developmental crises. The DCQ-12 instrument consists of twelve statements divided into three factors: Disconnection and Distress, Lack of Clarity and Control, and Transition and Turning Point. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) are used in the test. This research involves 300 Indonesian early adult participants (mean age = 31.81 years, SD = 6.72, 90% female) for EFA testing and 248 participants (mean age = 25.2 years, SD = 5.32, 78.2% female) for CFA testing. The results indicate that the three-factor structure of the ten items of the Indonesian version of the DCQ has psychometric properties classified as "acceptable fit," making it suitable for research on developmental crises in early adult individuals. Future research should explore the psychometric properties of this instrument in other population groups, such as middle-aged and older adults, and consider implications for interventions or support programs

Separation from parents to study at a boarding school creates a sense of loss, alienation, loneliness, and a weakening of communication with parents among the students (santri). The issues faced by these students are related to attachment patterns, specifically secure attachment. Secure attachment significantly influences the social and emotional development of students, reduces behavioral problems, and alleviates depression. Therefore, this research aims to examine the efficacy of two psychoeducational interventions utilizing films, one with a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) approach and one without a CBT approach, to enhance secure attachment among students towards their parents. This study employs a randomized controlled trial pre-post test design, with a research population of 20 students from Madrasah Tsanawiyah Candung. The participants are randomly divided into two different intervention groups, each consisting of 10 subjects. Data analysis involves the Wilcoxon signed ranks test and Mann-Whitney test. The results indicate a significant improvement in secure attachment among students in both the psychoeducational film intervention with CBT and the psychoeducational film intervention without CBT. However, further analysis reveals that the psychoeducational film intervention with CBT produces a higher increase in self-esteem compared to the intervention without CBT.
