Abstract

This study explores how Christian church leaders construct and enact an eternal perspective within organizational leadership practices. Using a Heideggerian phenomenological design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with five church leaders who had served in leadership roles for at least five years. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Four major themes were generated: integrity as the integration of faith and organizational governance, servant leadership as resistance to power-centered leadership, spiritual accountability and stewardship as moral safeguards, and eternal perspective as resistance to greed and organizational deviance. The findings show that eternal perspective functions not merely as a theological belief but as a practical moral-spiritual framework that shapes ethical decision-making, transparent governance, long-term vision, and resistance to misuse of authority and resources. This study contributes to spiritual and servant leadership literature by positioning eternal perspective as a moral-regulatory mechanism that strengthens integrity, stewardship, and ethical accountability in faith-based organizations.

Abstract

Adolescent character development is increasingly important in the context of rapid technological and social change. However, psychometrically validated instruments for assessing adolescent character in Indonesia remain limited. This study aimed to adapt and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Indonesian version of the Character Scale, focusing on internal consistency, item discrimination, and construct validity. A total of 834 adolescents aged 11–19 years participated in the study. Data were collected using the adapted Character Scale and analyzed through item analysis, reliability testing, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The results showed very high internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = .986), although this value may also indicate potential item redundancy. All items demonstrated acceptable item–rest correlations above .40. CFA supported the proposed eight-factor structure, with acceptable model fit indices (RMSEA = .062, CFI = .954, TLI = .949, NFI = .941), and all factor loadings were statistically significant. These findings provide initial evidence that the Indonesian version of the Character Scale is a psychometrically sound instrument for assessing adolescent character in research and educational contexts.

Abstract

Breast cancer and mastectomy not only cause physical changes but also impact women's psychological well-being, body image, sexual relationships, and marital quality. This literature review aims to analyze the relationship between marital adjustment and husband support in post-mastectomy breast cancer survivors. Article searches were conducted through PubMed, ScienceDirect, ResearchGate, and Google Scholar between 2021 and 2025 using the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, and eligible studies were assessed using the JBI. A total of 14 articles met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed descriptively thematically. The synthesis results indicate that husband support plays a significant role in improving psychological well-being, reducing anxiety and depression, increasing body image acceptance, and strengthening marital harmony. In addition, open communication, partner coping, family support, resilience, and self-esteem also influence successful marital adjustment. A family-centered care approach and couple-based interventions are needed to improve the quality of life in post-mastectomy breast cancer survivors.

Abstract

Science learning in early childhood education is essential for developing curiosity, observation, and early reasoning skills. However, science instruction in many kindergarten settings still relies on conventional media that do not adequately address children’s diverse learning needs. This study aimed to develop differentiated learning videos on the topic of plants to improve the science skills of early childhood among private kindergarten students in Batam City. Using a research and development approach, the study followed the ADDIE model: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Participants were children aged 5–6 years involved in small- and medium-group trials. Data were collected through expert validation sheets, teacher practicality questionnaires, and observations of children’s science skills. The results showed that the video was highly valid, practical, and effective, with validation scores of 86% and 98%, a practicality score of 95%, and effectiveness scores ranging from 87% to 89%. The findings suggest that differentiated plant-learning videos can effectively enhance young children’s science skills.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health burden, and treatment success is strongly influenced by sustained adherence supported by family caregivers. This study developed a family-based tuberculosis education module (“Empowering Families to Learn More About Tuberculosis”), assessed its content validity through expert judgment, and examined feasibility through a limited field trial. A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was applied among family members accompanying TB patients. Seven experts (TB, health promotion media, and language) evaluated module feasibility using Aiken’s V, yielding an average value of 0.80. Knowledge scores significantly increased after module use (mean 12.87 to 15.32; median 15 to 16), with Wilcoxon signed-rank test indicating a significant improvement (p<0.001). The module is valid, acceptable, and practical for implementation in primary and community care settings to strengthen family support in TB care.

Abstract

Academic procrastination is a common self-regulatory problem among university students that may impede the timely and effective completion of academic tasks. This study examined the association between academic grit and academic procrastination among university students in Indonesia, hypothesizing that higher academic grit would be associated with lower academic procrastination. A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted among 386 university students recruited through convenience sampling (305 women and 81 men; age range = 17–24 years, M = 19.37, SD = 1.39). Participants completed the Indonesian versions of the 10-item Academic Grit Scale (AGS) and the five-item Academic Procrastination Scale–Short Form (APS-S) through an online questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling were performed using robust maximum likelihood estimation (MLR). The structural model demonstrated acceptable fit, χ²(89) = 215.132, p < .001, RMSEA = .061, 90% CI [.050, .071], CFI = .923, TLI = .909, and SRMR = .047. Academic grit was significantly and inversely associated with academic procrastination, β = −.319, SE = .066, z = −4.800, p < .001, 95% CI [−.449, −.189]. The model explained 10.2% of the variance in academic procrastination (R² = .102), indicating a modest association between the two constructs. These findings suggest that academic grit may represent a relevant personal resource associated with lower levels of academic procrastination. Nevertheless, because the variables were assessed concurrently using self-report measures, temporal ordering and causal direction cannot be established. Longitudinal and multi-method research is needed to clarify the direction and robustness of this association.

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is preceded by a modifiable period of prediabetes, creating opportunities for scalable prevention through digital health interventions (DHIs). This scoping review mapped intervention types, study characteristics, outcomes, methodological limitations, and research gaps in DHIs for preventing T2DM among at-risk adults. Following Arksey and O’Malley’s framework, Joanna Briggs Institute guidance, and PRISMA-ScR, 52 records were identified through structured searches and citation tracking. After removing 16 duplicates, 36 records were screened using Population–Concept–Context criteria, yielding 13 eligible studies or trial protocols. The interventions comprised mobile application-based diabetes prevention programs, SMS/text messaging, telehealth or telecoaching, wearables and glucose monitoring, artificial intelligence-enabled coaching, and multicomponent hybrid platforms. Commonly assessed outcomes included weight, body mass index, HbA1c, fasting glucose, incident T2DM, behavioral change, and program engagement. Overall, DHIs showed short- to medium-term benefits for weight reduction and glycemic risk markers, while several landmark trials reported reductions in T2DM incidence. However, the evidence was constrained by short follow-up periods, small and homogeneous samples, high attrition, self-reported outcomes, and limited economic evaluation. No eligible Indonesian prevention study was identified. Future research should prioritize long-term, implementation-informed comparative effectiveness trials in underrepresented Southeast Asian populations, particularly Indonesia, while evaluating sustainability, scalability, equity, and cost-effectiveness.

Abstract

Conduct disorder symptoms are a major behavioural and public health concern during adolescence, often associated with aggression, rule-breaking behaviours, and poor psychosocial outcomes. This study examined the contribution of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and selected sociodemographic factors to conduct disorder symptoms among in-school adolescents in Lagos State, Nigeria. A cross-sectional correlational design was employed with 1,712 adolescents aged 12–19 years recruited from public and private secondary schools across four educational districts. Participants completed the Redeemer's University Adverse Childhood Experiences Scale (RUACES) and the Conduct and Oppositional Defiant Disorder Scales (CODDS). Data were analysed using multiple linear regression and independent-samples t-tests. ACEs significantly predicted conduct disorder symptoms. Sex, school type, age, family type, and family size also showed significant associations. Male adolescents reported higher conduct disorder symptoms than females, whereas private-school students scored higher than public-school students. These findings highlight the importance of trauma-informed prevention, early behavioural screening, and school-based mental health interventions to reduce conduct disorder symptoms among adolescents.

Abstract

This study aimed to translate, culturally adapt, and evaluate the preliminary psychometric properties of the Indonesian version of the Exercise Motivations Inventory-2 (EMI-2). The adaptation process included forward translation, synthesis, backward translation, expert review, readability assessment, and psychometric testing involving 236 Indonesian adults. Expert ratings indicated excellent inter-rater agreement for conceptual equivalence (ICC = 0.93) and good agreement for linguistic equivalence (ICC = 0.86). The readability assessment also showed good agreement regarding item clarity and comprehensibility (ICC = 0.83). Reliability analysis indicated high internal consistency for the overall instrument (Cronbach’s α = 0.936; McDonald’s ω = 0.946). Confirmatory factor analysis provided partial support for the proposed factor structure. The RMSEA (0.059) and SRMR (0.074) indicated an acceptable approximation of model fit, whereas the CFI (0.875) and TLI (0.859) were below commonly recommended thresholds. These findings suggest that the Indonesian EMI-2 has strong internal consistency and satisfactory linguistic and conceptual equivalence. However, its factorial validity requires further examination in larger and more diverse samples before the instrument can be recommended for widespread use.

Abstract

Burnout is an increasingly prominent psychological concern among Generation Z employees in the service sector. However, the roles of personality characteristics and internal psychological resources in explaining burnout remain insufficiently understood, particularly within collectivistic cultural contexts. This study examined the associations of grandiose narcissism and vulnerable narcissism with burnout, while testing the mediating role of self-compassion. A quantitative correlational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 227 Generation Z employees working in the service sector. Data were analysed using a general linear modelling framework to estimate the direct and indirect relationships among the study variables. The results showed that vulnerable narcissism was the strongest positive predictor of burnout, both directly and indirectly through lower self-compassion. In contrast, grandiose narcissism demonstrated a comparatively weaker association with burnout. Self-compassion was negatively associated with burnout and significantly mediated the relationship between vulnerable narcissism and burnout; however, it did not mediate the relationship between grandiose narcissism and burnout. The proposed model demonstrated substantial explanatory power, accounting for 69% of the variance in burnout, with a very large effect size (R² = .69, f² = 2.23). These findings highlight the importance of internal psychological resources in understanding burnout and suggest that strengthening self-compassion may represent a relevant psychological strategy for reducing burnout vulnerability among Generation Z employees in the service sector.
