Abstract

Academic resilience is a critical capacity that enables adolescents to cope with academic challenges and sustain performance under pressure. Grounded in Social Support Theory, this study examines the association between father involvement and academic resilience among late adolescents. A total of 385 participants aged 16–18 years (78.7% female) completed validated measures of father involvement and academic resilience. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression. The findings revealed a significant positive association between father involvement and academic resilience (R = .637, R² = .405, F = 261.0, p < .001), indicating that higher levels of father involvement are associated with greater academic resilience. These results underscore the role of fathers as a salient source of social support that may enhance adolescents’ capacity to cope with academic demands. This study extends prior literature by highlighting the specific contribution of father involvement, rather than general parental support, within a non-Western adolescent context. Practically, the findings emphasize the importance of promoting father engagement in adolescents’ academic lives through family- and school-based initiatives to foster adaptive academic functioning.

Abstract

This literature review examines the current state of research on the concept of letting go within the framework of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Islamic psychology. While previous studies have explored letting go as psychological acceptance and emotional regulation in Western psychotherapy, there remain gaps in understanding its integration with spiritual and transcendental dimensions, particularly within Muslim populations. The review synthesizes empirical and conceptual findings from peer-reviewed studies published between 2016 and 2026, retrieved from DOAJ, Scopus-indexed journals, and other relevant scientific databases. Major themes identified include ikhtiar as purposeful effort, tawakkal as reliance on God, sabr as patience in adversity, and ridha as spiritual acceptance of outcomes. The review highlights that these constructs correspond with psychological flexibility in ACT, while also extending it by incorporating religiosity-based meaning-making processes. Methodological trends indicate a predominance of qualitative and conceptual studies, with limited empirical and longitudinal research. Theoretically, the integration of Islamic psychology and ACT offers a culturally grounded expansion of acceptance-based models. Practically, the findings provide a foundation for developing culturally sensitive psychological interventions for Muslim populations. This review underscores the need for future research employing experimental designs, longitudinal approaches, and psychometric instrument development within the domain of Islamic psychological flexibility.

Abstract

This study examined the effects of work–life balance and perceived organizational support on quiet quitting among Generation Z employees in Karawang, Indonesia, from the perspective of person–organization fit theory. As Generation Z increasingly enters the workforce, organizations are experiencing shifts in workplace dynamics and employee expectations, particularly regarding work flexibility, meaningful work, and an inclusive organizational environment. Misalignment between employees' personal values and organizational culture may reduce motivation and emotional engagement, thereby increasing the likelihood of quiet quitting behaviors. A quantitative research design with a causal approach was employed. The participants consisted of 205 Generation Z employees (born between 1997 and 2007) working in Karawang, Indonesia. Data were collected using the Quiet Quitting Scale, the Work–Life Balance Scale, and the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support and were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings revealed that work–life balance and perceived organizational support jointly exerted a significant effect on quiet quitting, explaining 24% of the variance. Furthermore, both independent variables individually demonstrated significant negative associations with quiet quitting. These findings suggest that Generation Z employees who experience better work–life balance and stronger organizational support are less likely to engage in quiet quitting behaviors. The study contributes to the organizational behavior literature by extending the application of person–organization fit theory in explaining quiet quitting among Generation Z employees and offers practical implications for organizations seeking to enhance employee well-being and work engagement through supportive organizational practices.

Abstract

This study examined the influence of the Islamic Work Ethic (IWE) on Employee Loyalty among employees of KSPPS BMT Yaqawiyyu from a values-based organizational psychology perspective. Although previous research has consistently demonstrated positive associations between the Islamic Work Ethic and employees' work attitudes and behaviors, the specific contribution of each IWE dimension to employee loyalty remains insufficiently understood. A total of 82 employees of KSPPS BMT Yaqawiyyu participated in this study. Data were collected using the Islamic Work Ethic Scale and the Employee Loyalty Scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 25. The results revealed that the multidimensional Islamic Work Ethic had a significant simultaneous effect on Employee Loyalty (F = 33.1, p < .001), explaining 56% of the variance in employee loyalty (R² = .560). Partial regression analysis indicated that only the Work as the Manifestation of Aqidah dimension exerted a positive and statistically significant effect on Employee Loyalty (p < .001). In contrast, Work Based on Knowledge (p = .253) and Work by Emulating Divine Attributes and Following Allah's Guidance (p = .262) did not significantly predict Employee Loyalty. These findings support the multidimensional conceptualization of the Islamic Work Ethic and suggest that perceiving work as an act of worship, together with the alignment of employees' spiritual values with organizational values, constitutes a key psychological mechanism underlying employee loyalty in Sharia-based organizations.

Abstract

This study examined the relationship between digital literacy and critical thinking skills among vocational high school students. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was employed. The participants were 168 Grade 10 students from SMK Negeri 1 Pundong, with a mean age of 16 years (SD = 0.48), comprising 145 male students (86.3%) and 23 female students (13.7%). Data were collected using digital literacy and critical thinking skills scales with four-point Likert response formats. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and simple linear regression. The results showed a strong and significant positive relationship between digital literacy and critical thinking skills, r(166) = .761, p < .001. The regression model yielded an R² of .578, indicating that digital literacy accounted for 57.8% of the variance in critical thinking skills, while the remaining 42.2% was associated with other factors not included in the model. These findings indicate that students with higher levels of digital literacy tend to demonstrate stronger critical thinking skills. Theoretically, the findings reinforce the view that digital literacy extends beyond technical proficiency in using digital technologies and involves higher-order cognitive processes, particularly accessing, analyzing, evaluating, and using information. Practically, the findings highlight the importance of integrating digital literacy and critical thinking development into learning activities in vocational high schools.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the relationship between servant leadership and employee performance based on Greenleaf’s servant leadership theory. Although previous research has indicated that servant leadership is associated with improved employee performance through support, empowerment, and service orientation, empirical evidence from public-sector organizations, particularly newly autonomous regional governments, remains limited. A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional design was employed. Participants were 150 employees from 18 regional government agencies within the Southwest Papua Provincial Government. Data were collected using five-point Likert scales measuring servant leadership and employee performance and were analyzed using simple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics version 25. The results indicated that servant leadership was positively and significantly associated with employee performance (β = 0.659, t = 7.015, p < 0.001). The regression model was also statistically significant, F(1, 148) = 49.211, with a correlation coefficient of R = 0.500 and a coefficient of determination of R² = 0.250. Thus, servant leadership accounted for 25% of the variance in employee performance. These findings extend empirical evidence on the relevance of servant leadership in organizational psychology and the public sector, particularly within newly autonomous regional governments undergoing institutional strengthening and work-system adaptation. Practically, the findings highlight the importance of strengthening service-oriented leadership that emphasizes employee empowerment, support, and development to foster bureaucratic performance.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the association between problematic social media use (PSMU) and depressive symptoms among university students in Indonesia and to test whether social media envy statistically mediates this association. A total of 326 undergraduate students in Surabaya, Indonesia, participated in the study and completed the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale, Social Media Envy Scale, and Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The data were analyzed using path analysis to examine the direct and indirect associations among the variables. The results showed that PSMU was positively associated with social media envy (B = .463, SE = .057, 95% CI [.351, .575], z = 8.09, p < .001). Social media envy was also positively associated with depressive symptoms after accounting for PSMU (B = .362, SE = .052, 95% CI [.261, .463], z = 7.03, p < .001). In addition, PSMU remained positively associated with depressive symptoms after accounting for social media envy (B = .486, SE = .058, 95% CI [.371, .600], z = 8.31, p < .001). The indirect association between PSMU and depressive symptoms through social media envy was also statistically significant (B = .168, SE = .032, 95% CI [.105, .231], z = 5.31, p < .001), indicating partial statistical mediation. These findings suggest that social media envy represents one indirect psychological pathway that is statistically associated with the relationship between problematic social media use and depressive symptoms. Given the cross-sectional design, these findings should not be interpreted as evidence of causality. The results suggest that efforts to promote university students’ mental health may consider not only problematic patterns of social media use but also the emotional responses that emerge during social media engagement.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine whether sense of belonging predicts tourism awareness among residents living near Tlangoh Beach, Bangkalan, Indonesia. Tourism awareness involves not only an understanding of the existence and potential of a tourism destination but also individuals’ awareness of their roles and responsibilities in protecting the local environment, supporting tourism activities, and contributing to the sustainability of the destination. In this context, sense of belonging is considered a psychological factor that may encourage individuals to develop an attachment to their local environment and become involved in efforts to preserve and sustain it. A cross-sectional predictive design was employed with 36 residents living near Tlangoh Beach, Bangkalan. Data were collected using measures of sense of belonging and tourism awareness. The data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation and simple linear regression. The results showed a strong, positive, and statistically significant association between sense of belonging and tourism awareness, r = .727, p < .001. Regression analysis further indicated that sense of belonging significantly predicted tourism awareness, B = 0.942, SE = 0.153, t = 6.165, p < .001, with R² = .528. Thus, sense of belonging accounted for 52.8% of the variance in tourism awareness, while the remaining 47.2% was attributable to other factors not examined in this study. These findings suggest that sense of belonging is a relevant psychological factor for understanding tourism awareness among residents living near tourism destinations.

Abstract

During the transition to adulthood, the various challenges and changes faced often trigger individuals to This study aimed to examine the association between intolerance of uncertainty and psychological distress among emerging adults experiencing a quarter-life crisis. The transition to adulthood involves various challenges and changes that may precipitate a period of crisis and contribute to psychological distress. This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. Participants were 255 emerging adults who met the screening criteria for a quarter-life crisis based on the DCQ-12. Data were collected using the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale-12 (IUS-12) and the General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12), both of which have been validated for use in the Indonesian population. The data were analyzed using simple linear regression. The results revealed a significant positive association between intolerance of uncertainty and psychological distress (β = .336, R² = .113, p < .001). This finding indicates that higher levels of intolerance of uncertainty were associated with greater psychological distress among the participants. The regression model explained 11.3% of the variance in psychological distress, while the remaining variance was associated with factors not included in the model. These findings highlight the importance of considering intolerance of uncertainty in developing preventive strategies and psychological interventions for emerging adults navigating the challenges of the transition to adulthood. However, given the cross-sectional design, the findings do not establish a causal relationship between intolerance of uncertainty and psychological distress.
