Abstract

This study explores parents' knowledge of digital technology among the digital immigrant generation, who often face difficulties in utilizing technology, parenting practices for preschool children, and associated challenges. It employs qualitative research through a case study method, conducting interviews with parents born before 1981, having children aged 0-6 years, and falling within the lower-middle-class income bracket. This research was conducted from May to June 2023 in Bandung. From the five informants, it was evident that they possessed various digital devices, including smartphones, televisions, computers, and laptops with internet connections. Despite not growing up with digital technology, these parents utilize smartphones to enhance their children's motor and language development, often through educational videos or entertainment, such as games. Nonetheless, they face challenges and risks, such as children becoming overly reliant on technology and reducing their direct social interaction. In the current digital age, parents play a crucial role in ensuring appropriate and safe digital technology usage for preschool-aged children whose cognitive and functional abilities are still developing. Consequently, these findings emphasize the need for parents to exercise careful supervision of the content accessed by their children, potentially by implementing special rules or restrictions on screen time.

Abstract

Family is not the only factor that can shape the character of a child's discipline. Schools where children get education and experience, can form a disciplinary character because they must comply with applicable regulations. This study aims to determine the effect of digital parenting and school climate on students' disciplinary character. The research method used an associative quantitative approach. The researcher distributed questionnaires using Google Forms. A proportionate stratified random sampling technique was used to select the sample with 251 students in seventh and eighth grades at Public Junior High School in East Jakarta. The results showed a significant simultaneous effect between digital parenting and school climate on students' disciplinary character. Digital parenting and school climate together can explain the character of discipline by 44.1 percent. So that parents need to increase assistance and control to children by implementing digital parenting. To the school it is necessary to maintain a healthy school climate to form and improve the character of discipline in students. Thus, the higher the application of digital parenting and the healthier or more open the school climate, the higher the character of discipline in students.

Abstract

Early marriage is a marriage that is carried out under the age of 19 and generally does not have the readiness to build a family physically, economically, emotionally and has not thought about the impact of family resilience. The purpose of this study was to determine the background, causal factors and family resilience of early marriage. This research uses a qualitative case study method. There were 12 primary and secondary informants. Data collection techniques used observation, interviews, and document studies. Data analysis uses the theory of Miles and Huberman (1984) and checks the validity of the data by triangulating data sources. The results showed that the background of early marriage was due to a lack of education for the community regarding the impact of early marriage, a feeling of shame for neighbors who were married but themselves were not married, and a feeling of fear of becoming an old maid. The factors of early marriage are fear of causing fitnah, being matched because they have seen a prospective husband who is already working, the condition of parents who are not intact so they cannot afford to pay for children's schooling, the influence of social media and peers. The findings of this study are that early marriages are generally conducted “siri” because of the ease of access compared to official marriages. The level of family resilience of early marriage couples is still vulnerable, especially the legality of family integrity, physical resilience, economic resilience, and socio-psychological resilience.

Abstract

Cognitive flexibility is a part of executive function that helps individuals adjust to changing circumstances, which is important for children to adapt with surroundings. Alongside with rapid cognitive development during preschool-age, preschoolers also show maturity in symbolic functions that grow distinct characteristics in imaginative play. This research aimed to see the role of age and imaginative play in predicting preschool-aged children's cognitive flexibility. Sample was carried out using a convenience-sampling technique and this research subjects were 74 preschoolers (4–6 years) and their parents. Participants in this study are preschool-aged children who are enrolled at preschool in Jakarta, Bogor, and Depok areas, along with parents or guardians of the children who accompanied the children in their daily activities at home. This study used hierarchical linear regression analysis techniques in SPSS to analyze the role of age and imaginative play in predicting cognitive flexibility. The result showed both age and imaginative play significantly predict cognitive flexibility. Age has 9.4 percent of the role, whereas imaginative play accounted for 8.3 percent. These provide an illustration for parents and educators that imaginative play activities can facilitate the development of cognitive flexibility at preschool age.
