Abstract

Psychological well-being is influenced by moral and self-regulatory processes, particularly in religious and cultural contexts. This study examined the effects of moral integrity and ego depletion on psychological well-being and tested the moderating role of ego depletion. Using a quantitative correlational design, data were collected from 247 Muslim undergraduate students of Sundanese ethnicity. Moderation analysis using a general linear model indicated that moral integrity positively predicted psychological well-being, whereas ego depletion negatively predicted psychological well-being. Although the interaction effect was relatively small, further analyses using simple slopes and the Johnson-Neyman technique revealed that ego depletion conditioned the strength of the relationship between moral integrity and psychological well-being, with stronger effects observed at higher levels of ego depletion. These findings suggest that moral integrity remains a protective factor for psychological well-being, particularly under conditions of increased self-regulatory demands. The study highlights the importance of considering self-regulatory fatigue when examining the psychological benefits of moral integrity in religious populations.

Abstract

Gender differences in academic self-efficacy, motivation, and school climate provide critical insights into variations in student learning experiences and outcomes. Therefore, this study aims to examine how these factors influence well-being among Indonesian high school student and explore the effect of gender on these relationships. Using a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 401 student aged 14–18 years across 36 public school in 16 provinces through an online questionnaire. The results showed that academic self-efficacy and school climate significantly and positively predicted well-being for both male and female student. Academic motivation showed no significant effect among males but had a positive influence among females. These results underscore the importance of strengthening student self-efficacy and creating supportive school environments. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the need for gender-sensitive approaches in educational programs that address motivational dynamics to effectively promote student well-being.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the influence of career – related self-efficacy and parent- child goal congruence as predictors of career engagement among university students. The participants comprised 237 active students (17.7% male, 82.9% female) aged 19-21 (M = 19.23, SD = .97), selected from the Faculty of Psychology at a private university in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The study adopted a quantitative method with three instruments such as the career-related self-efficacy, the parent-child career goal congruence, and the career engagement scales. Furthermore, the data obtained were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The results showed that career – related self – efficacy and parent – child career goal congruence significantly predicted career engagement, accounting for 19.6% of the variance. This suggested that students who possessed higher self-efficacy and stronger congruence between career goal and parental expectation were associated with increased career engagement. In conclusion, the study provided valuable insights for parents and counselors in supporting students’ career engagement.

Abstract

Aesthetics are inseparable from the involvement of emotions; aesthetic emotion appears as an emotion that arises when exposure to an aesthetic stimulus. Aesthetic emotion remains limited to self-report scale measurements and doesn’t provide physiological evidence. One of the measurements of aesthetic emotions can be conducted by observing emotional arousal through electrodermal activity (EDA). This study aimed to observe the arousal of aesthetic emotions through electrodermal activity that is restricted to the musical domain using auditory stimuli. The aesthetic audio stimuli are pleasant and unpleasant music as a representation of positive and negative emotions. The hypothesis assumed that there are arousal differences in aesthetic emotions from exposure to pleasant and unpleasant stimuli. The study experimented a within-group design, involving 20 non-musician students aged 20-28 years. Participants were given an aesthetic music stimulus from the Film Music Stimulus Set (FMSS), which was included in the category of pleasant and unpleasant music. EDA measurements calculate the mean amplitude of the phasic component as an indicator of emotional arousal during stimulus exposure. Experiments also provide the Aesthetic Responsiveness Assessment (AreA) to see individual responsiveness toward aesthetic stimuli. The results provide evidence related to the hypothesis that arousal of aesthetic emotions during exposure to pleasant and unpleasant stimuli has significant differences. The relationship between aesthetic responsiveness and EDA is noticeable by recognizing the type of presented stimuli. The findings in this study provide an idea related to the application of aesthetic stimuli in various contexts, that music that provides pleasant effects tends to provide more intense emotional arousal.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of future orientation and career self-efficacy in shaping work readiness among university students. Using a cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 321 students of a private university in Tangerang through validated questionnaires and analyzed with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results show that future orientation does not have a significant direct effect on work readiness, whereas career self-efficacy has a positive and significant effect. Moreover, future orientation significantly influences career self-efficacy, which in turn mediates the relationship between future orientation and work readiness, indicating full mediation. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening students’ career self-efficacy as an internal resource to prepare them for the workforce. The study contributes to the understanding of psychological factors underlying work readiness and provides practical implications for career guidance and higher education.

Abstract

Entrepreneurial readiness is increasingly shaped by psychological factors that enable individuals to adapt and persist in uncertain conditions. Previous, studies on this topic have largely examined psychological factors such as mental health, resilience, and adversity quotient in isolation, resulting in a fragmented understanding of their combined influence on entrepreneurial outcomes.Therefore this study aims to address the stated gap by integrating the outlined constructs within a unified framework. In order to achieve this objective, a sequential mixed-method design was adopted, combining bibliometric analysis of 356 Scopus-indexed documents (2010–2025) with Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) based on data from 412 health students. The bibliometric findings identified resilience, adversity quotient, and mental well-being as growing themes in entrepreneurship exploration. SEM results showed that adversity quotient had the strongest effect on entrepreneurial readiness (β=.734, p<.001), followed by resilience (β=.466, p<.001) and mental health (β=.260, p=.046). Resilience also significantly mediated these relationships. TCollectively, these findings suggest that resilience, adversity quotient, and mental health are foundational components of entrepreneurial readiness and should be integrated into entrepreneurship education and student development programs.

Abstract

This study aimed to translate the digital stress scale (DSS) into Indonesian version using three stages. Study 1 translated and validated the DSS into Indonesian using a back-translation approach with six experts and produced a scale translation script in the Indonesian version. Subsequently, study 2 validated the DSS in the Indonesian version through exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and a total of 453 respondents participated in this stage. EFA results showed a KMO value of .87, accounting for 56.3% of the total variance. The analysis identified five factors, consistent with the original version, but two items were excluded because of low factor loading. Study 3 was conducted to confirm the model from Study 2 using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and a total of 544 respondents participated. CFA showed that the DSS has five dimensions, similar to the original version, with a CFI value = .93, TLI = .91, NFI = .90, GFI = .91, and RMSEA = .07. However, the results did not support measurement invariance across gender. In conclusion, this study produced an instrument with good psychometric properties for measuring stress resulting from digital activities.

Abstract

The increasing visibility of the childfree lifestyle is generating public discussion in Indonesia, particularly in relation to personal autonomy, readiness for parenthood, and religious-cultural expectations. Therefore, this study aimed to explore university students’ perspectives on the childfree phenomenon and the reasons underlying their supportive or opposing stand. The method used was a descriptive qualitative design, comprising 82 students enrolled in Gender Psychology courses at a university in Surabaya, Indonesia. Participants consisted of 67 females and 15 males aged 18-22 years, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using an online open-ended questionnaire and analyzed by iterative thematic analysis. The results showed that 54 and 46% of participants disagreed and agreed with the childfree choice, respectively. Supportive responses were generally framed from a public or third-person perspective, emphasizing individual autonomy, readiness, past experiences, environmental concerns, and medical factors. In contrast, opposing responses were more often expressed through personal and normative perspectives. This emphasized religious beliefs, children as successors and sources of happiness, personal desire for parenthood, and expectations of care in old age. In conclusion, the results suggest that students’ views on the childfree lifestyle are shaped by the interaction between personal evaluations, perceived readiness, and religious-cultural norms.

Abstract

This study aimed to explore how inter-ethnic friendship are initiated and sustained among migrant students in Java, and the effect on social adaptation and identity negotiation. Using a qualitative design, in-depth interviews were conducted with 18 students from diverse ethnic backgrounds who had migrated to Java for higher education. The results showed that thematic analysis identified four major themes, namely (1) migration, educational inequality, and the opportunity for encounter, (2) the “frog in a shell” relationship and conditional friendship, (3) social skills in identity negotiation, and (4) alien guests vs. guests at home. Despite initial barriers, participants demonstrated openness, empathy, and a shared national identity that allowed for significant cross-ethnic relationships. Inter-ethnic friendship were found to facilitate social inclusion, personal growth, and deeper appreciation of cultural diversity. In conclusion, this study contributes to a better understanding of how students navigate intergroup boundaries and transform educational migration into opportunities for unity in a plural society.

Abstract

Moral disengagement (MD) is a cognitive mechanism that plays a significant role in the development of negative behaviors, including bullying. In this context, a valid and reliable measure of MD is needed to understand the dynamics of bullying in schools. The development, modification, or adaptation of MD scale intended to measure bullying-related MD among school students in Indonesia remains limited. Therefore, this study aimed to adapt and validate the Short Moral Disengagement in Bullying Scale (MDBS) for use in the Indonesian context. The cross-cultural adaptation of the instrument used the forward-backward translation method and was administered to 301 students. The results showed that all six items reported adequate factor loadings (.41–.71), reporting satisfactory item representation of the underlying construct. The measurement model exhibited a good fit to the data (χ²/df = 1.317; CFI = .988; RMSEA = .032). In addition, the scale showed acceptable reliability (CR = .769; AVE = .363) and remained robust across different groups, supporting the measurement stability. The AVE provided new insights regarding the contextual boundaries of collectivistic culture for the universal cognitive structure of MD. The Indonesian version of the Short MDBS could be used with students in junior high school or equivalent grades 7 through 9.
