Abstract

The psychometric properties of the Indonesian version of the 18-item Mental Toughness Questionnaire (MTQ-18) remain vague. This study uses the Rasch model to elucidate these properties. In addition, boosting classification was adopted to assess the predictive validity of athletes’ achievement. The sample size comprised 400 athletes. According to the Martin-Loef likelihood-ratio test = 482, p = 1.0 and factor analysis of the Rasch residuals, the questionnaire tends to make unidimensional assumptions. The MADaQ3 = 0.074 shows the overall tendency of local independency across all items, with the majority clustered in moderate to low-level measures. Q11, Q15, and Q18 were clearly identified as showing gender bias, with significant effect sizes. According to the boosting classification, the performance between national vs no achievement (F1 = 0.7, AUC = 0.56) and international vs no achievement (F1 = 0.62, AUC = 0.58) was flagged as unsatisfactory predictive performance. In conclusion, the abridged questionnaire is not preferable for determining an individual’s future performance or achievement. Future studies are needed to develop a better version that is more unimpeded by gender bias, and to resolve the variability of the items.

Abstract

While remote working conditions became more prominent post COVID-19, they have influenced a shift in the subjective well-being (SWB) of remote employees. The impact of the associated job stress has been underexplored in Indonesia. Drawing on the job demands-resources model, this research investigates the underlying mechanisms of job stress in explaining the relationships between work-life conflict, workforce agility, and SWB among remote employees. A total of 350 permanent employees who work fulltime remotely in several organization in Indonesia (65.7% women, M-age = 26.19 years; SD = 3.66) participated in the study. Data were collected using scales measuring work-life conflict, workforce agility, SWB and job stress, distributed online via Google Forms. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) techniques with the IBM SPSS AMOS program. The results showed that work-life conflict and workforce agility were associated with subjective well-being ( β = -.32 and .79, p < .001; respectively). Furthermore, job stress fully explains the relationship between work-life conflict and subjective well-being (CI -.46 – -.12) and partially explains the association between workforce agility and subjective well-being (CI .62 – .87). The findings have implications for how organizations and counsellors can assist remote employees in enhancing their well-being by managing their stress, promoting workforce agility, and overcoming work-life conflicts.

Abstract

Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a prevalent mental health issue among adolescents, with difficulties in emotional regulation identified as a significant predictor of such behavior. A set of neurocognitive skills known as executive function (EF) is also linked to NSSI. This study investigates the relationship between executive function problems and NSSI behavior, explicitly examining the mediating role of emotional dysregulation. Participants were selected using a non-probability purposive sampling technique, with the final sample consisting of 211 Indonesian adolescents aged between 12 and 18 (M = 14.57, SD = 1.42). The measurement instruments included the Teenage Executive Function Inventory (TEXI), the Cognitive Flexibility Scale (CFS), the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale Short Form (DERS-SF), and the Deliberate Self-Harm Inventory (DSHI). Mediation analysis using the PROCESS macro for SPSS (model 4), revealed that emotion dysregulation significantly mediated the relationship between EF problems and NSSI. The indirect effect of EF problems and NSSI through emotion dysregulation was statistically significant (B = 0.203, 95% CI [0.0805, 0.3741]). Adolescents with lower EF are more prone to emotional difficulties, thus increasing the risk of NSSI. The study provides implications that help elucidate the dynamics of the NSSI phenomenon among adolescents. Furthermore, the findings highlight the need for interventions targeting both cognitive and emotional regulation skills to reduce NSSI in adolescents and promote overall mental health and well-being.

Abstract

Depression has become a critical mental health issue, especially among college students, with increasing prevalence worldwide. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 322 million people globally suffer from the condition, with a prevalence rate of around 3.7% in Indonesia. This research examines the effectiveness of spiritual mindfulness therapy in reducing depression symptoms among university students. The study involved 28 Malang students aged 18 to 22 who participated voluntarily. The research approach was based on quantitative methods, with an experimental Solomon Four-Group design, in which the participants were divided into four groups: two who received treatment and two who served as controls. Spiritual mindfulness therapy was administered through both individual and group sessions, with depression levels measured using the PHQ-9 instrument before and after the 8-session intervention, using pre-test and post-test assessments. The results show a significant reduction in depression symptoms, differing between the groups (F = 18.547, p < .001), with the analysis indicating a significant improvement in the treatment groups. The effect sizes ranged from d = 2.75 to d = 3.33, indicating a high therapeutic impact. The research implies that spiritual mindfulness therapy can effectively alleviate depressive symptoms in students, providing a promising intervention for mental health support in educational settings.

Abstract

Children with special needs require caregivers to care for them and provide full or partial assistance in the carrying out of their daily activities, including undergoing therapy, going to school, receiving medication, and performing their daily routines. This can cause stress and a burden of care for caregiver, meaning that caregivers require emotional competence; this study aims to develop a model of such competence. Using a cross-sectional, correlational quantitative approach, data were collected from 120 caregivers selected purposively from the Yamet Foundation in Central Java. The research instruments were the Profile of Emotional Competence, Centrality of Religiosity Scale, Resilience Scale, and the Parenting Stress Scale. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with Lisrel. The findings reveal that the proposed model successfully captures the relationships between parenting stress, resilience, religiosity, and emotional competence. Parenting stress significantly and negatively affects emotional competence, with a path coefficient of β = -.39, t = -5.29, with higher stress levels correlating to reduced resilience and religiosity. In addition, resilience and religiosity act as mediator variables, with a score of z = -2.346 for religiosity and z = -2.017 for resilience, meaning that both variables act as mediators. However, resilience and religiosity do not directly influence each other. The study suggests that enhancing parents’ resilience and religiosity may buffer the impact of parenting stress on emotional competence. Thus, psychosocial support programs should integrate resilience-building and spiritual-based approaches to empower families of children with special needs.

Abstract

Recidivism remains a persistent challenge in criminal justice, highlighting the need for effective, evidence-based rehabilitation strategies. Despite current programs, many offenders relapse into criminal behavior due to unresolved psychosocial issues. This study examines the effectiveness of the Paradigm Shift Module (PSM), based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), in enhancing self-awareness among criminal offenders—a key factor in behavioral transformation. A quasi-experimental design with pretest and posttest measures was employed. A total of 80 offenders were selected through purposive sampling and divided into two groups: a treatment group that received the PSM intervention and a control group with no intervention. The Paradigm Shift Instrument (PSI), developed by the researcher, was used to assess self-awareness across three subconstructs: attitude, trait, and behavior. The PSI demonstrated strong psychometric properties, with a content validity index (CVI) of ≥ 0.95 and a Cronbach’s alpha of .955. Statistical analysis, including paired sample t-tests and multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA), revealed significant improvements in the treatment group. Attitude scores increased from M = 1.85 to M = 3.27 (t = -22.910, p < .05); trait from M = 1.89 to M = 3.23 (t = -20.916, p < .05); and behavior from M = 1.89 to M = 3.21 (t = -21.547, p < .05). The MANCOVA results confirm a significant treatment effect, while age and recidivism history showed no significant influence. The findings indicate that the PSM is a promising and effective intervention for fostering self-awareness, supporting rehabilitation, and reducing the likelihood of reoffending among incarcerated individuals.

Abstract

Families caring for schizophrenic individuals experience pressure due to their associated roles and responsibilities, a situation known as subjective burden. Cultural values influence decision-making related to caretaking behavior, including that based on the Javanese value of rasa rumangsa as an adaptive coping mechanism in caregiving contexts. Social support is a factor that helps to reduce the subjective burden of families taking care of schizophrenic individuals. This study examines social support as a mediator in the role of rasa rumangsa in relation to such subjective burden. The quantitative research used surveys for the data collection method, with 112 carer families of schizophrenic individuals chosen for the study by purposive sampling. The questionnaires used were 1) the Rasa Rumangsa Scale; 2) the Interpersonal Support Evaluation List (ISEL); and 3) the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). The hypothesis was tested using Jamovi version 2.6.13 with the medmod module, following Model 4 of Hayes' simple mediation framework. The results indicate that social support fully mediates the relationship between rasa rumangsa and the subjective burden of families caring for individuals with schizophrenia (indirect effect: ß = -.1137, p < .05, 95% CI = -.2186, -.0105). The implication of studying rasa rumangsa as a cultural coping mechanism can be an alternative way of explaining its relationship with the subjective burden of such families. In addition, the findings could also be used to develop mental health programs to improve social support, which will ultimately reduce the subjective burden.

Abstract

Building resilience among schoolchildren in flood-prone Kerala, India, is essential due to the recurring and severe impacts of floods. The 2018 floods and subsequent events led to widespread displacement, prolonged school closures, and disruptions to children's emotional and social support systems. This study explores disaster preparedness characteristics, coping mechanisms, and essential psychosocial skills among children to develop a child-centred disaster preparedness module. Adopting a qualitative case study design, data were collected through four focus group discussions with 32 schoolchildren, and interviews with six parents and four school social workers. Thematic analysis was conducted manually using Braun and Clarke’s six-step method, identifying themes considered as module section under three parts: disaster preparedness characteristics, including understanding flood hazards, articulation, support and collaboration; coping mechanisms, including emotional regulation, information management and exposure control, resilient behavior, and general health awareness; and psychosocial skills, including life skills, socio-spatial skills, cognitive skills, and skill-based preparedness. The proposed disaster preparedness module is intended for implemented in school curricula to enhance psychosocial readiness and confidence among children.

Abstract

Parents of children with Down syndrome in Riau, Indonesia, encounter distinct psychological challenges, and the influence of demographic factors warrants further exploration. This study investigates the mediating role of demographics in the psychological well-being of 351 parents, employing a cross-sectional, quantitative design with purposive sampling. Standardized scales assessed psychological well-being, self-acceptance, stigma, and social support, which were analyzed using Bayesian methods. Lower self-acceptance significantly and directly correlated with poorer psychological well-being (β = −.1491, p = .0016), while higher parental education significantly predicted greater self-acceptance (β = .0119, p < .001), which in turn positively impacted well-being. Notably, older children were significantly associated with reduced social support (β = −.0101, p = .0010), and lower social support directly linked to reduced psychological well-being (β = −.1526, p = .0015). In theoretical terms, the study contributes by elucidating the indirect pathways through which demographic factors shape parental well-being within the Indonesian context. Practically, the findings underscore the need for culturally sensitive interventions focused on enhancing self-acceptance, providing accessible educational resources, and strengthening adaptive social support networks tailored to the evolving needs of parents of children with Down syndrome in Indonesia.
