Potensi Stand Up Comedy pada Kanal Youtube dalam Model Pembelajaran Sinektik: Perspektif Guru Sekolah Dasar
type: item
description: Persistent constraints in idea generation continue to characterize narrative writing among sixth-grade elementary students, whose cognitive development remains closely tied to concrete and experiential stimuli. The integration of stand-up comedy content from YouTube into a synectics-based learning framework emerges as a pedagogical alternative that bridges affective engagement and cognitive activation. The underlying assumption positions humor-driven narratives and analogical thinking as complementary mechanisms for stimulating creative expression in writing. A qualitative descriptive-exploratory approach was employed, centering on in-depth semi-structured interviews with primary school teachers. The analytical process followed a thematic orientation, capturing how teachers interpret the relevance, feasibility, and pedagogical implications of the proposed model within classroom practice. The findings reveal a consistent recognition of contextual relevance and motivational value, particularly in facilitating idea generation through relatable and humorous narratives. At the same time, concerns regarding classroom control, content appropriateness, and instructional alignment indicate that implementation is neither automatic nor neutral. The significance of these findings lies in repositioning instructional innovation as a teacher-mediated process, in which effectiveness depends less on the model itself than on the pedagogical judgment that shapes its adaptation and enactment.

Literasi AI dan Keterbukaan Diri Digital Siswa SMP di Era Kecerdasan Buatan: Analisis Model PLS-SEM
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the relationship between artificial intelligence literacy (AI literacy) and junior high school students’ digital self-disclosure in the era of artificial intelligence. The increasing phenomenon of students’ emotional interactions with AI-based systems such as ChatGPT indicates that technology is no longer merely a learning tool, but also a space for self-expression. Employing an explanatory quantitative approach with the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method, this study involved 243 students who are accustomed to interacting with AI applications in both academic and personal contexts. The conceptual model was developed through the integration of the AI literacy framework proposed by Wang, Rau, and Yuan (2022), comprising awareness, usage, evaluation, and ethics, and the digital self-disclosure framework by Merwin et al. (2025), which includes personal sharing, comfort, trust, and preference for AI. The findings reveal that eight out of fourteen hypothesized relationships are statistically significant. The dimensions of AI awareness and usage positively influence students’ comfort and trust in AI, while the ethical dimension functions as a regulatory factor that restrains excessive self-disclosure. Emotional factors, particularly feelings of comfort and trust, are found to serve as the primary bridge between students’ cognitive abilities and their digital behavior. These findings highlight that AI literacy not only reflects technological competence but also encompasses ethical and emotional awareness in human–AI interactions. This study recommends that AI literacy education in secondary schools should not be limited to technical proficiency, but should also emphasize the development of empathetic, reflective, and responsible digital character in an increasingly digitalized world.

Hubungan Empati dan Perilaku Perundungan pada Remaja
type: item
description: This study examines the correlation between empathy and bullying behavior among students at SMP Ma’arif 1 Metro. Bullying in school environments has become an increasing concern due to its negative impact on students’ psychological well-being. Previous studies suggest that empathy plays a crucial role in shaping social behavior; however, empirical findings regarding its relationship with bullying remain inconsistent. Employing a quantitative approach, this study involved a population of 321 students, with a sample of 178 students selected for analysis. Data were collected using validated instruments, including a 10-item empathy scale and a 15-item bullying behavior scale. Due to non-normal data distribution (p = 0.019), the analysis was conducted using Spearman's rank correlation. The findings reveal that both empathy and bullying behavior are at a moderate level, and there is a significant but weak positive correlation between the two variables (rₛ = 0.268, p < 0.05). This result indicates a complex relationship between empathy and bullying behavior, suggesting that other psychological or social factors may influence this association. These findings highlight the importance of considering multiple factors in developing interventions to reduce bullying, rather than focusing solely on enhancing empathy

Integrating Da’wah into Islamic Counseling Practices on Social Media Platforms
type: item
description: This study explores how da’wah can be positioned as an Islamic counseling approach within social media environments. The growing use of digital platforms has not only changed communication patterns but also intensified psychological and emotional challenges such as anxiety, stress, and identity confusion. These conditions call for counseling approaches that are both accessible and spiritually grounded. This study employs a qualitative descriptive design using a library research method, drawing on recent scholarly works related to da’wah, Islamic counseling, and digital media. The findings show that integrating da’wah into counseling practices supports the development of self-awareness (muhasabah), encourages personal transformation (hijrah), and strengthens spiritual resilience (taqwa). In this context, social media functions not merely as a communication tool but as a space for ongoing guidance and interaction. This study suggests that da’wah can play a more integrative role as a counseling approach in addressing contemporary psychological and spiritual needs in the digital era.

Hubungan Antara Empati dengan Perilaku Prososial Siswa SMA
type: item
description: The phenomenon of declining social awareness among adolescents indicates that prosocial behavior has not developed optimally, which is thought to be related to low levels of individual empathy. Empathy, as the ability to understand and feel the emotional conditions of others, plays an important role in encouraging the emergence of prosocial behavior. This study aims to describe the level of empathy, describe the level of prosocial behavior, and examine the relationship between empathy and prosocial behavior in high school students. The respondents of this study were 254 students of SMA Negeri 4 Pariaman in grades X, XI, and XII, selected through a stratified random sampling technique. The study was conducted with a quantitative approach using a correlational method. The instruments used were the Student Empathy Scale and the Student Prosocial Behavior Scale using a Likert scale. Data were analyzed using the Pearson Product-Moment correlation test with the help of SPSS software version 27.0 for Windows. The results showed that the level of empathy was generally in the high category (65.75%), while the level of prosocial behavior was generally in the medium category (63.39%). The correlation analysis of the two variables showed a significant and positive relationship (r = 0.643; p <0.05). The research results show that higher empathy tends to increase prosocial behavior. These findings should serve as a basis for school counselors and educational institutions in designing programs and interventions to enhance and develop empathy and prosocial behavior in students.

Regulasi Emosi dan Kemampuan Belajar Siswa Sekolah Dasar: Sebuah Kajian Fenomenologi
type: item
description: Emotion regulation is a fundamental ability that plays an important role in the success of learning processes for elementary school-aged children. This study aims to gain an in-depth understanding of elementary school students' experiences of emotion regulation and its relationship with their learning ability in the real school context. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive phenomenological design. Ten fifth-grade students from SD Negeri 136 Palembang were selected purposively as main informants, along with four classroom teachers and three parents. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. Data validity was ensured through source triangulation and member checking. Data analysis followed Braun and Clarke's (2022) thematic analysis technique. Three main themes were identified: (1) negative emotional experiences as barriers to learning, (2) emotion regulation strategies used by students, and (3) the role of the school and family environment in supporting emotion regulation. Emotion regulation is not merely an internal factor but a socially and contextually constructed process. Holistic interventions involving both teachers and parents are essential to optimize elementary school students' learning ability.

Peran Multidimensional Lingkungan Sekolah terhadap Kondisi Emosional Siswa Sekolah Dasar: Studi Kasus Kualitatif
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the role of the school environment in shaping the emotional well-being of elementary school students. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study method, conducted with third-grade students at SD Negeri 85 Palembang. The study subjects consisted of one teacher and six students, selected purposively. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions using thematic analysis. The results showed that students' emotional well-being is significantly influenced by three main dimensions of the school environment: social, physical, and cultural. Specifically, empathetic and communicative teacher-student interactions have been shown to increase students' self-confidence and active participation in learning. Supportive peer relationships encourage students' comfort and courage in expressing their opinions, while negative interactions, such as light teasing, tend to decrease self-confidence and learning engagement. Physically, clean, well-organized classrooms with good lighting and ventilation improve concentration and emotional stability, while noise and uncomfortable temperatures trigger restless behavior. Furthermore, a school culture that instills the values of discipline, responsibility, and mutual respect contributes to positive student emotional regulation. These findings indicate that the school environment acts as a complex and dynamic system in contextually shaping students' emotional states.

Pengaruh Keputusan Karier terhadap Psychological Well-Being Remaja: Keterlibatan Orang Tua sebagai Variabel Moderasi
type: item
description: Adolescence is a crucial phase in identity formation that requires optimal psychological well-being. Career decision-making is one of the key factors influencing this condition. This study aims to examine the effect of career decision-making on adolescents' psychological well-being and to investigate the role of parental involvement as a moderating variable. A quantitative approach with correlational design and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) was employed. Participants were 118 twelfth-grade students at MA Darul A'mal, Metro City, selected through purposive sampling. Instruments included the career decision scale, parental involvement scale, and psychological well-being scale. Results showed that: (1) career decision-making had a significant positive effect on psychological well-being (B = 0.524; sig. = 0.000); (2) parental involvement significantly moderated the relationship between career decision-making and psychological well-being (B interaction = 1.822; sig. = 0.009); (3) simultaneously, the variables explained 53.7% of the variance in psychological well-being. These findings imply the importance of career guidance programs that integrate parental involvement to enhance adolescent psychological well-being.

Internalisasi Nilai dan Kontrol Sosial Berbasis Simbol dalam Praktik Songko’ Recca Bugis
type: item
description: This study examines the role of songko’ recca, a traditional Bugis headwear, as a mechanism of value internalization and informal social control within the community. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observation, and visual documentation. The findings reveal that songko’ recca functions beyond a cultural or religious symbol, serving as a medium through which social and religious values are internalized into individual consciousness. Through repeated use and shared meanings, the symbol fosters self-regulation, encouraging individuals to align their behavior with societal norms. Additionally, songko’ recca operates as an informal social control mechanism by generating social expectations, symbolic surveillance, and collective judgment in everyday interactions. The study demonstrates that symbolic practices can simultaneously shape internal awareness and regulate external behavior. Theoretically, this research integrates perspectives of symbolic interactionism, value internalization, and social control to explain how cultural symbols function as active agents in social life. Practically, the findings highlight the potential of culturally embedded symbols in developing context-based approaches within Community Counseling and Cross-Cultural Counseling. This study contributes to expanding the understanding of religious symbols as dynamic mechanisms for psychosocial regulation in society.

Islamic Boarding School Counseling in Handling New Students Experiencing Maladjustment
type: item
description: This research is motivated by the phenomenon of maladjustment among new students at the Nurul Jadid Islamic Boarding School in Probolinggo, specifically their difficulties adjusting to the environment, rules, and patterns of life at the boarding school. This problem results in low motivation, stress, and even rule-breaking behavior. The purpose of this study is to determine the role of the boarding school administrators in reducing maladjustment among new students, identify the forms of maladjustment that arise, and describe the Islamic counseling program implemented at the boarding school. The research method used a descriptive qualitative approach with a post-positivist paradigm. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and structured interviews with administrators, students, and their families. The results indicate that maladjustment among new students manifests as a lack of discipline, homesickness, difficulty establishing social relationships, and rule violations. The boarding school administrators play a crucial role in fostering discipline, providing religious guidance, and providing counseling services based on Islamic values. The counseling program includes the administrators' role in maintaining justice and equality in the application of sanctions for disciplinary violations.

Proses Pembentukan Self-Control sebagai upaya Pencegahan Relapse pada Pasien Rehabilitasi Narkoba
type: item
description: Drug abuse is a complex social problem that has widespread impacts on physical, psychological, social, and economic aspects of life. One of the main challenges in the rehabilitation process is the high risk of relapse, which is often influenced by low levels of individual self-control. This study aims to analyze the process of developing self-control as an effort to prevent relapse among rehabilitation patients at IPWL YPI Nurul Ichsan Al-Islami. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. The subjects consisted of rehabilitation patients and counselors selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was ensured through source triangulation and method triangulation. The results showed that the development of self-control occurs gradually and holistically, covering behavioral, cognitive, emotional, and spiritual aspects. This process is carried out through detoxification, mental and spiritual guidance, and the formation of positive habits. Rehabilitation programs such as individual counseling, group counseling, and religious guidance play a significant role in enhancing self-control. Supporting factors include internal motivation, family support, and a conducive rehabilitation environment, while inhibiting factors include negative environmental influences and unstable psychological conditions. In conclusion, self-control is a key factor in preventing relapse and is developed through a holistic approach integrating psychological and spiritual aspects.

Studi Deskriptif Kejenuhan Belajar dalam Pelaksanaan Program Tahfiz di Pondok Pesantren
type: item
description: This study aims to describe the level of learning saturation of students in the implementation of the Tahfiz Al-Qur'an program at the Az-Zayadiy Sanggrahan Islamic Boarding School. The research uses a quantitative approach with descriptive methods and survey techniques. The population comprises 268 students, and a sample of 160 students is selected using purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out using a scale questionnaire compiled based on three aspects of learning saturation according to Maslach: emotional fatigue, depersonalization, and decreased personal achievement. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics to find out the general picture of the level of student learning saturation. The results of the study showed that the learning boredom rate of students was in the medium category of 72.74%. Most of the students (67.5%) are in the medium category, while the rest are in the low (16.9%) and high (15.6%) categories. Based on aspect analysis, emotional fatigue becomes a high dimension, followed by a decrease in personal achievement, while depersonalization is at a lower level. The findings of this study confirm the importance of the role of tahfiz supervisors in helping students manage learning boredom through mentoring that not only focuses on memorization achievement, but also pays attention to psychological and spiritual aspects. An approach that integrates emotional support, a variety of learning methods, and the strengthening of spiritual values is expected to help students maintain a balance between learning demands and emotional conditions. The results of this research are expected to be the basis for developing a mentoring strategy that is more responsive to the needs of students in the tahfiz program.

Model Supervisi Berbasis CIPP untuk Penguatan Layanan Bimbingan dan Konseling di Sekolah: Sebuah Systematic Literature Review
type: item
description: Effective supervision of guidance and counseling (BK) is a key factor in ensuring accountability and improving the quality of BK services in schools. However, administrative and non-comprehensive supervisory practices often fail to drive substantive improvement. Stufflebeam's CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) model offers a systemic evaluation framework, yet its application as a supervision model oriented toward sustainable service development remains underexplored. This study aims to synthesize empirical evidence on the CIPP model's application in evaluating school BK programs and analyze its potential to be developed into a supervision model that strengthens BK services. A systematic literature review (SLR) following the PRISMA protocol was conducted. Article searches were performed in SINTA, Google Scholar, Scopus, and DOAJ databases for the period 2015–2025, yielding nine relevant articles after final selection. Thematic analysis indicates that the CIPP model effectively evaluates BK programs comprehensively, identifying gaps in context (alignment of vision-mission with student needs), input (counselor qualifications, facilities), process (service implementation), and product (impact on student development). Key findings reveal that weaknesses in BK services often originate in the input aspect (resource limitations and non-standard counselor qualifications) and the process aspect (inadequate service time allocation). This study concludes that the CIPP model is not only useful as a summative evaluation tool but also holds strong potential as a formative supervision framework. Consequently, developing a CIPP-based supervision model can promote targeted, sustainable, and student-centered improvement of BK service quality in schools.

Analisis Kematangan Emosi dalam Membentuk Kesiapan Belajar Siswa
type: item
description: This study analyzed the relationship between emotional maturity and students' learning readiness at SDN 17 Kayuagung. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through direct observation and documentation of student development records. The results showed that emotional maturity is a key determinant in shaping learning readiness. Students with good emotional regulation demonstrate high focus, strong motivation, and active participation in learning. Conversely, emotional instability is a significant barrier to student concentration and engagement in class. The study's conclusions confirm that improving learning readiness in elementary schools requires strengthening psychological factors and the learning environment, in addition to academic factors.

Educational Psychology-Based Learning Strategies to Support Elementary School-Age Children's Learning
type: item
description: Elementary school children are at a crucial stage of development in cognitive, emotional, social, and moral aspects. Therefore, learning strategies should not only focus on academic achievement but also take into account students' developmental characteristics. Educational psychology plays a significant role in helping educators understand how children learn and the factors influencing learning success. This study aims to examine educational psychology-based learning strategies to support elementary school students. The method used is a literature review analyzing recent scientific journals and books. The results indicate that strategies such as active learning, play-based learning, contextual learning, and individualized approaches can enhance motivation, engagement, and learning outcomes.

Pengaruh Gaya Belajar terhadap Perkembangan Akademik Siswa di Sekolah Dasar
type: item
description: This study aims to describe the influence of learning styles on the academic development of elementary school students at SDN 1 Selat Penuguan. The study was motivated by the fact that classroom instruction often uses uniform teaching methods, whereas students receive, process, and express information in different ways. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed through classroom observation, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation of learning activities. The analysis focused on visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles; the way teachers identify students' learning preferences; and instructional strategies that can support academic development. The findings indicate that students show varied learning tendencies: visual learners respond strongly to pictures, colors, diagrams, and videos; auditory learners benefit from oral explanation, discussion, and question-and-answer activities; and kinesthetic learners understand concepts more easily through practice, movement, simulation, and direct experience. The mismatch between teaching strategies and students' learning tendencies may reduce attention, participation, confidence, and task completion. The novelty of this study lies in its integration of learning-style identification with multimodal and differentiated teaching strategies in an elementary school context. Understanding students' learning styles helps teachers design more inclusive, meaningful, and engaging learning experiences that support students' academic development.

Literature Review: Pentingnya Memahami Gaya Belajar Anak dalam Pembelajaran di Kelas pada Perspektif Teori dan Psikologi Belajar Anak Sekolah Dasar
type: item
description: Basic education has an important role in developing the potential of students, especially through an effective learning process that is in accordance with student characteristics. One of the factors that affects the success of learning is learning style, which is the way an individual receives, processes, and understands information. This study aims to examine the importance of understanding students' learning styles from the perspective of learning theory and psychology in elementary schools. The method used is qualitative descriptive through literature studies by examining various sources such as books, scientific journals, and related articles. The results of the study show that learning styles are divided into three main types, namely visual, auditory, and kinesthetic, each of which has different characteristics in the learning process. In addition, learning theories such as behaviorism, cognitivism, constructivism, and humanistic provide a foundation for understanding how students learn optimally. Understanding learning styles allows teachers to design learning strategies, methods, and media that are more varied, interesting, and in accordance with students' needs. Thus, learning becomes more effective, increases motivation, and improves student learning outcomes. Therefore, teachers need to recognize and accommodate differences in students' learning styles to create an optimal and meaningful learning process in elementary school.

Implementasi Nilai Moderasi Beragama pada Tradisi Satu Tungku Tiga Batu dalam Konseling Keluarga Islam
type: item
description: This study examines the implementation of religious moderation values in Islamic family counseling practices rooted in the local wisdom of Satu Tungku Tiga Batu in Kampung Patipi Pulau, Fakfak Regency. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with a religious leader (Jufri) and a traditional as well as government figure (Sudin Bauw), documentation of community social practices, and content analysis of a BBC News video highlighting interfaith coexistence in Fakfak. Data were analyzed using directed content analysis with predetermined coding categories, namely justice, balance, and tolerance. The findings indicate that the value of justice is implemented through deliberative counseling practices that provide equal participation opportunities for all family members, regardless of religious background or clan affiliation. Balance is reflected in the proportional distribution of family roles and emotional regulation within family relationships. Meanwhile, tolerance is manifested through acceptance of religious differences and the maintenance of kinship ties across faiths. These practices are strengthened by the integration of Islamic values and the philosophy of Satu Tungku Tiga Batu, which functions as an ethical and cultural framework in family guidance. This study concludes that Islamic family counseling in Kampung Patipi Pulau operates contextually through cultural mediation and contributes to the development of culturally grounded religious moderation.

Membawa Masa Lalu ke Masa Kini: Studi Fenomenologis Tentang Ruminasi Terhadap Pengalaman Masa Lalu dalam Mengikat Pola Perilaku Individu
type: item
description: Rumination, defined as repetitive thinking about negative emotional experiences, plays a critical role in maintaining psychological distress and shaping individuals’ behavioral patterns. However, prior research has been predominantly quantitative, offering limited insight into the subjective lived experiences of rumination. This study aims to explore individuals' lived experiences of rumination related to past events and to examine its role in shaping recurring life patterns and its implications for personal potential development. A qualitative phenomenological design was employed, involving four purposively selected participants with experiences of rumination. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and field notes, and analyzed using Colaizzi’s phenomenological method. The findings revealed four major themes: rumination about past trauma, the formation of recurring life patterns, impacts on personal potential, and coping mechanisms. The results indicate that rumination functions as a linking mechanism between past experiences and present responses, forming a maladaptive psychological cycle that sustains negative emotions and constrains individual development. Furthermore, the coping strategies employed by participants were largely insufficient to disrupt this cycle. This study concludes that rumination is a complex phenomenon involving the interaction of cognitive, emotional, and experiential processes, highlighting the need for multidimensional interventions that integrate cognitive, emotional regulation, social, and spiritual components to effectively break recurring patterns and optimize individual potential.

Hubungan Self-esteem dengan Self-presentation pada Remaja Pengguna Instagram
type: item
description: In today's digital era, teenagers are increasingly active in using social media, one of which is Instagram. Teenagers who use Instagram are vulnerable to decreased self-esteem due to social comparison and validation seeking, so they tend to present an ideal and different self to appear attractive. This causes a mismatch between the real self and the self on Instagram, as well as the pressure to always appear perfect. This study aims to analyze the relationship between self-esteem and self-presentation in adolescent Instagram users in Makassar. This study used a quantitative method with 398 adolescents as respondents. The analysis technique used was the Spearman rho correlation test. Based on the results of the data analysis, there was a positive relationship between self-esteem and ideal self, consistent self, and multiple selves, while online presentation preferences were negatively related. This indicates that the higher the level of adolescent self-esteem, the higher the tendency to engage in ideal self, consistent self, and multiple selves on Instagram. However, self-esteem and online presentation preferences had a negative relationship. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of monitoring social media use and strengthening self-esteem so that adolescents are able to understand social pressures on Instagram and present themselves consistently with their personal character.

Faktor-Faktor Penghambat Anak dalam Akses Pendidikan: Studi Kasus pada Keluarga Anak Jalanan
type: item
description: Street children face educational barriers due to socioeconomic pressures, despite parents' positive views of education. This study aims to identify factors inhibiting street children's education, describe parents' efforts to send their children to school, and understand their expectations of sending their children to school. A qualitative approach was applied through a case study design in two street children's families in Makassar City. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and observations, and analyzed following Creswell's data analysis stages. The results show that educational barriers are divided into two categories: internal barriers in the form of low motivation and interest in learning, while external barriers include family factors, economic factors, distance and access to school, the environment and peers, and the pandemic. Despite these obstacles, parents continue to strive for their children's education through hard work, motivation, adaptation to limitations, communication with schools, and seeking help and support. Parents do this because they hope for a better future for their children, and children will avoid social risks, character development, social capital, and improved family conditions. The implications of this study emphasize the need for policies that are more responsive to the conditions of street children and a more flexible and empathetic learning approach.

The Influence of Parenting Patterns and Socioeconomic Status on Self-Confidence and Motivation to Continue learning Among School dropouts
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the effects of parenting styles and socioeconomic status on self-confidence and motivation to continue education among school dropouts in Tanjung Steko Village. The research is motivated by persistently high dropout rates and low willingness among children to re-engage in formal education, which are closely associated with parental roles and family economic conditions. A quantitative causal approach was employed, involving 39 school dropouts selected through total sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability and were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that parenting styles have a significant negative effect on self-confidence because of authoritarian or permissive styles rather than democratic ones. Whereas socioeconomic status has a significant positive effect. Simultaneously, both variables explain 39.1% of the variance in self-confidence and 32.8% of the variance in learning motivation. These findings emphasize that appropriate parenting practices and adequate family economic support play a crucial role in restoring school dropouts’ confidence and motivation to re-enter education.

Strategi Coping Religius Guru Wanita dalam Menghadapi Konflik Peran Ganda
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the form of dual role conflict, the form of religious coping, and the impact of religious coping on female teachers at UPTD SD Negeri 7 Parepare. The research uses a qualitative approach of phenomenology type to understand the experience of female teachers in carrying out their roles as educators and housewives. The research subjects consisted of four female teachers who were selected purposively. Data collection was carried out through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results of the study showed that dual role conflicts include time-based conflict in the form of difficulty dividing time between work and family, behavior-based conflict in the form of difficulty adjusting professional behavior and domestic roles, and strain-based conflict in the form of physical fatigue and emotional stress due to carrying out two roles simultaneously. The forms of religious coping used include benevolent religious reappraisal, collaborative religious coping, seeking spiritual support, religious purification, and spiritual connection. The impact of religious coping is reduced stress and anxiety, increased self-resilience, emotional regulation, inner peace, and better social relationships. This study shows that religious coping plays an important role in helping female teachers cope with dual role conflicts and maintain psychological well-being. Theoretically, this study expands on the concept of religious coping from Kenneth I. Pargament in the context of female teachers in Indonesia, while practically, this research is relevant because the majority of elementary school teachers in Indonesia are women who are vulnerable to multiple role conflicts.

Mitigasi Academic Transition Anxiety Berbasis Sistem Kuliyyatul Mu’allimin al-Islamiyah pada Santri Baru Pesantren Modern
type: item
description: Academic Transition Anxiety (ATA) is a significant psychological phenomenon among new students, particularly in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) environments that require students to adapt to new academic, social, and spiritual systems simultaneously. This study aims to analyze the ATA mitigation strategies based on the Kuliyyatul Mu’allimin al-Islamiyah (KMI) system at the Daarul Huda Banjar Patroman Modern Islamic Boarding School. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation from new students, homeroom teachers, and boarding school administrators. Data analysis employed the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña (2014). The results revealed three main mitigation pillars: (1) adaptive curriculum design through the KMI-national dual curriculum with a gradual language scaffolding strategy; (2) a continuous and personalized academic mentoring system through homeroom teachers and evening study programs; and (3) a comprehensive 24-hour dormitory system integrated with a structured orientation program (Khutbatul Arsy). These findings demonstrate that the KMI system functions not only as a pedagogical framework but also as a holistic ecosystem that supports adaptive psychological management for new students. This research contributes to an empirically based model for ATA mitigation within the context of modern Islamic boarding school education that is culturally relevant and contextually appropriate.

Pengaruh Kecanduan Gadget Terhadap Interaksi Sosial Remaja di SMA
type: item
description: Gadget addiction among adolescents resulting from excessive use can reduce environmental awareness and impact social interaction. This study aims to analyze the effect of gadget addiction on the social interaction of students at Mranggen 1 Public High School using a quantitative ex-post facto method. Data were collected from 177 respondents using a gadget addiction questionnaire based on the theory of Kwon et al. (2013) and a social interaction questionnaire based on the theory of Sarwono (2010), and were analyzed using simple linear regression. The results showed a correlation coefficient of 0.422 and an R² value of 0.178, indicating that gadget addiction accounts for 17.8% of the variation in social interaction. A calculated F-value of 37.026 with a p-value of 0.000 indicates a significant effect. The regression equation Y = 127.986 − 0.508X indicates that an increase in gadget addiction reduces social interaction by 0.508 points per 1-unit increase.

Dinamika Resiliensi dan Stres Pengasuhan pada Orang Tua Anak Berkebutuhan Khusus dalam Konteks Pendidikan Inklusi dan Sekolah Luar Biasa
type: item
description: This study aims to explore the dynamics of parenting stress and family resilience among parents of children with special needs (CSN) in inclusive schools and special schools (SLB) using a qualitative phenomenological approach. The findings show that stress and resilience emerge simultaneously in parenting experiences. In inclusive schools, stress is mainly related to social acceptance, children’s ability to adapt, and academic and social demands. In contrast, in SLB, stress is more focused on the child’s future independence, economic conditions, and long-term caregiving responsibilities. Resilience among parents in inclusive schools tends to be active, reflected in their involvement in school activities, parenting programs, and communication with teachers. Meanwhile, in SLB, resilience is shown through acceptance, emotional adjustment, and realistic expectations regarding the child’s independence. Theoretically, these findings highlight that parenting stress and resilience are dynamic, contextual, and interconnected processes. Practically, differentiated support services are needed to optimally support parents in each context.

Penguatan Karakter Santri di Era Digital Melalui Tradisi Kajian Tafsir Al-Qur’an
type: item
description: The tradition of studying the interpretation of the Qur'an has long been one of the main foundations of pesantren education. Through this tradition, the scientific heritage of Islam continues to be maintained, as well as a means of shaping the character of the students. However, the presence of the digital era brings new challenges that cannot be ignored, especially changes in learning methods and the rush of religious information that does not always have clear authority. This research aims to describe how the tradition of tafsir study is carried out at Pondok Ahlus Suffah Hidayatullah Balikpapan and how this tradition plays a role in shaping the character of students in the midst of the dynamics of today's digital life. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation at Pondok Ahlus Suffah Hidayatullah Balikpapan. The results of the study show that the Islamic boarding school still maintains the tradition of studying tafsir through routine halaqah, reading the book, and fostering adab. The study of tafsir is not only a space for knowledge transfer, but also a process of instilling Qur'anic values such as discipline, simplicity, and responsibility. On the other hand, Islamic boarding schools respond to digital challenges by strengthening digital literacy, limiting the use of gadgets, and selectively utilizing technology as a complement to learning. The findings of this study confirm that the tradition of interpretation studies remains relevant and plays an important role in shaping the character of students. This tradition has proven to be able to adapt wisely to digital developments without losing the scientific spirit and values inherited from generation to generation.

Penghayatan Panggilan Karier (Vocational Calling) pada Dewasa Awal dalam Transisi Karier Menjadi Guru melalui Program Pendidikan Profesi Guru (PPG): Studi IPA pada Peserta PPG
type: item
description: The phenomenon of career transition to the teaching profession through the Teacher Professional Education Program (PPG) is increasingly found among young adults who previously worked in non-educational sectors. This phenomenon is interesting to study because the decision is not always based on economic considerations, but is often related to the search for work meaning and the appreciation of vocational calling. This study aims to understand in depth the process of vocational calling in young adults who choose to transition to teaching through the PPG program. The study used a qualitative approach with an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) design. The study participants were 4 (four) early adults aged 23–35 who were currently attending PPG at the University of Muhammadiyah North Sumatra and had at least one year of work experience outside the teaching profession. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews and analyzed using phenomenological procedures, including bracketing, horizontalization, theme grouping, and synthesis of the meaning of experiences. The research results identified five main themes, namely (1) existential dissonance in previous jobs, (2) critical moments as triggers for career transitions, (3) calling from external-transcendental sources, (4) reorientation of professional identity, and (5) the meaning of the teaching profession as a social contribution and self-actualization. The findings indicate that vocational calling develops as a dynamic psychological process through interactions among value incongruence with previous jobs, meaningful reflective experiences, social support, and the reconstruction of professional identity during PPG. This research broadens the understanding of vocational calling in the context of career transitions. It provides implications for career counseling services in helping individuals find jobs that align with their identity, values, and life goals.

School Culture and the Internalization of Virtue in Free Nutritious Eating Programs (MBG): A Phenomenological Study of the Development of Civilized Behavior Among Students
type: item
description: The Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) not only serves to meet students' nutritional needs but also plays a strategic role in shaping school culture and internalizing the values of virtue. This research aims to examine the role of school culture in supporting the internalization of virtue values through the implementation of the MBG Program, as well as understanding the development of civilized behavior among students. The research uses a qualitative approach with phenomenological methods to explore the experiences and meanings of education actors, including principals, teachers, program managers, school committees, and students at the elementary, junior high, and high school levels in West Java Province. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation studies, then validated through triangulation of sources and techniques. Data analysis employs a phenomenological approach with stages of data reduction, theme encoding, grouping essential meanings, data presentation, and interpretation of participants' experiences. The results of the study show that the MBG Program contributes to the formation of civilized behavior through habituation, example, and strengthening of social norms that are integrated in school culture. Developed virtue values include discipline, responsibility, gratitude, social care, cleanliness, politeness, and respect for food and the environment. Practices such as praying before and after meals, queuing in an orderly manner, eating food according to portions, maintaining a clean dining area, managing waste responsibly, and teacher examples have been proven to strengthen the internalization of these values. The MBG program also encourages the development of students' cognitive, affective, psychomotor, and spiritual aspects in an integrated manner. These findings confirm that the MBG Program has the potential to be an effective means of character education through strengthening school culture and habituat…
