GAMBARAN BODY IMAGE, MINORITY STRESS, DAN GAY COMMUNITY STRESS LAKI-LAKI HOMOSEKSUAL DI JAKARTA
This study explores the experiences of body image, minority stress, and gay community stress among homosexual men in Jakarta. Previous research suggests that homosexual men are more vulnerable to developing negative body image, with their sexual identity and involvement in the gay community creating additional layers of complexity in this process. Employing a qualitative approach with thematic analysis, data were gathered through semi-structured face-to-face interviews with four participants in their early twenties, all of whom identified as homosexual men over the age of 18 and represented diverse social backgrounds and community experiences. The findings show that body image formation is shaped by minority stress and gay community stress, both of which reinforce the idealization of masculinity. Minority stress stemmed from heteronormative cultural pressures that position masculinity as the normative ideal, while gay community stress originated within the community itself, where masculine bodies are often valued as the primary marker of social and sexual desirability. This dual pressure to appear masculine generated internal conflict which, when unmet, resulted in anxiety, feelings of undesirability, and negative self-evaluations about their physical appearances, further intensified by social media and dating applications. These findings highlight the importance of addressing the psychosocial experiences of homosexual men to inform more inclusive interventions.

PERAN GRIT DALAM MEMPREDIKSI STRES AKADEMIK MAHASISWA PADA TAHAP PENYUSUNAN SKRIPSI
This study aims to examine the role of grit on academic stress among final-year students in Indonesia. In this study, the researcher employed a quantitative method with regression analysis. The measurement tools used were the Skala Stres Akademik and Skala Grit. The sample consisted of 297 students currently working on their theses, selected through non-probability sampling techniques. The findings show that grit significantly predicts academic stress. This indicates that grit helps students develop a more positive perception of academic stressors and serves as a psychological resource that enables them to remain diligent and resilient in facing the challenges of thesis writing. For future research, it is recommended to explore the strongest predictors or correlations between factors influencing grit and levels of grit.
PERAN SELF-COMPASSION TERHADAP LONELINESS PADA DEWASA AWAL PASCA PUTUS CINTA DALAM HUBUNGAN BERPACARAN
Loneliness may arise after an individual experiences a breakup, characterized by feelings of sadness, melancholy, loss of motivation, and low self-esteem. One factor that can reduce loneliness is self-compassion, namely, a kind and understanding attitude toward oneself when facing suffering. This study aims to examine the role of self-compassion in loneliness among early adults after a breakup in a romantic relationship. The research employed a quantitative approach involving 210 participants aged 20–40 years who had experienced a breakup within the past two weeks to five months, selected using purposive sampling. The instruments used were the Self-Compassion Scale (Neff, 2003) and the UCLA Loneliness Scale Version 3 (Russell, 1996). Validity and reliability were assessed using the Rasch model, which showed that the scales had good validity and reliability. The data were collected through an online questionnaire and analyzed using simple linear regression. The results indicated that self-compassion had a significant and negative role in loneliness. It means higher self-compassion contributed to lower loneliness. This study recommends developing psychological interventions on self-compassion to reduce the emotional impact of a breakup.
Penerimaan Diri dan Kepuasan Pernikahan pada Orang Tua dari Anak Penyandang Autisme
Parents of children with autism often experience lower levels of marital satisfaction. Achieving marital satisfaction is challenging, as it develops over a long period of time. Many studies indicate that self-acceptance is among the key factors associated with marital satisfaction. However, further research is needed to better understand the relationship between these two variables, particularly given the unique challenges faced by families raising children with autism. This study aims to examine the relationship between self-acceptance and marital satisfaction among parents of children with autism. A quantitative approach with correlational explanatory design was employed. Data was collected using convenience sampling, involving 24 married couples who have children with autism. The results showed no significant relationship between self-acceptance and marital satisfaction of parents of children with autism. Further research is recommended to explore additional variables that may mediate the relationship between self-acceptance and marital satisfaction.
Prediksi Attitude, Subjective Norms, Perceived Behavioral Control, dan Persepsi Resiko terhadap Intensi untuk Berinvestasi di Mata Uang Kripto
Crypto currency is a digital-based asset that functions as an investment instrument, a means of depositing money, and a medium for transfers through virtual networks. The rapid growth in the value of crypto currencies has increased interest among potential investors and attracted media attention to crypto currency investments. However, there is limited information whether the public is fully aware of the risks or dangers associated with investing in crypto currencies. This study aims to identify predictors of individuals’ intentions to invest in crypto currencies. The research utilized a quantitative approach with a correlational design and was analysed using multiple regression techniques. The characteristics of the participants were as follows: residents of the Greater Jakarta area (Jabodetabek), aged 18 to 21 years, having heard of crypto currency investment methods, never having invested in crypto currencies, and not currently bearing the daily expenses of others. Participants were selected using a convenience sampling technique, resulting in a total of 159 respondents. The findings show that perception of risk and attitude do not significantly predict investment intentions. However, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control significantly predict individuals’ intentions to invest in crypto currencies. Among these, perceived behavioural control was found to be the strongest predictor of individuals’ intentions to invest in crypto currencies.
PENGETAHUAN GURU PUSAT KEGIATAN BELAJAR MASYARAKAT X MENGENAI PESERTA DIDIK BERKEBUTUHAN KHUSUS
The Community Learning Activity Centre (Pusat Kegiatan Belajar Masyarakat/PKBM) is a non-formal educational institution that provides a 12-year basic education equivalent. PKBM X in Jakarta has students with special educational needs. As an inclusive PKBM, teachers are expected to have knowledge about students with special educational needs (PDBK). Learning at PKBM X is reportedly suboptimal due to a lack of teacher knowledge about PDBK. Therefore, it is important to assess the basic knowledge that PKBM X teachers have about PDBK. The teacher knowledge measured in this study is based on knowledge and basic-level cognitive processes in Bloom's Taxonomy. This descriptive quantitative study involved 58 teachers from ten PKBM X branches in Indonesia. The measuring instrument is a questionnaire about teachers' knowledge. The results showed that 55.17% of teachers had insufficient knowledge, 31.03% had sufficient knowledge and just 13.79% had a good grasp of the subject. This insufficient knowledge was mainly related to strategies for handling PDBK, with an average score of 48.85%. The same applies to the application domain in Bloom's Taxonomy, where the average knowledge is 51.47%. It is suspected that the PKBM X teachers' lack of knowledge stems from inadequate training in PDBK.
Hubungan Antara Psychological Hardiness dan Acculturative Stress pada Mahasiswa Indonesia yang Merantau ke Luar Negeri
Indonesian students studying abroad often face various challenges during their adaptation process, which can lead to acculturative stress. Psychological hardiness is a key factor that may help reduce this stress. It is a personality trait that enables individuals to cope with stress by viewing challenges as opportunities for growth and maintaining commitment and control in difficult situations. This study aimed to examine the relationship between psychological hardiness and acculturative stress among Indonesian students abroad. A quantitative method with correlational analysis was used, involving 140 Indonesian students who had been studying abroad for no more than two years as of October 2024. Data were collected using the Hardiness Scale and the Acculturative Stress Scale for International Students (ASSIS). The results revealed a negative correlation (-.313) between psychological hardiness and acculturative stress. Specifically, the control (-.358) and challenge (-.321) dimensions of psychological hardiness were also negatively correlated with acculturative stress. These findings suggest that students with higher psychological hardiness perceive themselves as capable of managing their environment and see change as a positive experience, which reduces stress. Future research is recommended to further explore the role of psychological hardiness in reducing acculturative stress among international students.
Gambaran Resiliensi Remaja Akhir Laki-Laki Yang Pernah Mengalami Perundungan Di Sekolah
Bullying is a common phenomenon among adolescents, particularly in school settings. It involves acts of violence against individuals perceived as weaker within the school environment. Victims of school bullying may experience lasting negative effects that persist into late adolescence. Resilience, the ability to navigate and recover from difficult experiences, plays a crucial role in helping individuals cope with adversity. Research has identified differences in resilience between males and females, but there is limited exploration of resilience specifically in late adolescent males who have experienced bullying in schools. This study aims to examine resilience among late adolescent males who have faced bullying in schools. Using a qualitative approach with a thematic reflexive analysis, data was collected through semi-structured interviews with three late adolescent male participants, and then analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that all three participants demonstrate resilience in their current lives, reflected in key aspects such as emotional regulation (managing emotions effectively), impulse control (restraining harmful impulses), optimism (maintaining positive expectations for the future), causal analysis (recognizing bullying as a result of power imbalance), empathy (understanding the emotions of others), self-efficacy (confidence in their own abilities), and reaching out (taking initiative to achieve results). Additionally, social support played a significant role in fostering resilience among the participants.

Kontribusi Organizational Commitment dan Perceived Organizational Support terhadap Organizational Citizenship Behavior pada Karyawan Generasi Milenial
Technological advancements in Society 5.0 have integrated humans with technology, encouraging millennials to prioritize their careers, maintain work-life balance, and pursue growth. A study involving 198 millennial employees (aged 24–43, each with at least two years of full-time work experience) investigated the impact of organizational commitment and perceived organizational support on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). The results showed that while affective commitment and perceived organizational support significantly influenced OCB, continuance and normative commitments did not. These findings suggest practical implications for organizations seeking to enhance OCB among millennial employees. Specifically, developing targeted programs to strengthen affective commitment and enhance perceived organizational support – by making it more tangible and impactful for employees – can serve an effective strategy for fostering positive organizational behavior.
HUBUNGAN FUTURE TIME PERSPECTIVE DENGAN CAREER MATURITY PADA MAHASISWA TINGKAT AKHIR
Final-year higher education students often face career challenges. Career maturity refers to an individual’s readiness to make informed career choices, encompassing all the processes, knowledge, and skills needed to complete career developmental tasks. It is essential for final-year students to achieve career maturity, considering they are nearing the end of their education and transitioning into the future world of work. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between future time perspective and career maturity. Future time perspective refers to the extent to which an individual perceives the future according to his or her needs and goals, thus influencing current thoughts, behavior, and decision making. This correlational study, conducted on 166 final-year students in Surabaya selected via incidental sampling. Using the Future Time Orientation Scale and a career maturity scale, Kendall’s Tau-B formula showed that future time perspective was positively related to career maturity. The higher the levels of future time perspective, the higher the levels of career maturity, and vice versa. This suggests final-year students who prioritize future goals are more likely to actively prepare for and achieve career maturity.
Prediksi Gratitude terhadap Body Image pada Remaja di Indonesia
Body image is a critical aspect of adolescent development because the physical changes often trigger feelings of dissatisfaction, which increase the risk of developing a negative body image. A negative body image can lead to various adverse effects, such as feelings of inferiority, difficulty in self-acceptance, and even mental health problems. These can be mitigated by fostering a more positive body image through the practice of gratitude. High levels of gratitude can help adolescents accept their bodies better by focusing on positive aspects. Therefore, this study aims to examine the predictive role of gratitude on body image among adolescents. This quantitative study involved 455 adolescent participants aged 13-18 years residing in Indonesia. Data were collected using a non-probability sampling technique, specifically convenience sampling. The instruments used were the Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire-Appearance Scales (MBSRQ-AS) and the Skala Bersyukur Indonesia (SBI). This study employed a correlational design with simple linear regression statistical techniques for data analysis. The research results indicate that gratitude can significantly predict body image in adolescents. Additional findings reveal a negative relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and body image. To gain a deeper understanding of these two variables, future researchers may consider external factors that can influence body image, such as social media, family, or peers.
Hubungan Antara Grit dengan Hope pada Siswa SMK Negeri 6 Surakarta
This quantitative study aims to examine the relationship between grit and hope among students at State Vocational School 6 Surakarta. Sampling was conducted using a purposive sampling method, involving 232 eleventh-grade students as participants. The dependent variable, hope, was measured using an adaptation of the Adult Hope Scale, while the independent variable, grit, was measured using the Short Grit Scale (Grit-S). Hypothesis testing was performed using the Pearson product-moment correlation method. The results showed a significant correlation, indicating a positive relationship between grit and hope. This suggests that higher levels of grit are associated with higher levels of hope among students, and vice versa. However, the strength of this relationship is classified as moderate. Additional analysis revealed a significant difference in the average hope scores between students in the accounting major and those in the Film Production major. While this study contributes to the growing body of literature on hope and grit among vocational high school students, several research limitations need to be taken into consideration.
Gambaran Toxic Masculinity dan Kecenderungan Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) pada Remaja Laki-Laki
Masculinity is often associated with social expectations requiring men to be resilient, strong, and determined. However, these expectations can create social pressures leading to toxic masculinity, which increases the risk of mental health issues such as a tendency toward Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD). BDD is characterized by an exaggerated perception of minor or non-existent flaws in one’s appearance. This study aims to explore toxic masculinity and the tendency toward BDD in male adolescents. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using structured interviews conducted on high school boys aged 17–18. Three participants were selected based on CMNI-46 screening scores above 119 to ensure they represent the targeted masculinity characteristics. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis, maintaining integrity through triangulation. The findings reveal toxic masculinity and BDD tendencies in male adolescents, shaped by traditional masculinity expectations emphasizing dominance, emotional suppression, and avoidance of vulnerability. Pressure to meet standards, such as achieving an ideal physical image, triggers compulsive behaviors, anxiety, and social isolation, negatively impacting mental health. Factors such as family, culture, social media, religion, economy, and birth order influence masculinity perceptions. The study underscores the need for education and further research to create safe spaces for boys to express emotions without stigma and provide adequate psychological support.

Gambaran Status Identitas Remaja di Persekutuan Remaja Gereja "F"
Adolescence is a crucial phase for identity formation, requiring proper guidance to avoid confusion or inappropriate development. The Youth Fellowship at Church "F" seeks to assess the identity status of adolescents they mentor to create tailored programs. This study used a descriptive quantitative approach with 40 participants aged 13-16 from the fellowship. Data were collected using The Revised Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status, validated for reliability and contextual relevance. The study revealed that none of the adolescents had achieved identity achievement status. Most were in the diffusion status for both ideological (career, religion, politics, and philosophy) and interpersonal (friendships, partnerships, gender roles, and recreation) aspects. Adolescents in this status showed limited desire to explore or commit to these areas. Additionally, some adolescents were in foreclosure status, characterized by identity development shaped by external influences like parents or schools without personal exploration. The findings highlight the importance of mentors addressing the needs of adolescents at all identity statuses. Special attention is recommended for those in foreclosure status, as their identity development may lack the autonomy required for healthy growth. Tailored mentoring programs should encourage exploration and self-discovery to support identity development effectively. These results provide valuable insights for designing programs that cater to the unique developmental needs of adolescents in the Youth Fellowship at Church "F."
RESILIENSI PADA PERAWAT ONKOLOGI RUMAH SAKIT KANKER X YANG PERNAH MENGALAMI COMPASSION FATIGUE
The continuous workload and emotional burden experienced by oncology nurses at Hospital X can lead to compassion fatigue as a side effect of their work. The impacts include demotivation, low quality of care, and even risks to patient safety. This study aimed to examine the resilience process from compassion fatigue experienced by oncology nurses using qualitative methods. The researcher conducted semi-structured interviews with three nurses with different lengths of experience as oncology nurses. The results of this study showed that all three participants had achieved resilient reintegration with different ways to process it. The emotional burden due to the holistic issues of patients and their families and the complexity of care were the primary factors contributing to compassion fatigue. The research findings can be used to design preventive and remedial efforts to improve nurses' emotional and psychosocial well-being.
REPRESENTASI SOSIAL TENTANG GANGGUAN JIWA PADA MASYARAKAT YANG INGIN MENCARI BANTUAN PSIKOLOGIS FORMAL (STUDI PADA MASYARAKAT BANTEN YANG RELATIF MODERN)
Banten is one of the provinces that ranks first in health centers that organize mental health efforts. In Banten Province, the prevalence of patients with mental disorders who received treatment and were not abandoned was only 32.16%. With adequate knowledge and access to mental health services, there is no behavior to seek formal psychological help in there. This study aims to understand the meaning of mental disorders in Bantenese society using social representation theory with a structural approach and divided into two stages. The first stage aims to find the attributes of social representations of mental disorders using the word association method. There were 172 participants who participated in the first stage with a total of 929 responses. The categorization process was carried out, and 36 categories were obtained. Content analysis resulted in a Cohen's Kappa value of .588. The second stage aims to map the central core and peripheral attributes using the double denial technique. Results from 181 participants were tested with chi-square goodness of fit expected frequency. The social representation of mental illness in Banten society includes 17 attributes, 12 attributes of central core elements, and five attributes of peripheral elements. The results showed that Banten people have sufficient knowledge related to mental illness and sources of help. However, people still have negative views, concerns, cost considerations, feelings of helplessness, and confidentiality issues. Psychoeducation can be recommended as an intervention to increase public knowledge and shake abnormal and crazy attributes in peripheral elements.
GAMBARAN ACTIVE PROCRASTINATION PADA MAHASISWA YANG SEDANG MENGERJAKAN SKRIPSI
Completing a thesis is a key requirement for undergraduate students, but the process often presents various challenges. In response, some students engage in maladaptive behaviors such as procrastination. While traditionally viewed as detrimental, recent studies have identified a positive form of procrastination called active procrastination. This involves intentionally delaying tasks, feeling motivated under time pressure, meeting deadlines, and achieving satisfactory results. Active procrastination can serve as a productive strategy with potential benefits for undergraduates. This study explored the prevalence and levels of active procrastination among thesis-writing undergraduates. Data were collected from 298 students across universities in Indonesia using convenience sampling. The Active Procrastination Scale-Bahasa Indonesia by Purwanto and Natalya (2019) was employed to measure active procrastination. Findings revealed that thesis students generally exhibit low levels of active procrastination. Additionally, no significant gender differences were observed. The study also found significant correlations among the dimensions of active procrastination. These results suggest that promoting active procrastination may help students adopt a more adaptive approach to managing thesis-related challenges.
HUBUNGAN ANTARA ACADEMIC SELF-EFFICACY DENGAN CAREER ADAPTABILITY PADA MAHASISWA TINGKAT AKHIR DI JAKARTA
One of the major problems in Indonesia is the high unemployment rate, including among undergraduates. In 2023, the undergraduate unemployment rate was approximately 958,000, or 12% of the total rate. Several factors affect an individual's ability to get a job. One of them is career adaptability, the process of achieving career goals that needs to be developed since undergoing education, especially in final-year students. However, little effort has been made to improve students' career adaptability, such as academic self-efficacy. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between academic self-efficacy and career adaptability in final-year students in Jakarta. A correlational quantitative method was applied to 121 final-year students in Jakarta obtained through convenience sampling techniques. The measuring tool used to measure academic self-efficacy is The Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (TASES) which has gone through a validity test with a corrected-item total correlation score in the range of .384-.602 and Cronbach's alpha reliability score of .885. Meanwhile, the measuring tool for career adaptability is the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) with validity test results in the range of .322-.652 and a reliability score of .905. Based on the results of the correlation test with Spearman's correlation, there was a significant positive relationship between academic self-efficacy and career adaptability in final-year students in Jakarta, with a Spearman's Rho score of .636, p-value < .01. It can be concluded that the higher the academic self-efficacy, the higher the career adaptability of final-year students. Self-confidence in academic ability helps individuals prepare for future careers.
ANALISIS ASPEK VICTIM ATTRIBUTION PADA REINFORCER BYSTANDER DALAM CYBER BULLYING KALANGAN GENERASI Z
In cyber bullying cases, there are three categories of parties involved, such as perpetrators, victims, and bystanders. This study analyzed the overview of victim attribution in reinforcer bystanders involved in cyberbullying incidents among Generation Z. This study uses qualitative methods with a semi-structured interview. The study shows that individuals’ perspectives on tolerating cyberbullying events vary. The four participants who were bystanders in the cyberbullying showed both victim attribution aspects, which are dehumanization and attribution of blame. Participants tend to blame the victim when they think that the victim is at fault. Therefore, in certain cases of cyberbullying, participants tend to normalize or consider it appropriate for cyberbullying to occur.

This quasi-experimental study assessed the effectiveness of the Montessori method on early literacy skills among Group B students at TK Bahtera Bukit Zaitun and compared outcomes with conventional teaching methods. The sample consisted of 28 students aged 5–6, divided into experimental and control groups. The Montessori apparatus included large movable alphabets, sandpaper letters, and reading boxes, with the study conducted from April to June 2024. Pretests and post-tests measured alphabet knowledge, phonemic awareness, and grapheme-phoneme correspondence. Results showed significant improvement in the experimental group, with median scores increasing from 2.5 to 3.8 and mode from 1.4 to 3.8. The Mann-Whitney U test yielded a p-value of .003, and the gain score analysis showed a p-value of 0.001 with a biserial rank coefficient of .7, confirming the Montessori method's effectiveness. It is recommended that kindergarten teachers incorporate phoneme-based approaches in literacy instruction, as these methods proved particularly helpful for students struggling with alphabet memorization.
PERAN ACADEMIC SELF-EFFICACY DAN PEER SUPPORT TERHADAP ACADEMIC BURNOUT MAHASISWA PENULIS SKRIPSI
Completing a thesis is a major academic milestone but often leads to fatigue, stress, and academic burnout. This study examined the roles of academic self-efficacy (an internal factor) and peer support (an external factor) in academic burnout among 7th-semester psychology students completing a 3.5-year thesis at Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia. The study used a quantitative predictive design with 61 participants from the 2020 cohort. Data were collected using the Maslach Burnout Inventory–Student Survey (MBI-SS), The Academic Self-efficacy Scale, and the Peer Support Scale. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to assess the relationships among the variables. Results indicated that academic self-efficacy and peer support together significantly influenced academic burnout. Academic self-efficacy showed a significant negative contribution, while peer support had a negative but nonsignificant effect. Burnout levels among participants ranged from moderate to low, while academic self-efficacy and peer support levels were high. Future research could explore the relationship between 3.5-year thesis completion and positive psychological variables related to academic achievement at the Faculty of Psychology, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia.
GAMBARAN CAREER ADAPTABILITY PADA KARYAWAN DI JABODETABEK
Career adaptability has become a crucial topic, particularly for young people navigating dynamic market changes and workplace challenges while pursuing their dream jobs. These factors heavily influence how individuals plan and build their careers, underscoring the importance of career adaptability—an individual's capacity to manage current and future tasks, job role changes, and transitions at work, all of which significantly affect their lives. This study examined the career adaptability of 307 employees aged 17–60 in the Jabodetabek area using a quantitative approach and descriptive analysis. Data were collected with the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale Indonesian Form (CAAS-Indonesian Form). The results indicated that the four dimensions of career adaptability—concern, control, curiosity, and confidence—were at moderate levels. Additionally, a positive correlation was observed between career adaptability and job satisfaction. Future research should explore the relationship between job satisfaction and career adaptability in greater detail.
RESILIENSI IBU BEKERJA YANG MEMILIKI ANAK DENGAN GANGGUAN PENDENGARAN
Parents of hearing-impaired children have various challenges that can cause stress. As they work, these challenges may increase. However, they must still be able to facilitate optimal care for their child’s development, especially at the age of 5-12, because children start to enter social environments.

GAMBARAN GRIT PADA MAHASISWA PENDIDIKAN PROFESI DOKTER PERGURUAN TINGGI NEGERI (PTN) DAN PERGURUAN TINGGI SWASTA DI INDONESIA
Medical professional students have responsibilities, such as facing unpredictable real situations, large numbers of patients, uncooperative patients, and difficulties with the diseases they treat. The number of responsibilities can cause emotional exhaustion, stress, and burnout for medical students. To overcome this, medical students need a “Grit”. Grit is the desire of oneself to achieve long-term goals accompanied by high perseverance and consistency of interest in these goals. This study uses a quantitative approach with a descriptive research design. The population of this study were medical professional education students in Indonesia. This study used a non-probability sampling technique with convenience sampling. The sample size used was 120 participants. The results of this study are professional medical education students have a high grit score (91.67%). Based on the dimensions of consistency of interest and perseverance of effort, the majority of medical professional students have high scores on both dimensions. In this study, the most selected internal factor was "Purpose" (27.2%), while the external factor was "Parenting" (36.67%). A recommendation for future research to conduct mixed method research to examine the topic of grit and its factors more elaborately in order to determine its influence on individuals.
STUDI KASUS: COGNITIVE BEHAVIOR THERAPY UNTUK MENGURANGI KECENDERUNGAN KECEMASAN SOSIAL PADA SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR
Excessive feelings of fear characterize students with social anxiety and worry and avoidance of social situations, especially in the school environment. Students quickly feel nervous and anxious when they are in a crowded environment or public place, such as avoiding appearing in front of the class, not daring to refuse or reprimand others, speaking in a low voice, not daring to answer or ask questions, not looking the other person in the eye, and being afraid. Others poorly view them. This case study involves a fifth-grade elementary school (Sekolah Dasar/SD) student who has experienced social anxiety for the past year. The subject feels uncomfortable in crowded places and has negative thoughts about other people's views of him. Assessment is carried out by observation, interviews, psychological tests (WISC, CSCT, graphic), and the Liebowitz social anxiety scale. The intervention provided to reduce social anxiety in subjects used a cognitive-behavioral approach, namely, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, carried out for nine sessions. The intervention results showed that the subjects could identify irrational thoughts and change them to be more rational, decreasing anxiety levels when appearing in front of the class and interacting with other people in the class and school environment according to the predetermined intervention targets.

I KNOW THEREFORE I ACT: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AWARENESS AS A PREDICTOR OF MINDFUL CONSUMPTION
The impact of non-sustainable lifestyle has increasedly being noticed and more attention are nowadays drawn toward the notion of establishing a more responsible consumption behaviour, mindful consumption is a form of that behaviour. The involvement of individuals, especially the younger generation, is much needed to meet the sustainable development goals of a nation, since it is not the responsibility of the government alone. People should have the notion that their independent participations in the areas of economic, societal and environmental activities will benefit the whole nation. Therefore, the aim of this study is to verify that individual awareness of their contribution to sustainable development will predict mindful consumption. A survey was conducted on 153 young adult participants who are university students, aged between 18 to 25 living in Jabodetabek area. The results show that sustainable development awareness in general significantly predicted mindful consumption, as individuals’ awareness of their role in sustainable development increase, so does their mindful consumption. Further analysis find that the economic dimension of sustainable development awareness is the strongest predictors of mindful consumption, followed with the society dimension. However, the environment dimension of sustainable development awareness does not seem to contribute as a significant predictor of mindful consumption. This study gives rise to an implication that sustainable development awareness should be included in the education of the public in general, specifically for young people, in the hope that it will encourage more mindful consumption pattern of the people to support sustainable development of a country.
