Characterization The Flavonoids Extract of Tridax Procumbens l. Leaves and Betel Lime as Materials for Open Wound Analgesic Ointment
Tridax procumbens L. has quite high flavonoid content (6.51%). Flavonoids have antimicrobial effects that can fight bacteria. Besides that, the flavonoid content of T. procumbens leaves as an analgesic inhibits has the potential to be used as an analgesic ointment material for open wounds. Betel lime (CaCO3) also helps speed up the healing of open wounds. This research aims to optimize a mixture of T. procumbens leaves and betel lime to make a material-based herbal ointment that effective in healing open wounds. This research uses quantitative and qualitative approaches. The dependent variables used are the results of FTIR characterization, SEM-EDX, and antibacterial tests. Research results show that the 1:1 ointment sample has the highest homogeneity with an average particle size distribution of 11.95 nm. The weight and total atomic weight of carbon and calcium elements fluctuated with increasing leaf extract concentration, but the 2:1 ointment sample showed a higher calcium element content than the other samples because the amount of whiting was greater than the leaf extract. Flavonoid functional groups were successfully detected, O-H, C-H, and C-O-C. In S. aureus, it was shown that the 1:1 ointment sample was able to inhibit bacterial growth with an inhibition zone diameter of 0.062 to 1.510 cm. In addition, the contents of stigmasterol, β-sitosterol, and n-hexadecanoid acid are the main components that play a role in the inhibitory activity of bacteria.

HOW FRANKL'S MAN'S SEARCH FOR MEANING SHAPES OUR UNDERSTANDING OF LOGOTHERAPY
Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning is a major book in existential psychology, which offers a deep understanding of the human search for meaning during suffering. In this article, I will delve into how and where contemporary psychological practices are greatly impacted by Frankl's logotherapy. The paper commences with an analysis of Frankl’s life and his work within the historical context showing how the experiences he went through in Nazi concentration camps influenced his theoretical perceptions. Furthermore, it looks at some principles of logotherapy such as personal voids and desire for meaning in order to discuss their role in treating trauma and building up people’s resistance power. Lastly, it underscores logotherapy’s amalgamation with other therapeutic modalities, its influence on positive psychology as well as its wider applications within healthcare systems and schools among others. This paper provides a detailed examination of Frankl’s principles that remain very useful in promoting mental healthiness and self-improvement thus affirming how meaningfulness can be used to respond to human pain
Translation Method of Emotional Expression in Daniel Keyes’ The Minds of Billy Milligan
This study examines the English to Indonesian translation of emotional expressions depicted in Daniel Keyes’s novel “The Minds of Billy Milligan” and its Indonesian translation “24 Wajah Billy.” The primary objectives are to describe the emotional expressions portrayed by the main character and to analyze the methods applied in translating these emotional expressions from English to Indonesian. Employing David Krech’s emotional classification theory and drawing on Vinay and Darbelnet’s translation methods, this qualitative descriptive research identifies 28 emotional classification data in the novel. Eight types of emotion classifications were identified, including 13 instances of fear, 6 instances of anger, 3 instances of hate, 2 instances of happiness, 1 instance of pain, 1 instance of guilt and regret, 1 instance of pride and shame, and 1 instance of love. The translation applies six translation methods used in 39 instances borrowing, literal, transposition, modulation, equivalent, and adaptation. Each emotion is translated using different translation methods. The application of these six methods is divided into three variants: single with 18 instances, couplet with 9 instances, and triplet with 1 instance. The literal method is the most frequently used in translating emotional expression. The translation method aims to preserve the essence of the narrative from the source language to the target language
Children’s Plight to Life of Poverty and Injustice Captured in F.H. Batacan’s Smaller and Smaller Circles
This research paper analyzes how children's experiences of poverty and injustice are imagined and articulated in F. H. Batacan's novel Smaller and Smaller Circles. By employing content analysis, passages and excerpts from the novel were identified and subjected to in-depth analysis using sociological and philosophical approaches to literary criticism. The study aims to explore the novel’s portrayal of the causes and effects of these experiences, and how it reflects the broader discourse on the morality of children's suffering. The findings reveal that the novel imagines children's experiences of poverty and injustice as resulting from a complex interplay of societal norms, such as generational responsibility, the culture of silence, and toxic masculinity. Institutional failures, including the church’s complicity, inefficient law enforcement, and barangay deficiencies, further exacerbate these conditions. Additionally, media and societal attitudes, particularly misplaced faith and victim blaming, contribute to the perpetuation of these harmful conditions. The novel portrays these imagined experiences as leading to psychosocial trauma, delayed or denied justice, delinquency, and even suicide. Through this portrayal, the novel positions itself within the discourse on the morality of children's suffering, raising questions about the ethical implications of these societal failures

ASESMEN PSIKOLOGI DAN PELATIHAN BAGI PENDAMPING ANAK DAN REMAJA DARI LINGKUNGAN BERISIKO
Children at risk are children who are vulnerable to losing their rights due to certain conditions in their environment or certain situations in their lives. Children at risk need to receive appropriate assistance to develop adaptive behavior. To provide appropriate assistance, a psychological assessment is needed because most children are at risk of experiencing psychological problems. The results of the assessment showed that forms of psychological problems were found, including difficulty regulating emotions, feeling insecure, negative self-concept, feeling rejected by the environment, lack of familiarity with rules and manners, not knowing what is right and wrong, committing acts of aggressiveness, being undisciplined, experiencing learning difficulties, lack of social skills. Based on these findings, training for at-risk children's companions is provided. There are five training topics, namely creating a supportive and empathetic atmosphere, teaching to act with conscience, basic counseling skills, emotional regulation, and developing social and communication skills in children. The results of the training can provide additional knowledge and skills to caregivers and companions of children at risk at the Dream House
Self Awareness dan Pemaknaan Pengalaman
Dalam pandangan Rogers, setiap orang memiliki potensi untuk menjadi sehat dan tumbuh secara kreatif. Kegagalan dalam mewujudkan potensi disebabkan oleh pengaruh faktor luar seperti pengasuhan orang tua, dan pengaruh sosial lainnya. Namun pengaruh yang merugikan itu dapat dikelola jika individu mampu mengambil tanggung jawab untuk hidupnya sendiri. Dalam banyak kasus, orang menerima begitu saja pengalamannya sebagai representasi yang tepat tentang kenyataan dan tidak mencoba memahami lebih jauh, sehingga menghasilkan konsepsi yang tidak tepat antara diri dan dunia luar. Jika pengalaman yang dilambangkan membentuk diri benar mencerminkan pengalaman maka orang mampu menyesuaikan diri. Ia mampu berpikir realistis. Dalam konteks ini maka self-awareness menjadi salah satu tahap awal bagi individu untuk mengembangkan dirinya.Self-awareness atau kesadaran diri ditandai dengan banyaknya pandangan atau pemikiran (Carden et al., 2022; Kreibich, 2020; Sutton, 2016). Self-awareness mencakup pemahaman yang melibatkan pengetahuan tentang diri dan berkembang melalui proses evaluasi diri (Silvia O’Brien, 2004), refleksi diri (Gardner et al., 2005; Silvia Duval, 2001), dan diekspresikan melalui tubuh (Ladkin Taylor, 2010). Self-awareness merupakan kemampuan individu untuk bisa mengidentifikasi dan memahami dirinya secara utuh, baik dari sifat, karakter, emosi, perasaan, pikiran dan cara adaptasi dengan lingkungan. Dengan adanya self-awareness membuat individu bisa mengenali berbagai potensi dalam dirinya baik kekuatan, kelemahan baik yang berorientasi pada diri (obyektif, inward) maupun keluar/faktor luar (subjektif, outward). Adakalanya self-awareness dikaitkan dengan self-knowledge (pengetahuan diri). Self-knowledge menggambarkan fakta bahwa seseorang memiliki pengetahuan tentang nilai, motif, kekuatan dan kelemahan, sementara self-awareness menggambarkan fakta bahwa seseorang secara berkelanjutan bertanya dan mengevaluasi, merefleksikan kekuatan dan kelemahannya.Wong (2010) meringkas bahwa self-awareness adalah bukan akhir tetapi proses pengembangan untuk memahami kekuatan, kelemahan dan menjadi sadar serta percaya akan perasaan seseorang. Dengan kata lain, konsep self-awareness berfokus pada proses dinamis di mana individu merefleksikan nilai dan mengujinya. Dari sini dipahami bahwa self-awareness tidak sama dengan self-knowledge. Self-knowledge adalah anteseden dari self-awareness. Dalam realitas, orang memahami bahwa pertama-tama, orang memahami nilai, tujuan dulu (memiliki self-knowledge) sebelum mengevaluasi kembali dan mencari umpan balik.Dalam konteks kesadaran peranan self-awareness inilah Suksma: Jurnal Psikologi Universitas Sanata Dharma mencoba memberikan gambaran dalam beberapa studi yang berkaitan dengan kesadaran diri dalam memaknai kecenderungan perilaku yang tidak adaptif (kecenderungan bunuh diri, perilaku seksual), kesadaran diri dalam memaknai diri dan nilai-nilai dalam masyarakat atau budaya berkaitan dengan perilaku nikah siri dan memahami keseluruhan konteks (subjektivitas) dalam perilaku yang terjadi, kesadaran diri dalam memahami kapasitas diri dalam menghadapi perubahan teknologi.Tiga artikel awal menunjukkan minat penelitian yang arahnya mendorong pentingnya self-awareness terhadap diri maupun faktor-faktor yang diperkirakan memengaruhi munculnya perilaku. Artikel pertama melihat bagaimana pemahaman diri dalam mengelola emosi di samping memahami faktor luar dirinya. Artikel ini lebih khusus membicarakan kecenderungan bunuh diri sebagai akibat perundungan/bullying di kalangan remaja yang berkepanjangan. Hasil menyiratkan pentingnya dukungan keluarga, guru dan teman dalam meminimalkan kecenderungan bunuh diri, di samping kemampuan personal seperti komunikasi dan pengelolaan emosi. Artikel kedua berkaitan dengan gambaran distorsi kognitif pada perilaku kekerasan seksual inses, faktor ketidakberfungsian keluarga, relasi seksual, ekonomi sebagai hal yang turut mempengaruhi. Distorsi kognitif yang memengaruhi adalah ketidakmampuan mengendalikan diri, sifat merugikan (hubungan seksual sebagai hal yang tidak berbahaya). Artikel ketiga melihat kesadaran diri terhadap pergeseran nilai-nilai di masyarakat, karena pesatnya perubahan pola pikir dan perkembangan teknologi serta media sosial yang membuat masyarakat menjadi acuh tak acuh terhadap nilai budayanya.Artikel keempat berkaitan dengan human relatedness dalam perilaku membuang sampah. Artikel ini menguji bagaimana kesadaran akan human relatedness dengan lingkungannya dalam perilaku yang terkait. Artikel ke 5 berkaitan dengan bagaimana kesadaran akan diri berkaitan self-efficacy guru yang menggunakan teknologi. Artikel keenam produksi pengetahuan dalam psikologi berhampiran budaya. Artikel ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana kesadaran diri dalam memaknai keseluruhan fenomena yang ditemuinya dan alat metodologisnya. Dinamika subjektivitas didasari oleh hasrat orang lain yang beredar dalam kehidupan sehari-hari dalam bentuk wacana dan mempengaruhi subjektivitas melalui identifikasi dan interpelasi. Penelitian dalam Psikologi yang berubah secara budaya bertujuan untuk menciptakan atau mengkonstruksi dalam arti menghasilkan pengetahuan (baru) melalui membaca atau menafsirkan fenomena. Hal tersebut termasuk benda, tindakan, institusi sosial, peristiwa sosial, berbagai bentuk ucapan termasuk tertulis, visual, lisan, dan sejenisnya, yang kesemuanya dapat diperlakukan sebagai teks sosial dalam arti dunia penanda yang mewakili makna-makna tertentu dalam arti kata yang seluas-luasnya.Secara keseluruhan, artikel artikel dalam edisi kali ini menegaskan pentingnya self-awareness dalam perspektif objektif (ke dalam diri) dan perspektif subjektif (keluar, faktor eksternal) dalam memaknai pengalaman sehingga dapat membawa kehidupan yang lebih baik.
CLASS CONFLICT AND CHANCE IN THOMAS HARDY’S TESS OF THE D’URBERVILLES: A MARXIST INTERPRETATION
This study sets a Marxist lens to explore class conflict and the interplay of fate in Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles. The paper examines Tess’s representation as a victim of the Victorian class system and sexual oppression, investigating whether her tragic downfall results from chance or her subordinate social position. The evolving social statuses of central characters like Tess, Angel, and Alec add various dimensions to the narrative tension of the book. By utilizing the qualitative-descriptive method and Marxist concepts of class conflict and capitalism, the analysis accentuates how economic stability, or the lack thereof, intricately influences personal lives and relationships in Victorian society. Tess exemplifies the oppressed working class, while oppressors like Alec and Angel exercise their predatory dominance over her. Moreover, the research article aims to highlight the pivotal role of fate and chance in shaping Tess’s destiny, with coincidences and unexpected events intensifying her misfortunes. Ultimately, the research paper posits that economic fragility not only subjugates the working class but can also precipitate the downfall of the oppressors themselves
