Psikoedukasi Mengantisipasi Toxic Parenting pada Orang Tua TK Pelita Fajar
Orang tua sebagai figur utama yang berperan dalam pengasuhan anak ternyata belum tentu dapat memberikan pengasuhan yang layak. Dewasa ini berkembang istilah toxic parenting, yaitu salah satu jenis pengasuhan yang memiliki dampak negatif terhadap perkembangan anak, dan memiliki ciri-ciri yang bernuansa kekerasan. TK Pelita Fajar adalah salah satu Taman Kanak-kanak di Bandung yang memiliki program pendidikan anak usia dini di jenjang play group, TK A dan TK B. Guna menghindarkan anak dari dampak buruk fenomena toxic parenting, maka TK Pelita Fajar mengadakan acara pembinaan bagi orang tua siswa dengan tema “Mengatasi Toxic Parenting”. Kegiatan dilaksanakan pada hari Jumat, 11 Oktober 2024 pada pk 8.45-10.00, menggunakan metode lecturing, dengan paparan materi, pemutaran cuplikan film dan survey games. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan pemahaman mengenai toxic parenting antara sebelum dan setelah psikoedukasi, yang kemungkinan berkaitan dengan waktu pelaksanaan yang terbatas. Evaluasi teknis menunjukkan bahwa hampir seluruh peserta menilai pelaksanaan psikoedukasi ini baik dan sangat baik, dari sisi metode, materi, narasumber dan interaksi antara narasumber dan peserta. Simpulan dari evaluasi adalah terbatasnya waktu pelaksanaan perlu menjadi perhatian untuk terjadi perubahan dalam pemahaman materi. 
Bibliotherapy: Increasing Understanding of Religious Moderation with Group Counseling
Extreme thoughts about moderate Islam are often the beginning of divisions. A shallow understanding of religious moderation makes it easier for someone to be indicated by radical views. Counselors have an essential role in increasing students' understanding of religious moderation. This study aims to improve students' understanding of religious moderation in public schools through group guidance using bibliotherapy techniques. This study used a quasi-experimental method with a Non-equivalent control group design. The sample of this research was 20 students, consisting of 10 students for each experimental and control group, per Gazda's (1969) recommendations regarding the adequate number of group guidance participants, ranging from 8 to 10 participants. The sample has filled out the Religious Moderation Scale (RMS) developed by Monalisa (2022) and is indicated to be in a low category. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed rank test to determine the effect before and after the intervention was given. Then, to find out the average difference between the experimental group and the control group, it was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test. The study's results showed a difference in understanding of religious moderation before and after the intervention, with a significance of .005. The research results showed that the group guidance intervention using bibliotherapy techniques was effective in increasing students' understanding of religious moderation with a Z score of -3.885 and a significance value of .000
Portraying the Resilience of Adolescents Thriving in Terror-Prone Conflict Zones
Adolescence is an age that is very vulnerable in the development process because adolescents have not yet reached the cognitive and physical maturity of adolescence. At this level, teenagers are very vulnerable to experiencing setbacks, and one of them is due to the terrorist conflict they have experienced. This condition has a huge impact on the life process and mental health problems of teenagers. One of the things needed is for teenagers to become resilient, so they can recover from difficult and risky times. This research aims to examine the portrait of the resilience of teenagers living in areas prone to terrorist conflict. The method used is qualitative descriptive phenomenology. Participants involved 3 teenagers living in terrorist conflict areas who used the snowball sampling technique. The data collection process was carried out through structured interviews. The research results show that in general, resilience in adolescents living in areas prone to terrorist conflict can be achieved.

Exploring the Impact of Secrecy on Marital Happiness: Relationship Authenticity as a Mediator
Studies investigating the correlation between secret-keeping tendencies and partner satisfaction are still relatively scarce. This research seeks to identify the extent to which the inclination to keep secrets can influence marital satisfaction, with the role of relationship authenticity in unravelling the complexity of such interactions. This study explores the relationship between secret-keeping tendencies and marital satisfaction, with relationship authenticity as a mediator. The research employed a quantitative, cross-sectional methodology utilizing The Five-Item Preoccupation Scale, Authenticity in Relationships Scale, and Relationship Assessment Scale. The study involved 2,184 individuals (76.1% female) aged 25 years and above, all married. The finding reveals that relationship authenticity partially mediates the relationship between secret-keeping tendencies and marital satisfaction. The results of this study can serve as a reference for enhancing marital satisfaction by reducing the inclination to keep secrets and thereby strengthening the perception of relationship authenticity
Mindfulness and Anxiety in Adolescents: Systematic Literature Review Based on Big Data
Adolescents are a group of individuals who are vulnerable to experiencing anxiety due to various factors that influence them. Anxiety that occurs in adolescents has several negative impacts on physique, psychology, and self-development of adolescents. If this anxiety is not overcome, it will evoke other symptoms and disorders that are more serious. Because of many negative impacts that arise when adolescents experience anxiety, an intervention is needed to overcome it, one of which can be done with mindfulness. This research uses a systematic literature review method using Publish or Perish software to collect articles from several sources such as Google Scholar, Research Gate, SINTA, DOAJ and Scopus. The keywords used are “mindfulness”, “anxiety”, “kecemasan”, “remaja”, “adolescents” and “teenage”. Based on these keywords, more than 500 articles published in 2019-2024 were found. Next, the researcher used 16 articles that were closely related to this research with a total of samples of 6.034. The research results show that mindfulness has proven effective in overcoming adolescents’ anxiety and there is a negative relationship between mindfulness and anxiety that adolescents who have high mindfulness will have low anxiety and vice versa. There are several programs of mindfulness intervention that can be carried out by adolescents, ranging from formal to informal practices that can be practiced when doing daily activities according to needs, situations and conditions

Smartphone and Self-Harm: A study of TikTok Use as a Risk Factor
In recent years, the use of social media and the internet has become an inseparable part of everyday life, especially among adolescents. Social media offers a variety of benefits, including ease of communication, access to information, and entertainment. However, concerns have emerged about its negative impact on mental health, especially in relation to self-harm behavior. Adolescents often imitate the trend of self-harm and join in posting the results of scratches on social media. The aim of this study was to determine variations in self-harm in adolescents which are related to the duration of internet use in one day and the use of social media. The research method uses a comparative descriptive approach and Two-Way ANOVA analysis to explore interactions between these variables. Data was collected through an online survey with a self-harm instrument consisting of 18 statements, with respondents choosing from 4 alternative answers available. The results of the analysis show that there are significant differences in self-harm behavior based on the duration of internet use per day and the type of social media used. Adolescents who use the TikTok platform show a higher self-harm score compared to other platforms, especially with longer duration of internet use. These findings indicate that the type and way of using social media has a significant influence on self-harm behavior
