Self-Activity Among Internal Department Supervisors
The current research aims to identify the level of self-activity and reveal the statistical significance of differences in the level of self-activity according to the two gender variables (male-female) among a sample of male and female supervisors in the Department of Internal Affairs at Wasit University. The research sample consisted of (150) male and female supervisors who were selected using stratified random sampling. To achieve this, the researchers developed a self-activity scale based on the theory of (Roon kurtus, 2012) and consists of (30) items distributed towards three dimensions: (mental activity, emotional activity, physical activity). After that, the research instrument was applied and the psychometric properties of the scale were tested for validity and reliability. Reliability was extracted in two ways: Cronbach's alpha and the test-retest method. The scale's reliability using the test-retest method was (0.86), while the reliability using Cronbach's alpha was (0.83). The research results showed that the supervisors of the internal departments enjoy self-activity and a positive attitude in their job performance, and there are no statistical differences according to gender between males and females. In light of the results shown, the researchers presented a number of recommendations and suggestions.
Highlights:
Supervisors demonstrated high scores across cognitive, emotional, and physical dimensions.
Measurement results exceeded the predefined hypothetical benchmark.
Male and female groups showed comparable patterns in assessed attributes.

Exploring Concepts, Motives and Psychosocial Correlates of Alter Accounts in Indonesia: Menggali Konsep, Motif dan Korelasi Psikososial dari Akun Alter di Indonesia
The rapid development of social media technology allows individuals to present themselves and interact freely. Some people are known to create new identities on social media that differ from their real-life identity, known as alter accounts or “akun alter” in Indonesian. The phenomenon of alter accounts on Indonesian social media is relatively new. Although several studies have been conducted, there has been no review of the existing literature. This narrative review aims to explore in depth the concepts, motives, and psychosocial factors related to the phenomenon of alter accounts on Indonesian social media. A literature search was conducted in the Google Scholar database with keywords related to “alter accounts” and “social media”. In accordance with the inclusion criteria, titles and abstracts obtained from the search were examined and irrelevant articles discarded. A total of 2,380 research articles were found in the initial search, and 30 unique articles were included in the review. This narrative review defines the concept of alter accounts, which had previously not been clearly defined, and examines the motives behind the use of alter accounts. This review also demonstrates how alter accounts, as digital identities, are connected to an individual’s psychosocial factors.
Highlights:
Definition and Novelty: Alter accounts are distinct digital identities on social media, and this review offers one of the first clear definitions in the Indonesian context.
Motives for Use: Users create alter accounts for reasons such as anonymity, self-expression, and escaping real-life social pressures.
Psychosocial Connection: The use of alter accounts is closely linked to individual psychosocial factors, including identity exploration and emotional coping.
Keywords: Alter Accounts, Social Media, Psychosocial, Digital Identit
Emotional Intelligence and Academic Achievement of Psychology Students : Kecerdasan Emosional dan Prestasi Akademik Mahasiswa Psikologi
Student academic achievement is often understood solely as a result of intellectual intelligence. However, success in higher education is also influenced by non-cognitive factors, one of which is emotional intelligence. This study aims to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and academic achievement of Psychology students at University X through a qualitative approach. The case study approach is used to gain a deep understanding of students' subjective experiences in managing emotions, maintaining motivation, and building social relationships within an academic context. Research participants were selected using purposive sampling, consisting of active students who had completed at least four semesters with varying Cumulative Grade Point Averages (CGPA). Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and academic documentation, and then analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The research findings revealed four main themes closely related to students' academic achievement, namely: emotional regulation skills in dealing with academic pressure, intrinsic motivation and perseverance in learning, empathy and social support that strengthen academic networks, and social skills that open up broader academic opportunities. Students with high emotional intelligence have been proven to be more capable of managing stress, maintaining learning motivation, building positive relationships, and performing confidently in academic settings. The integration of these four aspects shows that emotional intelligence is not merely a supplement but an essential foundation in supporting academic achievement. This finding suggests that universities should develop programs to enhance emotional intelligence, including emotion regulation training, peer mentoring, and social skills workshops. Thus, improving emotional intelligence can be an effective strategy to enhance both academic achievement and the professional readiness of Psychology students at University X.
Highlights:
Emotional intelligence strongly supports stress management, motivation, and social relations.
Four key themes: regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills.
Universities should design programs to enhance emotional intelligence.
Keywords: Academic Achievement, Emotion Regulation, Emotional Intelligence, Intrinsic Motivation, Psychology Students

Why Risk Perception Matters: Exploring Internet Altruistic Behavior: Mengapa Persepsi Risiko Penting: Menjelajahi Perilaku Altruistik di Internet
The times have changed the pattern of human behavior, including in the scope of the internet. Along with the development of digital technology, a new phenomenon has emerged that has attracted the attention of researchers, namely Internet Altruistic Behavior (IAB). Internet Altruistic Behavior (IAB) is a form of altruistic behavior that occurs online, where individuals provide assistance to others without expecting direct rewards. Unlimited internet access in digging up information causes risk perception to be very important. Risk perception is an individual's perspective in assessing and understanding the potential losses that may occur in a particular situation. It involves a subjective assessment of the level of that risk to them. Errors in risk perception can make individuals misjudge the level of safety that can affect their decision to participate in altruistic behavior. The research method used in this study is quantitative. The subjects in this study were individuals who actively use the internet with an age range of 17 years - 29 years with a total of 142 subjects. Data were collected using quota sampling technique. The results in this study indicate a significant negative relationship between risk perception and internet altruistic behavior. The results of hypothesis testing obtained a correlation coefficient of r = -0.542 with a significant p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). These results indicate that the higher the risk perception, the lower the Internet altruistic behavior in individuals.
Highlights:
Negative Correlation – Higher risk perception is linked to lower Internet Altruistic Behavior (IAB), as individuals hesitate to help due to perceived risks.
Role of Risk Perception – Misjudging online risks can impact decisions, leading to reduced participation in altruistic acts.
Study Findings – Research on 142 internet users (ages 17-29) using quantitative methods confirms a significant negative relationship (r = -0.542, p = 0.000) between risk perception and IAB.

This research is motivated by technological advances that cause a shift in marketing from offline stores to e-commerce. The ease with which consumers make purchases in e-commerce makes them vulnerable to impulsive buying tendencies, including Gen Z. This study aims to determine the effect of fear of missing out (FoMO) on impulsive buying tendencies in Gen Z. This study uses a non-experimental quantitative method approach. The subjects in this study amounted to 240 Gen Z students in the X department at University X in Surabaya City, Indonesia, with criteria aged 17–22 years, and they are active users of e-commerce. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. The instruments used in this study were the Fear of Missing Out Scale and the Impulsive Buying Scale. The data analysis technique uses a simple linear regression test with the program JASP 0.18.3 for Windows. The results of a simple linear regression test show a significant level of p-value = 0.001 < 0.05, which means there is an influence of fear of missing out on impulsive buying, so the hypothesis proposed in this study can be accepted. Other results show the R-value is 0.359 with an R square value or the coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.129. This value shows the effect of the fear of missing out on impulsive buying by 12%. There is a positive influence of the fear of missing out variable on the impulsive buying variable, meaning that Gen Z is more likely to engage in impulsive purchases when their fear of missing out is greater.
Highlights:
FoMO Drives Impulse Buying – Higher fear of missing out increases impulsive purchases in Gen Z.
Moderate Influence – FoMO explains 12% of impulsive buying tendencies based on R² value.
Significant Effect – Regression analysis confirms a strong link (p = 0.001) between FoMO and impulse buying.
