Perfectionism and Eating Disorder Tendencies In Calorie-Tracking App Users
Full text linkWhile diet and calorie-counting mobile applications can support users in achieving their goals, studies have also highlighted their potential negative impact on eating disorder tendencies. This study examines perfectionism as a possible contributing factor to such tendencies among users of calorie-counting apps. Data were collected over 21 days through voluntary participation, yielding a sample of 83 individuals aged 18–39. Participants completed online self-report questionnaires, including the Indonesian Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (IMPS) and the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26). Results from simple linear regression analysis indicated that higher levels of perfectionism were strongly associated with an increased likelihood of engaging in behaviours linked to eating disorders (β = 0.62, p < .001), with perfectionism emerging as a substantial predictor of these behaviours (R² = 0.38). These findings underscore the need for further research on the psychological impact of calorie-tracking apps and suggest the importance of incorporating design strategies that promote healthier user experiences
Validation of Genderism and Transphobia Scale Indonesian Version: Short Version, Factor Structure, and Reliability
Full text linkThis study aimed to develop a short version of the Genderism and Transphobia Scale (GTS) that is culturally appropriate for the Indonesian context. The GTS is a measuring tool developed by Hill and Willoughby in 2005 to measure transphobia, which is operationalized by the thoughts, feelings, and behavior that someone has toward transgender and gender-diverse people. While the GTS has been validated across various cultural contexts, results have varied. No validation study has been conducted in Indonesia to date. This research consisted of two quantitative studies using a non-random survey design: Study I involved 265 secondary data sources, and Study II involved 109 primary data sources. In Study I, the Indonesian short version of the GTS (GTS-SV) was developed using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Cronbach's alpha reliability testing, and inter-item correlation analysis. Study II evaluated the internal structure of the GTS-SV using the same analytical methods. Findings from both studies supported the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of the GTS-SV. This scale provides a psychometrically sound instrument for assessing transphobia in Indonesia and may support future research and interventions aimed at fostering greater social acceptance of gender-diverse populations
From Stress to Screens: How Internet Use, Loneliness, and Social Media Habits Relate to Cyberbullying Perpetration
Full text linkCyberspace has become essential, offering both benefits and challenges, notably the emergence of cyberbullying. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of cyberbullying perpetration and understand how factors like Problematic Internet Use (PIU), stress, loneliness, social media duration, and frequency of fighting contribute among middle school students. It also examined subjective well-being (SWB). Selected through cluster random sampling, the study involved 768 students (50.5% girls, 49.5% boys) aged 12-16 from 16 middle schools in Bandung City (M age = 14.02). Data collection utilized the General Problematic Internet Use Scale 2 (GPIUS2), stress and loneliness scales, a questionnaire on social media use duration and school fights frequency, Children’s World Subjective Well-Being Scale 5 items (CW-SWBS5), and the Cyberbullying Offending Scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive methods and linear regression. Findings highlighted that mood regulation (p = .028), negative PIU outcomes (p = .003), stress (p = .004), loneliness (p = .003), social media duration (p = .036), and school fights frequency (p = .000) predict cyberbullying. More boys (24.1%) engage in cyberbullying than girls (16.5%). Generally, girls reported lower SWB scores (M = 67.17) than boys (M = 74.59). Parents and teachers should make efforts to prevent both girls and boys from engaging in cyberbullying, in order to help them maintain their SWB at an above-average level
Narrative Review of Parental Leave Policy: How is the Implementation and Impact on Child Development?
Full text linkThe importance of adequate parental leave and childcare policies cannot be overstated, as they provide essential social protection for children and families. While most studies on parental leave policies focus on the impact of childbearing on women’s labour market participation, limited evidence is available regarding their effects on child development and well-being. Adopting a narrative review approach, this study examined the impact of parental leave policies on child development by analysing 10 empirical articles published within the past decade, retrieved from various databases and reviewed using an inductive analysis approach. Findings suggest that parental leave not only enables mothers to provide optimal care and strengthen the mother–child emotional bond but also encourages fathers to take an active role in childcare, which is critical for children’s cognitive and socio-emotional development. These insights highlight the need for policymakers to design inclusive parental leave policies that support both parents in providing the best possible care for their children
Psychometric Properties of the Trail-Making Test in Dementia Population
Full text linkThe trail-making test (TMT) is a commonly used executive function test in various populations worldwide. It is also used to assess the dementia population, who experience impairment in executive function. In Indonesia, the psychometric properties of TMT for local populations have been reported to be satisfactory. However, there was a lack of studies on the validity and reliability of the TMT for the dementia population. In this study, we examined the validity and reliability of TMT and established population-specific norms for dementia. We analyzed data from 71 TMT scores and three other neuropsychological tests (DSST, DS test, and MOCA) to examine its psychometric properties. The internal consistency analysis was used to assess the reliability of the TMT, while the generalized structured component analysis (GSCA) was conducted to examine TMT’s validity in assessing executive function. The reliability test indicated that the TMT has high reliability (ω = 0.639), while GSCA revealed that TMT has high construct validity with three other neuropsychological tests (TMT-A=0.72 and TMT-B=0.573). Additionally, this study provides standardized norms of TMT for the dementia population
Integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Islamic Principles to Foster Psychological and Spiritual Well-Being
Full text linkCognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an established method for treating mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression. However, its Western epistemology may limit cultural resonance for Muslim clients whose worldviews are shaped by Islamic theology. This paper proposes a faith-sensitive therapeutic model that integrates core Islamic concepts, such as sabr (patience), tawakkul (trust in God), muhasabah (self-reflection), and dhikr (remembrance), into CBT’s cognitive and behavioral tools. This spiritually grounded model promotes emotional healing while nurturing resilience and divine consciousness. It offers clinicians a culturally congruent framework that aligns with Muslim identity, values, and belief systems. The model enhances therapeutic alliance and supports both psychological and spiritual well-being. Its novelty lies in harmonizing traditional CBT with Islamic principles to foster deeper and longer-lasting healing
Multisystem Resilience in Disaster Volunteers: A Review of the Literature
Full text linkThere is a growing interest in multisystem resilience within disaster studies; however, the resilience of disaster volunteers remains an underexplored area. This review aims to bridge this gap by analyzing existing studies that examine how internal and external systems influence the psychological resilience of disaster volunteers. Specifically, it addresses the question: How is multisystem resilience conceptualized and supported among disaster volunteers in the existing literature? We applied a narrative review approach and retrieved literature from the Scopus database, covering all available publication years. The analysis was supported by thematic coding using ATLAS.ti software to identify and extract key themes from the selected studies. Out of 602 articles and proceedings screened, only 11 met our inclusion criteria. Findings indicate that, compared to other forms of civic engagement, disaster volunteering is more likely to involve physical and mental health risks. At the same time, it provides opportunities to strengthen well-being and resilience. This review highlights the importance of a multisystem resilience perspective, emphasizing the dynamic interaction between internal and external systems in fostering the resilience of disaster volunteers
The Relationship Between Instagram Photo Activity and Body Dissatisfaction in Emerging Adult Women Mediated by Sociocultural Attitudes
Full text linkBody dissatisfaction is a problem experienced by emerging adult women from various cultures, including those from Asia. The ease of accessing photo-based platforms like Instagram, and sociocultural attitudes may worsen the body image of social media users. Instagram posts can reflect ideal standards that are difficult to attain and the internal or external pressure on women to meet them. This study aimed to measure the role of sociocultural attitudes, i.e., internalization of beauty standards and social pressure, as a mediator of the relationship between Instagram photo activity and body dissatisfaction of women in emerging adulthood. This research involved 311 (M age=21.6, SD=1.87) female Instagram users, aged 18 to 24. This quantitative research used survey as the data collection method and regression with a mediation model for data analysis. Results showed that sociocultural attitudes have a positive role in the relationship between Instagram photo activity and the body dissatisfaction of adult female Instagram users. Future research can incorporate different participant groups and explore alternative models to measure the variables in this study
'When East Meets West': Perception of and Responses to Stigma Among Ethnic Minority Students from Eastern Indonesia in Java
Full text linkEthnic minorities and indigenous people are two of the many groups at high risk of being stigmatized in society because of their identity. Such stigmatization might have diverse psychological and social impacts. This study aimed to explore the perceptions of stigma experienced by ethnic minority students and their responses to it. This study was descriptive qualitative research involving 12 participants aged 18–30 from East Nusa Tenggara and Sulawesi, who had studied and lived in Yogyakarta for at least one year. Thematic analysis with an inductive approach resulted in three grand themes according to research questions: forms of stigma, coping strategies, and efforts to minimize stigma. Findings indicate that the stigma experienced by students was classified as stereotypes and negative treatment in both academic and non-academic contexts. Participants' responses to cope with the stigma were mainly related to four types of coping: problem-focused, emotion-focused, cognitive coping, and avoidance. There are three key areas of improvement that can reduce the occurrence of stigma in ethnic minority groups, namely self-development, relationship development, and institutional development (e.g., education and community). This research provides insights for key stakeholders, such as families, educational and youth institutions, and the media, to formulate interventions aimed at reducing stigma that may have negative psychosocial impacts on individuals and groups at both the individual and community levels
Parental Consideration of Children’s Futures: Indonesian Adaptation of the Parenting-Related CFC Scale
Full text linkThe Parenting-adapted Consideration of Future Consequences (pCFC) scale is a relatively recent instrument developed to assess time orientation in parenting decision-making. However, it had not previously been adapted for use in the Indonesian context. This study aimed to develop an Indonesian version of the pCFC and to evaluate its validity and reliability among Indonesian parents. The adaptation process followed a six-stage procedure: pre-condition, test development, confirmation, administration, scoring and interpretation, and documentation. Data from 197 parents of children aged 3–6 years were analysed using item factor analysis (IFA) to examine internal structure and McDonald’s omega to estimate internal consistency. Results supported the original two-factor model, distinguishing between future-oriented and immediate-oriented perspectives. After removing one low-performing item, the final Indonesian version comprised 13 items with significant factor loadings and acceptable model fit. Reliability estimates indicated satisfactory internal consistency for both the future-oriented factor and the total scale score. However, the immediate-oriented factor demonstrated lower reliability, warranting cautious interpretation of its scores. Overall, these findings provide preliminary support for the use of the Indonesian pCFC scale in assessing how parents weigh short- and long-term consequences in their parenting decisions. Recommendations for enhancing the psychometric quality of the immediate-oriented factor are also discussed
