Guiding the Path: Exploring the Contribution of Career-Specific Parenting Practices on Career Decision Self-Efficacy among Vocational High School Students
Development of a Model for Social Conflict Intentions in Urban Communities as Early Warning Systems
Social conflict in Indonesia is caused by stereotypes, social identity and prejudice. This issue prompts research aimed at developing a model for the intention of social conflict in urban communities with predictors of stereotypes, social identity, and prejudice as early warning systems. This research refers to both correlational and sequential models. The study subjects were high school students in Sebatik, Nunukan, North Kalimantan. The sampling technique employed was quota-cluster random sampling, resulting in the participation of 108 adolescents. Data collection utilized scales for stereotypes, social identity, prejudice, and social conflict intention. Data analysis was conducted using structural equation modeling, specifically confirmatory factor analysis. The results indicate that the model for the intention of social conflict in urban communities meets the criteria for goodness-of-fit statistics, as evidenced by the values of chi-square=44.1, df=59, P value=0.92543, and RMSEA=0.000. Based on the research findings, stereotypes and social identity shape prejudice, thereby reinforcing the intention of social conflict in urban communities
Positive Framing: Does It Work for Promoting Healthier Food Choice?
The increase in overweight and obesity in Indonesia, along with its negative impact on individual health, such as the risk of chronic diseases and reduced life expectancy, cannot be separated from unhealthy food choices. Unhealthy food choices can negatively impact health, including increasing the risk of overweight and obesity. The aim of this study is to investigate potential differences in the impact of positive message framing on healthy eating behavior. The sample of this study involved student participants aged 18-24 years. This study used an experimental design. In this study, participants were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group was given positive framing messages, while the control group did not receive any framing messages. Participants conducted a shopping simulation in a virtual supermarket using virtual reality devices. After that, the participants' food choices and shopping scores were analyzed. The results of this study show a significant difference in food choices between participants given positive health cues framing and those who were not. This means that participants in the experimental group who received positive framing messages had healthier food choices than the control group. The use of positive framing strategies, such as through posters, can be effective in promoting healthy eating behavior. The implications of this study provide insights to the community that positive framing messages can be an influential way to encourage healthy eating behavior among the publicKeywords: positive framing; food choice; positive framing messages; healthy food choices
The Indonesian Career Literacy Scale: The Early-Stage Development and Validity of the Indicators
Career literacy is an important factor that supports individuals in setting career goals and making career decisions. To assess the level of individuals’ career literacy, a valid measurement that can describe the true literacy level is needed. However, so far there are no tools to assess career literacy levels among adolescents in Indonesia. The study aims to validate the behavioural indicators of a career literacy scale for Indonesian adolescents. The research involved five experts in career development and psychometry. The data collected through the questionnaire contains 50 behavioural indicators of the career literacy scale that was analyzed through V Aiken’s formula. The results revealed that all indicator have V coefficient ranging from 0.40 – 1.00. The 24 selected indicators consist of three indicators in each aspect of the concepts dimension and five indicators in each aspect of the skills dimension as the indicators of the Indonesian Career Literacy Scale. Therefore, the career literacy construct identified in a study in USA is also relevant for Indonesians and can be used in developing the Indonesian Career Literacy Scale
The Analysis of FoMO Behavior Based on Levels of Self-Esteem and Self-Concept: A Study among University Students
The purpose of this study is to examine FoMO (Fear of Missing Out) behavior based on levels of self-esteem and self-concept among university students. This research is correlational, employing multiple regression analysis. The sample consists of 313 first-year students from the Faculty of Education, Universitas Negeri Padang. The findings indicate that self-esteem among students is in the low category, with a total percentage of 47.4%. Similarly, self-concept is also in the low category, with a total percentage of 45.2%. On the other hand, FoMO among students is in the high category, with a total percentage of 69%. There is a negative and significant relationship between self-esteem and FoMO, as well as between self-concept and FoMO. Additionally, there is a simultaneous relationship between self-esteem, self-concept, and FoMO. The implications of the study suggest that the university needs to design guidance and counseling programs focused on enhancing students' self-esteem and self-concept to prevent the emergence of FoM
Do People High in Dark Traits Have a Better Life? The Role of Dark Personality Traits on Objective and Subjective Career Success in an Indonesian Collective Society
Maintaining harmony in social relations, a fundamental value of a collective society, is completely opposed to the dark personality traits that are egocentric and antisocial. This fact has an impact on criticism and increased social pressure for individuals with dark personalities in a collective society, as well as on objective and subjective success. This cross-sectional study was conducted to elucidate the impact of dark personalities on success in a collective society. The results (N = 522) revealed that dark personality traits, particularly narcissism, were the most consistent traits in predicting subjective career success in participants with (n = 273) or without managerial positions (n = 249). Furthermore, participants with and without managerial positions showed no difference in subjective career success. The findings are expected to provide reliable information on the influence of dark personalities on success in a collective society. Keywords: dark personality, narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, career success

The Role of Job Satisfaction on Turnover Intention with Employee Engagement as a Mediating Variable
Dissatisfaction often arises from factors related to workload, with heavy workloads driving employees to consider leaving for other companies. However, highly engaged employees are more likely to contribute positively through ideas and actions, and are more likely to stay with the organization longer. This study investigates the impact of job satisfaction on turnover intention, with employee engagement serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed, surveying 315 employees at Company X in Tanjung Morawa, all with 2 to 5 years of service. The results of the mediation analysis using SEM-PLS reveal that employee engagement significantly mediates the relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention. To reduce turnover intention, organizations should prioritize enhancing employee engagement by improving factors that contribute to job satisfaction
Understanding Student Self-Confidence: Impacts of Body Shaming, Self-Compassion, and Gender in Higher Education
Low self-confidence is a significant factor contributing to various academic and social difficulties among students, hindering their personal development. Previous research and observations at Padang State University indicate that many students continue to struggle with low self-confidence. This study aims to analyze the relationship between body shaming, self-compassion, and gender on student self-confidence, using a quantitative approach with a 2x2x2 factorial design. A sample of 362 students from the Faculty of Education, spread across six departments, was selected using cluster random sampling. Data analysis was conducted using three-way ANOVA. The results of the study revealed several key findings: (1) Overall, students at the Faculty of Education demonstrated high self-confidence, despite body shaming experiences; (2) In terms of self-compassion, students with higher levels of self-compassion exhibited greater self-confidence on average; (3) Gender did not significantly impact self-confidence, as there was little difference between male and female students; (4) Students who had not experienced body shaming had higher self-confidence than those who had been subjected to it; (5) There were significant differences in self-confidence based on self-compassion, with higher self-compassion correlating with higher self-confidence, while lower self-compassion was linked to lower self-confidence; and (6) There was no interaction effect between body shaming, self-compassion, and gender in explaining student self-confidence levels. This indicates that body shaming and self-compassion influence self-confidence similarly for both male and female students. These findings have implications for the development of counseling services in higher education, suggesting that targeted interventions can help improve student self-confidence, particularly by addressing body shaming and fostering self-compassion
