Eating only the same food: How health concerns and gender influence food neophobia
No full textFood neophobia is an aversion to and avoidance of new foods, a phenomenon that can significantly influence dietary patterns and food choices throughout the lifespan. Food neophobia is thought to be influenced by personal factors, such as health concerns and gender. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of health concerns and gender on food neophobia, with the hypothesis that both factors affect it. This study employed a cross-sectional design with participants aged 18–25 years. Data were collected using the Health Concern Scale and the Food Neophobia Scale, which were distributed via various social media platforms. A univariate general linear model was conducted to identify the influence of independent variables on food neophobia. The results indicate that health concerns positively influence food neophobia, whereas gender does not moderate the relationship between health concerns and food neophobia. These findings can serve as a basis for developing psychological interventions tailored to individuals with food neophobia based on their level of health concern
Career exploration in early adulthood: The role of perceived future employability and career aspirations
No full textCareer exploration is an important factor in shaping young adults’ future career goals. However, many young people struggle with limited self-understanding and a lack of awareness of available career options, which directly hinders their ability to engage effectively in career exploration. Despite the importance of career exploration, empirical evidence examining how perceived future employability and career aspiration jointly influence career exploration among young adults remains limited, making it difficult to design effective interventions to support students’ career development. This study aims to examine the relationship between perceived future employability, career aspiration and career exploration among young adults. A quantitative approach was employed using scales as data collection tools. This study involved 219 students (32.87% male, 67.12 % female) aged 18-20 years (M_age= 19.06, SD= 1.59) as participants. Three scales were used, namely the career exploration scale, career aspiration scale, and perceived future employability scale, and the data were analyzed using linear regression with SPSS version 22.0 for windows. The results showed that perceived future employability and career aspiration were significantly related to career exploration. Together, perceived future employability and career aspiration contributed 26.4% to career exploration. Separately, perceived future employability showed a positive relationship with career exploration, whereas career aspiration did not show a significant relationship. These findings have implications on how parents, educational institutions, and career counselors may assist students in enhancing career exploration through improving perceived of future employability
Empathy and prosocial: An interfaith psychology study among Ternate City students
No full textThe diversity of religions, cultures, and universities in Ternate City gives rise to social dynamics that are not only complex but also hold great potential to strengthen human and national solidarity, or, conversely, to foster significant disharmony. Therefore, this study aims to explore the interfaith psychological approach, empathy, and prosocial behaviors as efforts to promote harmonious social relations. Specifically, it seeks to identify forms of empathy and prosocial behavior in interfaith interactions among Muslim and non-Muslim students in Ternate City. Using a qualitative phenomenological method, this study explores students' subjective experiences in understanding and expressing empathy, and how these experiences manifest in interfaith prosocial actions. The study involved 15 respondents. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions (FGDs), and analyzed using the phenomenological approach of Moustakas and Husserl, which includes the stages of epoche, phenomenological reduction, imaginative variation, and synthesis of meaning. The research identified three main themes of empathy: Affective Empathy, arising from spiritual values; Compassionate Empathy, serving as the foundation for emotional support; and Intellectual Empathy, emphasizing rationality in conflict resolution. The study concludes that empathy and prosocial behavior are essential foundations for strengthening interfaith solidarity and contribute significantly to character development in higher education settings
The neuropsychology of love: Mechanisms of love in the human brain
Get PDFLove is one of the most powerful positive emotions experienced by human beings. When caught up in love, individuals undergo neurochemical changes in brain regions such as the amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex. These changes are triggered by increased blood flow, reflecting the complex interplay between love and brain activity. Accordingly, this study aims to explore how love influences brain function, the various types of love, and their respective impacts on individuals. This will be explored through a literature review of previous studies on the types and characteristics of love, as well as the neural and hormonal activity associated with it. This study employed a systematic literature review approach, resulting in fifteen selected articles for synthesis. The findings indicate that types of love include romantic love, maternal love, filial love, unconditional love, and friendship. Moreover, the hormones involved in love include oxytocin, dopamine, and testosterone. The study also reveals that visual processing of a loved one's face engages complex brain mechanisms. Unique characteristics of love include sexual desire, emotional conflict, and attachment
Interdependence model in cross-disability friendships
No full textThe visual limitations experienced by blind individuals necessitate the development of friendships with sighted individuals, who are perceived as available and willing to help. The provision of the aid indicates a dependency of blind individuals on their sighted counterparts. However, the development of friendship broadens the scope of interaction, thereby transforming the dependency pattern into a more dynamic relational spectrum, ranging from independent and dependent to interdependent forms. This study aims to explore models of interdependent manifestations in friendships between individuals who are blind and those who are sighted. A qualitative approach utilizing a descriptive phenomenological method was employed. Data collection involved in-depth interviews with six informants, all of whom were male students from inclusive universities. The interdependent relationship patterns in these friendships are manifested through three key components: joint activities, shared experiences, and social support, each with its own model. The coherence of activities includes accidental, interference, and pure models. Bilateral and unilateral models characterize shared experiences, while social support comprises communal, transactional, and proportional models.
Management of psychological distress in adolescents through cognitive-behavioral group therapy
No full textPsychological distress among adolescents is increasingly widespread and is characterized by symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Academic pressure, complex social dynamics, and exposure to digital media are considered key triggers. Psychological distress can disrupt development, lower academic achievement, and potentially lead to more serious mental disorders in adulthood. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of group cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for adolescents with psychological disorders. The research employed a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design, without a control group. Participants consisted of eight adolescents, all aged 13, who experienced psychological distress. Psychological assessment procedures included interviews, behavioral observations, and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale-10 (K-10), which was used to assess subjects' baseline psychological distress. The stages of the CBT group intervention included orienting the patients, identifying maladaptive thoughts and beliefs, challenging these maladaptive thoughts and beliefs, behavioral activation, problem-solving, and relaxation techniques. Data were analyzed using a dependent-samples t-test to assess changes in psychological distress, along with an analysis of interview data comparing participants' narratives before and after the intervention. The findings revealed a significant reduction in psychological distress scores, with participants demonstrating positive changes in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, particularly in themes related to academic achievement, social issues, and family dynamics. The study suggests that CBT group therapy can serve as a practical psychological support strategy within the community to promote improved mental health among adolescents. Future research should include control groups to enhance the generalizability of the findings
Workplace incivility and burnout among Indonesian Migrant workers in South Korea
No full textWorkplace incivility has emerged as a significant psychosocial hazard in various occupational settings. Migrant workers are particularly vulnerable due to linguistic, cultural, and structural challenges. This study examines the relationship between workplace incivility and burnout among Indonesian migrant workers in South Korea. Data were collected from 276 respondents through purposive and snowball sampling, using a quantitative survey design. The Indonesian adaptation of the Workplace Incivility Scale and the Maslach–Trisni Burnout Inventory were employed to measure incivility and burnout. Descriptive analysis indicated that a substantial proportion of participants reported moderate to high levels of both variables. Simple linear regression analysis revealed that workplace incivility significantly and positively predicted burnout levels, accounting for a substantial proportion of the variance (R²=0.879). Pearson correlation analysis further showed that instigated incivility had the strongest association with emotional exhaustion, while supervisor and coworker incivility were significantly correlated with all burnout dimensions. An independent t-test revealed that respondents with children reported higher burnout levels, whereas marital status, age, and prior overseas experience were not significant predictors of burnout. These results demonstrate that interpersonal mistreatment meaningfully contributes to the psychological strain among Indonesian migrant workers. The findings extend empirical evidence on the incivility–burnout link to a new cultural context and highlight the need for transnational labor policies, particularly through collaboration between the Kementerian Pelindungan Pekerja Migran Indonesia (KP2MI) and the Human Resources Development Service of Korea (HRD Korea) to incorporate psychosocial protection, respectful communication, and mental health support into the Employment Permit System (EPS)

The influence of learning styles and thinking styles on self–regulated learning among high school students
No full textIn response to evolving educational demands, students are increasingly expected to take ownership of their learning, particularly in environments characterized by high academic pressure and teacher-centered instruction. Self-regulated learning (SRL) plays a crucial role in enabling students to plan, monitor, and evaluate their cognitive strategies, motivation, and behavior to achieve academic success. This study investigates how internal factors, specifically learning styles and thinking styles, influence SRL among high school students. A quantitative approach was employed, using multiple linear regression in SPSS version 20. The research involved 315 students from Perguruan Panca Budi in Medan, selected through proportional stratified sampling. The results indicated that the regression model was statistically significant (F=4079.49, p<0.001), with learning styles emerging as a strong predictor of SRL (β=0.848, p<0.0001). In contrast, thinking styles did not demonstrate a significant effect (β=0.135, p=0.103). The VIF values for both predictors were 2.723, well below accepted thresholds, confirming the absence of multicollinearity and indicating that the multiple regression assumptions were satisfied. Emphasizing students' preferred learning approaches may enhance their autonomy, motivation, and engagement. This study highlights the importance of adaptive teaching strategies that account for individual learning differences, offering practical insights for educators seeking to strengthen SRL in the classroom
