Personal growth initiative as a predictor of psychological distress in college students during the covid-19 pandemic
This study aims to determine the role of personal growth initiatives (PGI) in psychological distress among undergraduate students during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study hypothesizes that there is a role of PGI in psychological distress among undergraduate students during the COVID-19 pandemic. Respondents in this study were 200 active undergraduate students in Indonesia. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The measuring instruments were the General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12) and the PGI scale. The results show that PGI had a significant role in psychological distress, with F(1.198) = 13.784, p= 0.000, R2 = 0.065, and R2 adjusted = 0.060. The regression coefficient (β = -0.175) indicated that an increase in PGI, on average, could decrease the psychological distress score by 0.175. Thus, the hypothesis proposed in this study can be accepted
Systematic Literature Review: Dukungan Sosial sebagai Pilar Kesejahteraan Psikologis Lansia
The increasing number and proportion of the elderly population in Indonesia, reaching one in 10 Indonesians, has led to various challenges, including economic slowdown, demographic imbalance, limited adoption of healthy lifestyles, and a higher risk of depression. Additionally, older adults must cope with physical, social, and emotional changes associated with aging. This phenomenon is a global concern, as their psychological well-being is strongly influenced by the quality of social support they receive. This study integrates previous findings to provide a comprehensive understanding of the role of social support in enhancing elderly psychological well-being. Using a systematic literature review, the selection process from JSTOR and Scopus databases resulted in 10 relevant articles. The synthesis identified three key themes: (1) the function of social support in psychological well-being, (2) mechanisms for improving psychological well-being, and (3) sources of social support influencing psychological well-being. By integrating insights from multiple sources, this review highlights the impact of social support in mitigating the negative effects of aging and improving elderly well-being. These findings are expected to serve as a foundation for more effective interventions and policies to enhance the psychological well-being of older adults, particularly in addressing the challenges posed by an aging population. Peningkatan jumlah dan proporsi penduduk berusia lanjut di Indonesia yang berada pada angka satu dari 10 orang penduduk Indonesia menimbulkan berbagai masalah, seperti perlambatan ekonomi, ketidakseimbangan demografi, hingga meningkatnya risiko depresi. Selain itu, mereka juga harus menghadapi perubahan fisik, sosial, dan emosional akibat penuaan. Fenomena ini menjadi perhatian global, terutama karena kesejahteraan psikologis lansia sangat dipengaruhi oleh kualitas dukungan sosial yang mereka terima dari lingkungan sekitar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengintegrasikan temuan terdahulu untuk memberikan gambaran holistik mengenai peranan dukungan sosial dalam mendukung kesejahteraan psikologis lansia. Dengan menggunakan metode systematic literature review, proses seleksi berbagai artikel dari database JSTOR dan Scopus menghasilkan 10 artikel yang memenuhi kriteria relevansi. Hasil sintesis menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tiga tema utama mengenai bagaimana dukungan sosial berkontribusi pada peningkatan kesejahteraan psikologis lansia, yaitu: (1) fungsi dukungan sosial terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis; (2) mekanisme peningkatan kesejahteraan psikologis; dan (3) sumber dukungan sosial yang memengaruhi kesejahteraan psikologis. Dengan mengintegrasikan wawasan dari berbagai sumber, hasil tinjauan literatur ini berdampak pada peningkatan kesadaran akan pentingnya memperkuat jaringan sosial lansia guna meningkatkan kesejahteraan psikologis mereka di hari tua. Temuan ini diharapkan menjadi acuan bagi intervensi yang lebih efektif dalam meningkatkan kesejahteraan psikologis lansia di masa depan, khususnya dalam menghadapi fenomena penuaan penduduk
“Saya Tidak Mau Ikut Demonstrasi”: Collective Action terhadap Procedural Injustice Ditinjau dari Empat Tipologi Budaya
This study aims to examine whether cultural typologies: vertical collectivism (VC), horizontal collectivism (HC), vertical individualism (VI), and horizontal individualism (HI), predict individuals’ intentions to engage in collective action in response to procedural injustice. The study employed a quantitative survey design involving 300 participants (67.67% female; 89% aged 18–30 years). Participants were presented with a procedural injustice vignette and subsequently completed the Individualism–Collectivism Scale (Triandis & Gelfand, 1998) and the Belief-Aligned Collective Action Scale (Cervone et al., 2023). Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression while controlling for age and gender. The findings indicate that vertical individualism significantly predicts higher intentions to engage in collective action (p < .001), whereas other cultural typologies do not show significant effects. These results suggest that individualistic orientations emphasizing competition and status differentiation may play a stronger role in motivating collective action under conditions of procedural injustice.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji peran tipologi budaya; vertical collectivism (VC), horizontal collectivism (HC), vertical individualism (VI), dan horizontal individualism (HI), dalam memprediksi intensi individu untuk terlibat dalam aksi kolektif ketika menghadapi ketidakadilan prosedural. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain survei yang melibatkan 300 partisipan (67,67% perempuan; 89% berusia 18–30 tahun). Partisipan terlebih dahulu diberikan skenario ketidakadilan prosedural (vignette), kemudian diminta mengisi Individualism–Collectivism Scale (Triandis & Gelfand, 1998) dan Belief-Aligned Collective Action Scale (Cervone et al., 2023). Data dianalisis menggunakan regresi linier berganda dengan mengontrol variabel usia dan jenis kelamin. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa hanya tipologi budaya vertical individualism yang secara signifikan memprediksi peningkatan intensi aksi kolektif (p < .001), sementara tipologi budaya lainnya tidak menunjukkan pengaruh yang signifikan. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa orientasi individualistik yang menekankan kompetisi dan diferensiasi status memiliki peran yang lebih kuat dalam mendorong aksi kolektif dalam konteks ketidakadilan prosedural
