Positive Self-Talk Training to Reduce Romantic Partner Selection Anxiety in Early Adult Women

Aliyah Hidayah Madjid — 2026-06-30

Young adult women are prone to experiencing anxiety when selecting a life partner; however, research on cognitive-based interventions specifically targeting this form of anxiety remains limited, particularly in the Indonesian context. This study aims to examine the effect of positive self-talk training on reducing anxiety related to selecting a partner among young adult women. This study should be understood as an initial exploratory study. Participants consisted of six women aged 20–25 years in Makassar, selected using purposive sampling. A single-group quasi-experimental design with pre-test – post-test and follow-up was used. The measurement scale demonstrated acceptable initial construct validity based on Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), with three items removed due to low factor loadings (< 0.45), and high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.939). The training module also demonstrated good feasibility (83.5%). Ethical procedures were ensured through informed consent. The Friedman test revealed a significant difference in anxiety scores across the three measurement points (χ² (2) = 9.00, p = 0.011), with scores decreasing from the pre-test (M = 45.33) to the post-test (M = 17.00), followed by a slight increase at the follow-up stage (M = 19.17). The Durbin–Conover post hoc test indicated a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test (p = 0.001), but not between the post-test and follow-up (p = 1.000). These findings suggest that positive self-talk training may be effective in reducing anxiety in the short term; however, the absence of a control group and the small sample size limit the generalizability and causal interpretation of these results.

Debrien Edenia Agustiananda — 2026-06-30

Settlement along railway tracks is a form of informal settlement that emerges due to limited access to adequate housing. Environmental hazards, limited land legality, as well as social and economic pressures can potentially affect the quality of life of residents in these areas. This study aims to describe the quality of life of residents living along railway tracks in Tegalkojo Village, Jebres District, Surakarta City. This research employs a quantitative approach with a descriptive method. Fifty participants were selected using incidental sampling technique, with the criteria of being at least 18 years old, married, and living along railway tracks for a minimum of one year. Data collection was conducted using the WHOQOL-BREF instrument, which measures four dominant aspects of quality of life: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. Data analysis employed univariate analysis with descriptive statistics presentation. The results showed that the average total quality of life score of residents was in the medium category, with a mean value of 57.34. In general, most participants fell into the medium to good category in both environmental and social relationship domains. However, some small communities remain in the poor category. These findings indicate that communities along railway tracks have relatively good adaptability to constrained environmental conditions, supported by social relationships and community solidarity. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of community-based policies and interventions that do not only focus on the physical aspects of organizations but also on strengthening the psychological and social well-being of marginalized communities.

Knowing On-self, Making Sense of Relationships: Self-Reflection as an Intervention in Shaping Romantic Beliefs and Marriage Expectations among Early Adult Women

Pradiptya Septyanti Putri — 2026-06-30

Changes in modern social dynamics have led many early adult women to experience ambivalence toward marriage, shaped by unrealistic romantic beliefs and idealized marriage expectations. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of a self-reflection intervention in reshaping romantic beliefs and marriage expectations among early adult women. A quantitative experimental approach with a one group pretest-posttest design was employed. Participants consisted of 11 individuals aged 20–25 years who had never been married, recruited through purposive sampling. The Romantic Beliefs Scale (RBS) developed by Sprecher and Metts (1989) and the Marriage Expectation Scale (MES) developed by Jones and Nelson (1997) were used as measurement instruments, both of which were adapted into Indonesian. The self-reflection intervention was delivered through structured sessions covering the introduction of self-reflection concepts, reflection on romantic beliefs, reflection on marriage expectations, and integration of perspectives. Data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests after normality assumptions were confirmed. Results showed a significant change in romantic beliefs (p = 0.000) and marriage expectations (p = 0.001) following the intervention. These findings indicate that the self-reflection is effective as a psychological intervention in forming more realistic and adaptive romantic beliefs and marriage expectations in early adult women. These results have practical implications for the development of premarital psychoeducation programs aimed at fostering psychological readiness and relational health among young adults.

Self-Esteem and Self-Disclosure Among Urban Early Adult Dating App Users

Puti Fara Diva — 2026-06-30

The increasing use of dating apps has transformed how early adults initiate interpersonal and romantic relationships in urban society. In these digital interactions, self-disclosure is important because users share personal information to build trust and relational closeness. However, the role of self-esteem in explaining self-disclosure within dating apps remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-esteem and self-disclosure among early adult dating app users in urban society. This research used a quantitative correlational design involving 149 early adults aged 20–30 years who had used or were currently using dating apps and lived in urban areas. Self-esteem was measured using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, while self-disclosure was measured using the Revised Self-Disclosure Scale adapted to the dating app context. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s rho correlation because one variable did not meet the normality assumption. The results showed no significant relationship between self-esteem and self-disclosure, rₛ = -0.069, p = 0.400, rₛ² ≈ 0.005. This very small effect size indicates that the two variables shared less than 1% of rank-order variation, suggesting that self-esteem was not a dominant factor in explaining self-disclosure in this sample. Theoretically, self-disclosure in dating apps may be better understood through contextual and interpersonal mechanisms, such as trust, perceived safety, online disinhibition, comfort, authenticity, and interaction quality. Practically, the findings highlight the importance of mindful, gradual, and authentic self-disclosure for users, as well as platform features that support privacy, safety, trust, and controlled information sharing.

Effectiveness of Body Scan Training in Reducing Problematic Internet Use Among Female College Students

Andi Irna Novedha Ramadhaniah — 2026-06-30

Female college students are vulnerable to Problematic Internet Use (PIU) due to increased autonomy, abundant free time, and easy access to the internet. PIU may negatively affect physical and psychological health, academic performance, and social relationships, particularly when the internet is used as a coping mechanism for stress and negative emotions. Mindfulness, defined as non-judgmental awareness of present-moment experiences, has been suggested as a potential intervention for reducing maladaptive internet use. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of body scan training in reducing Problematic Internet Use among female college students. Participants consisted of eight active female college students who used the internet for at least six hours per day and demonstrated moderate to high levels of PIU. The study employed a quasi-experimental one group pretest–posttest with follow-up design. Problematic Internet Use was measured using the Generalized Problematic Internet Use Scale-2 (GPIUS-2). The intervention was based on an adapted mindfulness training module and consisted of five sessions delivered across two meetings. Descriptive analysis showed a decrease in PIU scores from pre-test (M = 58.4, SD = 8.02) to post-test (M = 47.8, SD = 4.62), with a further decrease at follow-up (M = 47.1, SD = 5.06). Friedman test results indicated a significant difference in PIU scores across the three measurement points (χ² = 12.30, p = .002). Durbin–Conover post hoc analysis revealed a significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores (p < .001), whereas no significant difference was found between post-test and follow-up scores (p = .350), suggesting that the intervention effects were maintained over time. These findings provide preliminary evidence that body scan training may be an effective intervention for reducing Problematic Internet Use among female college students.

Academic Stress and Sugar Consumption Behavior with FOMO Among University Students

Umamatul Ukhrowiyah — 2026-06-30

Academic stress, defined as a persistent state of mental distress experienced in response to elevated and incessant academic demands, is a prevalent issue among students. This condition has the potential to impact not only an individual's psychological well-being but also their consumption patterns, particularly with regard to sugar intake. The present study aims to examine the relationship between academic stress and sugar consumption behavior, with Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) acting as a moderator, among university students. The approach employed in this study is quantitative, with data collected via an online questionnaire and subsequently analyzed using Spearman's correlation test and regression analysis at a significance level of 0.05. The findings reveal a modest yet statistically significant negative correlation between sugar consumption behavior and academic stress (ρ = -0.173, p < .001), as well as between FOMO and academic stress (ρ = -0.173, p < .001). Additionally, a highly significant positive correlation was identified between variables X and M (ρ = 0.977, p < .001), suggesting the possibility of multicollinearity within the model. The findings of the regression analysis further demonstrated that the model exhibited statistical significance, as evidenced by its coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.051. The regression analysis demonstrates that the interaction model is statistically significant (R²= 0.051). Specifically, FOMO acts as a significant moderator that negatively influences the relationship between academic stress and sugar consumption behavior, indicating that high levels of FOMO alter how students regulate their dietary patterns under academic pressure. This study concludes that sugar consumption under academic stress is bounded by psychological factors like FOMO, alongside other internal and external variables.

The Relationship Between Time Management and Work–Family Conflict Among Married Female Nurses at Sekayu Regional Public Hospital

Intan Asharin Hidayati — 2026-06-30

This study aims to examine the relationship between Time Management and Work–Family Conflict among married female nurses working at Sekayu Regional Public Hospital. The sample consists of 128 respondents selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using two research instruments measuring Time Management and Work–Family Conflict. The instruments were tested for validity and reliability prior to hypothesis testing. The results of the validity test indicate that all items are valid, while the reliability test shows a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.870, indicating high internal consistency. Assumption tests, including normality and linearity tests, confirm that the data meet the requirements for parametric analysis. Hypothesis testing using simple linear regression reveals a very strong and statistically significant relationship between Time Management and Work–Family Conflict (R = 0.906; p < 0.01). The findings indicate that Time Management contributes significantly to variations in Work–Family Conflict. Effective time management is associated with lower levels of work–family conflict. Therefore, improving time management skills may help reduce work–family conflict and enhance individual well-being.
