Implementasi Pemahaman Orang Muda Katolik Tentang Kitab Suci Deuteurokanonika Bagi Kerukunan Di Naibonat, Kuasi Paroki Raknamo, Kupang

Young Catholics (OMK) are the next generation of sources of the Catholic faith. One of them is the holy book. In the Naibonat quasi-parish, OMK is very active in church activities. However, in reality, there are still many OMK who do not have adequate knowledge and understanding of the holy books, both deuteurocanonical. So, when a new translation of the deuteurocanonical holy book was published, OMK became confused about which holy book to have. This research aims to determine the extent of understanding of OMK in Naibonat regarding the deuterocanonical holy book, efforts that need to be made to increase OMK's understanding so that harmony is maintained through the teachings of the deuterurocanonical holy book. The method used is a descriptive qualitative method. Data collection techniques are interviews, observation and documentation combined with literary studies. The data obtained was reduced and analyzed so that it answered the research objectives. As a result, OMK in Naibonat do not understand the differences between Catholic and Protestant holy books. However, OMK knows that the contents of the holy book teach about helping each other and loving each other. This is also what is taught in deuteurocanonical books, such as in the book of Tobit which contains life advice for his son Tobiah to continue doing good, abstain from sin, and continue to help others by giving alms. Advice for OMKs like this is what encourages the creation of a harmonious life where by helping and loving each other, differences and diversity will not become obstacles but become tools that maintain harmony in life for the common good. The results of this research will be a starting point for community service activities in the form of socializing the deuteurocanonical holy book for OMK in Naibonat in particular and in the Archdiocese of Kupang in general.

The Bullying Concept in Scientific and Psychological Sources

From the moral point of view, a person's actions should correspond to a certain social norm. The boundaries of this norm are set by age-old patterns and perceptions. The laws and rules of ethics in force in a given socio-historical situation also have a significant impact. It is believed that “old” and “new” rules should form a solid foundation of morality. Children should be taught these rules, and then they will live without breaking the law. Everyone wants a harmonious life, and often ordinary people, “philistines”, do not think about the true, underlying causes of violent behavior. And when they encounter aggression in children and adolescents, unfortunately, they see only superficial, external manifestations in it. Thus, the behavior of children who show irritation, intemperance, rudeness, opposition, disrespect for elders is seen as a result of poor upbringing, bad influence of peers, books and films with aggressive content, etc. And these children, as a result, become the target of severe measures by adults, society in general. The article considers the old familiar problem of “aggression” in a “new” way as the bullying concept, taking into account the research of recent years. Currently, the bullying term is a universally recognized international socio-psychological term. Despite the fact that experts ignore the problem of the impact of the bullying experience on the further life and attitudes of victims, some data show the extremely adverse impact of harassing on the subsequent behavior of a person. The authors consider different points of view of the concept of “bullying”, reveal the content of the concept of “aggression”, the purposes of aggression, its types: instrumental and emotional aggression, aggression in adolescence, etc. The purpose of this research is to identify and set the main problems associated with the problem of bullying among teenagers. The object of the research is literature considering the problem of bullying, its types. The following methods were used: theoretical (analysis of psychological, pedagogical and scientific and methodological literature on the studied problem, content analysis of modern literature; study of sources determining the characteristics of adolescent development.

The Big, the Dark, and the Biopsychosocial Shades of Harmony: Personality Traits and Harmony in Life.

Our current understanding of the relationship between personality traits and subjective well-being, or happiness, is limited to the conceptualization of subjective well-being as being life satisfaction and a positive affective experience (i.e., the presence of positive emotions and the absence of negative ones), thus lacking the sense of acceptance, balance, adaptation, and self-transcendent unity (i.e., harmony in life) that is appreciated as part of the good life in many ancient and modern cultures. Moreover, most studies use the Big Five Model to understand which personality traits predict subjective well-being. Here, I examine the predictive power of personality on harmony in life using the Big Five Model, the Dark Triad, and Cloninger's Biopsychosocial Model. The present study utilized past published data from three cross-sectional studies. In each separate sample, participants self-reported personality by answering the Big Five Inventory (N1 = 297), the Short Dark Triad (N2 = 1876), or the Temperament and Character Inventory (N3 = 436). All participants (NTotal = 3698) answered to the Harmony in Life Scale. The traits in the Biopsychosocial Model explained the highest variance in harmony in life (R2 = 0.435, F(7, 428) = 47.136, p < 0.001), followed by the Big Five (R2 = 0.341, F(5, 291) = 30.110, p < 0.001) and the Dark Triad (R2 = 0.096, F(3, 1872) = 66.055, p < 0.001). The key significant predictors were Self-Directedness, Self-Transcendence, and Harm Avoidance from the Biopsychosocial Model and Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Neuroticism from the Big Five. Narcissism was the only predictor from the Dark Triad, although this relationship was very small. The findings underscore the importance of a multidimensional approach for understanding subjective well-being and the inclusion of harmony in life as its third component. The Biopsychosocial Model's inclusion of both temperament and character dimensions provided the most comprehensive understanding of harmony in life. While positive traits like Agreeableness, Self-Directedness, and Self-Transcendence enhance harmony, negative traits like Neuroticism and Harm Avoidance diminish it. Moreover, research only including "dark traits" might give the impression that an inflated sense of self-importance, a deep need for admiration, and a lack of empathy for others (i.e., Narcissism) is predictive of balance in life. However, this association was not only extremely low but can be interpreted as misguided since the results using the other models showed that helpful, empathetic, kind, and self-transcendent behavior predicted harmony. These results suggest that interventions aimed at enhancing well-being should consider a broad range of personality traits, especially those that are not present in the Big Five Model, thus advocating for a biopsychosocial approach to well-being interventions.
