Adolescents' self-concept in terms of their parents' marriage

Parental divorce can influence the way teenagers recognize themselves in forming one of their developmental tasks, namely self-concept. Adolescents with different family statuses, divorced and non-divorced, may have different views and expectations regarding themselves. The aim of this research is to determine the differences in self-concept of adolescents with divorced and non-divorced parents. A total of 106 students of SMAN 7 Makassar with an age range of 14-18 years were selected using Accidental Sampling. The measuring instrument used is the self-concept scale. The hypothesis is explained using the Mann Whitney test using SPSS 16 for Windows. The results of the study showed that there was a difference between the self-concept of adolescents with divorced parents and adolescents with non-divorced parents (p=0.00 <0.05). Adolescents with divorced parents have a mean rank of 63.42 and adolescents with non-divorced parents have a mean rank of 42.58, so it is concluded that adolescents with divorced parents have high self-concept scores.

Mindfulness and meaning in life: The mediating effect of self-concept clarity and coping self-efficacy during the COVID-19 pandemic

The current study aimed to investigate self-concept clarity and coping self-efficacy as mechanisms for mindfulness and meaning in life in a community pandemic experience. Participants were 538 Chinese college students (female = 70.40%, mean age = 20.01 years, SD = 1.31 years). The students completed the following measures: Mindful Attention Awareness Scale, Self-concept Clarity Scale, Coping Self-efficacy Scale, and Meaning in Life Questionnaire. Following path analyses, results showed that mindfulness was significantly and positively related to meaning in life. Mediation analysis revealed that self-concept clarity, as well as coping self-efficacy, played a mediating role between mindfulness and meaning in life, increasing meaning in life. In terms of self-concept and coping self-efficacy, coping self-efficacy had a stronger effect on the relationship between mindlessness and meaning in life, accounting for 33.0% and 64.3% of the total effect, respectively. The findings suggest that gains in mindfulness predicted greater meaning in life through both self-concept clarity and coping self-efficacy.

Emotional and relational regulation of children and youth in residential care

Family relationships have been shown to play an important role in the way children/youth evaluate themselves, influencing their emotional and relational regulation, more specifically, their self-concept, self-esteem, perception of social support and behavior. In order to compare the adjustment of children/youth living in residential care and in family, 169 children/youth aged between 10 and 21 years were studied, 62 living in residential care units and 107 with their families, 93 females and 76 males. The Piers-Harris Self-concept Rating Scale, Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale, Procidano and Heller's Perception of Social Support from Friends and Family and Buss and Perry's Aggressiveness Questionnaire were applied via google forms and in person. The results showed that children and youngsters in residential care show statistically significant differences from those who live with their families in all the parameters analyzed. They are more fragile in terms of self-concept (except for the anxiety domain) and self-esteem, show a lower perception of social support from peers and family, and show a higher perception of aggressiveness, both in general and in the instrumental, affective and cognitive dimensions. We conclude that all participants showed weaknesses in terms of anxiety management, and that institutionalized children/youth were more psychologically and relationally maladjusted and more aggressive, thus demonstrating the urgency for a multidisciplinary intervention in this population, by promoting personal and relational skills.

Language learning aptitude in older adults

Recent developments in language learning aptitude research have generated renewed interest in the topic, especially with regard to the distinction between aptitude for explicit and implicit learning. This work is complemented by ongoing improvements to the LLAMA aptitude test. To date, studies of aptitude have relied primarily on data from younger adults and adolescents, although the importance of understanding older adults’ abilities and needs is increasingly being acknowledged. In a first attempt to assess the suitability of existing aptitude measures for older adults, to establish the relationship between aptitude for explicit and implicit learning in such a population, and to explore the role of other individual difference variables, 64 healthy volunteers aged 61–79 completed the LLAMA and a probabilistic serial reaction time (SRT) task. We examined to what extent participants’ occupational status, chronological age, level of multilingualism, self-concept, emotional state and leisure activities were associated with their performance on the aptitude measures. Both the LLAMA and the SRT proved challenging for the participants, but the hypothesised distinction between implicit and explicit aptitude was supported empirically. We found that retired participants were at a disadvantage on implicit aptitude measures compared with participants who were still working. Level of multilingualism and a more positive self-concept in terms of memory and cognition correlated with performance on the implicit aptitude measures, while age had an impact on performance on the explicit aptitude measures. We discuss possible interpretations of these results in the context of existing research on third-age language learning and use.

Self-Concept and Learning Achievement of Mathematics Education College Student

Self-concept is one important factor in one's success, especially in education. This study aims to describe and analyze the relationship between students' self-concept in learning mathematics and mathematics learning achievement, and investigate the significance of differences in self-concept and learning achievement in mathematics education students seen from that semester. A total of 151 mathematics education students at the Teaching and Education Faculty of the University of Muhammadiyah Malang were used as participants in this study. Self-concept data and mathematics learning achievement were obtained through an online questionnaire using Google Forms. Descriptive statistics, correlation tests, and ANOVA tests were used in analyzing the data. Descriptions of self-concept and student achievement are presented per category and semester. Correlational analysis shows a very weak relationship between self-concept and student achievement. The results of the ANOVA test prove that there is no significant difference in self-concept in terms of student semesters. As for learning achievement there is a significant difference based on student semester.

Analyzing when parental warmth but without parental strictness leads to more adolescent empathy and self-concept: Evidence from Spanish homes.

Classical research mainly conducted with European-American families has identified the combination of warmth and strictness (authoritative style) as the parenting always associated with the highest scores on developmental outcomes. Additionally, despite the benefits of empathy for prosocial behaviors and protection against antisocial behaviors, most research has considered the contribution of specific practices (e.g., reasoning or power assertion), but not so much the parenting styles. Similarly, family studies tend to study the relationship between parenting and global self-perceptions (self-esteem), but not so much those of each dimension (self-concept). In the present study, 600 Spanish adolescents from 12 to 17 years old (M = 15.25, SD = 2.01) were classified within one of the four household typologies (i.e., authoritative, indulgent, authoritarian, or neglectful). Adolescent developmental outcomes were cognitive empathy (adopting perspectives and emotional understanding), emotional empathy (empathic stress and empathic happiness), and self-concept (academic, social, emotional, family and physical). The results showed that the indulgent parenting (warmth but not strictness) was related to equal or even better empathy and self-concept than the authoritative style (warmth and strictness), whereas non-warm parenting (authoritarian and neglectful) was consistently associated with poor results. Overall, the present findings seriously question that parental strictness combined with parental warmth (authoritative style) is always the parenting style related to the greatest outcomes. By contrast, it seems that reasoning, warmth and involvement, without strictness (indulgent parenting) help adolescents to achieve a good orientation toward others in terms of cognitive and affective empathy and a good self-evaluation in terms of self-concept.

Academic Resilience in Post Pandemic Covid-19 Among College Students

Various changes that have occurred due to the COVID-19 pandemic require students to be able to adapt to various academic demands and rise from existing problems, considering that the COVID-19 pandemic is still ongoing today. This ability is referred to as academic resilience. This study aims to see the picture of academic resilience in students in terms of self-concept and family support. The subjects in this study were students at Bhayangkara University, Jakarta Raya. The sampling technique used in this study is purposive Sampling. The data analysis method used in this research is multiple linear regression analysis. The purpose of this analysis is to determine the effect of two variables X (self-concept and family support) on variable Y (academic resilience). Based on the results of the regression analysis, the value of p = 0.005 or p <0.05 and the value of F = 5,631. That is, self-concept and family support together can predict academic resilience. The results of the analysis can be seen as the value of the coefficient of determination or effective contribution of self-concept variables and family support simultaneously or together can predict the resilience of 10.4%, while the rest is influenced by other factors.

Physical Self-Concept and Physical Activity Levels between Physical Education Major and Non-Physical Education Major College Students

The study was designed to examine differences in physical self-concept and physical activity between physical education major and non-physical education major college students. Physical self-description and physical activity questionnaires were administered to 161 students. The Physical Self-Description Questionnaire (PSDQ) has 11 factors namely, action, appearance, body fat, coordination, endurance, flexibility, health, sport, strength, global physical, and global esteem. In the main effect, it was found that physical education major and non-physical education major students vary in the levels of their physical self-concept. Physical education majors were found to have higher physical self-concept in terms of action, coordination, endurance, sport, strength, and global esteem. Similarly, the physical education major and non-physical education major students differ in the levels of their physical activity. Among the 11 factors of physical self-concept, sport best predicts the level of physical activity of the students.

PENINGKATAN KOMPETESI MELALUI SELF-CONCEPT PARA PENGRAJIN TAHU TEMPE PRIMKOPTI SWAKERTA, SEMANAN JAKARTA BARAT

<em>The decline in the turnover of tofu and tempe craftsmen in the Semanan area, Kali Deres sub-district, West Jakarta, has caused the tofu and tempeh craftsmen to have to think of strategies to keep their production running and increase sales. In addition, craftsmen are forced to reduce the amount of production compared to usual to prevent oversupply due to a decrease in demand. In addition, the price of the tofu and tempe was also increased from usual to cover the losses received. Among the various factors that can cause it, one important factor is increasing the competence of craftsmen through self-concept. This aspect concerns the positive values and attitudes of tofu and tempeh craftsmen related to the business. The community service carried out aims to increase competence through self-concept in the tofu and tempeh craftsman group in this region. The community service method is carried out using online counseling by providing material and question and answer (Q&A) discussions. The service was carried out smoothly. The measurement of the effectiveness of this abdimas uses a simple descriptive-quantitative by explaining the increase in insight into the competence of the craftsmen in terms of self-concept. In addition, the results of the service carried out were able to provide increased insight into tofu and tempe craftsmen in this region regarding self-concept-based competencies. The most significant improvement was found on a fairly good achievement scale (from 0% to 48%) where 5-6 items were answered correctly by the participants. The importance of the ability to manage creative marketing and sales strategies by utilizing online (digital) media is a recommendation for the next abdimas topic.</em>

The relationship of stakeholders’ social identities and wildlife value orientations with attitudes toward red deer management

ABSTRACT It has been recommended that wildlife management should be tailored to either wildlife value orientations (WVOs) or social identities (SIs) because both can influence stakeholders’ attitudes. However, a comparison of associations of WVOs and SIs with attitudes of stakeholders is lacking in the literature. We examined WVOs and attitudes toward red deer management among 834 individuals, encompassing foresters, hunting tenants, and conservationists (presumed to have strong SIs), as well as citizens, councilors, and forest owners (presumed to have weak SIs). Foresters’ and hunting tenants’ attitudes did not differ, despite the presence of different WVOs among each group, whereas conservationists’ attitudes partly and citizens,’ councilors’ and forest owners’ attitudes were strongly associated with different WVOs. Those with strong SIs should be addressed in terms of self-concepts and group processes. We recommend qualitative research on the SIs of stakeholders and quantitative research on the linkages of SIs and other social-psychological concepts.

No self to spare: How the cognitive structure of the self influences moral behavior

People represent knowledge about their self-concept in terms of multiple cognitive structures or self-aspects. “Self-overlap” refers to the extent to which people perceive their various self-aspects as interconnected, such that their thoughts and feelings about themselves are similar across these self-aspects. The present research shows self-overlap influences moral behavior. Specifically, people high in self-overlap (interconnected self-aspects) are more likely to behave ethically than people low in overlap (independent self-aspects), because they tend to see their actions as “self-diagnostic” (i.e., representative of the type of person they are). In six studies, we find this pattern of behavior for chronic/measured (Studies 1 and 2) and situational/manipulated self-overlap (Studies 3 – 6). We show people low in self-overlap behave as though they have “no self to spare”—unless their actions are presented as non-diagnostic for inferences about the self (Study 5), or unless they do not value the context-relevant moral characteristic (e.g., being altruistic; Study 6). Finally, we introduce a 7-item measure of perceptions of self-diagnosticity (SDS).
