Pancasila, as the national ideology of Indonesia, plays a crucial role in shaping the character and behavior of society. However, in recent decades, the implementation of Pancasila's values has faced significant challenges due to social inequalities and the impacts of globalization. Social and cultural changes brought about by globalization, such as individualism and hedonism, threaten the core principles of Pancasila, such as mutual cooperation, tolerance, and social justice. As the next generation, students are expected to become agents of change by implementing the values of Pancasila in society. However, despite the principles of Pancasila being outlined in various policies, many practices still contradict these values. Therefore, there is a need for greater efforts to instill a deeper and more practical understanding of Pancasila in order to create a harmonious, just society in accordance with the guidelines of Pancasila.

This study explores the relationship between religiosity and Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) within contemporary organizations by adopting a positive psychology perspective. OCB is defined as discretionary behaviors by employees that go beyond their formal job duties and contribute positively to the overall functioning and success of the organization. Examples include helping colleagues, being punctual, and demonstrating initiative, which foster a cooperative and productive work environment. Religiosity, on the other hand, is understood as a belief system that shapes an individual’s values, attitudes, and behaviors, both intrinsically—stemming from internal spiritual commitment—and extrinsically—motivated by external social or cultural influences. Through a systematic review of ten national and international academic journals, this study identifies several common dimensions of OCB, such as altruism (helping others selflessly), civic virtue (active and responsible participation in organizational affairs), and conscientiousness (going beyond minimal job requirements). The findings reveal a consistent positive correlation between religiosity and OCB, especially in sectors like education, Islamic banking, and healthcare, where religious principles strongly influence organizational culture. The integration of religious values into organizational practices encourages employees to exhibit behaviors that promote harmony, ethical conduct, and a sense of community within the workplace. This is particularly evident in employees who possess high levels of intrinsic religiosity, as their internalized beliefs motivate them to engage in prosocial actions that benefit the organization. The study recommends that human resource management strategies incorporate religious or spiritual values to cultivate a positive organizational culture. Such integration can be achieved through training programs, leadership development, and reward systems that emphasize ethical behavior and social responsibility, ultimately leading to improved employee satisfaction, loyalty, and overall organizational performance.

This article aims to theoretically examine the relationship between unhealthy personality, cognitive distortion, and the application of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) in counseling practice. This study uses a literature study method with a conceptual approach, namely analyzing relevant literature without collecting field data. The results of the study indicate that unhealthy personality is often influenced by cognitive distortions that cause individuals to view themselves and their environment negatively and irrationally. CBT is an effective counseling approach to help individuals recognize and reconstruct negative thought patterns to be more realistic and adaptive. In conclusion, CBT can be used as a psychological intervention strategy in dealing with unhealthy personality problems, especially in students who experience academic pressure and impostor syndrome.  

The phenomenon of gang fights between groups has become a serious problem for all parties. Gang fights reflect the fragility of social control and the weak internalization of values of discipline and tolerance among teenagers. In addition, the cause of gang fights carried out by a number of students is based on pride and environmental influences that encourage them to engage in deviant behavior or even criminal acts. This study aims to describe the definition and characteristics of gang fights, examine gang fights as a form of social deviance, and identify the social deviance impacts caused by gang fights. This study uses a qualitative approach. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews and literature review. The study concluded that forms of social deviance such as gang fights are learned through intensive social interaction within peer groups, as explained by Differential Association Theory. Thus, gang fights as deviant behavior do not simply arise spontaneously, but are the result of a continuous social learning process in a supportive environment, where values of violence and group solidarity are formed and passed down from one individual to another.

Pre- and post-test evaluations revealed significant improvements in participants’ comprehension and mindset regarding spiritual empowerment and ethical financial behavior. The program's outcomes demonstrated its alignment with national objectives in sustainable human resource development, particularly in the integration of Islamic values into practical life skills. This study underscores the potential of hybrid-format, faith-driven seminars to foster lasting personal growth and community resilience. Furthermore, it opens pathways for replicating similar models in other local contexts to advance spiritually grounded economic empowerment.

This research aims to understand the dynamics of social labeling of the Tasawuf Underground community in Ciputat and how this community responds to the stigma attached by society. This community consists of punk kids who previously received negative stigma due to street lifestyle, psychotropic use, and family conflicts. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method and data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. The results showed that the negative labeling of punk kids is not only based on deviant behavior, but is more influenced by appearances that do not conform to dominant norms. The Tasawuf Underground Community provides a safe space for the social reintegration process through a tasawuf-based spiritual approach, moral development, and job training. The theory of labeling is used to analyze how the identity of punk kids is renegotiated through community support, behavior change, and resistance to stigma. This research concludes that the social reintegration of punk kids depends not only on individual change, but also on changing the paradigm of society in seeing the potential of the future, not the past. The Tasawuf Underground community plays an important role as a reframing agent that allows the redefinition of the identity of punk kids from being labeled deviant to socially and spiritually accepted individuals.

This report contains the results of interviews conducted by students of Elementary School Teacher Education Program of Santo Thomas Catholic University with teachers and fifth grade students of SDN 068332 Medan Tuntungan. The main purpose of the interviews was to obtain information about learning difficulties, aggressive behavior, and student discipline. Through a qualitative approach and direct interviews, three main problems were found: students who experience learning difficulties, students with aggressive behavior, and students who often skip school or are undisciplined. The results of the interviews showed that learning difficulties were influenced by lack of concentration and learning support at home, aggressive behavior was caused by lack of emotional management and attention from the environment, and discipline problems were related to minimal motivation and family supervision. The guidance actions taken showed positive developments, such as increased courage of students to ask questions, reduced conflict between friends, and improved student attendance rates. The discussion emphasized the importance of collaboration between teachers, students, and parents to create a supportive learning environment. Guidance and counseling services with an empathetic approach and storytelling techniques have proven effective in fostering changes in students' attitudes and behaviors. In conclusion, open communication and consistent guidance are the keys to successful interventions for student problems in elementary schools.

This study aims to examine the relationship between gullibility and the bandwagon effect among binary option traders. Gullibility is defined as an individual's tendency to trust others excessively, even in the presence of cues suggesting dishonesty. Highly gullible individuals are more likely to follow group decisions without critical verification, making them susceptible to the bandwagon effect—a phenomenon in which people adopt behaviors simply because many others are doing the same. This research employed a quantitative correlational approach with 125 participants who were active binary option traders. Data were collected using validated gullibility and bandwagon effect scales. The results revealed a significant positive correlation between gullibility and the bandwagon effect (r = 0.520; p < 0.001). These findings indicate that the higher an individual's gullibility, the greater their tendency to be influenced by the bandwagon effect in trading decision-making.

Menstrual hygiene is an important component of personal hygiene that plays a significant role in an individual's health behavior, helping to prevent disorders in reproductive organ function. This study aims to determine the effect of health promotion on the level of menstrual hygiene knowledge among children aged 13–15 years. The study design used a pre-experimental approach with a one-group pre-posttest design. The population consisted of 110 respondents, and using simple random sampling, 83 respondents were selected. Data for this study were collected using a knowledge level questionnaire. After tabulation, the data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test with p < 0.05. The results showed that nearly all female students (108, or 98.2%) had insufficient knowledge of menstrual hygiene before receiving health promotion. Almost all female students after receiving health promotion had adequate knowledge of menstrual hygiene, totaling 88 (80.0%). Based on the above results, the effect of health promotion on the level of knowledge of menstrual hygiene among children aged 13-15 years was found to be p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). This indicates that health promotion has an effect on the level of knowledge about menstrual hygiene among girls aged 13–15 years. Therefore, it is hoped that female students will always maintain their genital hygiene by practicing proper personal hygiene in accordance with the guidelines provided by healthcare professionals, especially during menstruation.
