Young generation dominated the unemployment rate in Indonesia, highlighting the need to increase the number of entrepreneurs to create new job opportunities. However, the number of entrepreneurs, particularly Muslim entrepreneurs, remained relatively low. To encourage individuals to do entrepreneurship in the future, a strong entrepreneurial intention is required. Thus, this study aims to analyze the factors that influence the entrepreneurial intention of Muslim students from internal and external aspects and from an Islamic perspective. These factors included self-efficacy, family support, peer support, and institutional support with knowledge of entrepreneurial skills, risk-taking ability, and innovative behavior as mediators. This research was conducted on 215 Muslim students at Padjadjaran University using a questionnaire and analyzed using SmartPLS. The results showed that self-efficacy, family support, peer support, and institutional support have a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial intention through mediating variables. Additionally, innovative behavior has a positive and significant effect as a mediator in the research model. These findings provide insights for academics and practitioners to support entrepreneurship development, especially among Muslim students.

Adolescence is an important period in the formation of a person's personality, where individuals tend to be easily influenced by the social environment including associations.

The material provided includes the introduction of the concept of social ethics, identification of healthy and unhealthy associations, ethical values in Islam, and ethics of behavior on social media. Through participatory and reflective methods, students are invited to actively discuss, conduct social simulations, and reflect on the values learned. The results of the evaluation showed an increase in student understanding, changes in social attitudes, and openness in communicating with guidance and counseling teachers.

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.

This study aims to: 1) Identify the social character of students at Al-Istiqomah Islamic Boarding School, Kebumen; 2) Examine the role of the kyai in shaping this character; and 3) Determine supporting and inhibiting factors. This qualitative field research used observation, interviews, and documentation for data collection. The results show that students’ social character is formed through religious activities such as studying classical texts, public speaking training, Al-Barzanji recitation, communal cleaning, group learning, and extracurriculars. The kyai plays a vital role through religious education, direct guidance, and exemplary behavior—like eating and drinking according to prophetic tradition, praying in congregation, and maintaining neighborly ties. Supporting factors include administrative staff, peer support, pesantren programs, and family encouragement. Hindering factors involve limited facilities, negative peer or social media influences, individualism, and students’ background. The kyai’s role remains central in building strong social character among students. 

Pancasila Education is a compulsory subject taught at every level of education, from elementary to higher education, with the aim of shaping students’ attitudes and behaviors based on the values of Pancasila in their daily lives. This study aims to describe the teacher's strategies in implementing the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model to enhance students' critical thinking skills in the Pancasila Education subject for fourth-grade students at SD Negeri 5 Penatih. The research focuses on three main aspects: (1) the implementation of PBL by teachers in improving students’ critical thinking in the topic "Pancasila as the Foundation of My Country", (2) the supporting and inhibiting factors in applying the PBL model, and (3) the implications of PBL implementation on the learning process and outcomes. This study employs a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the teacher’s strategy in applying PBL involves three key stages: planning (designing contextual and relevant problems), implementation (the teacher acting as a facilitator during group discussions), and evaluation (assessing students’ thinking processes). Supporting factors for the successful application of PBL include teacher competence, student motivation, a conducive learning environment, and curriculum support. On the other hand, limited instructional time and low student participation present challenges that need to be addressed. The implications of PBL implementation include enhanced critical thinking skills, improved collaboration abilities, and the development of student character as reflective, open-minded, and responsible individuals. Learning becomes more engaging, meaningful, and interactive as students are actively involved in solving real-life problems related to their everyday experiences.

Family counseling is a strategic approach to helping family members overcome various issues that disrupt family harmony and functionality. In the Indonesian context, family counseling cannot be separated from the influence of distinctive local cultural values such as kinship, mutual cooperation (gotong royong), respect for elders, and the strong presence of religious and customary norms. Indonesian culture, which is predominantly collectivist and hierarchical, places the family as the central social institution that shapes individual identity and behavior. Therefore, it is essential for counselors to understand the diverse family structures present in Indonesia, ranging from patriarchal and matrilineal systems (such as in Minangkabau) to more egalitarian modern families. Culturally-based family counseling in Indonesia not only focuses on resolving interpersonal conflicts within the family but also emphasizes the importance of maintaining social harmony and protecting the family’s reputation in the community. In Indonesian society, conflict resolution is often carried out through deliberation (musyawarah) and involves third parties such as community elders, religious leaders, or respected senior family members. This highlights the need for family counselors in Indonesia to possess intercultural competence and a deep understanding of prevailing social norms. Moreover, religiosity plays a significant role in shaping values, attitudes, and decision-making within families. Counseling approaches that neglect the spiritual and cultural dimensions are often perceived as irrelevant or ineffective. Thus, integrating Western psychological theories with local values is crucial for family counseling to be both effective and contextually appropriate. This article explores the importance of culturally grounded family counseling in Indonesia by emphasizing key principles such as local wisdom, togetherness, deliberation, and harmony as the foundation for intervention strategies. By understanding the complexities of Indonesia’s pluralistic culture, family counseling can become a powerful tool to rebuild healthy, sustainable relationships and support the development of a more emotionally and socially harmonious society.

Early Childhood Education (PAUD) is a crucial stage in shaping children's character and personality. This study aims to identify the characteristics of early childhood and analyze the role of teachers in supporting children's character development through an observational approach. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with direct observation techniques in one of the Kindergartens in Gorontalo City. The results of the observation show that early childhood has unique characteristics, such as spontaneity, high curiosity, and egocentric tendencies. However, challenges were also found in character development, such as lack of independence and unstable emotions. Teachers have a strategic role in overcoming these challenges through an individual approach, effective communication, and the creation of a conducive learning environment. The strategies implemented include providing examples of positive behavior, routine habits, and play activities that support children's character development. This study emphasizes the importance of a deep understanding of the characteristics of early childhood by educators to create an effective and enjoyable learning process, as well as to shape children's characters who are independent and emotionally stable.

Inclusive education at the elementary school level requires an appropriate approach to support the learning success of students with special needs, including children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the individual guidance approach in helping children with ADHD overcome learning challenges, as well as identifying obstacles and supporting factors in its implementation in elementary school environments. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study method at SDIT Al-Ghazali Pamekasan, through data collection techniques in the form of observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The subjects of the study were grade 4 teachers and one of the students with ADHD as the main subject. Data were analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing methods. The results of the study showed that individual guidance was significantly able to improve learning focus, as well as the social and emotional skills of students with ADHD. This success was greatly influenced by teacher involvement, parental support, and adaptive learning strategies. However, challenges such as limited teacher time, lack of varied learning media, and lack of special training are still obstacles that need to be addressed systematically. These findings contribute to the development of more effective inclusive education strategies, especially in supporting students with attention and behavioral disorders in elementary school environments.

Adjustment is the ability of an individual to meet personal needs while responding to demands from the environment around them, so that a balance is achieved between the two. This allows individuals to create harmony with the existing reality. In SMA Muhammadiyah 01 Medan, it was found that there were students in class X who showed a low level of adjustment. This study applied the Quasi Experiment method with the Nonequivalent Control Group Design design. The sample involved in this study consisted of 10 students who were divided into two groups, namely 5 students in the experimental group and 5 students in the control group. Based on the results of the statistical test calculations, the t_count value was obtained as much as 7.270, and compared with the t_table at a significance level of 0.05 of 1.812. Since t_count ≥ t_table (7.270 ≥ 1.812) and the significance value (2-tailed) is less than 0.005 (0.000 ≤ 0.005), Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. In addition, the average of the experimental group (95.20) is higher than the control group (82.40). This indicates a greater increase in the influence of counseling services in the experimental group compared to the control group. In other words, after students receive individual counseling with the Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy approach, there is a significant change in their ability to adjust. Based on these results, it is recommended that guidance and counseling teachers can implement this approach in counseling services to help students improve their ability to adjust.

The results of this study indicate that cognitive therapy has been shown to play an important role in reducing anxiety levels in adolescents. This approach is a form of therapy that focuses on changing the way individuals think to influence their behavior and emotional responses. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of cognitive therapy in treating anxiety symptoms in adolescents.

This article analyzes the representation of inner conflict and the search for self-identity in the character Haia in the novel Laut Tengah by Berliana Kimberly, using Sigmund Freud's literary psychology approach. This approach highlights the dynamics of the interaction between the id, ego, and superego in shaping Haia's personality and behavior. Through this analysis, it is found that Haia experiences deep inner conflict due to the tension between personal drives and social demands. The ego defense mechanisms used by Haia, such as rationalization and sublimation, play an important role in maintaining her psychological balance. In addition, the social and cultural environment also influences the formation of Haia's self-identity, creating a dilemma between fulfilling external expectations and pursuing personal happiness. Haia's identity transformation process reflects the search for meaning and self-acceptance that are essential in achieving psychological balance. The implications of this analysis suggest that literature can function as a mirror of life, reflecting the psychological dynamics experienced by individuals in society.

Adaptive approach is an intervention strategy that places the unique needs of each child with mild autism as the center of attention, so that learning and therapy methods are flexibly adjusted to individual characteristics and abilities. This literature review examines how adaptive approach can increase the independence of children with mild autism through the active role of parents and the implementation of structured daily activities. Parents act as the main partners in the learning process, not only providing emotional support, but also becoming facilitators who help children apply the skills learned at school into everyday life at home. Structured daily activities provide clear and consistent routines, helping children understand and anticipate activities, thereby reducing anxiety and increasing focus in carrying out tasks. Stimulus-response techniques are an effective method in developing children's adaptive behavior, with positive reinforcement that motivates children to continue learning and repeating independent behavior. Close collaboration between teachers, therapists, and parents creates an adaptive and consistent learning environment, which allows children to develop independence gradually and sustainably. This study confirms that holistic interventions involving full support from parents and the implementation of structured daily activities are the keys to success in increasing the independence of children with mild autism.
