Transformasi digital menuntut organisasi untuk meningkatkan kompetensi karyawan melalui program pelatihan, namun tingkat partisipasi karyawan sering kali masih rendah meskipun fasilitas telah tersedia secara memadai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran Nudge Theory sebagai strategi dalam memengaruhi perilaku karyawan terhadap partisipasi program pelatihan, dengan fokus pada penerapan Choice Architecture dalam konteks manajemen sumber daya manusia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kajian literatur dengan strategi integrative review yang mengkaji berbagai publikasi ilmiah bereputasi terkait Behavioral Economics, human resource development, dan pembelajaran karyawan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa intervensi berbasis nudge, seperti pengaturan default, penyederhanaan pilihan, dan penggunaan pengingat kontekstual, secara konsisten mampu meningkatkan partisipasi pelatihan karyawan secara sukarela. Selain itu, efektivitas intervensi tersebut dipengaruhi oleh integrasi dengan faktor motivasi intrinsik yang selaras dengan prinsip Self-Determination Theory. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi konseptual berupa kerangka integratif yang menggabungkan perspektif Behavioral Economics dan human resource development, serta menawarkan implikasi praktis bagi HR leaders dalam merancang strategi pembelajaran yang lebih efektif, adaptif, dan berbasis perilaku.

This research aims to examine the implementation of group guidance services in developing a positive self-concept among students who actively use social media. The rapid development of digital technology has positioned social media as a space for self-expression, yet uncontrolled use often leads to negative social comparisons that distort adolescents' self-perception. This study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through deep interviews, observations, and documentation involving students at IAKN Toraja. The findings indicate that group guidance services, conducted through the stages of formation, transition, core activity, and termination, significantly contribute to the formation of a positive self-concept. There is a notable improvement in students' self-confidence, self-acceptance, and self-control regarding social media usage. The group dynamics provide a supportive social laboratory for students to share experiences and receive constructive feedback, allowing them to reconstruct a more realistic and healthy self-image. The implication of this study suggests that group guidance can be an effective intervention for school counselors to mitigate the negative psychological impacts of digital interaction and foster digital literacy among students.

AL-MUSTAQBAL: Jurnal Agama Islam 2025 STIKes Ibnu Sina Ajibarang

Kecemasan akademik adalah isu yang meluas dalam pendidikan tinggi yang secara signifikan mengganggu kinerja dan kesejahteraan mahasiswa. Artikel ini mengembangkan model konseptual Komunikasi Intrapersonal Islami yang didasarkan pada prinsip Tawakkal (berserah diri kepada Tuhan) sebagai mekanisme untuk mereduksi kecemasan akademik. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan tinjauan literatur, studi ini mensintesis teori psikologi komunikasi intrapersonal (dialog diri dan restrukturisasi kognitif) dengan konsep teologis Islam tentang usaha (ikhtiar) dan penyerahan (tawakkal). Temuan ini mengusulkan Model Tiga Fase: 1) Fase Pra-Aksi (Ikhtiar), di mana komunikasi intrapersonal berfokus pada motivasi proaktif; 2) Fase Tengah-Aksi (Pembingkaian Ulang Kognitif Spiritual), di mana pikiran cemas negatif ditantang dan diinterpretasikan ulang menggunakan narasi spesifik Al-Qur'an dan Sunnah (misalnya, Laa yukallifullaahu nafsan illaa wus’ahaa); dan 3) Fase Pasca-Aksi (Tawakkal), di mana dialog diri beralih ke penerimaan total atas hasil yang telah ditentukan, sehingga melarutkan kecemasan sisa. Model ini berhipotesis bahwa Tawakkal berfungsi sebagai mekanisme stabilisasi inti, yang menyediakan jangkar kognitif akhir yang mengurangi ketidakpastian hasil yang dirasakan. Kerangka konseptual ini menawarkan sudut pandang teoritis yang orisinal untuk mengembangkan intervensi konseling berbasis agama guna menumbuhkan ketahanan akademik pada mahasiswa Muslim.

Music and song lyrics serve as a means of self-expression capable of conveying messages, feelings, and representing a person's self-concept in the face of reality and social expectations. This research focuses on a semiotic analysis of the lyrics of the song "Mengenal Lebih Jauh" by Nuca to identify the representation of self-concept and individual understanding of themselves amidst complex social demands. This research aims to reveal an analysis of self-concept representation in the lyrics of the song "Mengenal Lebih Jauh" by Nuca. Using Ferdinand de Saussure's semiotic analysis approach, the researcher attempts to uncover the meaning within the lyrics of the song "Mengenal Lebih Jauh." The results of this study reveal that the lyrics of the song "Mengenal Lebih Jauh" by Nuca contain a relationship between the signified and the signifier. The lyrics of this song are not just a beautiful sequence of words, but also a form of communication that expresses very human feelings and emotional experiences. The lyrics from the first to the sixth stanzas are a series of stories that depict a person's journey in understanding themselves and others.

Konsep nafs dalam Al-Qur’an memiliki peran signifikan dalam memahami struktur kejiwaan dan spiritualitas manusia. Dalam psikologi Islam, nafs sering dikaitkan dengan dinamika batiniah yang memengaruhi perilaku dan pembentukan karakter seseorang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji makna nafs dalam Al-Qur’an melalui pendekatan semantik dan mengaitkannya dengan dimensi psikologis serta spiritual dalam proses pembentukan karakter. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan penelitian kepustakaan (library research). Analisis semantik dilakukan terhadap ayat-ayat yang mengandung kata nafs, kemudian diklasifikasikan berdasarkan konteks linguistik dan teologisnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa makna nafs dalam Al-Qur’an dapat dikategorikan ke dalam beberapa dimensi, seperti nafs ammarah (jiwa yang memerintah pada kejahatan), nafs lawwamah (jiwa yang mencela), dan nafs mutma’innah (jiwa yang tenang). Ketiga dimensi ini mencerminkan perjalanan spiritual dan psikologis manusia menuju penyempurnaan diri. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi dalam pengembangan tafsir tematik Al-Qur’an, serta memperkaya khazanah psikologi Islam dalam kerangka pembentukan karakter yang holistik dan transendental.

The balance between cipta, rasa and karsa is a fundamental concept in human beings. These three elements are terms proposed by Ki Hajar Dewantara known as the “Konsep Trisakti Jiwa”, namely: cipta, rasa, and karsa which are also known as reasoning, appreciation, and practice.  What is meant in the concept is that in carrying out everything there must be a synergistic combination between the results of thought (cipta), the results of taste (rasa), and strong motivation within themselves (karsa). This concept emphasizes the importance of balancing these three aspects to form individual character and creativity. This research aims to provide information on what can be done to balance the three aspects of cipta, rasa, and karsa; and how important the balance of cipta, rasa, and karsa is in the process of developing one's potential. Through a literature review, this research analyzes several journals from the Google Scholar website, papers, books and so on that are in accordance with the topic being discussed. The results show that someone who can unleash all the potential within themselves does not solely focus on developing intellectual abilities, but they also continue to train to increase emotional awareness, and also motivate themselves to move forward. If in carrying out everything only relies on one of them, it is likely that it will be far to reach the goal. By balancing these three aspects of creation, taste, and karsa, individuals can increase self-awareness, so that this can make it easier for an individual to explore and develop their existing potential.

This study aims to analyze the influence of self-concept and self-regulation on academic stress in students of Universitas Islam 45 Bekasi. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was used to test the relationship between these variables. Data were collected through a Likert-based questionnaire on 137 active students aged 18–23 years. The results of the analysis showed that self-concept had a significant negative relationship with academic stress, while self-regulation did not show a significant effect. These findings indicate the importance of self-concept in managing students' academic stress. Although self-regulation was not statistically significant, there was still a relevant negative relationship. The implication of this study is the need for self-concept development programs to support student well-being, while improving self-regulation can be considered in other contexts. This study provides new insights into managing academic stress and supports more effective interventions in higher education settings.
