Human Self Structure in Islamic Psychology

abdul rahman — 2025-06-06

In Islamic psychology, the study of the human self refers to a deep understanding of human nature and essence as explained in the Quran. Terms such as al-ins, al-basyar, al-qalb, and al-aql play an important role in understanding this concept. Al-ins and al-basyar are often used to describe humans in general. Al-basyar emphasizes the physical and biological aspects of human beings, reflecting humanity in its visible physical form. In contrast, al-ins more often refer to humans in both social and spiritual contexts. Al-qalb (heart) in the Qur'an goes beyond the physical sense, encompassing the spiritual and emotional center of man. In Surah Al-Hajj (22:46), it is stated that blindness refers to the blindness of the heart, not the eyes. Al-aql (intellect) refers to intellectual capacity and the ability to think rationally. Reason is a tool for acquiring knowledge and achieving a deep understanding of life and existence.

Tania Angelica Manek — 2025-04-28

This study examines the influence of Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) on TikTok addiction among emerging adults (18-25 years) in Indonesia. The research employs a quantitative approach with data collected from 105 participants through online questionnaires. Using the Fear of Missing Out Scale (FoMOS) and TikTok addiction Scale (SMAS), the study finds a significant positive relationship between FoMO and TikTok addiction, with FoMO contributing 70.4% to TikTok addiction variability (R²=0.704, p<.001). Results reveal that 63.81% of participants spend 4-5 hours daily on TikTok, primarily viewing updates (73.3%), with fashion, culinary, and travel content most preferred. The findings suggest that the higher the level of FoMO, the greater the addiction tendency to TikTok. This research addresses a notable gap in understanding how FoMO specifically influences TikTok addiction among emerging adults, providing valuable insights for developing targeted interventions aimed at promoting healthier social media usage patterns in this vulnerable demographic group

Enhancing Self-Confidence in Low-Income Adolescents Through Person-Centered Therapy: A Qualitative Case Study

Novia Purba — 2025-06-06

Self-confidence is essential in adolescent development, particularly for social interactions, public speaking, and decision-making. Adolescents with low self-confidence often withdraw, feel anxious in social situations, and struggle with decisions. Previous research has linked self-confidence to both academic and social success. However, studies on effective psychological interventions to improve self-confidence in adolescents from low socioeconomic backgrounds remain scarce. This study focuses on a 19-year-old adolescent from an economically disadvantaged family. Despite academic potential and personal strengths, the subject experiences self-doubt and fear of self-expression. Person-centered therapy (PCT) was chosen as an appropriate intervention to enhance self-confidence. This research evaluates the effectiveness of PCT in promoting self-acceptance, positive self-perception, and confidence in social settings. Qualitative methods were employed to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention. The findings indicate that PCT effectively boosts self-confidence, particularly through techniques such as unconditional positive regard. This supports the effectiveness of PCT in enhancing adolescent self-confidence and psychological well-being.

Transfer of Knowledge and Forgetting in Islamic Religious Educational Psychology

Faisal Amir Toedien — 2025-05-27

This study aims to examine the phenomenon of learning transfer and forgetting within the context of Islamic Religious Education from the perspective of educational psychology. A qualitative method was employed, utilizing a literature review approach to analyze relevant theories related to learning, memory, and the process of forgetting. The data were analyzed using content analysis techniques based on scientific sources discussing the concepts of learning transfer and forgetting, along with their implications for Islamic Religious Education instruction. The findings indicate that learning transfer often fails due to rote-based, less meaningful, and non-contextual learning approaches. Meanwhile, forgetting occurs due to a lack of reinforcement, the material's minimal relevance to students' real-life experiences, and interference from other information. The study concludes that to enhance the effectiveness of Islamic Religious Education learning, educators should implement strategies that emphasize meaningful comprehension, repeated reinforcement, and contextual linkage between the material and students' daily lives, thereby optimizing learning transfer and minimizing the likelihood of forgetting.

Tri Sukmaeni — 2025-06-02

Digital marketing companies face challenges in maintaining employee engagement amidst the demands of technological change. Although career development programs are available, some employees still show suboptimal engagement. Previous studies have shown that perceptions of organizational support and resilience play a crucial role in enhancing employee engagement. Therefore, this study aims to examine these two factors as predictors of employee engagement in digital marketing companies. The approach used in this study is quantitative, employing a survey research design, and the study utilized a sample of 144 employees. The sampling technique used in this study is Random Sampling. The instruments used are the Employee Engagement Scale, a psychology scale of 12 items; the Perceived Organizational Support Scale, an instrument of 9 items; and resilience, using the CD-RISC-10 of 10 items. The results of the study showed that perceptions of organizational support and resilience have a significant effect on employee engagement, with a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). The higher an employee's perception of the support provided by the organization, and the higher their level of psychological resilience or endurance, the higher their level of employee engagement in their work. These findings highlight the significance of psychological factors and organizational support in promoting work engagement in a dynamic and competitive work environment.
