"Mahasiswa berbakat intelektual merupakan aset yang potensial untuk mampu berhasil di bidangnya, meski demikian tidak semua mahasiswa berbakat intelektual mengalami kesuksesan karena aspek sosial emosi. Karakter perfeksionisme merupakan aspek sosial emosi yang dominan dan memiliki dampak negatif terhadap prestasi akademik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan dinamika pengaruh negatif perfeksionisme maladaptif terhadap prestasi akademik, ketika dalam dinamikanya terdapat peran persepsi ekspektasi guru dan teman sebaya. Dibahas juga peran keterampilan yang dapat membuat perfeksionisme maladaptif menjadi lebih adaptif dalam pencapaian prestasi akademik, yaitu self-compassion dan goal adjustment yang terdiri dari goal disengagement dan goal re-engagement.Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan mixed-method; explanatory sequential design untuk menguji model teoritis moderated mediation yang diajukan. Pada tahap kuantitatif delapan puluh enam responden mahasiswa berbakat intelektual mengisi kuesioner: (1) pelaporan nilai IPK, (2) Skala Persepsi Ekspektasi Guru; (3) Skala Persepsi Ekspektasi Teman Sebaya, (4) Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, (5) Self-Compassion Scale, dan (6) Goal Adjusment Scale. Hasil menemukan kondisi persepsi ekspektasi guru dan teman sebaya dihayati sebagai keinginan menghindari kekecewaan terbukti secara empiris berdampak pada prestasi akademik ketika perfeksionisme maladaptif sebagai mediator. Selain itu, ketika terdapat dinamika self-compassion dan goal adjustment sebagai moderator, pengaruh perfeksionisme maladaptif melemah terhadap prestasi akademik. Sementara kondisi persepsi ekspektasi guru dan teman sebaya dihayati positif atau memberatkan terbukti tidak berpengaruh secara signifikan pada hubungan perfeksionisme maladaptif dan prestasi akademik. Pada tahap 2 kualitatif wawancara terhadap delapan responden yang dipilih dari tahap pertama. Hasil menunjukkan perfeksionisme mengganggu prestasi akademik, persepsi ekspektasi guru dan teman sebaya memperkuat sikap perfeksionisme, dan kemampuan untuk menerima kesalahan (self-compassion) dan kemampuan melepaskan sementara tujuan utama (goal disengagement) dapat mengurangi dampak negatif perfeksionisme pada prestasi akademik.

Undergraduate gifted students are a potential asset to be able to succeed in their fields, although not all undergraduate gifted students experience success because of the social and emotional aspects. Perfectionism character is the dominant social emotional aspect and has a negative impact on academic achievement. This study aims to explain the dynamics of negative impact maladaptive perfectionism on academic achievement, when the perception of expectations of teachers and peers intervene. It also discusses the role of skills that can make maladaptive perfectionism more adaptive in achieving academic achievement, namely self-compassion and goal adjustment consisting of goal disengagement and goal re-engagement.

This study uses a mixed-method approach; explanatory sequential design to test the proposed moderated mediation theoretical model. In the quantitative stage, eighty-six intellectual gifted student respondents filled out the questionnaires: (1) GPA value reporting, (2) Teacher's Expectation Perception Scale; (3) Peer Expectation Perception Scale, (4) Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, (5) Self-Compassion Scale, and (6) Goal Adjustment Scale. The results found that the perception of teacher and peer expectations as a desire to avoid disappointment was empirically proven to have an impact on academic achievement when maladaptive perfectionism was the mediator. In addition, when there are dynamics of self-compassion and goal adjustment as moderators, the effect of maladaptive perfectionism weakens on academic achievement. Meanwhile, the perception of teacher and peer expectations positive or burdensome was proven not to have a significant effect on the relationship between maladaptive perfectionism and academic achievement. In stage 2 qualitative interviews with eight respondents were selected from the first stage. The results show that perfectionism give a negative to academic achievement, perceptions of teacher and peer expectations strengthen attitudes of perfectionism, and the ability to accept mistakes (self-compassion) and the ability to temporary let go the main goal (goal disengagement) can reduce the negative impact of perfectionism on academic achievement."

"Penelitian sebelumnya telah menemukan bahwa belas kasihan diri (SC) merupakan faktor pelindung yang harus diperhitungkan bagi individu dalam menghadapi pengalaman menyakitkan. Hal ini dikarenakan SC mampu membuat individu menjadi lebih adaptif, salah satunya dengan meningkatkan kesejahteraan psikologis (PWB). Salah satu pengalaman pahit yang menjadi fenomena umum di masyarakat yang dinyatakan berdampak negatif pada korban PWB adalah bullying. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini berusaha untuk melihat apakah ada peran moderasi variabel welas asih pada hubungan antara pengalaman bullying di sekolah (SMP dan / atau SMA), dan kesejahteraan psikologis pada orang dewasa yang baru muncul. Hasil penelitian terhadap 801 emerging adult menunjukkan bahwa pengalaman bullying (B = -0,197, p> 0,01) tidak dapat memprediksi PWB, sedangkan SC (B = 0,6798, p <0,01) merupakan prediktor PWB. Namun, tidak ada peran moderasi yang ditemukan untuk SC (B = 0,0034, p> 0,01). Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa SC bukanlah moderator tentang hubungan antara pengalaman bullying dan PWB.

Previous research has found that self-compassion (SC) is a protective factor that must be taken into account for individuals in the face of painful experiences. This is because SC is able to make individuals more adaptive, one of which is by increasing psychological well-being (PWB). One of the bitter experiences that has become a common phenomenon in society which is stated to have a negative impact on victims of PWB is bullying. Therefore, this study seeks to see whether there is a moderating role for the compassionate variable in the relationship between experiences of bullying at school (junior high and / or high school), and psychological well-being in emerging adults. The results of the study on 801 emerging adults showed that the bullying experience (B = -0.197, p> 0.01) could not predict PWB, while SC (B = 0.6798, p <0.01) was a predictor of PWB. However, no moderating role was found for SC (B = 0.0034, p> 0.01). Thus, it can be concluded that SC is not a moderator about the relationship between bullying experience and PWB."

"Binge eating adalah sebuah fitur gangguan makan dengan prevalensi yang paling tinggi secara global dan terasosiasi dengan berbagai dampak negatif bagi kesehatan mental dan fisik. Perilaku ini berfungsi sebagai strategi regulasi diri untuk mengelola afek negatif yang tengah dirasakan. Perempuan dewasa muda merupakan populasi yang rentan untuk melakukan binge eating oleh karena ketidakstabilan dalam berbagai domain kehidupan dan tendensi untuk menginternalisasi emosi. Walau terdapat urgensi untuk mengembangkan penelitian terkait binge eating, masih belum banyak studi mengenai topik ini di Indonesia. Maka dilakukanlah penelitian mengenai binge eating pada populasi perempuan dewasa muda di Indonesia. Diketahui bahwa eating expectancy dan thinness expectancy merupakan faktor yang memprediksi binge eating, namun masih belum ada penelitian yang membahas mengenai proses yang menghubungkan variabel-variabel tersebut. Dihipotesiskan bahwa repetitive negative thinking (RNT) berperan sebagai mediator yang menjembatani hubungan antara kedua jenis expectancy terhadap binge eating. Dari koleksi data melalui kuesioner daring, terkumpul 193 partisipan dewasa muda berusia 18-25 tahun. Data penelitian diolah secara kuantitatif menggunakan analisis Simple Mediation menggunakan PROCESS v4.2 di SPSS. RNT ditemukan sebagai mediator signifikan yang bersifat parsial antara kedua jenis expectancy dan binge eating.

Binge eating is the most prevalent features of eating disorders and is associated with a range of negative health outcomes. Binge eating serves as a self-regulatory strategy to manage negative affect. Female young adults are categorized as a vulnerable population to develop binge eating due to instability in various life domains and the tendency to internalize emotions. Despite the urgency to further research binge eating, the studies on this topic in Indonesia is limited. Indonesia is known to have the highest level of food consumerism compared to other Southeast Asian countries. Therefore, a study on binge eating in young adult female population in Indonesia was conducted. Eating and thinness expectancy were found to be factors predicting binge eating, however there’s not much explanation about the process linking both beliefs towards binge eating. It is hypothesized that repetitive negative thinking (RNT) acts as mediator that bridge the relationship between both expectancies and binge eating. 193 female young adults age 18-25 years were collected through online questionnaire. The research data were processed through Simple Mediation analysis using PROCESS v4.2 in SPSS. RNT was found to be a significant partial moderator that bridges the relation between both expectancies and binge eating."
