Muslimah Pradhanti, Aldila, Paramadina, Nisa
Abstract: This study explores the relationship between social media usage, physical self-concept, and social anxiety among students at Universitas Persada Indonesia YAI. Social media has become an essential aspect of daily life, especially&#8230; specially among younger generations, significantly impacting various dimensions of their psychological well-being. Physical self-concept, which encompasses individuals' perceptions and evaluations of their physical attributes, also plays a crucial role in shaping self-esteem and social interactions. This research adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing convenience sampling to gather data from a sample of 200 students. The study employs three Likert scale-based instruments: the Social Anxiety Scale, Social Media Usage Scale, and Physical Self-Concept Scale. Data were analyzed using linear regression. The first hypothesis test revealed a t-value of 7.816, with a corresponding significance (Sig) value of 0.000, which is below the 0.05 threshold. This result supports the first hypothesis, indicating a positive and statistically significant relationship between social media usage and social anxiety. Similarly, the second hypothesis test yielded a t-value of -5.887, with a Sig value of 0.000, also below the 0.05 threshold. This finding confirms the second hypothesis, revealing a significant negative impact of physical self-concept on social anxiety. Overall, the study concludes that both social media usage and physical self-concept significantly influence social anxiety among Generation Z students at Universitas Persada Indonesia YAI.

Gardyanie Hermawan, Liza
Abstract: Feelings of inferiority represent a significant psycho-social issue for individuals, often leading to difficulties in decision-making, hesitancy, a lack of assertiveness, withdrawal, and heightened emotional sensitivity.&#8230; These challenges are particularly prevalent among adolescents, who frequently compare themselves to others in their environment. Body dissatisfaction emerges when adolescents compare their actual body to an idealized version and struggle to accept their current appearance. One factor influencing body dissatisfaction is self-compassion, which can either mitigate or exacerbate these feelings. This study aims to investigate the relationship between self-compassion and body dissatisfaction among students of the Faculty of Psychology at Bhayangkara University Jakarta Raya. Using convenience sampling, 100 students participated in the study. The findings indicate a significant negative correlation between self-compassion and body dissatisfaction, with a correlation coefficient of r = -0.803*** and p = 0.000 (p < 0.05).

Hasanuddin, Hasanuddin, Manggasing, Nasir, Rivai, Abdul, Rezky Handayani, Ika, Hamsa, Ma’mun, Triani, Neni, Haryono, Dandan
Abstract: This study aims to explore and understand the dynamics of community participation in the village development planning process (Musrenbangdes) in Tambayoli Village, Soyo Jaya District, North Morowali Regency. Using a qualitative&#8230; itative approach, data were collected through purposive sampling, open data collection methods, and analysis of both textual and visual materials. The primary methods of data collection included participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document review. The findings reveal that, although some awareness of Musrenbangdes has been achieved through existing announcement systems, the overall effectiveness of community participation remains limited. Many residents perceive the process as a formality, with decisions dominated by specific stakeholders, leading to low levels of trust and engagement. The study identifies significant barriers to active participation, such as inadequate information dissemination, lack of transparency, and limited involvement in both the implementation and benefit-sharing of development projects. The research suggests that for Musrenbangdes to be more effective, there needs to be a concerted effort to enhance transparency, ensure equitable information distribution, and create a more inclusive participatory framework. These findings have implications for improving governance and promoting sustainable development at the village level.

Utami Femina Sari Budiman, Angel, Elizabeth Zega, Fonny, Rizla Humairo, Alifia
Abstract: E-sport, a rapidly growing competitive field, offers promising career opportunities for many individuals. However, the intense training regimens, isolation from broader social interactions, and performance pressures can&#8230; significantly impact the life satisfaction of E-Sport athletes. This study aims to describe the life satisfaction levels among E-Sport athletes. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed using non-probability sampling with a purposive sampling technique. The sample consisted of 100 E-Sport athletes. The Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) based on Diener's (1984) theory, comprising 26 valid items with a reliability coefficient of 0.933, was utilized as the measurement tool. Results indicate that 57% of athletes reported high life satisfaction. Specifically, 80.6% had high satisfaction with future life, whereas 60% had low satisfaction with their past life. Early adult male E-Sport athletes with incomes between 5,000,000 - 7,000,000 IDR and greater than 10,000,000 IDR, training for 16-24 hours, and participating in over 10 tournaments had higher life satisfaction. Conversely, athletes earning 3,000,000 - 5,000,000 IDR, training for 10-15 hours, and participating in fewer than eight tournaments reported lower life satisfaction.
