The development of digital technology in the current era has opened up opportunities for the use of digital media as a tool in the therapy process for children with ADHD. This study aims to analyze the effect of digital technology use in therapy services for children with ADHD, identify the challenges faced by therapists, and formulate recommendations for the appropriate and safe use of digital technology. The study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study method. The research subjects consisted of four therapists who provided therapy services to children with ADHD at a special needs child development therapy institution in Metro City, Lampung Province. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interviews and direct observation, then analyzed thematically. The results showed that the use of digital media can have a positive impact in the form of increased focus, motivation, and involvement of children in therapy, as well as helping to develop self-control skills. However, the use of digital media also poses challenges and negative impacts such as the risk of excessive distraction, gadget addiction, sleep pattern disorders, and limited digital competence of therapists. Therefore, the use of digital technology in ADHD therapy needs to be planned, directed, tailored to the child's needs, and supported by direct assistance from therapists and active involvement of parents.

Meanwhile, perception is a response or assessment that varies from a stimulus object and produces a response so that there will be different responses or assessments from students towards guidance and counseling services. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between the intensity of participating in guidance and counseling services and students' perceptions of guidance and counseling services. This type of research is quantitative correlational research. With a population of 212, the sample was taken using the stratified random sampling method. From this sampling method, there were a total sample of 47 students from classes X, XI and XII TJKT. The data obtained, namely the positive correlation between intensity and perception, was declared significant because the p-value was below 0.05, namely 0.013. Then the result of the product moment value of Pearson's r is 0.363. From these results, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between intensity and perception, but it is not close to a significance of 1%.

2026-06-12T08:43:14+07:00

Bullying in boarding-based educational environments needs attention because students live in close, repeated, and not always well-supervised social spaces. One relational pattern that may influence this condition is seniority. Seniority can help junior students adapt to boarding school rules and culture, but it may also turn into a space of domination when it is not supported by clear boundaries, supervision, and educational values. This article aims to examine the dynamics of seniority and bullying behavior in boarding-based educational environments. This study used a literature review method with a qualitative-descriptive approach. The reviewed literature consisted of national journal articles, official sources, and methodological references relevant to seniority, senior-junior relations, bullying, pesantren, boarding schools, and violence prevention. The findings show that seniority has educational value when practiced through role modeling, mentoring, responsibility, and supervision. Conversely, seniority accompanied by pressure, humiliation, domination, and normalized violence can encourage verbal, physical, social, and psychological bullying. Prevention should be directed through reorganizing senior roles, assisting junior students, strengthening caretaker supervision, developing continuous anti-bullying education, and providing safe reporting mechanisms.

PENGARUH MEDIA SOSIAL TERHADAP POLA KOMUNIKASI DAN HUBUNGAN SOSIAL DALAM KALANGAN GENERASI Z

2026-06-12T16:43:16+07:00

This study is a systematic review of the literature aiming to investigate the influence of social media on communication patterns and social relationships among Generation Z. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, literature sources were selected from Scopus, DOAJ, and Google Scholar, with a publication period between 2014 and 2025.

Although negative impacts such as dependency and interference in active listening skills were identified, social media also provides positive impacts including broader global connectivity. These findings are analyzed through the frameworks of Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC), Uses and Gratifications Theory, Social Presence Theory, and Media Richness Theory. The implications of these findings are relevant for Guidance and Counseling (BK) services, particularly in the development of digital literacy programs and prevention of social media addiction among students.

REPRESENTASI IDENTITAS DIRI REMAJA KOMUNITAS PUNK DI SALATIGA

2026-06-13T10:15:07+07:00

This study aims to analyze the representation of adolescent self-identity within the punk community in Pasar Rejosari, Salatiga City, using Erikson's identity development theory, Marcia's identity status theory, Tajfel's social identity theory, and Mead's symbolic interactionism as the analytical framework. This research employs a qualitative method with an exploratory approach to understand the subjective experiences of adolescents in constructing and interpreting their identities. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation involving four informants who are members of the punk community. The findings reveal that adolescent self-identity is represented through three main aspects: physical appearance, social interaction, and self-meaning. Physical appearance such as dark clothing, tattoos, accessories, and distinctive hairstyles serves as symbols of self-expression and freedom, while social interaction fosters solidarity, belonging, and acceptance for marginalized adolescents. Analyzed through Erikson's and Marcia's lenses, the punk community functions as a psychosocial moratorium space in which adolescents explore and consolidate identity commitments, while from Tajfel's perspective, group membership provides a positive social identity and self-esteem amid stigma from out-groups. This study also proposes a conceptual model of adolescent identity formation within the punk community and discusses its implications for guidance and counseling practice, particularly in supporting marginalized youth and fostering positive self-concept.
