The results found that individuals with high Extraversion traits, agreeableness, and low emotional stability (neuroticism) were more susceptible to social overload. This study also found that individuals who use social media for about one to two hours are still considered safe, compared to individuals who play social media for more than three hours. Therefore, the recommended time for using social media is no more than 3 hours a day. </em></p> 2025-06-24T00:02:38+08:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://journal.poltekip.ac.id/jci/article/view/562 The Influence of Social Anxiety on Problematic Internet Use (PIU) Among University Students in Makassar 2025-06-24T14:55:36+08:00 Nova Alsa Sabila Milenia novalsabilam01@gmail.com Nur Fitriany Fakhri nurfitriany.fakhri@unm.ac.id Tri Sulastri trisulastri99@unm.ac.id <p><em>The development of technology has led to the increasing use of the internet in daily life. However, behind its benefits, excessive internet use can trigger problematic behavior known as problematic internet use (PIU). PIU is characterized by difficulty controlling internet use to the point that interferes with social, academic and psychological functioning. One factor suspected to contribute to PIU is social anxiety. This study aims to exemine the influence of social anxiety on problematic internet use among students in Makassar. This research employed a quantitative method with 308 students. The sampling technique used was accidental sampling. The results showed that social anxiety significantly influences problematic internet use among university students in Makassar, with a significance value of 0.000 (p &lt; 0.05). The R square value was 0,358, indicating that the contribution of social anxiety to problematic internet use among students in Makassar is 35.8%, with a positive influence direction, illustrating that the higher the social anxiety, the higher the problematic internet use. These findings contribute to the development of theories on the effect of social anxiety on problematic internet use and encourage students to be more aware of the importance of managing social anxiety to avoid maladaptive internet use.</em></p> 2025-06-24T00:00:00+08:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://journal.poltekip.ac.id/jci/article/view/563 The Effectiveness of Gratitude Letter Writing Intervention on Increasing Subjective Well-Being in High School Students 2025-06-24T15:18:38+08:00 Resekiani Mas Bakar resekiani_masbakar@unm.ac.id Afrilla Fitri Angreni afrilla_angreni@yahoo.com Ildiniah Faranita Kakiet ildiniahfkakiet055@gmail.com M.

This study explores the effectiveness of five days of gratitude letter writing intervention aimed at improving SWB among high school students. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group was employed involving twenty participants, divided equally into an experimental group that engaged in daily gratitude letter writing for five consecutive days, and a control group without intervention. Subjective well-being was assessed using the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) and the Positive Affect and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS). The findings revealed no statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups following the intervention. Despite the lack of significant improvement, the experimental group showed a positive trend in affect balance, suggesting potential benefits of the intervention. These results imply that short-term interventions may not be sufficient to produce immediate measurable changes in SWB, highlighting the importance of longer intervention periods and the inclusion of social support mechanisms. Future studies should aim to extend intervention duration and integrate social context factors to better facilitate emotional and psychological growth in adolescents. This study contributes to understanding the limitations and possibilities of gratitude-based interventions in enhancing adolescent well-being, suggesting that sustained practice and supportive environments are crucial for meaningful improvements.</em></p> 2025-06-24T00:00:00+08:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://journal.poltekip.ac.id/jci/article/view/561 THE The Relationship between Religiosity and Hardiness in Students Working on Their Thesis at the Faculty of Psychology, Makassar State University 2025-06-24T15:52:30+08:00 Tiara Angreni iamtiaraangreni12@gmail.com Ahmad Razak ahmad7106@unm.ac.id Novita Maulidya Jalal novitamaulidyajalal@unm.ac.id <p><em>Hardiness is a trait that plays an important role in dealing with stressful situations.

This study used a quantitative correlation approach involving 168 students as respondents. The scale used in this study is the Hardiness and Religiosity scale.

The research method used is a normative legal approach combined with library research. This study analyzes regulations related to the juvenile criminal justice system and the role of the National Narcotics Board (BNN) in addressing narcotics issues, including prevention, rehabilitation, and supervision. The results show that despite various laws protecting children, implementation in the field still faces significant challenges, particularly in terms of access to rehabilitation services and public legal awareness. Moreover, BNN’s preventive efforts through education and outreach programs in schools still need strengthening.

The results of this study indicate that mothers experience various emotional stress, namely sadness, disappointment, shock, anger, blaming themselves to wanting to end their lives. In addition, mothers face social stigma in the eyes of the community by blaming mothers for cases experienced by children. Social support from the family, UPTD PPA, plays a very important role in the role of a mother's adaptation not to blame herself for what her child experiences.
