"Pandemi COVID-19 yang terjadi saat ini dapat memicu dialaminya distres psikologis pada remaja atau memperparah distres psikologis yang sudah dialami sebelumnya. Dalam menghadapi hal tersebut, harapan dapat dilihat sebagai salah satu faktor protektif dalam kesehatan mental individu, khususnya di masa pandemi COVID-19 saat ini. Maka dari itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mencari tahu kontribusi harapan terhadap distres psikologis pada remaja madya dalam konteks pandemic COVID-19 di Indonesia. Studi dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan meminta partisipan mengisi alat ukur Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) (Kessler et al., 2003) dan Adult Hope Scale (AHS) (Snyder et al., 1991) versi Bahasa Indonesia yang telah diadaptasi. Partisipan pada penelitian sejumlah 651 remaja madya yang terdiri dari siswa Sekolah Menengah Atas di beberapa kota besar di Indonesia. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan kontribusi harapan yang negatif dan signifikan (R² =.038; F(1,649)=26.63; p<.05) terhadap distres psikologis. Harapan berkontribusi sebesar 3.8% terhadap penurunan distres psikologis. Dimensi agency thinking (β = -.068, p<.05) memiliki kontribusi lebih besar terhadap penurunan distres psikologis dibandingkan pathways thinking (β = -.151, p>.05) yang artinya semakin tinggi agency thinking yang dimiliki remaja, maka distres psikologis yang dialami akan semakin rendah.

"Pandemi COVID-19 terbukti meningkatkan tingkat distres psikologis pada remaja. Kondisi emosi remaja cenderung mudah terguncang ketika menghadapi situasi yang tidak biasa, seperti situasi pandemi. Salah satu faktor protektif terhadap terjadinya distres psikologis pada remaja adalah hubungan orang tua-anak. Dengan demikian, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki apakah hubungan orang tua-anak dapat memprediksi distres psikologis pada remaja madya di masa pandemi COVID-19. Partisipan dalam penelitian ini yaitu kelompok remaja madya berusia 15-18 tahun (M = 16.33, SD = 0,742), berjenis kelamin laki-laki dan perempuan dan berdomisili di Indonesia. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian non eksperimental. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan pendekatan kuantitatif yaitu dengan cara menyebarkan kuesioner secara daring kepada 651 partisipan. Hubungan orang tua-anak diukur dengan menggunakan Parent-Adolescent Relationship Scale. Sedangkan, untuk mengukur distres psikologis pada remaja digunakan alat ukur Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) yang telah diadaptasi ke dalam Bahasa Indonesia. Hasil uji statistik regresi linear sederhana menunjukkan bahwa hubungan orang tua-anak dapat memprediksi distres psikologis pada remaja madya dengan nilai R2 = 6,3% dan β =-0,254 yang berarti setiap kenaikan 1% nilai hubungan orang tua-anak maka nilai distres psikologis berkurang sebesar 0,254. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa semakin tinggi tingkat hubungan orang tua-anak, maka akan menurunkan tingkat distress psikologis. Maka disarankan untuk meningkatkan relasi hubungan orang tua- anak agar dapat menurunkan tingkat distres psikologis pada remaja, khususnya selama masa pandemi COVID-19.

"Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk melihat peran college adjustment sebagai mediator dalam hubungan antara loneliness dan distress pada mahasiswa baru Universitas Indonesia. Partisipan dari penelitian ini merupakan 255 mahasiswa baru Universitas Indonesia yang mencakup mahasiswa Rumpun Sosial Humaniora, Sains dan Teknologi, serta Rumpun Kesehatan yang baru berkuliah selama 1 hingga 3 bulan. Pengambilan data dilakukan bersamaan dengan pemeriksaan kesehatan yang dilakukan oleh tim peneliti Fakultas Kedokteran pada bulan September hingga November 2019. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa loneliness dapat memprediksi seluruh dimensi college adjustment, yakni academic adjustment, social adjustment, personal-emotional adjustment, dan institutional adjustment. Selain itu, dua dimensi college adjustment, yakni academic adjustment dan personal-emotional adjustment, ditemukan dapat memprediksi distress. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa academic adjustment dan personal-emotional adjustment memediasi hubungan antara loneliness dan distress secara parsial. Meski sebagian dari hasil penelitian ini sejalan dengan beberapa penelitian sebelumnya, terdapat beberapa hal yang bertentangan dengan temuan-temuan terdahulu. Hal ini mungkin terjadi karena adanya peran variabel lain dalam mekanisme mediasi antara loneliness dan distress serta adanya pengaruh waktu, salah satunya pengambilan data yang dilakukan pada 3 bulan pertama perkuliahan, yang mana mahasiswa baru mungkin masih merasakan euphoria dan rasa senang telah diterima di perguruan tinggi yang diidamkannya. Peneliti memiliki beberapa saran bagi penelitian-penelitian selanjutnya, di antaranya adalah melakukan penelitian longitudinal, menjadikan tempat tinggal, asal daerah, rumpun ilmu, dan fakultas mahasiswa sebagai salah satu variabel yang dikontrol, serta mempertimbangkan variabel-variabel lain yang dapat mempengaruhi loneliness, college adjustment, dan distress mahasiswa baru.

his study aims to identify the role of college adjustment as a mediator between loneliness and distress among freshmen in Universitas Indonesia. Participants of this study (n = 255) are freshmen from Social Science and Humanity Program, Science and Technology Program, as well as Medical Science Program that have only studied in UI for 1 until 3 months. Data are gathered along with the health check up done by the research team from Faculty of Medicine ranging from September until November of 2019. This study shows that loneliness is a significant predictor of academic adjustment, social adjustment, personal emotional adjustment, and institutional adjustment. Furthermore, two dimensions of college adjustment, namely academic adjustment and personal-emotional adjustment, significantly predict distress. These results show that academic adjustment and personal-emotional adjustment partially mediate the relationship between loneliness and distress. Some findings of this study are parallel to previous findings, but some are contradictory. This might be caused by the role of other variables in mediating the relationship between loneliness and distress as well as the effect of time, in which freshmen who have just studied for 1 to 3 months may still experience euphoria and happiness from getting accepted to their dream university. For future research purposes, the author suggests to do a longitudinal research, consider participants residence, city of origin, and faculty as a controlled variable, and consider other variables that may affect freshmen’s loneliness, college adjustment, and distress."
