Kajian kuantitatif berbentuk tinjauan ini dijalankan bagi mengenal pasti tahap kebimbangan sosial di kalangan pelajar pintar dan berbakat di salah sebuah kolej pintar dan berbakat di Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. Seramai 252 orang pelajar menengah rendah dipilih sebagai responden kajian bagi mewakili populasi pelajar pintar berbakat. Soal selidik kajian ini menggunakan soal selidik Skala kebimbangan sosial (Social anxiety scale) oleh La Greca dan Lopez (1998). Instrumen ini mempunyai nilai kesahan (reliability) yang tinggi iaitu dengan nilai pekali Alpha Cronbach .935. Data dianalisis menggunakan SPSS 23 menggunakan analisis deskriptif. Kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa tahap kebimbangan sosial pelajar pintar dan berbakat yang dikaji mempunyai tahap kebimbangan sosial yang tinggi (min=2.940). Usaha bagi membantu pelajar memahami dan mengurangkan kebimbangan sosial ini perlu dilakukan oleh pelajar sendiri, guru, staf sokongan, ibu bapa dan juga masyarakat bagi membantu golongan ini. Di akhir kajian ini, pengkaji mencadangkan pembangunan modul motivasi bagi membantu pelajar memahami serta dapat menyesuaikan diri dengan keunikan sosioemosi ini iaitu isu kebimbangan sosial dalam kalangan pelajar pintar dan berbakat muslim. This quantitative study was conducted to identify the level of social anxiety among gifted and talented students in one of the gifted and talented Institutions located in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. A total of 252 high school students were selected as respondents for this study to represent the gifted and talented students population. The questionnaires for measuring social anxiety used in this study is the Social Anxiety Scale for Adolescent (SAS-A) by La Greca and Lopez (1998). This instrument, with Cronbach's Alpha value of 0.935, is highly reliable. Analysis of data using SPSS 23 was done through descriptive analysis. This study showed that the level of social anxiety among the respondents were high (mean = 2.940). Measures to help students understand and alleviate these social challenges need to be taken by students, teachers, support staff, parents and the community in order to better help these groups. At the end of this study, the researcher proposes the development of motivational module to help students understand and adapt to the uniqueness of this socioemotional issue of social anxiety among Muslim gifted and talented students.
Gifted and talented students are students who possess a high cognitive level. Most preceding researches have concentrated more on analyzing students' cognitive, but the issue of students' socio-emotional well-being is often overlooked. Based on the conclusions of the needs analysis conducted among students and teachers, the principal issue among these students is the issue of social anxiety. This social anxiety issue will hinder students' true potential if one does not address it promptly. The issue of social anxiety occurs due to students' thinking fallacies, social avoidance and stress in themselves and the atmosphere. Hence, to help identify the socio-emotional problems of social anxiety among these gifted and talented students, the researchers proposed the development of the Qalbun Salim Module with the integration of Islamic counselling (Al-Ghazali Psycho-Spiritual Counseling Theory) and western counselling theory (Cognitive Behavioral Theory). This module would be developed through five phases of design and development (Design development research-DDR) using the ADDIE model approach, namely needs analysis, design and development and implementation and evaluation of the module. The development of this module is also a discovery in today's gifted and talented education. The researchers hope that this Qalbun Salim Module would help students and provide guidance to teachers, identify the level of students' socio-emotional well-being, and help establish students' potential to nurture students as Islamic Scholars in the future.
