The Construction sector has a higher risk of accidental employment compared to other labor sectors in Indonesia. Therefore, it is important for construction workers to have knowledge of the dangers and vulnerability that can occur. This study aims to determine the effect of trait big personality five and self-control against risk taking behavior in construction workers. Sample amounted to 213 construction workers taken by accidental sampling technique. Instruments used in this study there are three scales, namely scale DOSPERT (Domain Specific Risk Taking), scale of five inventory and scale of self-control scale. Test the validity of the measuring instrument using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) technique. While the data analysis using multiple regression techniques. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant influence of the trait of big five personality and self-control on risk taking behavior in construction workers. The amount of influence of all independent variables on risk taking behavior is 40.4%, while the rest is influenced by other variables outside this research. While the results of the analysis of the proportion of variance of each variable separately, found the largest contribution to risk taking behavior is neuroticism, agreeableness, openness to experience, conscientiousness of the big five personality trait, and self-control variables. This research will get better results when using a wider population, in order to obtain more diverse data and can compare with factors that have not been studied.
Research on creativity as an attitude, thinking ability, and creative behavior developed in the education sphere is profoundly related to positive things. Meanwhile, the research for negative creativity or the allegedly dark side of creativity is still very limited both in education and in the industrial world. This study examines the influence of internal factors (personality and intelligence) and external factors (organizational climate and organizational culture) on positive and negative creativity. The sample comprised 180 government employees in a ministry office and 150 private employees at a well-known insurance company in Jakarta. The results of this study show that for government employees, positive creativity mainly influenced by internal factors, namely the openness personality type, and none of the external factors affects. Simultaneously, negative creativity influenced by external factors, particularly the goal-oriented organizational climate, and none of the internal factors affects. On the other hand, private employees have various positive creativity influenced by internal factors (such as extraversion personality and neuroticism) and also external factors (the culture of cooperation and customer orientation). In contrast, negative creativity influenced by external factors of the organization, specifically the internal process that runs within the organization.
Teenage years determines success in the future. Good teenagers are who are responsible to their own success in the future, known as future orientation. Given how important future orientation is, researchers examined variables which affect future orientation, thus future orientation can be optimalized. Dimensions of social support and self-efficacy chosen as independent variables. Respondents of this study were 326 students of one of high school in Jakarta. Future orientation, measured using Orientation Test–Revised developed by Scheir, Carver, and Bridges (1994). Social Support, measured using The Social Provisions Scale developed by Cutrona and Russel (1987). Self-efficacy, measured using General Self-efficacy Scale developed by Bosscher and Smit (1998). Instruments' validity were tested using Confirmatory Factor Analysis and data was analysed using Multiple Regression Analysis. α=0.05, result of this study shows future orientation was affected by dimensions of social support, self-efficacy, and interaction between reassurance and self-efficacy with R-square = 30.3%.
This study aimed to examine the prediction of religiosity, peer attachment, instagram on hedonic behavior. Hedonic behavior is a pattern of life that directs its activities to seek the pleasure of life, so that the forms of behavior that are raised in hedonic behavior usually spend more time outside the home to have fun with friends, love to give things that are not needed, and always want to be attention to the surrounding environment (Well and Tigert in Engel, [18]). The design used in this study was multiple regression research design. The result showed that: (1) religiosity, peer attachment, instagram contributed effect about 18.2% (R2 = 0.182) on hedonic behavior. (2) Based on the results of hypothesis testing of each variable that has been carried out there are three independent variables that have a significant effect on hedonic behavior, namely sinful acts by religiosity, instagram usage, and number of followers.
This study aims to develop standard measurement tools from hedonistic behavior using the perspective of the Rasch measurement model. The evaluation of psychometric characteristics conducted in this study (1) to check unidimensionality, (2) testing local independence assumptions, (3) testing scale rating diagnostics, (4) testing item fit, (5) reliability for person and items, and (6) displays the wright map and test information function to compare people and items on the same scale and find out the functioning of the test when given to individuals with the level of trait obtained. The sample in this study were 335 hijab-wearing Muslim women. Rasch analysis results show that the psychometric characteristics obtained are very good and precise, as well as the suitability of the items to the model. With this, the measuring instrument developed by researchers was named the Female Hedonistic Behavior Scale (FHBQ) with 14 valid items from the Rasch rating scale model from the measurement model perspective.
Parental acceptance has an important role in determining successful parenting. Parents who can accept are positively sensitive to their children’s needs and children’s development. In this case, Porter Parental Acceptance Scale (PPAS) was used to measure the degree to which parents may be said to accept their children. This study aims to examine the construct validity of PPAS on 200 parents of autistic children in Indonesia. Data were collected using non-probability sampling techniques and administered through online questionnaires. Data were analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The result show that the model was classified as fit with Chi-Square = 611.33, df = 579, P-Value = 0.17045, RMSEA = 0.017. All items are valid, except item numbers 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 34, 38. The implication is PPAS can be used to measures parental acceptance levels as indicated by the feelings and behaviors expressed toward their child.

This researchsupported previous reasearches about anxiety of academic procrastination. Suggestions relatedto the result‟s research was discussed.
The Technology gives much anvantages for adolescent to interact with other people. But the other hand, that is asociated with cyberbullying. Cyberbullying behavior is a digital form of bullying, having similarities in terms of repetition, intentional harm, and an imbalance between bullier and victims, only cyberbullying is done using electronics. There are life satisfaction and social support that can reduce cyberbullying behavior. 255 students (male 39.2%, female 60.8%) of vocational high school in Bogor aged 15-19 years, that use handphone and active in social media, completed selfreport questionnaire. That are Cyberbullying Offending Scale (COS: [13]), Multidimensional Student Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS: [38]), and Interpersonal Social Evaluation List (ISEL: [40]). CFA analysis used to compute construct validity and multiple regression to test hipotesis. It was found that life satisfaction and social support had a significant influence on cyberbullying behavior (R-square=0.098). The samples studied were found that someone with low level in living environment satisfaction and appraisal support, and then high level in self satisfaction will not do cyberbullying.
