“…This program utilized the social group work method to promote the self-recognition, self-efficacy, and confidence of KCw/oSPC, and the results indicated that the group-based intervention was effective. This finding was consistent with previous research on the usage feasibility and effectiveness of social group work in child service (e.g., Brooks, 2006;Ertekin, 2014;Walpole et al, 2011). In this group-based program, KCw/oSPC had opportunities to recognize themselves in others' eyes and developed their self-understanding in the process of interacting with group members according to the Looking Glass Self Theory.…”

Objective: Kunjing children are children in need. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a pilot trial to promote the self-recognition, self-efficacy, and confidence of kunjing children without sufficient parental care (KCw/oSPC) in Mainland China. Method This intervention was a randomized controlled trial (RCT), 57 KCw/oSPC were recruited and allocated to treatment ( n = 24) and waiting group ( n = 33) randomly. Participants in treatment group received group-based services, while waiting group didn’t receive any services in this trial period. We assessed participants’ self-recognition, self-efficacy, and confidence in both groups during the pre- and post-treatment periods. Results: Group comparison results suggested that the group-based intervention was effective to promote the self-recognition, self-efficacy, and confidence of KCw/oSPC, with a large effect size as Cohen's d values suggested. Conclusion: This intervention was essential for KCw/oSPC in practice. Suggestions were provided to inform social work practice, involving integrating services, usage of group-based intervention module, and services settings.

“…There are very academic articles that discuss the way parents instill positive self-concept. Meanwhile, some research found the influence of significant other on the child's self-concept [21] [22]; likewise, those which associate it with other variables [4], [15], [17] and [23]. This previous finding suggests that people may not firmly believe that self-concept can be shaped by proper parental behavior, especially by the father.…”

The involvement of both parents is essential in the child's upbringing. Fathers mainly play a role in instilling various values and positive self-concepts in children, which will become the capital of children growing into healthy and productive members of society. In Acehnese society, childcare is mainly done by mothers, while fathers perform more roles outside the home as breadwinners and members of society. This study aims to reveal people's attitudes regarding the role of fathers in fostering positive self-concept in children. The research uses a quantitative approach. The data was gathered using convenient sampling techniques and collected a sample of 326 participants. The participants filled out the research scale, which was disseminated directly or through an online form administration. The study found that the Acehnese community showed a wide range of attitudes toward the list of fathers' behaviors in instilling a positive selfconcept in children. The results of the study implied that 65.4% of respondents had little hesitation to thoroughly disapprove of the application of the role of fathers in the cultivation of positive self-concept in children. Only 34.6% of participants believe that the list of such actions is prominent. Discussing which behaviors are accepted and which are less accepted becomes influential in strengthening the father's role in instilling a positive self-concept in the child.

“…The family is the first environment in which individuals learn many things about life. Family is also a source of self-concept and self-efficacy (Bandura et al, 2011;Ertekin & Berument, 2019). Meanwhile, self-concept and self-efficacy help individuals develop good communication skills, especially in social relations (Yulikhah, Bukhori, & Murtadho, 2019).…”

Freshmen during the pandemic faced some complex problems during their transition, including adjustments to the online lecture system and independent learning, task demands, and limited social interaction with lecturers and classmates. This condition required the ability to solve problems effectively and efficiently. The purpose of this research was to determine how emotional stability, secure attachment, communication skills, and self-esteem influence social problem-solving. Participants in this research were 702 first-year students from university X who were active and domiciled in the Jakarta Greater Area and several other cities. The measuring instruments used were the Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised Short-Form, the Self-Esteem Scale, the Interpersonal Communication Scale, the Indonesian version of the Big Five Inventory for neuroticism, and the Secure Attachment Scale. The data was collected through an online questionnaire. The data analysis technique used hierarchical regression. The results show that emotional stability in the form of low neuroticism has a strong effect on social problem-solving, and this effect is stronger when the secure attachment variables and communication skills are taken into the analysis. When self-esteem is included as the last variable, secure attachment no longer affects social problem-solving. However, the total influence is simultaneously getting stronger.
