“…Mahasiswa yang mengikuti konseling mengatakan bahwa konseling membantu mereka untuk mencapai tujuan mereka di universitas dan membantu mereka mengurangi stress yang berpotensi mengganggu penyelesaian tugas-tugas akademis (Kitzrow, 2009). Konseling pada mahasiswa yang mengalami gangguan psikologis juga terbukti dapat berdampak positif pada nilai akademik dibandingkan mahasiswa yang tidak mendapat konseling (Schwitzer et al, 2018). Meskipun demikian mengatasi masalah gangguan psikologis pada mahasiswa bukan hanya menjadi tanggung jawab profesional yang bekerja di institusi pendidikan namun juga menjadi tanggung jawab semua pihak, termasuk juga institusi pendidikan yang membuat kebijakan (Baik et al, 2019).…”

First-year university students are vulnerable to certain psychological disorders. Psychological Well-Being (PWB) is one of the resources they can use to face academic challenges. However, research focusing to identify PWB as protective factor among first-year university students is still rare. This study employs quantitative method involving 151 respondents from the Faculty of Psychology of University X in West Java. It uses a PWB scale composed by Ryff and Self Report Questionnaire (SRQ-20). It also employs simple multiple regression to determine the relation between PWB and symptoms of psychological disorders, on one hand, and stepwise multiple regression to find out which dimensions of PWB are significant to anticipate psychological disorder, on the other. This study argues that PWB, especially self-acceptance and environment mastery dimension, can be used as a protective factor against psychological disorders. Keywords: first-year university students, psychological disorders, psychological well-being

Background The literature regarding the effect of health literacy on college students’ psychological health and quality of life is scarce. The purpose of conducting this cross-sectional study was to examine the effect of health literacy on certain psychological disturbances (perceived stress, depressive symptoms, and impulsivity) and quality of life of college students. Methods A cross-sectional quantitative design was utilized in this study. A total of 310 four-year college students participated in this study. The students completed a demographics questionnaire as well as already established and validated measures of health literacy, perceived stress, depressive symptoms, impulsivity, and quality of life. Structural equation modeling was performed to analyze the data to explore the effect of health literacy on the psychological disturbances and quality of life. Results The results showed that health literacy has a negative effect on three psychological disturbances commonly experienced by college students; perceived stress, depressive symptoms, and impulsivity. In addition, the effect of health literacy on the quality of life was positive. Conclusion The proposed conceptual model was supported. College students’ counseling staff could use the findings to better address students’ needs pertinent to psychological health and quality of life. Future research is warranted to develop a more comprehensive model that explains the role of health literacy in determining college students’ psychological health and quality of life.

“…Students are faced with new demands or challenges in the transition from highschool to college (Novel, Ajisuksmo, & Supriyantini, 2019). Specifically, a student's problems often fall in the mental health domain when they interfere with daily health and wellness and the student experiences distress or difficulties in functioning in important areas of college adjustment (Schwitzer et al, 2018). The COVID-19 pandemic has brought not only the risk of death from infection but also unbearable psychological pressure.…”

This study investigates the self-perceived problems among Malaysian pre-university students in a public research university in Malaysia. A survey study using Mooney Problem Checklist of Measurement was conducted in Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). A total of 278 pre-university students were selected using simple random sampling. Results indicated that the level of problems faced by pre-university students is low. The study found that the main problems faced by the pre-university college students are related to their future-vocational and educational, followed by adjustment to school work, personal-psychological relations, moral and religion, social-psychological relations, health and physical development, home and family, curriculum and teaching procedures, social and recreational activities, finance, living conditions and employment, and finally, courtship, sex and marriage issues. This study shows that there are major related problems faced by the students at the pre-university level. These findings highlight the importance of considering guidance and counseling services to assist pre-university students to ensure that these self-perceived problems will not affect their emotional and academic achievement. Implications of college counseling were discussed in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. Keywords: Academic Issues, Career Adjustment, College Counselling, Pre-university Students, Self-perceived Problems
