  The Silent Erosion: Investigating Body Shaming's Influence on Student Self-Esteem and Its Counseling Implications at SMA PGRI Depok

  ×

  This study aimed to examine the significant contribution of body shaming to self-esteem among students at SMA PGRI Depok. This was a quantitative, correlational study that employed a simple linear regression analysis technique. A sample of 138 students from the total population in classes ten and eleven was selected using a simple random sampling method. Research instruments, in the form of questionnaires, underwent validity and reliability testing using SPSS Statistics version 20. The findings revealed that the coefficient of determination (R²) for body shaming was 0.273. This indicated that body shaming contributed 27.3% to self-esteem, while 72.7% of the remaining variance was influenced by other factors. It was concluded that a higher experience of body shaming among students led to lower levels of self-esteem at SMA PGRI Depok.

  From Wounds to Self-Worth: Understanding the Psychological Link Between Self-Esteem and Self-Harm Among Students

  ×

  Self-harming behavior has become an important mental health concern among adolescents and is frequently associated with various psychological factors, including self-esteem. This study aimed to examine the effect of self-esteem on self-harm among junior high school students and to identify its implications for school guidance and counseling services. A quantitative cross-sectional correlational design was employed involving 214 Grade VIII students from SMPN 14 Bekasi, Indonesia, who were selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected using researcher-developed self-esteem and self-harm questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics version 20.  The findings revealed a significant negative effect of self-esteem on self-harm (β = -0.415, p < .001), indicating that students with higher self-esteem were less likely to engage in self-harming behavior. Self-esteem explained 31.6% of the variance in self-harm, suggesting that additional psychological and environmental factors may also contribute to adolescents' self-harming behavior. These findings highlight the protective role of self-esteem in reducing self-harm among adolescents and provide empirical support for the development of school-based counseling interventions that strengthen students' self-esteem and adaptive coping skills as part of preventive mental health programs.
