Vol. 6 No. 2 (2025)
This issue reaffirms Jurnal Penelitian Ilmu-Ilmu Sosial (JPIIS) as an interdisciplinary scholarly forum that brings together critical inquiries into education, psychology, religion, technology, and social movements within both Indonesian and global contexts. The eight articles featured in this volume collectively address pressing contemporary social issues through empirical investigation, theoretical reflection, and methodological diversity.
Several contributions foreground educational and developmental concerns, particularly among adolescents. The study examining the role of religiosity in enhancing academic persistence among adolescents living in orphanagesdemonstrates that religiosity functions as a significant psychosocial resource that supports resilience, motivation, and future-oriented goal setting. By situating religiosity beyond a purely normative framework, this article contributes to broader discussions on educational persistence among marginalized youth populations.
Issues of intergroup relations and social psychology are critically explored in the article on collective narcissism, symbolic threat, and antisemitic conspiracy beliefs. Despite the minimal presence of Jewish communities in Indonesia, the study provides compelling empirical evidence showing how symbolic threat mediates the relationship between collective narcissism and conspiratorial thinking. This work extends intergroup relations literature by highlighting the sociopsychological mechanisms underlying prejudice formation in contexts characterized by symbolic rather than direct intergroup contact.
The intersection of educational philosophy and digital transformation is addressed through a systematic literature review of progressive pedagogies and digital integration. This article identifies both the potential of digital technologies to enhance learner agency, critical thinking, and inclusivity, as well as the structural and epistemological barriers that hinder their effective implementation. The review underscores an ongoing epistemological shift toward viewing knowledge as dynamic, co-constructed, and mediated through digital interaction.
Adolescent interpersonal development is further examined in a quantitative study on self-concept and friendship quality among female students in all-girls full-day schools. The findings highlight the central role of self-concept in shaping the quality of peer relationships, offering practical implications for educational environments that aim to support social and emotional development among adolescent girls.
Higher education quality assurance is addressed through a mixed-methods analysis of lecturers’ competencies based on students’ perceptions. The study integrates quantitative assessments with qualitative insights to provide a comprehensive picture of pedagogical, professional, social, and personal competencies. While overall competency levels are rated highly, the findings point to the need for pedagogical innovation, greater digital engagement, and alignment with Outcome-Based Education (OBE) principles.
Mental health and community-based advocacy emerge as a key theme in the qualitative case study of Griya Schizofren in Surakarta. Conceptualized as a New Social Movement, the initiative demonstrates how psychosocial support, creative economic activities, and cross-sector collaboration can humanize individuals with mental health problems while simultaneously challenging stigma and social exclusion. This contribution enriches sociological discussions on social movements and mental health advocacy in Indonesia.
The growing influence of artificial intelligence in education is critically examined in a study on EFL students’ perceptions of the use and abuse of AI-based tools. The findings reveal a nuanced awareness among students regarding the benefits of AI for learning efficiency and the risks associated with overreliance, particularly concerning academic integrity, creativity, and critical thinking. The study highlights the urgency of integrating ethical and digital literacy frameworks within higher education curricula.
Finally, a socio-legal analysis grounded in maqāṣid al-sharīʿah addresses the issue of personal data protection in the age of artificial intelligence. By emphasizing justice, public benefit, and the protection of human dignity, the article offers a normative and ethical framework for regulating AI-driven technologies. It contributes an Islamic legal perspective to global debates on data ethics and technological governance.

Vol. 6 No. 1 (2025)
We are pleased to present Volume 6, Number 1 (2025) of our journal, which features five original articles exploring diverse yet interrelated dimensions of society, culture, education, and psychology in contemporary and historical contexts.
This issue opens with “Fishermen and Consumptive Behavior: An Ethnographic Study of the Muncar Banyuwangi District Community” by Fauzi et al., which presents an immersive exploration of consumerist patterns in a coastal fishing village through the lens of Baudrillard’s theory. The second article, “Child Education in the Qur’anic Perspective” by Alfani et al., offers an insightful Tafsir Tarbawi analysis, drawing valuable pedagogical implications for modern character education rooted in spiritual values.
Yuwono’s work, “The Life of Tondo Kingdom in 9th Century,” unearths critical historical insights from the Binatbát na Tansô ng Laguna inscription, highlighting precolonial Southeast Asian sociopolitical networks. Meanwhile, Aldi and Khairanis present “History and Culture of Minangkabau in Educational Perspective,” a compelling argument for integrating indigenous cultural values into today’s character education curricula.
Finally, “Understanding Extraversion in Indonesian Adolescents” by Rafiqoh et al. examines adolescent personality traits in the school context, offering practical contributions for education and mental health professionals.
We invite scholars and practitioners to engage with the ideas presented here and to consider submitting their own work for future issues. As we continue to build a space for interdisciplinary dialogue, your research contributions are essential in advancing meaningful academic discourse.
Vol. 5 No. 2 (2024)
Volume 5, Issue 2 of the Jurnal Penelitian Ilmu-Ilmu Sosial (JPIIS) explores a rich array of studies addressing pressing social, educational, and cultural issues. One study examines strategies for improving education quality in schools with C-level accreditation, emphasizing cultural branding, staff development, and community engagement as pivotal factors. Another highlights the significance of the Panjang Jimat tradition in Cirebon, advocating for community involvement and government support to preserve this cultural heritage amidst modernization. Addressing school bullying, a case study identifies poor communication and emotional conflict as root causes, proposing mediation and education to prevent its recurrence. A literary analysis of the film Perempuan Tanah Jahanam delves into representations of violence against women and their resistance through both overt and covert means, shedding light on empowerment in the face of adversity. Lastly, a meta-analysis reveals a strong inverse correlation between self-esteem and loneliness, particularly among students, emphasizing the importance of contextual factors in understanding this relationship. Together, these studies provide fresh perspectives and actionable insights into the complexities of contemporary social dynamics.
