Identification Of Student’s Psychological Wellbeing On Pondok Pesantren

Abstract

The myriad of problems faced by freshmen, especially those related to psychological well-being, prompted this research. In Indonesia, each Islamic boarding school has different characteristics due to various regulations and curriculum models. For new students, this causes various inconveniences, learning challenges, adaptation challenges, and others. This study tries to determine the psychological well-being of students to assist in planning reinforcement and assist in solving problems presented by new students. The survey is a research methodology used in this study. The psychological well-being scale is the instrument used to collect data. According to research, 76% of first-year students struggle with mental health issues. New student concerns support these findings, including dissatisfaction with their student accommodations, their desire to return home, and their difficulty making friends. Some pesantren students show disobedient behavior towards the rules at the pesantren, frequently arrive late for several pesantren activities, and get frustrated quickly with their buddies.
