Existing knowledge indicates that responsive parenting significantly influences the quality of friendships among adolescents. However, previous research has not fully elucidated the dynamics within the relationship between responsive parenting and friendship quality. This study seeks to investigate the role of interpersonal communication skills as a mediator in relationships between responsive parenting and friendship quality. It involved 150 respondents aged 12-20 years (Mage = 16.87; SD = 2.51), comprising 50 early adolescents, 50 middle adolescents, and 50 late adolescents. Measurement of the three variables utilized scales: the Parental Responsiveness Scale subscale, the Interpersonal Communication Scale, and the McGill Friendship Questionnaires-Friend's Functions. Hypothesis testing using mediation analysis reveals that interpersonal communication skills mediate the relationship between father/mother's responsive parenting and friendship quality. These findings suggest that positive interactions between parents and adolescents through responsive parenting serve as models for adolescents in their peer relationships by enhancing interpersonal communication skills. The limitations and directions for further research are discussed.

During this Covid-19 pandemic, the Petrokimia Gresik Volleyball Club’s female athletes have to do training from home (TFH). Unfortunately, this prolonged TFH has caused the athletes experiencing a decrease in motivation and lose of training goals. This community service aimed to increase the athletes’ achievement motivation through a Virtual Goal-Setting Training (VGST). The VGST was designed and carried out in 4 sessions: introduction to goal-setting, goal identification, goal self-efficacy, goal commitment.

The results of this community service activity showed a significant increase in achievement motivation between pretest and posttest results (p<0.01). In conclusion, a structured design of VGST can be an alternative to increase achievement motivation for athletes during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Body image dissatisfaction, caused by a discrepancy between cultural-based ideal body and individual actual body, is experienced by most of adolescent girls. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of bibliotherapy on adolescent girls with body image dissatisfaction. Subjects were 15 senior high school girls, aged 14-17 years, with BMI (Body Mass Index) thin to normal, with average to high body image dissatisfaction. By using pretest-posttest control group design, the subjects were assigned into three groups, i.e. interactive and reading bibliotherapy as experimental groups and the waiting-list control group. One-way analysis of variance (ANOV A) is employed to measure the differences of body dissatisfaction among the three groups. The result showed that there were no significant differences of body dissatisfaction in the pretest- posttest and posttest - follow-up, between the three groups. It means that neither interactive nor reading bibliotherapy was effective in reducing the adolescent girls' body image dissatisfaction.

Sexual desire can be one of the antecedents for individual premarital sexual behavior. Otherwise, sexual self-control can prevent individuals from engaging premarital sexual behavior. This study aimed to examine the role of self-control in moderating the relationship between sexual desire and premarital sexual behavior. This study involved 209 emerging adults (18-25 years old) who were dating and not undergoing a long-distance relationship. The current study used Premarital Sexual Permissiveness measurement, dyadic sexual desire subscale from Sexual Desire Inventory-II, general sex-drive and stimulus-elicited sex-drive subscales from Perceived Sexual Control to measure premarital sexual behavior, sexual desire, and sexual self-control respectively. Results of regression analysis showed that sexual self-control did not moderate the relationship between sexual desire and kissing (∆R2 = 0.006, p > 0.05), as well as sexual desire and petting (∆R2 = 0.001, p > 0.05). However, self-control could be a moderator in the relationship between sexual desire and intercourse (∆R2 = 0.027, p < 0.01).
Rusunawa Penjaringan Sari 3 is flats owned by Surabaya City government with capacity 99 units. The current motorcycle parking lot has a total area 185.61 m 2 and the parking slot dimension is 2 m X 0.7 m. It can accommodate 100 until 145 motorcycles. This limitation space makes motorcycles must park randomly and irregularly, such as parking at the space for people walking and parking in parallel that can block a motorcycle that wants to go out. Improvements that we did for parking layout in this research is based on parking standard, published by Indonesia Directorate General of Land Transportation. Each motorcycle has parking alternative slot dimension 2 mx 0.85 m and the aisle width is 1.6 m and double way. Using simulation approach by ProModel, we developed 4 alternatives and compared them. The average time for residents to de-park until leave from parking space motorcycles decreased from 56.118 seconds to 17.342 seconds (alternative 1), 17.2273 seconds (alternative 2), 21.986 seconds (alternative 3), and 17.242 seconds (alternative 4).
