The Relationship Between Psychological Well-Being and Self-Esteem Among Guidance and Counseling Students Experiencing Toxic Relationships at Makassar State University
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the relationship between psychological well-being and self-esteem among Guidance and Counseling students who experience toxic relationships at Makassar State University. The study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational research design. The population of this study consists of 215 Guidance and Counseling (GC) students who are in dating relationships, while the sample was selected using a non-probability technique with a purposive sampling method. The sample in this study includes 142 GC students who experience toxic relationships. The research instruments consist of a toxic relationship scale (Fuller), a psychological well-being scale (Ryff), and a self-esteem scale (Rosenberg), all of which have undergone validity and reliability testing. The results of the study indicate that there is no significant difference between male and female students in terms of levels of psychological wellbeing or self-esteem. Based on the comparative test results, there is no significant difference between male and female Guidance and Counseling students regarding their levels of psychological well-being and self-esteem. This finding emphasizes that the phenomena of toxic relationships, psychological well-being, and self-esteem are not solely determined by gender, but are influenced by personal, emotional, social, and environmental factors.
