Psikoedukasi sebagai upaya meningkatkan pengetahuan terkait feeling overwhelmed pada anggota kepolisian

Dwi Marva Kalisa — 2026-07-15

Police officers face high occupational stress that may lead to feeling overwhelmed, a condition that occurs when job demands exceed an individual’s capacity to manage pressure. If unaddressed, it may develop into prolonged stress or burnout. This community outreach program aimed to improve police officers’ understanding of feeling overwhelmed through psychoeducation. A participatory approach combined a brief presentation and interactive discussion, with pretest and posttest assessments as evaluation tools. The program involved 10 officers from the Community Development Unit of the East Lombok Police Department selected through an initial assessment. Pretest results showed that 80% of participants did not understand the concept, while 20% had limited understanding. After the intervention, 80% achieved a good level of understanding, whereas 20% remained in the low category. The mean score increased from 2.7 to 13, and the average percentage rose by 63 points, from 17% to 80%. Participants also identified adaptive coping strategies. These findings indicate that psychoeducation can strengthen mental health literacy and support adaptive stress management among police officers.

Edukasi fikih muamalah tentang penarikan tanah gadai produktif melalui pendekatan partisipatif pada Kelompok Tani Ciole-Ole

Iin Safariah — 2026-08-30

This study aimed to evaluate and improve the understanding of agricultural pledge (rahn) systems among members of the Ciole-Ole Farmers Group in Alamendah Village, Rancabali District, Bandung Regency. Most local farmers faced fluctuating harvest incomes, leading them to pledge their agricultural land to capital providers as an immediate economic solution. However, traditional practices often involved redeeming land with active crops without written agreements, causing economic losses or operational disputes. The community service program implemented an educational approach utilizing interactive socialization, focus group discussions (FGD), and pre- and post-test assessments to evaluate knowledge improvement. The intervention successfully enhanced the farmers' understanding regarding the strict prohibition of unilateral harvest acquisition and the financial hazards of implicit interest (riba). Furthermore, the results demonstrated that integrating multi-contract frameworks such as leasing (ijarah) or profit-sharing (muzara'ah) ensured institutional justice and compliance with Islamic jurisprudence.
