Pola Asuh Keluarga Dalam Pembentukan Norma Sosial Mahasiswa Sosiologi UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung
The weakening internalization of social values ​​and norms among university students demonstrates the crucial role of the family as the primary environment in character formation. The family plays a key role as a primary socialization agent, shaping an individual's attitudes, behavior, and ability to interact in the social environment. This study aims to analyze the role of family parenting styles in the formation of social norms among Sociology students, Class of 2023, at UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with purposive sampling. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The results indicate that democratic parenting styles tend to produce students with discipline, responsibility, good communication skills, and greater adaptability to social environments. Meanwhile, permissive parenting styles tend to lead to less controlled behavior and a weak awareness of social norms. The findings of this study demonstrate that family parenting styles have a significant influence on the formation of students' social norms and the development of social character in campus life.

Dampak KDRT Terhadap Anak Dan Peran Lembaga Perlindungan Dalam Perspektif Disfungsi Keluarga
This study is motivated by the high incidence of domestic violence, which reflects dysfunction within the family as a fundamental social unit. The objective of this research is to analyze the impact of domestic violence on children as a form of family dysfunction and to examine the role and challenges of women and child protection institutions in addressing these issues. This study employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation involving informants from relevant institutions, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The findings reveal that domestic violence has significant physical and psychological impacts on victims, particularly children, and hinders character development and socialization processes. Protection institutions play a crucial role as a social response by substituting dysfunctional family roles; however, they still face various challenges, including victim-related factors, social stigma, and limited facilities. This study highlights the importance of strengthening institutional roles and adopting a comprehensive approach to effectively address domestic violence and maintain social system stability..

Reproduksi Ketimpangan Gender Dalam Proses Sosialisasi Keluarga Pada Usia Dewasa Awal
This Study aims to comprehensively examine how the process of gender socialization within the family works to reproduce and internalize gender inequalities in individuals in early adulthood. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study involved 12 informants selected through purposive sampling based on birth order and gender. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and observation, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results indicate that gender socialization occurs through advice, rules, and behavioral examples, with the mother serving as the most dominant agent of socialization. Significant disparities are evident in the heavier domestic workload borne by women and the more flexible social control and permissions granted to men, which are often normalized as acceptable. Although there is room for negotiation, most of these values remain internalized as part of one’s identity. In conclusion, socialization within the family consistently reproduces gender inequality by normalizing traditional roles as a habitus; therefore, efforts to deconstruct patriarchal culture within family education are necessary.

Peran Keluarga Sebagai Dukungan Sosial Bagi Mahasiswa Perantau Sosiologi Uin Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung
This study aims to understand the role of the family as a social support system for students living away from home, with an emphasis on the quality of the bond between students and their parents. This study employs a qualitative approach using a case study method among Sociology students at UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with students living away from home and their parents, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results indicate that families provide various forms of social support, such as emotional, instrumental, informational, and appreciative support. However, the quality of the bond between students and their parents varies, which influences how this support is perceived. Students with strong relationships feel the support more acutely, while less close relationships make the support feel less tangible, even though it is still provided. These findings suggest that the quality of the bond plays a crucial role in determining how strongly social support is felt by students living away from home.

Studi Literatur: Pernikahan Berbasis Pilihan Dan Dampaknya Terhadap Kesejahteraan Keluarga
This study aims to analyze the shift in the meaning of marriage from a traditional obligation to personal freedom and its implications for family well-being in the modern era. This phenomenon arises as a result of social change, globalization, and increasing individual awareness in making life choices. This research employs a literature review approach by examining various relevant scientific sources published within the last decade. The findings indicate that marriages based on individual choice tend to produce a higher quality of life compared to conventional models driven by social pressure. This is reflected in three main indicators: psychological well-being, financial stability, and the quality of child-rearing. From a psychological perspective, couples who marry based on personal choice tend to have higher levels of life satisfaction and resilience. From a financial perspective, economic readiness prior to marriage contributes to reducing household conflicts. Meanwhile, in terms of parenting, conscious and voluntary marriages lead to healthier and more well-planned parenting patterns. Therefore, this study emphasizes that freedom of choice in marriage is not merely a form of individualism, but rather a crucial foundation for building family resilience and well-being amid modern social dynamics

Parental Burnout in Generation Z Parents and Its Implications for Parent-Child Relationships: A Narrative Literature Review
Parental burnout has emerged as a critical issue among Generation Z parents in the context of increasing caregiving demands, economic pressures, and modern parenting expectations. This study aims to synthesize empirical and conceptual evidence on the impact of parental burnout on parent and child relationships among Generation Z parents. A Narrative Literature Review (NLR) was conducted by examining peer-reviewed journal articles indexed in Scopus published between 2021 and 2026. The literature was thematically analyzed to identify major patterns, psychological mechanisms, protective factors, and demographic and cultural contexts shaping the experience of burnout. The synthesis indicates that parental burnout is significantly associated with increased parent and child conflict, reduced emotional intimacy, and diminished family cohesion, with a bidirectional and self-reinforcing relationship between caregiving exhaustion and relational difficulties. The effects of burnout are mediated by emotional exhaustion, harsh parenting, low parental empathy, and impaired emotion regulation, whereas adaptive emotion regulation, coparenting quality, social support, and family resilience function as protective factors. Gender differences moderate both the experience and consequences of burnout, with mothers experiencing greater emotional impacts and paternal burnout being more closely linked to children’s psychological well-being. Personality traits, socioeconomic conditions, individualistic cultural orientations, and urban living further contribute to variations in burnout among Generation Z parents. Overall, parental burnout among Generation Z parents represents a dynamic and transactional process shaped by the interaction of emotional, behavioral, personality, and contextual factors, underscoring the need for multidimensional and gender-sensitive interventions to break the burnout–conflict cycle and safeguard children’s emotional well-being.

Pentahelix Collaboration in the Development of Meat Tourism Village, Tampahan District, Toba Regency
This study analyzes the role and effectiveness of the Pentahelix collaboration (Government, Academics, Business, Community, and Media) in the development of Meat Tourism Village, located in Tampahan Subdistrict, Toba Regency. Meat Tourism Village holds great potential in natural tourism, cultural heritage, and local products, but the sustainability of its development heavily depends on the synergy among stakeholders. A qualitative research method using field interviews was employed to identify the internal and external participation of the Pentahelix actors. The results of the IFAS and EFAS analysis place Meat Tourism Village in Quadrant I of the SWOT matrix, indicating an aggressive position where strengths and opportunities significantly outweigh weaknesses and threats. The active participation of the tourism awareness group (Pokdarwis) and strong support from PT. INALUM are key strengths, while its inclusion in the Top 100 ADWI and central government support represent major opportunities. However, limited government budget and the threat of policy changes pose notable challenges. Therefore, the most appropriate development strategy is an aggressive strategy, which involves maximizing the full potential and collaboration of the Pentahelix stakeholders to promote comprehensive, sustainable, and community-based tourism village growth. Recommendations include establishing a regular Pentahelix coordination forum, improving the capacity of Pokdarwis and local communities through integrated training (hospitality, digital marketing, MSME management), and strengthening long-term collaboration with the education sector and businesses through MoUs and CSR programs. In addition, the Village Government and the Tourism Office should develop internal regulations and annual work plans that involve all Pentahelix elements as the foundation for the development of Meat Tourism Village. The implementation of this aggressive strategy will optimize the recognition from ADWI, the potential of MSMEs, and the trend of ecotourism to strengthen the position of Meat Tourism Village as a leading and sustainable tourist destination.

Family Cultural Transmission Shaping Digital Counseling in Education And Psychology
The development of technology-based counseling services has become an important part of modern educational and psychological practices, especially for reaching individuals and families who face limitations in accessing conventional services. However, the adoption and sustainability of digital counseling does not take place in a socially neutral space. This study aims to synthesize empirical evidence regarding the role of family cultural transmission in shaping the meaning, acceptance, and use of technology-based counseling services. The study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach with reference to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The search was conducted on the Scopus database for articles published between 2020 and 2026 and focused on the contexts of education and psychology. The selection process resulted in four main studies that were analyzed through narrative synthesis. The results of the study show that families act as agents of transmission of values, norms, and relationship patterns that significantly influence individuals' attitudes toward digital counseling. Family cultural values also shape trust in services, decision-making patterns, and the sustainability of technology-based counseling use. These findings emphasize the importance of integrating sociological and anthropological perspectives in the development and implementation of digital counseling to make it more contextual, inclusive, and relevant to educational and psychological practices in various cultural settings.

The presence of fathers in childrearing is increasingly recognized as a crucial factor in supporting children’s psychological well-being. However, paternal roles are often narrowly understood as economic providers, while emotional, behavioral, and spiritual involvement remains underexplored, particularly within Muslim family contexts. This article aims to examine the role of father presence in parenting and its implications for children’s psychological well-being from an Islamic perspective. The study employs a narrative literature review by analyzing relevant empirical and conceptual studies on father involvement, children’s psychological well-being, and Islamic values in family parenting. The findings indicate that high-quality father involvement contributes positively to children’s emotional regulation, adaptive behavior, and cognitive development. From an Islamic perspective, fathers are positioned as central figures in parenting with moral and spiritual responsibilities that serve as protective factors in fostering children’s psychological resilience. These findings highlight the importance of active and meaningful father involvement in parenting to support children’s psychological well-being holistically.

PRE-MARITAL READINESS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF FAMILY GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING
Premarital counseling plays an important role in preparing prospective couples to build a harmonious and resilient family life. This study aims to examine the role and effectiveness of premarital counseling in enhancing marriage readiness and supporting the formation of a sakinah, mawaddah, and warahmah family. This study employed a literature review method by analyzing 15 peer-reviewed journal articles indexed in SINTA 3–5 published between 2020 and 2025, focusing on premarital counseling and marriage readiness. The findings indicate that premarital counseling significantly contributes to improving couples’ understanding of marital roles, communication skills, readiness to face conflicts, and the internalization of religious and psychosocial values. These results suggest that premarital counseling plays a strategic role in strengthening marriage readiness and family resilience. Therefore, systematic and continuous implementation of premarital counseling is essential as a preventive effort to reduce marital conflict and divorce while fostering harmonious and resilient family life.

The phenomenon of growing up without a father is increasingly prevalent in modern Indonesian families. This has an impact on individual ego development, family communication, and readiness for commitment in adult romantic relationships. A systematic literature review method was used in this study to examine the relationship between these three variables. This study conducted a search of the latest literature from journals on family sociology and developmental psychology. The results show that father absence causes identity crises, emotional regulation disorders, and unresponsive family communication. Ultimately, this hinders the formation of stable commitments and increases the risk of unhealthy relationships. These results are reinforced by Ralph Linton's role theory, which states that adult relationship patterns are shaped by imbalances in family social roles. This study supports an integrative conceptual model for psychosocial interventions in fatherless families.

STRENGTHENING CHILDREN'S LITERACY AND FAMILY-BASED CREATIVE ECONOMY THROUGH THE CALISTUNG PROGRAM AT THE RANGGI LITERACY HOUSE
This research explores the execution of an integrated literacy and creative economy initiative targeting children at Ranggi Literacy House, combining fundamental academic skills (reading, writing, arithmetic) with hands-on bracelet craft activities. Employing a descriptive qualitative methodology through observation, interview, and documentation methods, this investigation engaged 20 participants between 7 and 12 years old. Findings revealed that vertical multiplication presented significant challenges for the majority of participants, necessitating dedicated guidance and support. The synergistic approach of academic instruction paired with craft production demonstrated notable improvements in children's learning concentration, foundational mathematical abilities, and personal confidence levels. Through creative economy activities, participants gained exposure to elementary production workflows and manual skill-based innovation. This study contributes a community-based integrated literacy–creative economy model for children from low-income families. Beyond skill development and creative stimulation, this initiative offers practical implications for families and communities seeking replicable empowerment frameworks in comparable settings.

PRE-MARRIAGE PREPARATION AS THE FOUNDATION FOR FAMILY HARMONY
This article aims to discuss premarital preparation as the foundation for harmony in a family. Marriage is not only the union of two individuals, but also the meeting of two personalities, two values, and two life journeys. Behind the happiness of marriage lies a long process that requires emotional, mental, and spiritual readiness. This article also reviews premarital preparation as the foundation for family harmony from a family psychology perspective, focusing on four main aspects: emotional commitment, financial management, reproductive health, and readiness for pregnancy. This study uses a descriptive qualitative research method based on literature review, examining family psychology theories and research results related to premarital counseling and family health, as well as books related to both. The results of this study show that these four aspects are interrelated and form a system of balance in the household. Through the perspective of family psychology, premarital preparation can be understood as a process of developing self-awareness, empathy, and adaptability in building a stable, warm, and sustainable family relationship.

LEGAL PROTECTION FOR VICTIMS OF DEFAMATION CRIMES THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA
The rapid development of information technology has provided ease of communication, but on the other hand it has caused new legal problems, one of which is the crime of defamation through social media. This crime has a serious impact on a person's reputation, honor, and dignity because the dissemination of information in the digital space is fast, widespread, and difficult to delete. This study aims to analyze the form of legal protection for victims of criminal defamation through social media as well as the mechanism of restoring the victim's good name in the Indonesian legal system. The method used is normative juridical with a statutory and conceptual approach, by examining the Criminal Code (KUHP) and Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions (UU ITE) as the legal basis. The results of the study show that legal protection for victims is carried out through three main forms, namely preventive, repressive, and then rehabilitative. In addition, this study also examines what the mechanism is like in restoring good name from the crime of defamation through social media which can be done through criminal channels (Restorative Juctice) and civil channels (restitutio in integrum). Thus, it can be concluded that legal protection for victims of defamation on social media not only emphasizes the aspect of punishment, but also the restoration of dignity and social justice through synergy between law enforcement officials, advocates, and digital platform providers

INCEST BEHAVIOR IN THE FACEBOOK GROUP “FANTASI SEDARAH”
Incest is a serious form of sexual violence within the family because it occurs in the home, where the victim and the perpetrator live together, placing the victim in a powerless position when facing a family member. This study aims to examine the impact of incest as a sexual crime on victims and its effects on family functioning. This research uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach and focuses on the online phenomenon of the Facebook group ‘Fantasi Sedarah’ (Incest Fantasy). Data were collected through document analysis of secondary sources, including media reports, publications from organizations working on the protection of women and children, and academic studies on sexual violence within families. The analysis combines perspectives from feminism, family sociology, psychology, and child and family social welfare. The findings show that perpetrators view victims as sexual objects and develop distorted sexual perceptions, which damage their role and responsibilities as parents. Incest leads to the breakdown of family relationships, weakens protective functions, and has wider negative social impacts. This study highlights that Indonesia’s response to incest cases remains limited, particularly in linking legal processes with victim-centered social support. So, stronger structural and cultural actions by the government are urgently needed to restore family functioning, ensure justice, and protect women and children from sexual violence

MEDIATION AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO DIVORCE DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ITS IMPACT ON HEALTH
Mediation as an alternative way to resolve marital disputes is one way to create a more equitable resolution process. The process emphasizes communication and mutual agreement between the parties, thereby reducing the emotional tension that often arises in litigation. Through mediation, disputing couples are given space to express their opinions and find mutually beneficial solutions without having to go through a lengthy court process. From a health perspective, mediation has a positive impact because it can reduce stress, depression, and psychological distress commonly experienced by divorcing couples. Furthermore, mediation also contributes to the mental health stability of children affected by divorce, as the process is more peaceful and prioritizes family well-being. Thus, mediation serves not only as an alternative legal instrument but also as a means of psychological and social recovery for the disputing parties. This research confirms that the application of mediation in divorce disputes can be an effective and healthy solution, both from a legal perspective and for the health of individuals and families.

OPTIMAL HEALTH DURING PREGNANCY THROUGH EXERCISE
Pregnancy is accompanied by physical, hormonal, and psychological changes that can cause complaints such as back pain, constipation, hypertension, and sleep disorders. If not managed, these conditions can affect the health of the mother and fetus. One recommended strategy is regular exercise. This study examines the benefits of exercise, factors influencing physical activity, and appropriate types of exercise through a review of seven articles, six national journals, and one international journal (2017–2025). The results show that light to moderate exercise, such as prenatal exercises, yoga, walking, and swimming, maintains physical health and reduces stress, anxiety, and depression. Sociodemographic factors influence participation, while myths are a barrier. It is concluded that exercise is important as a promotive-preventive strategy, and further research needs to focus on community interventions.

The era of digital transformation has changed the paradigm of information management in various organizational sectors, especially in cost management, which is an important element in strategic decision making. Rapid developments in information technology have encouraged organizations to optimize their cost management systems through the integration of more sophisticated digital technologies. This study examines the application of a digital-based cost information management system (SMIB) in an organization that is undergoing a comprehensive digital transformation. This case highlights a unique phenomenon related to changes in cost characteristics that cannot be predicted by conventional systems. The findings show that the synergy between cost characteristic evaluation and digital technology offers innovative solutions to existing challenges. The integration of technologies such as big data analytics and machine learning improves the accuracy and speed of cost data processing, providing deeper insights for strategic decision-making. This study concludes that the development of adaptive cost information management systems is increasingly relevant given the operational complexity of modern organizations. The implementation of an integrated CMIS can result in significant efficiency improvements, as evidenced by an increase in operational efficiency of up to 35% compared to conventional systems.

THE EFFECT OF THE FREE EXPRESSION METHOD ON STUDENTS' CREATIVITY IN CREATING ADVERTISING WaORKS IN SIXTH GRADE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS
This study is based on the low creativity of grade VI students of SD Negeri 105297 Helvetia on advertising material in the subject of Arts, Culture and Crafts. This problem is also supported by the lack of use of interesting learning methods in advertising learning. This study uses the free expression method as a solution to emphasize imaginative and active learning and is centered on students who are oriented towards developing competencies to improve student creativity.

THE IMPORTANCE OF INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION IN CREATING A HARMONIOUS FAMILY
This study examines the urgency of interpersonal communication between husbands and wives in creating a sakinah family, which is a harmonious family, full of love and spiritual peace as recommended in Islamic teachings. Using a qualitative approach based on literature review, this study examines various theories and scientific perspectives on the dynamics of communication in marital relationships. The results show that effective interpersonal communication based on openness, empathy, honesty, and spiritual values is the key to resolving domestic conflicts and strengthening emotional bonds. This study also highlights the importance of assertive communication strategies, quality time, and active listening techniques as constructive ways to build healthy relationships that can withstand the dynamics of differences. Poor communication has the potential to create conflict and reduce the quality of marriage, while healthy communication can be a means of fostering a family that is whole, stable, and in line with the ideals of sakinah mawaddah wa rahmah. These findings are expected to contribute to the development of Islamic family law studies and marriage counseling in the context of Indonesian religious society.

In this practical era, it is easy for people to access the internet anywhere and anytime. This can be done by parents, especially millennials, to access information about good parenting patterns. However, if internet access is not used wisely, the opposite will happen, and bad things will easily occur in the household, both to children and parents. This study aims to examine the types of parenting styles applied by millennial parents to their children, along with the challenges faced and the perceived impact on child development. This study is a qualitative descriptive study that aims to describe the analysis of parenting styles in millennial families in modern society.

Studi Literatur: Strategi Penyuluhan Agama dalam Meningkatkan Kesadaran Jamaah terhadap Pelecehan Seksual oleh Tokoh Agama
Kasus pelecehan seksual yang melibatkan tokoh agama menjadi perhatian serius dalam masyarakat. Tokoh agama yang seharusnya menjadi panutan moral dan spiritual justru dalam beberapa kasus terbukti melakukan tindakan yang mencederai martabat kemanusiaan. Fenomena ini tidak hanya merusak citra lembaga keagamaan, tetapi juga menimbulkan trauma mendalam bagi para korban serta menurunkan kepercayaan jamaah terhadap institusi keagamaan. Salah satu penyebab utama lemahnya respons masyarakat terhadap pelecehan seksual oleh tokoh agama adalah kurangnya kesadaran dan pemahaman jamaah tentang bentuk, dampak, serta mekanisme perlindungan terhadap pelecehan seksual. Dalam konteks ini, penyuluhan agama memiliki peran strategis sebagai sarana edukasi dan pencegahan. Penyuluhan yang efektif dapat meningkatkan literasi jamaah mengenai isu kekerasan seksual, membangun keberanian untuk melapor, serta menciptakan lingkungan keagamaan yang aman dan suportif bagi semua pihak. Namun demikian, hingga saat ini masih terbatas kajian yang secara spesifik mengkaji strategi-strategi penyuluhan agama yang mampu menumbuhkan kesadaran jamaah akan bahaya dan realitas pelecehan seksual yang dilakukan oleh figur keagamaan. Oleh karena itu, studi literatur ini penting dilakukan untuk mengidentifikasi berbagai pendekatan, metode, dan materi penyuluhan yang terbukti efektif berdasarkan temuan-temuan sebelumnya.
