“…Además de la motivación, las investigaciones más recientes observan que el rendimiento académico puede estar relacionado también con la autodirección, el autocontrol, la satisfacción académica, la resiliencia, los hábitos saludables, la salud mental, la calidad del sueño, el agotamiento emocional, la inteligencia emocional, la depresión, el estrés y la ansiedad (Cobo et al, 2020;Garay et al, 2017;Ghanizadeh y Jahedizadeh, 2017;Parra et al, 2014;Pua et al, 2019;Salma et al, 2017;Uludag, 2016;Ventura et al, 2017;Zalazar et al, 2017). Del mismo modo, son considerados relevantes aspectos como los estilos de aprendizaje, de socialización, de enseñanza, la retroalimentación y el pensamiento (Fan, 2016;Juárez et al, 2016;Lara, 2018;Magulod, 2019;Mondragón et al, 2017;Montiel et al, 2019;Nazari y Far, 2019;Okur y Doymuş, 2014;Rojas et al, 2006;Vega y Hugo, 2018).…”

El objetivo de esta revisión bibliográfica fue identificar los factores que inciden en el desempeño académico universitario. La metodología consistió en llevar a cabo una revisión sistemática de la literatura en Web of Science (incluye Scielo) y Scopus, con ayuda del gestor bibliográfico Citavi 6 y el software de análisis de datos cualitativos MaxQDA 2020. La búsqueda reportó 1491 artículos que incluyen las categorías academic performance, academic achievement, university students. De los 1491 se excluyó una tercera parte, según los criterios socioeconómicos, culturales y educativos. Se concluyó que el rendimiento académico es un fenómeno complejo asociado a factores psicológicos y pedagógicos; sin embargo, en los últimos años se observa un auge de los discursos y argumentos provenientes de la psicología y la administración en detrimento de los análisis de los factores sociales y económicos.

“…The Indonesian short version of General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) was used to measure the prevalence of psychological distress in university students and can indicate poor mental health. 2,9,25,26 GHQ-12 is a 12-item self-report which measures psychological morbidity, both in community and non-psychiatric settings to detect psychiatric disorders. 27 The GHQ-12 was widely used to perform not only unidimensional measurements, but also psychological morbidity in three dimensions ("social dysfunction", "anxiety and depression", and "loss of confidence").…”

“…Research among Indonesian undergraduate students found that 45.7% of 495 were at risk of having distress. 2 Distress among undergraduate students can be caused by various factors.

Background Self-compassion has been considered beneficial in overcoming negative self-assessment due to inadequate coping that increases vulnerability to significant distress among undergraduate students in emerging adulthood. Methods Subjects were 552 Indonesian undergraduate students from Diponegoro University, Indonesia (M Age = 20.03; SD Age = 1,022). Sex and age category were identified for further analysis. The measurements used the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) and General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12). The GHQ-12 also measures psychological morbidity in three dimensions, i.e. social dysfunction, anxiety and depression symptoms, and loss of confidence. Data were analyzed using Spearman's rho. Additional analyzes using the Mann-Whitney U Test and descriptive statistics were also performed. Results Self-compassion had a significant negative relation with distress. Self-compassion was significantly related to all dimensions of distress, i.e. loss of confidence, anxiety and depression symptoms, and social dysfunction (from largest to smallest respectively). The correlation between self-compassion and distress in men was higher than women, both were significant. The correlation between those two constructs in late adolescence and early adulthood were also significant. Both sex and age did not significantly predict self-compassion and distress. Conclusion The existence of self-compassion could predict a lower level of distress both in general and based on its dimensions, as well as correlations based on sex and age categories. A higher correlation in men may be of concern, while the absence of a marked difference in the correlation by age category could be due to the effect of small age variation in both age categories that was still in the emerging adult period. This was also supported by a non-significant difference of each variable across sex and age category. Discussions based on cultural values were also considered.

“…This has an impact on other areas of life, such as academic achievement and career in which adolescents are exposed to academic procrastination, perfectionism, anxiety, study failure; or social situations in which they are exposed to delinquent behavior, substance abuse, withdrawal behavior, depression, or even misperception of body image which can lead to a lifethreatening eating disorder. A study on the mental health of 495 students at Diponegoro University showed that 45.7% of them were at risk of having general mental health problems, so that attention and mental health services were needed (Salma et al, 2017).…”

Evidence of the effectiveness of forgiveness meditation intervention among college students in ‘emergingadulthood’ is still limited. This study aims to examine the effect of forgiveness meditation intervention towardforgiveness, self-forgiveness, forgiveness of others, and forgiveness of situations among college students. Thisstudy used a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design with measurements follow-up two weeks aftertreatment ended. The subjects were “emerging adulthood”, as many as 9 college students from DiponegoroUniversity, Indonesia (MAge = 20.67; SDAge = 0.5; Female = 77.8%). The results of quantitative analysis usingstatistical test of Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test between pretest and posttest showed a significant increase inforgiveness (z = -2.668, p < .01), self-forgiveness (z = -2.670, p < .01), and forgiveness of situations (z = -2.384,p < .05). Testing between posttest and follow-up were not significant (p > .05). However, the test results betweenpretest and follow-up on these three variables were still significant, z = -2.668, p <.01; z = -2.673, p < .01; and z= -2.388, p < .05, respectively. In contrast, no significant increase in the variable of forgiveness of others (p >.05). The qualitative analysis and further discussions are also presented.
