The subjects in this research were 14 people of Yogyakarta universities with a semester range from the first semester until the third semester. Subjects were divided into two groups, experimental group, and control group. Data analysis was used Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney U tests. Wilcoxon tests, the results obtained were p=0.027 and z=-2.207, meaning that there was a significant difference in self-confidence assessment before and after treatment. Meanwhile, Mann Whitney U test resulted in p=0.014 and z=-2.464, meaning that there was a significant difference in self-confidence scores between the experimental group and the control group

The research method used is quantitative method with measuring instruments used are independence scale, self-confidence scale, and social support scale. The data analysis used was multiple linear regression analysis technique using the Statistical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) 16.0 for windows computer program. The results of the major hypothesis obtained a regression value of R = 0.609 with p = 0.003 (p <0.05). This shows that there is a very significant relationship between the variables of self-confidence and social support with independence. The first minor result is r = 0.578 with p = 0.000 (p <0.01), meaning that there is a very significant positive relationship between self-confidence and independence. Furthermore, the second minor result is r = 0.062 with p = 0.473 (p <0.05), meaning that there is no relationship between social support and independence. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the self-confidence variable provides an effective contribution of 35.08% to independence

Profiling bakat menggunakan Employee Aptitude Survey (EAS): Dapatkah menjadi prediktor Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif (IPK)?

AbstractGrade Point Average (GPA) the cumulative value achieved by a university student, is one of the criteria in job selection. However, not all students get the minimum GPA threshold required. Aptitude is a factor that may predict the GPA. The aim of this study is to examine aptitude as a predictor of GPA in university students. The hypothesis is aptitudes in the Employee Aptitude Survey (EAS) are able to predict students’ Grade Point Average (GPA). The research participants were 380 university students chosen by incidental sampling. The EAS was used to measure aptitude, with the reliability of each subtest that was adequate and met the validity index based on confirmatory analysis. GPA was known from a self-report questionnaire. The analysis was performed using Kendall's Tau statistical analysis technique. In general, speed and visual accuracy aptitude is the only aptitude measured with EAS that is unable to predict GPA. There were different aptitude profiles between students majoring in natural and social sciences. Based on the results, nine subtests in the EAS that significantly predict GPA may be used in selecting new students in the university.Keywords: Employee Aptitude Survey (EAS); GPA; university student. AbstrakIndeks Prestasi Komulatif (IPK) yang merupakan nilai kumulatif yang dicapai oleh setiap mahasiswa di Perguruan Tinggi, sampai dengan saat ini masih menjadi salah satu kriteria dalam seleksi pekerjaan. Namun tidak semua mahasiswa memperoleh IPK sesuai dengan batas minimal yang dipersyaratkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji bakat-bakat sebagai prediktor IPK pada mahasiswa. Hipotesis penelitian adalah bakat-bakat yang ada dalam Employee Aptitude Survey (EAS) mampu memprediksi Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif (IPK) mahasiswa. Partisipan penelitian adalah 380 mahasiswa yang dipilih dengan insidental sampling. Alat ukur yang digunakan untuk adalah EAS, dengan reliabilitas tiap subtes yang memadai serta memenuhi indeks validitas berdasar analisis faktor konfirmatori. Data IPK diperoleh dari self report questionaire. Analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik analisis statistik Kendall’s Tau. Secara umum, aspek kecepatan dan ketelitian visual menjadi satu-satunya aspek dalam EAS yang tidak mampu berperan sebagai prediktor IPK. Terdapat perbedaan profil bakat pada mahasiswa eksakta dan non eksakta. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, sembilan subtes dalam EAS yang mampu memprediksikan IPK secara signifikan dapat digunakan sebagai alat seleksi mahasiswa baru.Kata kunci: Employee Aptitude Survey (EAS); IPK; mahasiswa

Tests of content validity were conducted through professional judgment, while tests of functional validity were conducted via a quasi-experiment. The results showed that all the contents of the career planning guidebook were aligned with the goals of the career planning guidebook (Average of V= 0.6). The experiment results indicated significant difference in perceptions of career planning before and after the intervention (Z=-3.987; p=0.000). The findings concluded that the career planning guidebook is valid, both in terms of content and function
