ABSTRACTThis study aims to describe the contribution of Islamic Religious Education teachers in developing self-control in students at SMA Dua Mei Ciputat. This type of research is a type of qualitative or non-statistical research. Qualitative research is an intensive search using scientific procedures to produce narrative conclusions both written and oral based on analysis of certain data. Sources of data in research are the subjects from which data can be obtained. The research subject was the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teacher at SMA Dua Mei. According to Averill in M. Ghufron, self control is called personal control, namely behavior control, cognitive control and decision control. The conclusion of this study is that the teachers of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at SMA Dua Mei Ciputat are sufficient to contribute in developing self-control for students at SMA Dua Mei Ciputat. It can be seen that the PAI teacher has tried to develop every aspect of self-control, namely the cognitive control aspect by providing more information about knowledge about Islam by integrating PAI learning material with the surrounding conditions, then the control aspect. The behavior (behavior control) of Islamic Education teachers provides habituation both to students inside and outside the classroom, such as discipline, accustoming students to praying in congregation, as well as aspects of decision control, where students are given the opportunity to have an opinion during discussions conducted with the guidance of the PAI teacher. PAI teachers also provide guidance and direction to students who violate school regulations. From the various contributions of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers, it is certainly very influential on the development of student self-control, this can be seen from the habituation applied by Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers can provide positive changes to students, such as students having awareness in worshiping and participating in religious activities without coercion from the PAI teacher, students have self-confidence, and make students more interested in deepening the knowledge of Islam.Keywords: Teacher   Contribution,   Islamic   Education   and   Self-Control

AbstrakTujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji validitas konstruk dari self-control  yang digunakan sebagai alat ukur yang berhubungan dengan prokrastinasi akademik. Dalam penelitian ini adalah menggungankan lima aspek dari  Sarafino (dalam Averill,1973) yaitu: 1. Behavior control, 2. Cognitive control, 3. Decisional control, 4. Informationl control, 5. Retrospective control. Dengan 45 item  subjek penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta dari 2006-2008 yang sedang menyusun skripsi, jumlah sampel dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 122 orang. Metode analisis data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) dengan bantuan software lisrel 8.70. Berdasarkan perhitungan dengan metode CFA dapat disimpulkan bahwa semua dimensi memerlukan modifikasi model pengukuran untuk memperoleh nilai fit. The purpose of this study was to examine the construct validity of self-control which was used as a measurement tool related to academic procrastination. In this study, the five aspects of Sarafino were incorporated (in Averill, 1973), namely: 1. Behavior control, 2. Cognitive control, 3. Decisional control, 4. Information control, 5. Retrospective control. With 45 items the subject of this study were students of Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University Jakarta from 2006-2008 who were preparing a thesis, the number of samples in this study were 122 people. The data analysis method used in this study is confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with the help of lisrel 8.70 software. Based on calculations using the CFA method it can be concluded that all dimensions require modification of the measurement model to obtain a fit value.

Abstract. The study investigates how commuting strain affects daily self-control capacities at work and at home. Irritability (i.e., increased readiness to express negative emotions when facing frustration) and concentration (i.e., a cognitive control capacity that relies on attention) were used as indicators of (impaired) self-control. Based on 5-day diary data from N = 185 train commuters, we found that on days with a strenuous ride from home to work, commuters indicated higher irritability and lower concentration capacity at work. On days with higher strain during the work-to-home ride, commuters reported to be more irritable back home. Moreover, commuters with low emotional stability turned out to be more affected by commuting strain but only if considering self-control impairment at home.

This study aims to describe the types of learning resources used previously at SMA N 3 Salatiga, describe the feasibility of Biomagz Based on Local Wisdom, and test the effectiveness of Biomagz Based on Local Wisdom on learning outcomes and student’s environmental care attitude. The method used is research development (R & D). Products are validated by material and media validators, and revised before being tested. Small-scale trials (readability test) use 10 students from class X MIPA 1, while large-scale trials use class X MIPA 2 with the experimental design Pre-experimental Design with the type of Pre-test and Post-test One Group Design. The results of the study show the variety of learning resources used previously including biological, teacher, internet, biology books, and the environment around students. The Feasibility of Biomagz Based on Local Wisdom obtained an average score of 92.21% with very decent criteria. Large-scale trials with an average N-gain value 0.49 in the medium category, the average classical completeness is 85.29%, and the environment care attitude of students is based on the observation result of 92.9% with a high category and the result of the inter-student assessment is 86, 18% with a high category. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that Biomagz Based Local Wisdom is well worth and effective on learning outcomes and student’s environmental care attitude.

The human brain has the impressive capacity to adapt how it processes information to high-level goals. While it is known that these cognitive control skills are malleable and can be improved through training, the underlying plasticity mechanisms are not well understood. Here, we develop and evaluate a model of how people learn when to exert cognitive control, which controlled process to use, and how much effort to exert. We derive this model from a general theory according to which the function of cognitive control is to select and configure neural pathways so as to make optimal use of finite time and limited computational resources. The central idea of our Learned Value of Control model is that people use reinforcement learning to predict the value of candidate control signals of different types and intensities based on stimulus features. This model correctly predicts the learning and transfer effects underlying the adaptive control-demanding behavior observed in an experiment on visual attention and four experiments on interference control in Stroop and Flanker paradigms. Moreover, our model explained these findings significantly better than an associative learning model and a Win-Stay Lose-Shift model. Our findings elucidate how learning and experience might shape people’s ability and propensity to adaptively control their minds and behavior. We conclude by predicting under which circumstances these learning mechanisms might lead to self-control failure.

Self-control refers to the ability to deliberately reject tempting options and instead select ones that produce greater long-term benefits. Although some apparent failures of self-control are, on closer inspection, reward maximizing, at least some self-control failures are clearly disadvantageous and non-strategic. The existence of poor self-control presents an important evolutionary puzzle because there is no obvious reason why good self-control should be more costly than poor self-control. After all, a rock is infinitely patient. I propose that self-control failures result from cases in which well-learned (and thus routinized) decision making strategies yield suboptimal choices. These mappings persist in the decision-makers’ repertoire because they result from learning processes that are adaptive in the broader context, either on the timescale of learning or of evolution. Self-control, then, is a form of cognitive control and the subjective feeling of effort likely reflects the true costs of cognitive control. Poor self-control, in this view, is ultimately a result of bounded optimality.

Smartphones are a fundamental part of emerging adults' life. The aim of this chapter is to determine which factors play a role in “phubbing” during emerging adulthood as well as to propose and test a model of this phenomenon. We tested a model of relations between phubbing, self-esteem, self-control, well-being, and internet addiction. The following measures were used: the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale, the Brief Self-Control Scale (BSCS), the Flourishing Scale, the Internet Addiction Scale, and the Phubbing Scale. The participants in the online study were 640 Italian emerging adults (526 females and 114 males), ranging in age from 18 to 29 (M = 21.7, SD = 2.18). The results showed that the model was well fitted, particularly in postulating that a decrease in the level of self-control is related to an increase in Internet addiction, that an increase in Internet addiction increases the probability of phubbing behavior, and that the level of self-esteem and well-being do not affect Internet addiction. Gender differences, in favor of males, occurred only in self-esteem.
