Perilaku menyontek dikalangan pelajar bukan lagi sebuah fenomena yang mengherankan. Terdapat banyak hal yang membuat seseorang melakukan tindakan menyontek, salah satunya dikarenakan adanya pengaruh sosial dari lingkungan khususnya teman sebaya atau konformitas teman sebaya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan konformitas teman sebaya dengan perilaku menyontek. Populasi dari penelitian ini berjumlah 302 siswa, sementara yang menjadi sampel penelitian adalah seluruh siswa kelas VII yang berjumlah 84 siswa. Teknik penelitian yang digunakan yaitu sampling jenuh. Pada penelitian ini, peneliti menggunakan seluruh siswa kelas VII untuk dijadikan sampel dikarenakan terbatasnya jumlah siswa yang dapat dijadikan sampel penelitian. Penelitian ini menggunakan dua alat ukur yaitu kuesioner konformitas teman sebaya dan kuesioner perilaku menyontek. Analisis data yang digunakan adalah teknik korelasi product moment Karl Pearson. Sebelum dilakukan uji korelasi, terlebih dahulu dilakukan uji normalitas. Uji normalitas menunjukkan bahwa data yang diperoleh berdstribusi normal dengan nilai signifikansi lebih besar dari 0,05 yaitu pada konformitas teman sebaya sebesar 0,200 dan nilai signifikansi perilaku menyontek sebesar 0,211. Adapun hasil analisis korelasi dengan menggunakan 84 subjek yaitu 0,579 dengan p > 0,05. Dengan demikian penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa terdapat hubungan positif yang cukup kuat antara variabel konformitas teman sebaya dengan perilaku menyontek. Kata Kunci : Konformitas, Teman Sebaya, Perilaku Menyontek Cheating behavior among students is no longer a surprising phenomenon. There are many things that make a person cheat, one of which is due to the influence of the social environment, especially peers or peer conformity. The objective of this study was to find out the relationship between peer conformity and cheating behavior. The population of this study was 302 students while the samples were all students of class VII, a total of 84 students. The method used in the study was the saturated sampling. In this study, the researcher used the whole member of class VII as the samples due to the limited number of students that could be used as the samples. The instruments were two questionnaires, the peer conformity questionnaire and the cheating behavior questionnaire. Data were analyzed using Karl Pearson product moment correlation. Before conducting the correlation test, the normality test was first carried out. The results of the normality test showed that the data obtained were normally distributed with a significance value greater than 0.05 in peer conformity and cheating behavior of 0.200 and 0.211, respectively. The result of correlation analysis using 84 subjects was 0.579 with p> 0.05. Therefore, this study proved that there was a fairly strong positive relationship between the variables of peer conformity and cheating behavior. Keywords: Conformity, peers, cheating behavior

This study aims to examine the relationships between the internal environment (IERH), basic requirement policy (PRRH), and the performance of retirement homes (PRH). 205 out of 400 questionnaires returned and used for the study. The three variables under study were IERH (8 items), the PRRH (6 items), and PRH (8 items). Reliability analysis was run and all three variables showed high Cronbach Alpha values ranging from 0.83 to 0.87 thus indicating high reliability.  The findings of the Pearson Correlation analysis suggested that the relationship between IERH and PRH is r=0.80**; p=0.00, while the relationship between the PRRH and PRH is r=0.63**; p=0.00. The findings suggested that there was a positive and significant relationship between PRH with IERH and PRRH. IERH had a strong positive relationship with the PRH. In terms of the relationship between IERH and PRRH, there was a positive and a moderate relationship (r=0.54**; p=0.00). Hence, in order to promote good performance, a RH must ensure that the IERH either meets or exceeds the expectations of the tenants and fulfils the basic requirements of PRRH.

Moderating Role

The aim of the present study was to determine whether normal sleepers with vulnerability to insomnia, via high sleep reactivity, demonstrate more sleep-related dysfunctional cognitions and behaviours and poorer psychological health compared to those who are not vulnerable. Further, the influence of stress on the relationship between sleep reactivity and psychological health was also examined. A cross-sectional survey of 737 young adult ‘normal’ sleepers from the general population was undertaken. Results indicated normal sleepers vulnerable to insomnia demonstrated more sleep-related dysfunctional cognitions and behaviours as well as poorer psychological health compared to those not vulnerable. Furthermore, the relationship between sleep reactivity and psychological health was moderated by perceived stress over the previous month and life events over the previous year. Therefore, identifying and supporting those who are vulnerable to insomnia may be a fruitful avenue for preventative public health campaign to mitigate both insomnia and poor psychological health.

The article deals with the problem of achieving sustainable development. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between the components of sustainable development, taking into account the involvement of indigenous peoples in nature conservation. Climate change makes achieving sustainable development more difficult. Indigenous peoples are the first to feel the effects of climate change and play an important role in the environmental monitoring of their places of residence. The natural environment is the basis of life for indigenous peoples, and biological resources are the main source of food security. In the future, the importance of bioresources will increase, which is why economic development cannot be considered independently. It is assumed that the components of resilience are interrelated and influence each other. To identify this relationship, a model for the correlation of sustainable development components was developed. The model is based on the methods of correlation analysis and allows to determine the tightness of the relationship between economic development and its ecological footprint in the face of climate change. The correlation model was tested on the statistical materials of state reports on the environmental situation in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Yugra. The approbation revealed a strong positive relationship between two components of sustainable development of the region: economy and ecology.

BACKGROUND The use of social media or social networking sites (SNS) is increasing across all age groups, and one of the primary motives of using SNS is to seek health-related information. Although previous research examining the effect of SNS use on depression exist, studies regarding the effect of SNS use for health purpose on depression is limited. OBJECTIVE Our study aims to explore the relationship between SNS use for health purpose and depression across the four age groups (18-34 years old, 35-49 years old, 50-64 years old, and above 65 years old). METHODS A sample of 6,789 adults aged 18 and older was extracted from a 2017 and 2018 Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS). Univariate and bivariate analyses to examine the association between each variable and four age groups were conducted. Multiple linear regression analyses to predict depression level among participants with use of SNS for health purpose were conducted. RESULTS SNS use for health purpose and depression were positively associated for three age groups but not for those 65 years or older (=0.13, P<0.05; =0.08, P<0.05; =0.09, P<0.05). Income and self-reported health status indicated an inverse relationship for all age groups. The relationship with marital status differed based on age group with 18 and 34 years old showing an inverse relationship (=-0.13, P<0.01) while 65 years or older showing a positive relationship (=0.06, P<0.05). Gender was positively associated among those in the 35-49 years old (=0.09, P<0.05) and 65 years or older (=0.07, P<0.05). Being Non-Hispanic White was positively associated with depression among 50-64 years old (=0.07, P<0.001) and 65 years or older (=0.08, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Age-tailored education on determining accurate and reliable information shared via SNS is needed to reduce depressive symptoms.
