Edukasi Pentingnya Self Esteem pada Remaja SMA Ali Maksum, Kecamatan Sewon, Kabupaten Bantul

Abstract

Adolescence is a period of transition from childhood to adulthood. This period of adolescent development is an important period because it will directly affect attitudes and behavior. The transition period that occurs in adolescents causes adolescents to experience biological, cognitive, socio-emotional changes including self-esteem. Individuals with higher self-esteem and positive outcomes generally have job success, better social relationships, a sense of well-being, and positive peer perceptions, academic achievement, and good problem-solving skills. Meanwhile, people with low self-esteem are causally related to depression, substance abuse, antisocial behavior, and suicide. This education aims to increase self-esteem or self-esteem in adolescents by providing an explanation and understanding of self-esteem with seminars and discussion methods. The result of this community service is that the students of Ali Maksum High School, Sewon District, Bantul Regency can implement positive attitudes and behaviors due to high self-esteem.
