A Description of Self-Esteem And Agressive Behaviour of Vocational High School Students in Inter Gang Social Conflict 

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan tingkat self-

esteem dan perilaku agresif pada siswa Sekolah Menengah

Kejuruan (SMK) yang terlibat dalam konflik sosial antar geng

di sekolah. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif

deskriptif dengan metode survei. Subjek penelitian berjumlah

60 siswa yang teridentifikasi memiliki keterlibatan dalam

interaksi sosial berbasis kelompok atau geng. Data

dikumpulkan menggunakan angket berskala Likert lima

tingkat yang mengukur self esteem dan perilaku agresif. Hasil

penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat self-esteem siswa

berada pada kategori sedang dengan nilai rata-rata 3,7 (setara

55,5 pada skala 15–75). Perilaku agresif juga berada pada

kategori sedang dengan nilai rata-rata 2,5 (setara 45 pada skala

Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa siswa memiliki persepsi

diri yang cukup positif, namun belum sepenuhnya stabil, serta

masih menunjukkan kecenderungan perilaku agresif dalam

taraf menengah, terutama dalam bentuk agresi verbal pada

situasi konflik antar geng.Secara umum, konflik sosial antar

geng di lingkungan sekolah lebih dipengaruhi oleh kebutuhan pengakuan sosial dan dinamika identitas kelompok sebaya

dibandingkan dorongan agresivitas murni. Temuan ini

menegaskan pentingnya peran layanan bimbingan dan

konseling dalam memperkuat stabilitas self-esteem, regulasi

emosi, dan keterampilan penyelesaian konflik sebagai upaya

pencegahan konflik sosial di sekolah.

This study aims to describe the levels of self-esteem and

aggressive behavior among vocational high school (SMK)

students involved in inter-gang social conflicts at school. A

descriptive quantitative approach with a survey method was

employed. The participants consisted of 60 students identified

as being involved in group- or gang-based social interactions.

Data were collected using five-point Likert scale

questionnaires measuring self-esteem and aggressive

behavior. The findings indicate that students’ self-esteem was

categorized as moderate, with an average score of 3.7

(equivalent to 55.5 on a 15–75 scale). Similarly, aggressive

behavior was also classified as moderate, with an average score

of 2.5 (equivalent to 45 on a 15–75 scale). These results suggest

that students possess a relatively positive self-perception,

although it is not yet fully stable, and they still exhibit

moderate aggressive tendencies, particularly in the form of

iverbal aggression during inter-gang conflicts. Overall, inter

gang social conflicts in schools are influenced more by the need

for social recognition and peer group identity dynamics than

by pure aggressive impulses. This study highlights the

importance of school counseling services in strengthening self-

esteem stability, emotional regulation, and constructive

conflict-resolution skills as preventive efforts to reduce social

conflicts in the school environment.
