Hubungan loneliness dan quarter life crisis pada dewasa awal
The relationship of loneliness and quarter life crisis in early adulthood
Abstract
Quarter life crisis is an emotional crisis phenomenon that occurs due to the unpreparedness of an individual when they are in an emerging adulthood period. Isolation carried out by individuals when trapped in a quarter life crisis has the potential to lead individuals to experience loneliness. On the other hand, dissatisfaction with the relationship was also found to be one of the factors causing the quarter life crisis. Therefore, this study aims to determine loneliness and quarter life crisis in early adulthood and examine their relationship. The criteria set are 20-29 years old, living in Surabaya, and willing to be research subjects. The sampling technique used is incidental sampling by distributing online questionnaires so that the subjects obtained were 330 early adults. The measuring instrument used is the adaptation of the Social and Emotional Loneliness Scale for Adults (SELSA) and a scale compiled by researchers based on the quarter life crisis aspect according to Robbins and Wilner. The results showed that there was a correlation between loneliness and quarter life crisis (r=0.571). The higher the loneliness score, the higher the quarter life crisis experienced by a person, and vice versa.
