Effectiveness of Narrative Counseling to Improve the Academic Self-Efficacy of Broken Home Students
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of narrative counseling in improving the academic self-efficacy of students from broken homes at SMK Negeri 1 Gunungjati, Cirebon Regency. Low academic self-efficacy in students from broken homes is often characterized by a lack of confidence in completing academic tasks, low resilience in facing learning difficulties, and doubts about one's ability to achieve academic success. This study used a quantitative approach with an experimental method using a One Group Pretest–Posttest Design. The study population consisted of 53 grade 10 broken home students from the DPK program, with a sample of 10 students selected using a purposive sampling technique based on low and moderate academic self-efficacy categories. Data collection was conducted using an academic self-efficacy questionnaire, observation, documentation, and supporting interviews. The results showed an increase in academic self-efficacy scores from 55.5 in the pretest to 82.4 in the posttest. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test obtained a significance value of 0.005 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the conditions before and after treatment. Thus, narrative counseling has proven effective in improving the academic self-efficacy of students from broken homes at SMK Negeri 1 Gunungjati, Cirebon Regency
