<p>This study examines the relationship between self-control and student compliance with rules in Islamic boarding schools within a structured educational environment that emphasizes discipline and religious values. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, this study analyzed 15 empirical articles published between 2020 and 2025, sourced from national accredited journals and reputable international publications. The analysis was conducted through data reduction, categorization, and synthesis, guided by self-regulation theory and social learning perspectives. The findings indicate that students’ self-control generally falls within moderate to high levels and plays an important role in shaping compliant behavior. However, the relationship between self-control and compliance is not always linear, as compliance is also influenced by external factors such as supervision quality, peer dynamics, seniority culture, and consistency in rule enforcement. In several contexts, compliance emerges as a response to structural control rather than internalized self-regulation. These findings suggest that fostering sustainable student compliance requires an integrated approach that combines the development of individual self-control with the creation of a supportive institutional ecosystem. This study contributes to Islamic educational psychology by clarifying the conditional role of self-control in shaping authentic and enduring compliance among boarding school students.</p>Riah Pratiwi

<p>The time of big changes in education needs early learning places to be creative and flexible as technology, society, and how we learn change quickly. This study looks at how important it is for teachers to have good emotional intelligence and the ability to adapt when teaching kids with special needs in early childhood settings. The research used a qualitative method with a case study to look at an inclusive early childhood school. Information was gathered through watching what happened, talking to people, and looking at records. The findings show that teachers who have strong emotional intelligence are better at understanding the unique needs of each child with special needs and can change their teaching methods to fit those needs. Also, a teacher's ability to use technology and change how lessons are presented is very important for getting inclusive education right in today's digital world. In short, the combination of emotional intelligence and adaptability in teachers is a key part of creating a good learning environment for all children.</p>Niammil Fathni

https://ijec.ejournal.id/index.php/counseling/article/view/634
<p>Immaturity in students' career planning is often not caused by a lack of information, but rather by mental barriers in the form of irrational thought patterns and cognitive distortions. This study aims to map the overview of previous career guidance implementations, identify the methods used, and analyze the opportunities and relevance of Cognitive Restructuring techniques as an alternative approach to improving the effectiveness of career guidance services. The method used in this study was library research by analyzing literature from accredited national journals from 2020-2025. The results of the study indicate that although various career guidance methods such as classical guidance, the use of digital technology media, and problem-solving techniques have proven effective in improving professional insight and student motivation, there are gaps where students' internal cognitive aspects have not been deeply touched. The research findings confirm that Cognitive Restructuring techniques through Doyle's seven-step procedure have very strong relevance in filling this gap. This technique has a great potential to help students identify, challenge, and replace irrational career-related thoughts with more rational, adaptive, and realistic mindsets. The conclusions of this study emphasize the importance of integrating a cognitive approach into career guidance services to ensure students not only have sufficient career information but also the mental maturity to make future decisions.</p>Nurul Haerani

<p>This research aims to (1) determine the role of caregivers in the social adjustment of new students at the Al-Mubarok Islamic Boarding School in Serang City, (2) identify the challenges faced by caregivers in guiding new students through their social adjustment, and (3) understand the strategies used by caregivers in guiding new students through their social adjustment. The research method employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection techniques include interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis uses the Miles and Huberman theory, which involves data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that caregivers play a crucial role in the social adjustment of new students at the Al-Mubarok Islamic Boarding School. This role is implemented through five aspects: spiritual (habituation of worship), intellectual (learning), physical (health activities), social (group interaction), and emotional (psychological support). The challenges faced by caregivers in implementing these aspects of social adjustment for new students lie in the diverse backgrounds of the students. The strategies employed during the social adjustment of new students include building mutual commitment and organizing daily collective activities while the students reside in the Islamic boarding school.</p>Siti MutmainnahTri Windi Oktara
