Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji efektivitas penguatan kebersyukuran melalui intervensi menulis surat syukur terhadap peningkatan subjective well being siswa dalam interaksi sosial. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian kuantitatif dan desain penelitian eksperimen. Subjek penelitian ini adalah 20 siswa SD, masing-masing adalah 10 siswa untuk kelompok eksperimen dan 10 siswa untuk kelompok kontrol. Kelompok eksperimen diberikan perlakuan menulis surat syukur. Pengumpulan data menggunakan skala Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) dan Positive Affect and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS) untuk mengukur subjective well-being, sementara Gratitude, Resentment Appréciation Test-Short Form (GRAT-Short Form) digunakan untuk mengukur kebersyukuran siswa. Teknik analisis data menggunakan paired sample t-test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan penguatan kebersyukuran melalui intervensi menulis surat syukur memberikan bukti dapat meningkatkan subjective well-being siswa khususnya dalam dua komponen utama subjective well-being (kepuasan hidup dan afek positif). Siswa yang mendapatkan intervensi menulis surat syukur menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan pada tingkat subjective well-being daripada siswa yang tidak menulis surat syukur.
