EFEKTIVITAS PENDEKATAN GESTALT DALAM PERILAKU KONSUMTIF PADA SISWA (STUDI PENELITIAN KORELASI PADA SISWA KELAS X SMAN 2 KOTA SERANG)

Abstract

Abstrak The background of this research is that there is a tendency for high

consumptive behavior shown by some students when interacting in social

environments and digital media. Teachers and school counselors face challenges

in helping students manage excessive consumption impulses. Therefore, the

researcher and Guidance and Counseling teachers took the initiative to develop

counseling services using the Gestalt approach, so that students can improve self-

awareness and control consumptive behavior. This research was conducted at

SMAN 2 Kota Serang over a one-month period during the first semester of the

2023/2024 academic year. The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness

of the Gestalt approach in terms of students' consumptive behavior before and after

the application of the Gestalt approach in guidance services at SMAN 2 Kota

Serang. The research method used is quantitative research with a correlational

design. The subjects of this study consisted of 240 tenth-grade students selected

using random sampling techniques. The research instrument used a Likert scale

questionnaire, and data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics.

The results of data analysis showed a correlation coefficient of 0.851 with a

significance level of 0.000. Thus, the results of this study indicate that the application

of the Gestalt approach is effective, as there is a very significant relationship

between the effectiveness of the Gestalt approach and the reduction of consumptive

behavior among tenth-grade students at SMAN 2 Kota Serang.
