PENGARUH SOLUTION FOKUSED BRIEF COUNSELING (SFBC) UNTUK MENINGKATKAN SELF-ESTEEM SISWA KELUARGA BROKEN HOME DI MA ABDUL AZIZ BALUNG JEMBER

Abstract

Adolescents with low self-esteem tend to have negative self-perceptions, feel
unworthy, and withdraw from their social environment. This condition is commonly
found among students from broken home families, as they often believe that their
parents’ separation is their fault. Such beliefs can lead to prolonged sadness and
emotional trauma. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of Solution
Focused Brief Counseling (SFBC) as an effort to improve the self-esteem of
students from broken home families at MA Abdul Aziz Balung, Jember. Self-esteem
plays a crucial role in personal development and academic achievement, making
effective intervention strategies essential in educational settings. The research
employed a quasi-experimental method with a one-group pre-test and post-test
design. The sample was selected using purposive sampling techniques. The

experimental group received SFBC treatment. Data were collected using a self-
esteem scale administered before and after the intervention. The results of the data

analysis using a paired sample t-test indicated a significant increase in students’
self-esteem after the intervention. This study provides an in-depth understanding of
the extent to which SFBC can significantly contribute to enhancing the self-esteem
of students from broken home backgrounds.
