adolescence is a critical period marked by significant physical, emotional, and social changes. In Indonesia, where cultural and religious norms play a central role in shaping societal attitudes, adolescents face unique challenges as they navigate through this developmental stage. Islamic boarding schools, or pesantren, provide a distinctive setting where adolescents receive secular and religious education. Understanding the experiences and needs of adolescents in these settings is essential for developing targeted interventions to support healthy development.
this study employed a qualitative approach, utilizing focus group discussions to explore students' perspectives in Islamic boarding schools. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 32 participants, divided into male and female groups. Data were collected through recorded interviews, transcribed, and analyzed thematically.
three main themes emerged from the data: the importance of reproductive health knowledge, navigating romantic feelings and privacy, and the impact of bullying. Cultural and religious values were identified as significant influencers of adolescent behavior, highlighting the importance of integrating these values into educational interventions. They also discussed challenges related to romantic feelings, privacy boundaries, and bullying experiences within the school environment.
this study provides valuable insights into the experiences and needs of adolescents in Islamic boarding schools in Indonesia. The findings emphasize the importance of comprehensive sex and reproductive education, cultural sensitivity, and targeted interventions to support adolescent well-being in these settings. Future research should explore the perspectives of parents and educators to develop more holistic interventions.
青春期是一个关键时期，其特征是身体、情感和社会发生重大变化。在印度尼西亚，文化和宗教规范在塑造社会态度方面发挥着核心作用，青少年在经历这一发展阶段时面临着独特的挑战。伊斯兰寄宿学校，即宗教学校，为青少年提供了一个接受世俗和宗教教育的独特环境。了解这些环境中青少年的经历和需求对于制定有针对性的干预措施以支持他们的健康发展至关重要。
本研究采用定性研究方法，利用焦点小组讨论来探究伊斯兰寄宿学校学生的观点。采用目的抽样法招募了32名参与者，分为男性和女性组。通过录音访谈收集数据，进行转录并进行主题分析。
数据中出现了三个主要主题：生殖健康知识的重要性、应对浪漫情感和隐私问题以及欺凌行为的影响。文化和宗教价值观被确定为青少年行为的重要影响因素，凸显了将这些价值观纳入教育干预措施的重要性。他们还讨论了学校环境中与浪漫情感、隐私界限和欺凌经历相关的挑战。
本研究为印度尼西亚伊斯兰寄宿学校青少年的经历和需求提供了有价值的见解。研究结果强调了全面的性与生殖教育、文化敏感性以及有针对性的干预措施对于支持这些环境中青少年福祉的重要性。未来的研究应探索家长和教育工作者的观点，以制定更全面的干预措施。
