Abstract


Emerging adulthood is when individuals begin to explore and experience many changes in their lives. Social support can improve psychological well-being during this challenging developmental stage. However, research on the influence of emotional invalidation on psychological well-being is still minimal. This study aims to determine the role of emotional invalidation and social support on psychological well-being in early adulthood. This study involved 266 samples consisting of male and female Indonesian citizens aged 18-29 years and applied quantitative methods with purposive sampling techniques. The instruments used for data collection were the Psychological Well-Being Scale, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and The Perceived Invalidation of Emotion Scale, which were then analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results showed that the role of emotional invalidation and social support on psychological well-being had a high influence with a significant value (p<0.05) with an influence of 16.7%. Social support has a positive influence and is important for individuals in the early adult stage with a value of t = 3.846, whereas emotional invalidation has a negative impact (t = -5.382).

Masa dewasa muda adalah masa ketika individu mulai mengeksplorasi dan mengalami banyak perubahan dalam hidupnya. Dukungan sosial dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan psikologis selama tahap perkembangan yang penuh tantangan ini. Namun, penelitian mengenai pengaruh emotional invalidation terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis masih minim. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peran emotional invalidation dan dukungan sosial terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis pada masa dewasa awal. Penelitian ini melibatkan 266 sampel yang terdiri dari pria dan wanita warga negara Indonesia yang berusia 18-29 tahun dan menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan teknik purposive sampling. Instrumen yang digunakan untuk pengumpulan data adalah Psychological Well-Being Scale, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, dan The Perceived Invalidation of Emotion Scale, yang kemudian dianalisis dengan menggunakan regresi linier berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa peran invalidasi emosi dan dukungan sosial terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis memiliki pengaruh yang tinggi dengan nilai signifikan (p<0,05) dengan pengaruh sebesar 16,7%. Dukungan sosial memiliki pengaruh yang positif dan penting bagi individu pada tahap dewasa awal dengan nilai t=3,846, sedangkan emotional invalidation memiliki pengaruh yang negatif (t=-5,382).
