Moral Engagement, Psychoeducation, High School StudentsAbstract
This study aims to measure the increase in moral engagement through psychoeducation in high school. The research method used was a quantitative quasi-experimental study with a student population of 35 people. The sampling technique used was saturated sampling. The pre-test and post-test scales designed by the researcher to measure moral engagement used the Moral Disengagement Scale (MDS), while the analysis technique used was a paired sample t-test using JASP software version 0.18. The results of the study showed that there was a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test results after being given moral engagement psychoeducation (t (34) = -5.619; p < 0.001). These results prove that psychoeducation can increase students' moral engagement in the school environment.
