Purpose: The psychological well-being of students plays an important role that needs to be examined as it revolves around aspects of internal psychology in a less tangible manner. While a student’s external behavior may provide several insights into well-being, it does not reflect the internal psychological state of a student. This study will be carried out to give a detailed picture of the psychological well-being of primary school students. Methodology: An in-depth interview method was used to collect data. The individuals involved in this study consisted of 10 primary school Muslim Religious students in the residential area of Pahang, Malaysia. Findings: The analysis of these interviews revealed several key themes, including strength in oneself, social involvement, and family support system. The findings of this study can be used as required certificates to help practitioners understand the diverse perspectives on psychological well-being. These themes can be used to enhance family functionality to achieve and maintain psychological well-being and academic achievement in confronting life’s challenges. Implications for Research and Practice: Firstly, it is important to develop customized strategies that teachers, school counselors and professionals can use based on the findings of this study. These strategies should aim to improve the welfare of elementary school students from low-income backgrounds. Additionally, involving families in the process can be incredibly beneficial in creating a nurturing and supportive home environment for students. Lastly it is crucial to provide social skills training that incorporates activities promoting peer relationships, teamwork, and effective communication.

Pada tahun 2022 Malaysia melangkah ke fasa endemik setelah hampir dua tahun masyarakat berdepan dengan pelbagai implikasi akibat pandemik Covid-19. Peralihan fasa menjadi permulaan baharu buat Keluarga Malaysia khususnya golongan pelajar yang berhadapan dengan cabaran besar perlu mengadaptasi norma baharu terutama dalam kalangan berpendapatan sederhana dan rendah. Peralihan drastik ini telah menyumbang kepada perubahan kesejahteraan psikologi dan pencapaian akademik melibatkan sebilangan pelajar di negara ini. Bagi memastikan kejayaan institusi ini, kedua-dua belah pihak iaitu ibu dan bapa seharusnya memainkan peranan yang sama penting terutama melibatkan perkembangan dalaman dan luaran pelajar. Justeru, kajian ini adalah bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti peranan institusi keluarga terhadap perkembangan pencapaian akademik dan kesejahteraan psikologi setelah berakhirnya pandemik Covid-19. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kualitatif melalui kaedah kajian perpustakaan yang melibatkan analisis kandungan melibatkan proses mengumpul dan menyatukan data dari sumber sekunder seperti jurnal, majalah, surat khabar, buletin dan pautan lama web. Kaedah ini memfokuskan kepada pemahaman terhadap peranan dan fungsi institusi keluarga, pencapaian akademik dan kesejahteraan psikologi dalam kalangan pelajar. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bagaimana peranan institusi keluarga berperanan mempengaruhi pembentukan pencapaian akademik pelajar dan kesejahteraan psikologi. Tuntasnya, kajian ini akan menjadi satu platform dan sumber rujukan baru khususnya dalam usaha mengenalpasti peranan institusi keluarga. Ia memfokuskan kepada peranan ibu bapa terhadap perkembangan dan masa depan pelajar melibatkan aspek pendidikan dan psikologi. Tambahan lagi, pelajar merupakan perintis masa depan negara di masa akan datang. Ia sejajar dengan dengan matlamat Deklarasi Keluarga yang menjadi sebahagian agenda nasional supaya semua pihak meletakkan kepentingan keluarga sebagai keutamaan dalam segala perancangan dan tindakan. Kegagalan ibu bapa sebagai komponen penting dalam institusi keluarga akan memberi impak kepada hala tuju pelajar malahan Islam memandang keluarga sebagai sebuah institusi pencorak masyarakat yang bakal dibina di masa akan datang.

The generation gap is critical, especially when employees do not agree about some terms that affect their completion of tasks. This issue is debated in organizations, causing incompatibilities between human resource management and development structures. Hence, these constraints led this study to measure the differences shown by generations X and Y, and how they impact the relationship between psychological empowerment, employee performance, and organizational commitment. This research used questionnaires and in-depth interviews as the main procedures for collecting and obtaining data—196 items of data were received from the Malaysian Islamic Finance Agency. SmartPLS software was used to test the research hypotheses and the differences between the two groups are Gen X and Y (PLS-MGA). The results of the PLS-MGA test confirmed that, in the relationship of psychological empowerment and job performance alone, it was found there was a generational difference between X and Y (p-value < 0.05). However, while running the hypothesis test (using the bootstrapping test), it was found that both hypotheses are acceptable, which shows the relationship between psychological empowerment and job performance based on two different groups, namely Gen Y = t-statistic (10.961) and Gen X = t-statistic (11.993). Thus, H1 is supported. Meanwhile, the relationship between psychological empowerment and organizational commitment is based on two different groups, namely Gen Y = t-statistic (8.675) and Gen X = t-statistic (8.349), which means H2 is also supported. Consequently, it is hoped that the findings of this study will serve as essential guidance for employers in both the public and private sectors. Human resource management teams can use the findings to understand the natural complexity of psychological empowerment constructs in realizing the challenges and difficulties in predicting organizational goals, in terms of job performance and organizational commitment.
