Analisa Keberkesanan Modul Pencegahan Penyalahgunaan Bahan Berasaskan Psikospiritual (MPPBBP) Terhadap Belia Di Kawasan Berisiko Di ILP Jitra [Master’s thesis, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia]. USIM Research Repository.https://oarep.usim.edu.my/handle/123456789/27580Matric:3221462 (FKP)This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Psychospiritual-Based Substance Abuse Prevention Module (MPPBBP) among youth residing in high-risk areas. The effectiveness of the MPPBBP module is assessed in terms of increasing awareness of drugs, spiritual level, self-control locus level, and self-assertiveness skills. This study applies a true experimental research design of randomized control group pretest-posttest design. The study population consists of youth students at ILP Jitra. Participants meeting the study criteria were selected through paired random sampling and assigned to two different groups: the Experimental Group (EG) n=40 and the Control Group (CG) n=40. The EG sample received intervention using the MPPBBP module, while the CG did not undergo any intervention. The study utilized four sets of research questionnaires: Drug Awareness Questionnaire, Psychospiritual Scale Questionnaire, Locus of Control Scale Questionnaire, and Rathus Assertiveness Schedule Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using paired t-test analysis and independent sample t-test. Results for the analysis reveals that the EG demonstrated significant improvements in all dependent variables: drug awareness levels, spirituality levels, self-control locus levels, and self-assertiveness skills. This study has implications for stakeholders to design programs involving psychospiritual elements for drug abuse prevention programs. Additionally, substance abuse counselors can implement the MPPBBP module, which utilizes a psychospiritual approach, in counseling guidance groups. Furthermore, the findings also open up new avenues for exploring psychospiritual approaches for use in implementing prevention programs for drug-abusing communities. Suggestions for further research is to include psychospiritual elements in drug abuse prevention programs. Additionally, future research should focus on conducting follow-up tests to assess the durability of the MPPBBP module and analyze the comparative effects of the MPPBBP module with other related interventions.msDrug abuse--PreventionYouth--Substance use--PreventionPsychospiritual therapySpiritual psychotherapyDrug abuse counselingSelf-controlAssertiveness in youthtext::thesis::master thesis1250
