The study's objective was to adapt and evaluate the tool to measure parenting self-efficacy in a way that was acceptable for Indonesia's unique cyberparenting context, taking into account local customs and the growing use of digital platforms in families. A total of 202 parents were gathered as study participants, and the TOPSE was meticulously adjusted to suit the Indonesian context. The results showed a four-factor scale structure consistent with Indonesian culture. The equipment's remarkable durability emphasizes the correctness of the procedure. This study is noteworthy for its creative approach to creating a personalized assessment tool and for emphasizing the urgent need for contextualized understanding of parental self-efficacy in the digital era. This is a significant improvement in the use and integration of psychological research to improve child development and parental involvement in online learning environments, according to professionals and parents alike. It also sets a new standard for research-based, culturally aware online parenting tools.

Generational categories classify individuals born in specific time frames, known for unique traits and tech adaptability. Some research indicates that the digital-native generation is more prone to distractions than other groups. However, the underlying mechanism is unclear and influenced by many factors, such as stress. In the current study (n=299), the authors leveraged the mobile monitoring of cognitive change (M2C2) symbol search task to measure processing speed. This study examines the relationships between generational categories (Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z), perceived stress, subjective age (considered to predict important aspects of well-being beyond chronological age), and distraction cost. These results emphasize the significant influence of age-related variables and stress in shaping susceptibility to distractions. Future research can expand participant numbers, conduct longitudinal studies to track cognitive changes in digital-era generational cohorts, and explore neurocognitive mechanisms and technological fluency's role in distraction susceptibility.

This article aims to investigate the professional and ethical negotiation on managing cyber conflict prevention towards misuse and exploitation of massive social media adoption from the higher learners' perspective. The qualitative approach from forum discussion was made among sixty higher education learners with the selection criteria. The data gathered were analyzed using thematic basis and compared with the findings from literature analysis from relevant peer reviewed journals. All were investigated, analyzed, extracted, and proposed into the professional and ethical negotiation for cyber conflict prevention. The finding revealed the principal value of digital professional skills enhancement in online practice consisting of digital competence skills, digital practice adaptability and stability, and digital technical application skills. Moreover, the digital ethical responsibility in online practice consists of communication and information accuracy enhancement, digital manner adaptability and transparency, accountability and security. We propose a dynamic discussion that encompasses enhancing ethical commitment on information accuracy for cyber conflict management; considering ethical manner on digital manner adaptability for cyber conflict arrangement; strengthening professional skills on transparency and security information quality for cyber conflict arrangement; and empowering professional negotiation accountability for cyber conflict management.

The purpose of this study is to apply the Situational Crime Prevention (SCP) technique to cybercrime mitigation using the South Africa cybercrime incidences as a case study. The SCP was first explained from the theoretical perspective and its five major strategies namely “increase effort”, “increase risks”, “reduce reward”, “reduce provocation” and remove excuses” were explained and linked to remote and online crimes. Prevalent cybercrimes perpetrated in South Africa were also highlighted with hacking used specifically as an example in this study. The SCP technique was tailored towards the mitigation of hacking and its prevalent forms. The SCP fraud prevention “hardening framework” was developed and validated using the hacking incidences in South Africa as a case study. Based on this policy recommendations were made to promote cyber resilience. The outcomes of this study are conceptual frameworks with guidelines for applying the SCP strategies to remote and online crime. The conceptual frameworks are suitable for cybercrime prevention and mitigation and for achieving cyber-resilience
