Abstract

Abstrak: Kepemimpinan mahasiswa dalam organisasi kemahasiswaan masih menjadi tantangan dalam pengembangan sumber daya manusia di perguruan tinggi, sehingga diperlukan kajian mengenai faktor-faktor yang memengaruhinya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis (1) pengaruh self efficacy terhadap kepemimpinan Pengurus Harian Tetap Himpunan Mahasiswa se-FKIP UNS Periode 2025, (2) pengaruh kecerdasan interpersonal terhadap kepemimpinan, dan (3) pengaruh kedua variabel tersebut secara simultan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan populasi sebanyak 366 Pengurus Harian Tetap Himpunan Mahasiswa se-FKIP UNS. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 191 responden yang ditentukan melalui teknik probability sampling dengan stratified random sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan kuesioner dan dianalisis menggunakan regresi linear berganda dengan bantuan IBM SPSS Statistics versi 27. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa self efficacy berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepemimpinan (Sig. = 0,000; t = 5,982), kecerdasan interpersonal juga berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepemimpinan (Sig. = 0,000; t = 6,570), serta kedua variabel secara simultan berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepemimpinan (Sig. = 0,000; F = 77,020). Self efficacy dan kecerdasan interpersonal memberikan sumbangan efektif sebesar 45% terhadap kepemimpinan, sedangkan 55% sisanya dipengaruhi oleh faktor-faktor lain di luar penelitian. Temuan ini diharapkan menjadi dasar pengembangan program peningkatan kepemimpinan mahasiswa melalui penguatan self efficacy dan kecerdasan interpersonal.

Abstract: Student leadership in student organizations remains a challenge in human resource development in higher education, underscoring the need to examine the factors that influence it. This study aimed to analyze (1) the effect of self-efficacy on the leadership of Permanent Daily Executive Board (PHT) members of Student Associations at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Sebelas Maret (FKIP UNS) for the 2025 period; (2) the effect of interpersonal intelligence on leadership; and (3) the simultaneous effect of both variables on leadership. This study employed a quantitative approach with a population of 366 PHT members. A total of 191 respondents were selected through probability sampling using a stratified random sampling technique. Data were collected via closed questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics version 27. The results indicated that self-efficacy exerted a positive and significant effect on leadership (Sig. = 0.000; t = 5.982), interpersonal intelligence also exerted a positive and significant effect on leadership (Sig. = 0.000; t = 6.570), and both variables simultaneously exerted a positive and significant effect on leadership (Sig. = 0.000; F = 77.020). Self-efficacy and interpersonal intelligence jointly accounted for 45% of the variance in leadership, while the remaining 55% was attributable to other factors beyond the scope of this study. These findings are expected to serve as a basis for designing student leadership development programs through the strengthening of self-efficacy and interpersonal intelligence.
