Harga Diri sebagai Mediator Peran Keterlibatan Pengasuhan Kakek-Nenek terhadap Kesejahteraan Subjektif pada Anak Usia Sekolah Dasar
Abstract
In the Millennial era, grandparenting can be an alternative caregiving option for parents who choose to work. This study aims to determine the role of self-esteem as a mediator in the relationship between grandparenting and children's subjective well-being. The method used was a quantitative approach, collecting data using scales of children's subjective well-being, grandparenting, and self-esteem developed by the researcher. Mediation analysis was conducted using the Macro Process developed by Hayes (2013). The participants were 72 sixth-grade elementary school students aged 10–12 years (N=72). The grandparents' ages ranged from 47–92 years. The results showed that self-esteem was found to act as a perfect mediator in the role of grandparenting on children's subjective well-being (total effect = 0,3088, direct effect = -0,0548, LLCI - ULCI = 0,2306 – 0,4881; CI = 95% ).
