Personality functioning reflects individual differences in self and interpersonal capacities. This study examined whether narrative identity awareness mediates the associations of rumination and reflection with personality functioning. In a community sample of 424 adults, participants completed self-report measures of personality functioning, rumination, reflection, and narrative identity awareness. Cross-sectional mediation analyses (complete cases, N = 405) showed that rumination was associated with greater impairment, whereas reflection showed a more selective pattern. Narrative identity awareness was associated with lower impairment, and significant indirect associations were observed for both rumination and reflection in the simultaneous model; sensitivity analyses indicated that the indirect association was more robust for reflection than for rumination. Indirect associations were most evident for identity and self-direction, smaller for intimacy, and not statistically detectable for empathy. Component-level analyses indicated that coherence-related facets, particularly causal coherence, showed the most consistent indirect associations.
With generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools now widely available in higher education, understanding what predicts students’ intentions to use them dishonestly has become an increasingly important concern for universities worldwide. In this pre-registered study, we applied the extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to examine the predictors of AI academic misconduct intentions (AIMI) in 2,883 English-proficient university students from 15 countries recruited via Prolific. Because these intentions were strongly concentrated at zero, we used a Bayesian hurdle model that separates two processes: whether a student reports any intention to use AI dishonestly, and how strong that intention is among those who report one. More favorable attitudes, higher AI proficiency, and weaker moral obligation predicted both a greater probability of reporting any intention and greater intention intensity, with attitudes the strongest and most consistent predictor across both components. Weaker subjective norms predicted whether students reported any intention but not its intensity. A history of traditional academic misconduct and a history of AI-enabled misconduct each predicted both components. The final model accounted for 18.7% of the variance in whether students reported any intention and 47.8% of the variance in the intensity of that intention. These findings provide an initial cross-national test of the extended TPB for AI misconduct intentions, but future research in native-language, institution-based samples is still needed to verify the cross-cultural specificity of these mechanisms.
This article examines how digital visual activism constructs alternative narratives of the 1965–1966 mass violence in Indonesia through the poster work of Alit Ambara. Focusing on selected series from the Posteraksi platform, the study analyzes how visual strategies such as irony, symbolic inversion, and affective disruption challenge state-sponsored historiography and cultures of silence. Drawing on theories of counter-memory, counter-archives, and image-events, the article argues that Ambara's posters operate as memory-making interventions that reopen the past to ethical debate. Central to this practice is a form of icono-ethics, which repurposes state icons to restore the dignity of victims and demand accountability. Situated within Indonesia's stalled transitional justice processes, these posters emerge as crucial cultural responses to legal impunity and archival denial. Methodologically, the study combines semiotic analysis with digital ethnography to trace the circulation of images across affective publics: online communities unified by shared emotional engagement and resistance to amnesia. The article demonstrates that where formal justice mechanisms have failed, digital visual practices function as provisional yet powerful counter-archives, sustaining remembrance through circulation, affect, and collective ethical commitment.

One of the fundamental principles of a democratic legal system is the term limits for both executive and legislative bodies. This applies not only to central bodies but also to those at the lower, local government level. It is worth emphasizing that the functioning of these bodies is completely different, particularly the method of their appointment, as well as their involvement and public awareness. Consequently, it is necessary to analyze whether the current regulations implying term limits for executive local government bodies should be modified, and if so, whether such a change would be consistent with the current constitution, including the nature and importance of local government units in the structure of the state.
