Abstract

Self-efficacy is an important component that must be improved to prevent bullying. The purpose of the study was to determine the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to increase the self-efficacy of students who are victims of bullying at SMKN 6 Malang. The research design used an experiment with a one group pretest and posttest design. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with the subject of 5 students who were bullied and had low self-efficacy. The instrument uses a self-efficacy scale with a total of 28 items with a validity value of 0.312 and a reliability of 0.933. The data analysis technique used a nonparametric test, namely the Wilcoxon test with the Asymp sig value. 0.043 which is less than 0.05 so Ho is rejected and proves that ACT is effective in increasing the self-efficiency of bullied students. The conclusion in this study is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is effective in increasing students’ self-efficacy for victims of bullying.
