This research explored how neurotypical adults’ decision-making processes, when influenced by emotions of joy and fear, reveal underlying biases that have social justice implications for neurodivergent individuals. Neurodivergent adults are often stereotyped as irrational and unpredictable which means that ‘neurotypical’ adults are positioned as rational in response. This research examined rationality in relation to the risk-reward decision making of neurotypical adults and critically considered the social justice implications of these findings for neurodivergent people. Specifically, our mixed method study based in experimental philosophical methodology has investigated: a) whether attempts at evoking the emotions of joy and fear respectively across two decision scenarios, each with identical risks of death and monetary rewards, can influence the decision-making scores of neurotypical adults; b) the ways in which study participants explained their decisions; and c) the social justice implications of study findings for neurodivergent people. Results showed that the evocation of fear significantly impacted the rational decision-making abilities of neurotypical individuals, revealing a susceptibility to emotional manipulation. Themes and sub-themes explaining study participants’ decision making included: beliefs (low risk, high reward, simplicity, equal risks); emotions (enjoyment, fear); prior experiences; and constraints (information deficit, reward deficit; psychological cost; ethical). We conclude by discussing the social justice implications of the results in relation to the assumed rationality of neurotypical people, or irrationality of neurodivergent people.

This study explores the phenomenon of teenagers' digital identity duality through the use of main and second accounts on Instagram social media. Using a mixed-methods approach, this study reveals the motivations, impression management strategies, and psychological and social impacts of this practice. The results showed significant differences in self-expression, impression management, self-disclosure, and self-promotion between main and second accounts. Qualitative findings reveal adolescents' motivations for creating a Second account as an expressive space separate from the idealized self-image on the main account, as well as their efforts in negotiating digital identity to fit social norms and the need for self-authenticity. This study reveals the complexity of dynamics in adolescents' identity construction in the digital world, where they attempt to balance the projection of a public self-image with authentic self-expression through the use of multiple accounts. This research contributes to the understanding of how adolescents navigate social pressures and the need to be fully recognized in the context of social media.

This study examines the political economy of the development of plantation capitalism in the palm oil sector in Mamuju Tengah Regency. Using a Marxist political economy approach operationalized through field research in two locations in Mamuju Tengah Regency (Rambulana and Bululana), the research reveals that the historical foundation of palm oil capitalism in this area began with a process of primitive accumulation, which dramatically dispossessed local residents of their land. The palm oil boom subsequently accelerated land conversion in the smallholder agricultural sector and drove farmers to expand their plantation scale through exclusionary processes occurring among relatives and neighbors, as well as between local residents and migrants (intimate exclusion). This exclusion underpins the emergence of inequalities in land ownership and control within the non-corporate palm oil plantation sector in Mamuju Tengah. Consequently, farmers have become differentiated into several classes: farmers capable of accumulating wealth on a large scale (capitalist farmers), farmers who can only achieve simple reproduction (medium farmers), farmers trapped in subsistence-level reproduction (poor farmers), and farmers reliant solely on wage relationships with capitalist farmers (wage labour). The study also shows that kegureman and ketunakismaan are distinct markers of rural poverty. Therefore, issues of sustainability in the non-corporate palm oil sector must be understood in terms of land ownership inequality.
Abstrak Tulisan ini mengkaji tentang ekonomi politik perkembangan kapitalisme perkebunan kelapa sawit di Kabupaten Mamuju Tengah. Melalui pendekatan marxist political economy yang dioperasionalisasi dalam penelitian lapangan (field research) di dua tempat di Kabupaten Mamuju Tengah (Dusun Rambulana dan Kampung Bululana), penelitian ini menunjukkan, bahwa basis sejarah perkembangan kapitalisme kelapa sawit di daerah ini diawali dari proses akumulasi primitif yang secara dramatis menyingkirkan warga lokal dari tanahnya. Boom kelapa sawit kemudian meningkatkan konversi lahan di sektor pertanian rakyat dan memicu petani untuk memperluas skala produksi kebunnya melalui proses penyingkiran yang terjadi antara kerabat dan tetangganya, antara warga lokal dan warga pendatang (intimate exclusion). Penyingkiran tersebut mendasari terjadinya ketimpangan dalam struktur pemilikan dan penguasaan lahan pada perkebunan sawit non-perusahaan di Mamuju Tengah. Akibatnya, petani mengalami diferensiasi ke dalam beberapa kelas; petani yang mampu mengakumulasi kekayaan dalam skala yang luas (petani kapitalis), petani yang hanya mampu melakukan reproduksi sederhana (petani menengah), petani yang terjebak dalam himpitan rerproduksi sederhana (petani kecil/petani gurem), dan petani yang hanya bergantung pada relasi upah dengan petani kapitalis (buruhtani/tunakisma). Penelitian ini juga menunjukkan, bahwa kegureman dan ketunakismaan adalah penanda khusus gambaran suram kemiskinan di pedesaan. oleh karena itu, masalah keberlanjutan dalam sektor kelapa sawit non-perusahaan harus diletakkan pada masalah ketimpangan penguasaan lahan.
