Abstract

This study aims to examine the application of the reframing technique in reducing self-harm behavior among students at SMPN 18 Makassar. The study employed a quantitative approach using a Single Subject Research (SSR) experimental design with an A–B–A format. The research subject was one student identified as exhibiting self-harm behavior. Data were collected through questionnaires, observations, and interviews, and analyzed using descriptive analysis and visual analysis to examine behavioral changes across each research phase. The results indicate that before the intervention, the level of self-harm behavior was high and relatively stable. These findings demonstrate that the reframing technique is effective in helping students reconstruct negative perspectives, improve emotional regulation, and reduce urges to engage in self-harm behaviors. The study concludes that the application of the reframing technique has a positive effect on reducing self-harm behavior among junior high school students. The implications of this study highlight the importance of optimizing guidance and counseling services in schools, particularly individual counseling grounded in cognitive techniques, as both preventive and curative measures to support students’ mental health and psychological well-being.
