Abstract

Tingkat empati yang rendah di kalangan anak binaan di Lembaga Pembinaan Khusus Anak (LPKA) Kelas I Martapura menjadi hambatan utama dalam proses rehabilitasi dan reintegrasi sosial mereka. Kondisi ini menyebabkan sulitnya membangun hubungan interpersonal yang sehat dan meningkatkan risiko perilaku antisosial. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan intervensi yang efektif untuk meningkatkan empati anak binaan agar mereka lebih siap menghadapi kehidupan sosial setelah masa pembinaan. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan empati anak binaan melalui layanan konseling berbasis role-playing. Metode pelaksanaan mencakup tiga tahapan utama: pre-test untuk mengukur tingkat empati awal, intervensi melalui ‘role-playing,’ dan ‘post-test’ untuk mengevaluasi perubahan tingkat empati setelah intervensi. Sebanyak 32 peserta berusia 12–18 tahun berpartisipasi dalam kegiatan ini. Hasil analisis menunjukkan adanya peningkatan signifikan pada tingkat empati, dengan skor rata-rata meningkat dari 116,13 menjadi 122,72 (p = 0,001). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa ‘role-playing’ efektif dalam membantu anak binaan memahami perspektif orang lain serta meningkatkan keterampilan sosial-emosional mereka. Selain itu, pendekatan ini memberikan rekomendasi bagi pengembangan program rehabilitasi di LPKA dengan metode berbasis pengalaman yang interaktif dan partisipatif.
