Himpsi Jaya 2005-2007, Apa yang Telah Kau Kerjakan? Sebuah Evaluasi Tentang Kinerja Organisasi Profesi Psikologi Wilayah Jakarta
Abstrak: Himpunan Psikologi
Indonesia (Himpsi) is the only organization for psychologists in Indonesia.
After almost 50 years since it was founded in 1959, Himpsi shows limited
improvement to its members. Himpsi Jaya is the Jakarta chapter of the
organization.The lack of significant activities raises issues whether the
organization benefits to its member. Most complains include slow membership
process and difficulties in paying annual fee. This study attempts to evaluate
the organization based on the perspectives of members, ex. members, and those
who want to be members. It is a descriptive quantitative study and the sample
of the population was taken non-randomly. It was a joint project between Atma Jaya
Catholic University and Himpsi Jaya. The sampling technique was convenience
sampling. Questionnaire was distributed directly when Himpsi Jaya held
activities and indirectly through beranda@himpsijaya.org mailing list. Of the
expected 150 sample size (about 10% of total members who pay annual fee
regularly), 83 respondents returned the questionnaires. Most respondents aged
between 21 and 30 years old, not married, had been psychologists, and graduated
at the master level. Some were fresh graduates and in the process of looking for
jobs. This indicates that young members pay attention seriously to the improvement
of the organization, especially because they expect Himpsi helps their careers
improved. Members thought that the performance of the organization is very
limited. The need to develop professional competency and certification should
make Himpsi Jaya improve its performance.
