Abstrak

Leadership, in particular self-leadership, plays an important role for individuals, including undergraduate students. Consequently, research on self-leadership needs to be conducted to understand how they lead themselves while studying. This research study describes to what extent there is self-leadership among undergraduate students. Data was collected from undergraduate students attending a public university. Random sampling was used to determine the number of participants who were involved in this research. A questionnaire, the Abbreviated Self-Leadership Questionnaire (ASLQ), was used as the instrument for collecting data. In addition, a descriptive analysis has been employed to understand the level of self-leadership among undergraduate students. The result of this study revealed that 23% of undergraduate students had high self-leadership, 58.6% of undergraduate students had average self-leadership, and 18% of undergraduate students had low self-leadership. This study indicated that leadership development is crucial for undergraduate students studying at religious educational institutions.
