Review

This paper presents a timely and relevant initiative addressing the impostor phenomenon (IP) among youth, identified as a significant mental health concern. Specifically, it details the implementation of a workshop tailored for young individuals affiliated with the "Menjadi Manusia" collective who were reportedly experiencing IP. The core objective of this intervention was to provide psychoeducation and psychological strategies to help participants understand and manage IP, thus contributing to their overall mental well-being. The study's focus on a practical, community-based intervention for a specific vulnerable group makes it a commendable effort in applied mental health. A key strength of this work lies in its direct and proactive approach to a pressing mental health issue. The design of a workshop incorporating both psychoeducation and psychological intervention demonstrates a thoughtful strategy for equipping youth with essential coping mechanisms. Targeting a specific collective suggests a well-contextualized approach, likely increasing the relevance and resonance of the intervention for its participants. The abstract also reports positive feedback from participants, indicating that the workshop helped them in understanding and managing IP, which is an encouraging preliminary indicator of the intervention's immediate perceived benefit. Despite its valuable intent, the abstract, as presented, critically lacks the methodological detail necessary for a robust journal article. There is no information provided regarding the sample size, participant recruitment process, the specific content or duration of the "serial activities," or, most importantly, the outcome measures used to assess the workshop's effectiveness beyond anecdotal "participant's feedback." Without objective data, such as pre- and post-intervention scores on validated IP scales or other mental health indicators, it is challenging to ascertain the true impact and generalizability of the intervention. For future publications, incorporating rigorous methodology, systematic outcome evaluation, and a discussion of limitations and broader applicability would significantly enhance the scientific merit of this important work.
