Abstract

This research is important because high school students face academic and social pressures that require self-management skills in learning and developing positive behaviors. In these conditions, friendships become an important factor influencing learning motivation, emotional support, and students' ability to face various challenges in the school environment. This study aims to understand how the meaning of friendship influences self-regulated learning abilities and positive behaviors of eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 2 Ponorogo. This study uses a qualitative phenomenological approach. Informants were selected using a purposive sampling technique, consisting of five eleventh-grade students, one guidance counselor, and one homeroom teacher. Data collection techniques were carried out through semi-structured in-depth interviews, limited observation, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out through the processes of transcription, data reduction, coding, grouping themes, and interpretation of meaning. The results show that students interpret friendships as a source of emotional and academic support that helps them cope with learning pressures and personal problems. Healthy friendships provide a sense of comfort, togetherness, and mutual trust that contribute to the formation of positive behaviors and self-regulated learning abilities. Thus, positive friendship relationships have an important role in developing self-regulated learning and positive behavior of students at SMA Negeri 2 Ponorogo.
