I study how people build and keep a sense of belonging, in families, classrooms, and the places we gather online. My work asks what makes connection hold, and what quietly breaks it.
Perjalanan ini tidak hanya tentang meraih sebuah gelar, tetapi tentang bertumbuh melalui setiap tantangan, belajar dari setiap proses, dan dikuatkan oleh doa serta dukungan kalian semua. Terima kasih telah meluangkan waktu untuk hadir dan menjadi bagian dari momen yang sangat berharga dalam Sidang Promosi Doktor. Semoga setiap kebaikan yang Anda berikan dibalas dengan kebahagiaan, kesehatan, dan keberkahan yang melimpah. Dengan hormat dan penuh rasa syukur,
Promovenda,
Apriliani Arimbi
Selected publications & research papers
Research is not just about dissecting human behavior, but about understanding the quiet ways people seek belonging, build resilience, and construct meaning together.
Four threads, one question
Belonging
What makes a place feel like yours — and what quietly withdraws that feeling.
Attachment
How early bonds echo forward into how we learn, work, and hold onto people.
Identity
The selves we carry across rooms, and the cost of leaving parts at the door.
Well-being
Connection as infrastructure for a life that feels steady, not just full.
Let's build something that holds.
Open to collaboration, research projects, academic inquiry, and thoughtful conversation. Reach out any time.
