The rapid development of digital technology requires parents, especially working mothers, to possess awareness and the ability to manage technology use efficiently, while balancing professional and parenting roles. This study aims to examine the influence of work-life balance and digital parental self-efficacy on digital parental awareness, specifically in the subdimension of efficient technology use. A quantitative research approach with an online survey was conducted with 182 working mothers who have children aged 5–15 years and are actively using gadgets or the internet. The results show that work-life balance and digital parental self-efficacy have a positive and significant effect on digital parental awareness in the efficient use of technology (R² = 0.239, F = 28.151, p < 0.01). These findings reveal that 23.9% of the variance in efficient digital awareness can be explained by these two variables. A balance between work and personal life supports mothers' involvement in overseeing their children's technology use, while digital self-efficacy enhances their ability to manage technology in a safe and productive manner. This study underscores the importance of programs that enhance work-life balance and digital self-efficacy training for working mothers in the digital age.
ABSTRAK
Perkembangan teknologi digital memerlukan orang tua, terutama ibu bekerja, untuk memiliki kesadaran dan kemampuan dalam mengelola penggunaan teknologi secara efisien, sambil menyeimbangkan peran profesional dan pengasuhan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji pengaruh keseimbangan kehidupan kerja (work-life balance) dan efikasi diri orang tua digital (digital parental self-efficacy) terhadap kesadaran orang tua digital, khususnya pada subdimensi penggunaan teknologi yang efisien (efficient use). Metode penelitian kuantitatif dengan survei daring melibatkan 182 ibu bekerja yang memiliki anak usia 5–15 tahun dan aktif menggunakan gawai atau internet. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keseimbangan kehidupan kerja dan efikasi diri digital memiliki pengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kesadaran digital orang tua dalam penggunaan teknologi yang efisien (R² = 0.239, F = 28.151, p < 0.01). Temuan ini mengungkapkan bahwa 23,9% variasi dalam kesadaran digital yang efisien dapat dijelaskan oleh kedua variabel tersebut. Keseimbangan antara pekerjaan dan kehidupan pribadi mendukung keterlibatan ibu dalam mengawasi penggunaan teknologi oleh anak, sementara efikasi diri digital meningkatkan kemampuan ibu dalam mengelola teknologi dengan cara yang aman dan produktif. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya program yang dapat meningkatkan keseimbangan kehidupan kerja dan pelatihan efikasi diri digital bagi ibu bekerja di era digital.
