Klasifikasi Emosi dan Dampak Psikologis Pelecehan Seksual pada Tokoh Utama dalam Novel Asya Story Karya Sabrina Febrianti

Teori David Krech

Abstract

This study aims to identify and describe the forms of emotions by the main character in the novel Asya Story by Sabrina Febrianty based on David Krech’s emotional classification. The research focuses on the psychological dynamics of Asya, who experiences social pressure and trauma resulting from sexual harassment, as well as interpersonal conflicts that influence her emotional development and her relationship with Fano as a supportive figure in her recovery process. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method, with the novel Asya Story as the primary data source and relevant literary and psychological studies as secondary data. Data were collected through close reading, note-taking, and classification based on four categories of emotions proposed by Krech: basic emotions, emotions triggered by sensory stimulation, self-evaluative emotions, and emotions related to others. The findings indicate that Asya and Fano experience complex emotional variations, including happiness, sadness, anger, pain, disgust, pride, shame, guilt, regret, love, and hated. These emotions are conveyed through narration, dialogue, and the characters’ psychological and physical responses influenced by experiences of sexual harassment and social reactions. This study demonstrates that Asya Story not only portrays adolescent life but also represents inner conflict, psychological trauma, and emotional recovery, highlighting the formation of identity through an intense emotional dynamic from a literary psychology perspective.
