Dukungan sosial dosen merupakan bantuan yang diberikan kepada mahasiswa dalam bentuk dukungan emosional, instrumental, informasi, dan jaringan sosial yang dapat membantu mahasiswa menghadapi tuntutan akademik. Academic buoyancy merupakan kemampuan mahasiswa untuk memonitor, mengelola, dan mempertahankan performa akademik ketika menghadapi tantangan sehari-hari, yang meliputi aspek confident, coordination, commitment, composure, dan control. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran dukungan sosial dosen, gambaran academic buoyancy mahasiswa FKIP USK, serta hubungan dukungan sosial dosen dengan academic buoyancy mahasiswa FKIP USK. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian korelasional. Jumlah populasi dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 6.306 mahasiswa FKIP. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan simple random sampling dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 376 mahasiswa aktif angkatan 2022 hingga 2025. Instrumen penelitian yang digunakan adalah skala dukungan sosial dosen dan skala academic buoyancy yang telah diuji validitas dan reliabilitasnya. Analisis data dilakukan dengan analisis deskriptif dan uji korelasi Pearson Product Moment menggunakan bantuan software SPSS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dukungan sosial dosen berada pada kategori tinggi (61,17%) dan academic buoyancy mahasiswa juga berada pada kategori tinggi (56,65%). Hasil uji korelasi Pearson menunjukkan nilai koefisien korelasi (r) sebesar 0,661 dengan nilai signifikansi 0,000 (p < 0,05), yang berarti terdapat hubungan positif dengan kekuatan kuat antara dukungan sosial dosen dan academic buoyancy. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa semakin tinggi dukungan sosial dosen yang dirasakan mahasiswa, semakin tinggi pula kemampuan academic buoyancy yang dimiliki mahasiswa dalam menghadapi tantangan akademik sehari-hari.

Lecturer social support refers to the assistance provided to students in the form of emotional, instrumental, informational, and social network support that helps them cope with academic demands. Academic buoyancy is defined as students’ ability to monitor, manage, and maintain their academic performance when facing everyday academic challenges, which includes the aspects of confident, coordination, commitment, composure, and control. This study aimed to identify the level of lecturer social support, the level of academic buoyancy among FKIP USK students, and the relationship between lecturer social support and students’ academic buoyancy. This study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational research design. The population consisted of 6,306 FKIP students, and 376 active students from the 2022–2025 cohorts were selected using simple random sampling. The instruments used were the Lecturer Social Support Scale and the Academic Buoyancy Scale, both of which had been tested for validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and Pearson Product Moment correlation with the assistance of SPSS software. The results showed that lecturer social support was categorized as high (61.17%), and students’ academic buoyancy was also categorized as high (56.65%). The Pearson correlation test indicated a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.661 with a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a strong positive relationship between lecturer social support and academic buoyancy. These findings suggest that the higher the lecturer social support perceived by students, the higher their academic buoyancy in facing daily academic challenges.
