Mekanisme Pertahanan Diri Tokoh Tari dalam Film Bolehkah Sekali Saja Kumenangis
Abstract
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis mekanisme pertahanan diri Tari, tokoh utama dalam film Bolehkah Sekali Saja Kumenangis, serta mengkaji hubungannya dengan konflik psikologis yang dialami tokoh tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan psikologi sastra. Sumber data utama adalah film Bolehkah Sekali Saja Kumenangis, sedangkan data penelitian mencakup dialog, tindakan, ekspresi, gestur, dan adegan yang mencerminkan respons psikologis Tari terhadap konflik yang dihadapinya. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi berulang dan pencatatan, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan analisis isi kualitatif berdasarkan perspektif psikoanalisis Sigmund Freud dan konsep mekanisme pertahanan diri. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Tari menggunakan empat jenis mekanisme pertahanan diri: represi, penyangkalan (denial), sublimasi, dan pembentukan reaksi (reaction formation). Represi tercermin dalam kecenderungan Tari untuk menekan emosi menyakitkan akibat konflik keluarga, sementara penyangkalan terlihat melalui upayanya menghindari pengakuan atas masalah yang dihadapinya. Sublimasi muncul ketika Tari mengalihkan tekanan emosionalnya ke dalam aktivitas positif, khususnya melalui keterlibatannya dalam komunitas Life Mates. Sementara itu, pembentukan reaksi tercermin dalam perkembangan sikap Tari yang semakin asertif dalam merespons tuntutan eksternal. Mekanisme-mekanisme ini berkaitan erat dengan konflik psikologis Tari terutama yang bersumber dari masalah keluarga serta kekerasan verbal dan fisik dan menunjukkan proses bertahapnya dalam mengenali serta mengatasi pengalaman emosionalnya.
