The phenomenon of fatherless, or the lack of a father's role in a child's life, has gained increasing attention due to its potential impact on an individual's psychosocial development, including social-emotional intelligence. The role of the father in the family contributes to the development of emotional regulation, empathy, and social skills that are essential for a child's development into adulthood. This study aims to examine the relationship between fatherless and the level of social-emotional intelligence among female students of the Faculty of Medicine at Sriwijaya University. This quantitative study employed a correlational design with a cross-sectional approach involving 93 respondents selected through proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected using the Father Presence Questionnaire (FPQ) and the Social Emotional Competence Questionnaire (SECQ), and analyzed using the Spearman Rank correlation test. The results showed that the majority of respondents were in the moderate category of father absence (68.8%) and had a moderate level of social- emotional intelligence (68.8%). The Spearman's Rho test yielded a p-value of 0.006 (p < 0.05) with a correlation coefficient of 0.282. This indicates a significant positive relationship with a low correlation strength. The findings suggest that there is a significant relationship between fatherless and the level of social-emotional intelligence among female students of the Faculty of Medicine at Sriwijaya University. Lower levels of fatherless, indicating better paternal involvement, are associated with higher levels of social-emotional intelligence. These findings have implications for mental health nursing practice, particularly in enhancing family education regarding the importance of paternal involvement in children's psychosocial development.
