Cattle farming plays a strategic role in rural economic development by generating employment, supplementary household income, and contributing to food and nutritional security. However, in Indonesia, most smallholder cattle enterprises remain traditional and small-scale, leading farmers to treat livestock farming primarily as a secondary livelihood. While previous studies have largely focused on technical adoption and production performance, limited attention has been given to farmers’ psychological interest as a foundation for sustaining livestock enterprises. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the level of community interest in cattle farming and examine the influence of farmers’ characteristics (age, education level, herd size, number of family dependents, farming experience, and primary income) on such interest. A quantitative survey was conducted involving 34 cattle farmers in Taji Village, Jabung District, Malang Regency, selected using total sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that community interest in cattle farming is generally high, as reflected in emotional (3.93), cognitive (3.81), and conative (3.74) dimensions measured on a four-point Likert scale. Regression results indicate that age has a significant positive effect (p = 0.022), whereas farming experience has a significant negative effect (p = 0.025) on interest levels. Other variables show no statistically significant influence. These findings highlight that psychological engagement in cattle farming is shaped more by demographic and experiential factors than by formal education or income level. The study contributes to the literature by positioning interest as a psychological determinant of livestock sustainability. Policy implications emphasize the urgency of risk-mitigation extension programs to address farmer burnout, incentivized intergenerational knowledge transfer, and cooperative-based institutional support to ensure smallholder livestock sustainability.

The rapid development of financial technology, particularly online lending, has transformed consumption patterns among working-age individuals by providing easy access to digital credit. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy and online loans on the consumptive lifestyles of gas station workers in the Bululawang area. An explanatory quantitative approach was employed, with all gas station workers serving as the study population. A saturated sampling (census) technique was applied, and data were collected through digital Likert-scale questionnaires. The hypotheses were tested using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. The findings indicate that financial literacy does not significantly reduce consumptive lifestyles, suggesting that financial knowledge alone is insufficient to control spending behavior without strong self-discipline. In contrast, the use of online loan applications has a significant positive effect on consumptive behavior, as rapid access to credit creates a perception of greater purchasing power and encourages impulsive spending to satisfy lifestyle and social prestige. Simultaneously, limited financial literacy combined with easy access to digital credit significantly increases consumptive lifestyles. The study concludes that improving financial management requires not only theoretical financial literacy but also practical financial discipline. Therefore, companies are encouraged to provide continuous financial education and develop safer internal financing alternatives to reduce workers' dependence on digital lending platforms.

This study looks at how da'wah management plays a role in running the Qur'an memorization curriculum at SDIT Islamiyah Proyek Desa Belinteng. The tahfizh program isn't just seen as a way to pass on religious knowledge it's also viewed as a da'wah tool and a means of building religious character in students from an early age. The study aims to explore how management functions including planning, organizing, directing, and evaluating are applied in running the tahfizh program at the school. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, observation, and document review. The key informants were the school principal and the tahfizh teachers. The findings show that the tahfizh program has been managed in a fairly structured way, covering memorization target-setting, clear division of responsibilities, regular memorization sessions, and periodic progress assessments. Beyond improving students' memorization skills, the program also helps instill discipline, good manners, and a love for the Qur'an. That said, the program still faces some challenges, mainly students' lack of focus and limited muroja'ah practice at home.

Proper drug disposal is often perceived as a trivial matter by the public when dealing with medications that are no longer needed. However, improper disposal can effect on the economy, public health, and the environment. Therefore, it is essential to educate the public to improve their knowledge regarding appropriate drug disposal methods. Previous studies have shown that educational media can effectively increase public awareness and understanding. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of educational leaflets in enhancing public knowledge about proper drug disposal. This experimental study involved an intervention using educational leaflets. A total of 100 respondents participated in the study. The intervention was conducted over three consecutive days. Pretest and posttest data were collected to assess changes in knowledge. Univariate analysis was used to describe respondent characteristics, while bivariate analysis (Wilcoxon test) was employed to compare pretest and posttest results. Pretest data indicated that the majority of respondents had only sufficient knowledge about drug disposal. Following the intervention, the number of respondents with sufficient knowledge decreased, while those categorized as having good knowledge increased. Statistically, a p-value of 0.000 demonstrated that the use of leaflets significantly improved knowledge level. Based on the results of this study, educational interventions, such as the distribution of leaflets, can effectively enhance public knowledge about proper drug disposal.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by persistently high blood sugar levels, which can lead to complications such as diabetic foot issues. A crucial aspect for healthcare professionals providing care to DM patients is assessing the patient's level of adherence and understanding regarding self-care and disease management. Data from the 2023 SKI (Indonesian Health Survey) indicates there were 118,184 cases of Diabetes Mellitus in Central Java. Foot care education delivered via remote services assists patients in performing proper foot care to prevent complications associated with the condition. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of an animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior in improving the knowledge and adherence of patients with diabetic ulcers. A quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a one-group pre-test and post-test approach with a control group. Incidental sampling was used to select 60 respondents. The Mann-Whitney test yielded a p-value of < 0.05 (0.017), demonstrating that the animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior was effective in enhancing both adherence and knowledge among patients with diabetic ulcers. The findings suggest that this animated video, leveraging audiovisual media, can be implemented in educational settings to help prevent foot complications in patients with diabetes.

Flooding remains a recurrent hazard in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta (DKI Jakarta), causing substantial disruptions across multiple dimensions community life, including social well-being and economic activities. The availability of flood-related information through the Jakarta One Data Portal (Satu Data Jakarta) provides significant opportunities for broader data utilization; however, transforming such information into meaningful assessments regional vulnerability requires a systematic analytical approach to generate more comprehensive understanding of the conditions of individual urban villages (kelurahan). This study focuses on the classification areas based on the characteristics and impacts of flood events occurring throughout DKI Jakarta. The analysis utilizes flood event records from 2023 to 2025 and incorporates several indicators, including the number of flood occurrences, the number of affected neighborhood associations (RW), the number affected households, the number of affected residents, the number of evacuees, the number of evacuation sites, and floodwater depth. Data processing was conducted using the Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) framework, encompassing data selection, cleaning and preprocessing, transformation, pattern exploration, result evaluation, and knowledge extraction. The findings demonstrate that three-cluster solution effectively captures variations in flood vulnerability levels, corresponding to low-, moderate-, and high-risk categories. A total of 96 urban villages were classified as low-risk, 27 as moderate-risk, and 46 as high-risk areas. The resulting clustering patterns provide a clearer spatial representation of flood-risk distribution across urban villages, thereby offering valuable insights for the development more targeted mitigation strategies, the prioritization of flood management interventions, and the enhancement of evidence-based decision-making processes in DKI Jakarta.

Sharia financial literacy is an important aspect in supporting inclusive and sustainable economic development. However, the level of sharia financial literacy among Indonesian society is still relatively low. This condition creates opportunities for Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) to play a strategic role in improving young generations’ understanding of financial management based on sharia principles. Therefore, this community service activity aimed to enhance the sharia financial literacy and inclusion of students through the SAKINAH (Santri Cakap Literasi Keuangan Syariah) Program at Nurul Abshor Islamic Boarding School, Katingan Regency. The program was implemented using a participatory educational approach through socialization, interactive discussions, simple simulations, and participant evaluations. The activity was carried out through collaboration among the Financial Services Authority (OJK) of Central Kalimantan Province, the Islamic Economic Society of Katingan Regency, PT Bank Syariah Indonesia Palangka Raya, Nurul Abshor Islamic Boarding School, the Regional Financial Access Acceleration Team of Katingan Regency, and students of Palangka Raya University. The results showed an improvement in students’ understanding of the importance of saving, the ability to distinguish between needs and wants, sharia financial management, and knowledge of legal and trustworthy sharia financial products and services. The SAKINAH Program was also considered effective in encouraging students to become agents of sharia financial literacy within the pesantren environment and the wider community.

The urgency of this research stems from the knowledge gap regarding contextual factors contributing to the underuse of learning media in rural elementary schools, which has not been adequately addressed in previous research, which has tended to focus on urban contexts. This study aims to examine teachers' perceptions at Sugayang Public Elementary School regarding the underuse of learning media in the learning process, as well as the factors that contribute to it. The method used was a descriptive qualitative method, utilizing in-depth interviews as a data collection technique. The data were then analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques according to Miles and Huberman. The results showed that teachers experienced difficulties in using technology, difficulties in creating learning media, and the perception that using media was time-consuming. This reveals an important pattern that the underuse of learning media is a systematic problem rooted in the TPACK gap that is not supported by practical time management solutions. These findings imply that changes in learning practices will not occur simply through the provision of generic technology tools or training; rather, bottom-up and contextual solutions are needed. The novelty of this research lies in the in-depth qualitative approach applied to the under-researched context of rural elementary schools, which has not been studied before. This research contributes through recommendations for the implementation of a peer-mentoring program and the development of a ready-to-use digital learning media bank, thus offering valuable insights for future research with relevant stakeholders.

Introduction: Febrile seizures are seizure episodes that occur due to an increase in body temperature above 38°C without evidence of central nervous system infection such as meningitis or encephalitis. In Indonesia, the prevalence of febrile seizures is approximately 2–5% among children aged 6 months to 3 years, and around 30% of these cases experience recurrence or recurrent febrile seizures. Therefore, an appropriate nursing care plan is required to manage patients with febrile seizures. Methods: This scientific paper employed a descriptive narrative method to illustrate the provision of nursing care to patients through the nursing process approach. The general objective of this study was to understand and implement nursing care for patients with febrile seizures. Results: The nursing diagnoses identified in patients with febrile seizures were hyperthermia, risk for injury, and knowledge deficit. Nursing interventions included hyperthermia management, safety management, and health education. Conclusion: After two days of nursing implementation, two nursing diagnoses were resolved and one was partially resolved. Discharge planning included monitoring the patient's condition, particularly for seizure signs, maintaining a safe environment, educating the family about injury prevention during seizures, and encouraging family members to continuously supervise the patient.

Stroke is a neurological condition caused by disruption of blood flow to the brain due to blockage or rupture of blood vessels, leading to nerve cell death. WHO (2022) recorded more than 12 million new stroke cases annually, with a prevalence in Brebes Regency reaching 27.83 per mil. The high incidence of stroke accompanied by physical mobility impairment and the family's lack of knowledge about its management highlights the importance of comprehensive family nursing care. This study aims to apply a complete nursing care process including assessment, diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation to the family of Mr. K with a stroke case. The method used is descriptive with a case study approach through family nursing care. Assessment findings revealed that the patient had experienced stroke for approximately 7 years with a history of hypertension, weakness of the right extremities, decreased muscle strength, blood pressure of 160/90 mmHg, and the family did not understand how to care for stroke at home. Two nursing diagnoses were established: ineffective health maintenance in the family and impaired physical mobility. Interventions included health education about stroke, Range of Motion (ROM) exercises, and rubber ball grip therapy involving the family as caregivers. After 2 days of implementation, both nursing diagnoses were resolved: ineffective health maintenance in the family was resolved and impaired physical mobility was resolved.

The development of digital governance has accelerated the transformation of public financial management through e-budgeting, e-reporting, and integrated digital financial systems. However, studies discussing digital public financial management in cross-border areas remain fragmented and dispersed across disciplines. This study aims to systematically map the development of research on digital public financial management in cross-border contexts through publication trends, influential journals, active researchers, keyword patterns, countries, institutions, and research areas. This research employed a qualitative approach using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis based on 48 Scopus-indexed articles published between 2020 and 2026. The findings indicate that publications increased significantly after 2023, reflecting growing scholarly interest in cross-border digital finance and governance. The literature is dominated by economics and finance perspectives, while public financial governance and fiscal accountability in border areas remain underexplored. In addition, knowledge production is still concentrated in a limited number of countries and institutions, particularly in Europe. This study contributes by providing an intellectual mapping of the field and identifying opportunities for future research integrating digital governance, public financial management, and border studies.
