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.

The study uses ASTRID Analysis to identify strategic issues and a Design Thinking approach consisting of the Empathize, Define, Ideate, and Prototype stages. Empathy Map and Persona were also used to understand user needs. System testing was conducted using Black Box Testing to assess functionality and the System Usability Scale (SUS) to evaluate user experience. The results show that SIMODIS was successfully developed with features such as an admin dashboard, digital disposition forms, and a public mail status search portal. The SUS score reached 83, categorized as Excellent, indicating high usability and user acceptance.

The presence of street vendors in urban areas is a social phenomenon that is inseparable from the economic dynamics of urban communities. On the one hand, street vendors provide an alternative source of livelihood for people in the informal sector; on the other hand, their presence is often seen as disrupting public order, urban aesthetics, and the function of public spaces. This situation gives rise to social conflict between local governments—as the authorities responsible for urban planning—and street vendors who are defending their economic space. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of social conflict in the process of regulating street vendors in urban areas and to identify the factors influencing the emergence of public resistance to regulation policies. The study employs a qualitative approach using descriptive methods. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The research findings indicate that social conflicts arising from street vendor regulation are influenced by conflicting interests between the government and vendors, poor policy communication, limited relocation space, and economic factors affecting urban communities. Repressive enforcement measures tend to provoke social resistance, whereas dialogic and participatory approaches are more effective in reducing conflict. This study emphasizes that the management of street vendors cannot be understood solely as a matter of urban order, but also involves aspects of social justice and the community’s right to sustain their economic livelihoods.

This study is motivated by the proliferation of regulations that facilitate the exploitative extraction of natural resources in Indonesia as a consequence of the penetration of neoliberal ideology, which deviates from the mandate of Article 33 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The significance of this research lies in the strategic role of Muhammadiyah through the "Constitutional Jihad" movement in restoring state sovereignty over natural resources for the benefit of the public welfare. The study aims to analyze the philosophical foundations of Constitutional Jihad in reconstructing the vision of a Progressive Indonesia (Indonesia Berkemajuan) and to examine Muhammadiyah’s legal advocacy strategies in resisting the hegemony of liberal economic policies. The research focuses on how Muhammadiyah’s philosophical framework and litigation strategies are capable of correcting national energy policies, as reflected in Constitutional Court Decision Number 36/PUU-X/2012. This research employs a normative legal method using statutory, case, and theological-ideological approaches. The findings reveal that, philosophically, Constitutional Jihad represents the transformation of Al-Ma’un theology and the concept of Darul Ahdi wa Syahadah into a constitutional framework that integrates divine sovereignty with popular sovereignty. In terms of strategy, Muhammadiyah utilizes Public Interest Litigation supported by interdisciplinary expert collaboration and moral mobilization rooted in civil society. The analysis of Constitutional Court Decision No. 36/PUU-X/2012 demonstrates that Muhammadiyah’s advocacy successfully invalidated unconstitutional provisions of the Oil and Gas Law that had weakened state control, while simultaneously reaffirming the state's direct management function over natural resources. The study concludes that Constitutional Jihad constitutes an effective form of national ijtihad in reconstructing a progressive, sovereign, and socially just legal order in Indonesia.

Anxiety during pregnancy is one of the most common psychological problems experienced by pregnant women, particularly during the third trimester when they face childbirth preparation as well as various physical and emotional changes. If not properly managed, anxiety may adversely affect both maternal and fetal health. This study aimed to describe the level of anxiety among third-trimester pregnant women at Mlati II Public Health Center in 2026. This research employed a descriptive quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The study involved 40 third-trimester pregnant women selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) questionnaire and analyzed through univariate analysis in the form of frequency and percentage distributions. The results showed that most respondents were of healthy reproductive age (20–35 years) (92.5%), primigravida (67.5%), had a secondary level of education (70%), and were unemployed (70%). The respondents' anxiety levels were categorized as no anxiety (47.5%), mild anxiety (47.5%), and moderate anxiety (5%), while no cases of severe anxiety or panic were identified. The most dominant anxiety indicators were anxious feelings, tension, respiratory symptoms, and sleep disturbances. These findings indicate that some third-trimester pregnant women still experience anxiety, highlighting the need for early detection, health education, and psychological support through antenatal care services to promote maternal mental well-being during pregnancy.

This study aims to examine the historical origins and development of the sociology of education, explore the biographies and ideas of key scholars from both Islamic and Western traditions, and analyze their relevance in the context of modern education. The development of education has always been closely linked to social, political, and economic dynamics, which gave rise to the sociology of education as a discipline that investigates the relationship between education and social change. Contemporary challenges such as social inequality, the impacts of globalization and technological advancement, and the growing demand for the democratization of education require a comprehensive examination of the major sociological theories that have emerged over time. This research employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method through the analysis of relevant books and scholarly journal articles. The findings indicate that the ideas of scholars such as Ibn Khaldun, Auguste Comte, Émile Durkheim, Karl Marx, Max Weber, Herbert Spencer, George Herbert Mead, Talcott Parsons, and Ali Shariati have made significant contributions to understanding the functions, conflicts, and interactions within education. Structural functionalist, conflict, and symbolic interactionist theories provide complementary analytical frameworks for explaining education’s role as a means of social integration, an arena for the reproduction of inequality, and a space for the construction of meaning and identity. By adopting a comparative approach across different intellectual traditions, this study offers a holistic perspective for the development of the sociology of education in the modern era.

This study examines how profitability affects company value among manufacturing firms included in the LQ45 index during the 2023–2025 period, with debt policy serving as a moderating variable. Increasing business competition encourages companies to improve their financial performance and market value to attract investors and maintain long-term sustainability. A quantitative research approach with a causal research design was employed to analyze the relationship between the variables. The study used secondary data obtained from audited annual financial statements published on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Data analysis was conducted using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the assistance of SPSS version 26. The results indicate that profitability has a significant positive effect on firm value, suggesting that higher profitability enhances investor confidence and contributes to higher market valuations. Furthermore, debt policy significantly moderates the relationship between profitability and firm value by strengthening the influence of profitability. The coefficient of determination increased from below thirteen percent to more than sixty-three percent after including the moderating variable. These findings demonstrate that effective debt management combined with strong profitability contributes to higher firm value and supports sustainable corporate growth and long-term investor confidence.

Traditional wedding rituals constitute intangible cultural heritage rich in symbolic meaning, serving to strengthen social solidarity and transmit cultural values. The massive penetration of modernization and digitalization has created new pressures for the Bugis-Makassar community in maintaining this heritage. This study analyzes the transformation of Bugis-Makassar traditional wedding rituals in South Sulawesi within the digital era context, focusing on how the community negotiates their cultural identity between the forces of tradition and modernity. Using a critical ethnographic approach with a multiple case study design grounded in Bhabha's concept of the third space, the study involved 42 informants from three groups: young couples (digital generation, aged 22–35), parents/family (middle generation, 40–60), and customary elders (to panrita lopi/bissu, 65+) in Makassar City, Bone Regency, and Wajo Regency. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation in 12 wedding ceremonies, and social media content analysis. Results reveal three main transformation patterns: (1) digital spectacularization—rituals adapted for social media consumption; (2) reflective selectivity—young couples actively choosing which traditional elements to retain; and (3) procedural hybridization—the integration of customary procedures with contemporary elements. These transformations are colored by intergenerational contestation that generally ends in compromise between demands for customary completeness and the aesthetic preferences of the younger generation. The study concludes that this transformation is not merely a loss of tradition, but a creative form of identity negotiation in which the Bugis-Makassar community actively reconstructs the meaning of siri' (self-esteem/dignity) and pesse (solidarity) within the changed socio-cultural landscape. The findings imply the need for cultural preservation policies that understand change as inherent to living culture, and open avenues for longitudinal studies on the intergenerational transmission of cultural values.

Manual teaching journal management at SMA Negeri 1 Kayen frequently leads to documentation inefficiencies, risks of data loss, and challenges in the teaching supervision process. This research tends to design and develop a web-based teacher teaching journal information system employing the CodeIgniter 3 framework with a Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture. The system was improved employing the Waterfall methodology, comprising requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance phases. The system integrates four user roles—administrator, teacher, student, and supervisor—to support the digitalization of recording processes, real-time teacher attendance verification by students, and centralized activity monitoring. Black Box Testing outcomes present that all system functions, involving authentication, data management, and reporting, operate 100% in accordance with user requirements. The implementation of this system effectively reduces administrative time compared to manual methods while enhancing the accountability and transparency of teaching journal management within the school. With centralized data integration, this system helps as an effective solution for supporting data-driven managerial decision-making in education.

Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) has become a key objective of English language education; however, its implementation in Indonesia remains insufficiently understood. This study investigates the alignment between ICC expectations in the Kurikulum Merdeka, English textbooks, and classroom practices in Indonesian senior high schools. An exploratory sequential mixed methods design was employed, involving document analysis of four government-issued English textbooks for grades X–XII, classroom observations in 15 schools across three provinces, a survey of 87 English teachers, and in-depth interviews with 18 teachers and 36 students. The findings reveal a three-level gap. First, the curriculum acknowledges ICC but lacks clear and measurable operational guidelines. Second, textbooks predominantly emphasize Anglo-American culture (64.8% of cultural content) while providing limited representation of Indonesian and global cultures. Third, 78.2% of teachers reported not explicitly integrating cultural dimensions into English instruction, resulting in stereotypical and culturally limited classroom practices. To address these issues, the study proposes the Triangulated Cultural Literacy (TCL) framework, integrating reflection on learners’ own culture, balanced exploration of target cultures, and intercultural negotiation. The findings highlight the need to operationalize ICC in the curriculum, improve textbook cultural representation, and strengthen teachers’ intercultural pedagogical competence.

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of financial constraints on workforce management practices in agricultural companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2022 and 2025. Earnings management was measured using the DeAngelo Discretionary Accrual model, while financial distress was measured using the Altman Z-Score. A purposive sample yielded 32 observations, and the data were analyzed quantitatively using simple linear regression in SPSS. The analysis results showed that Financial Distress had no significant effect on Earnings Management, with a significance value of 0.718 (>0.05). The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.004 indicates that only 0.4% of the variation in earnings management practices can be explained by financial distress, while the remaining 99.6% is influenced by factors outside this model. This finding suggests that the adoption of earnings management strategies in pharmaceutical companies is not primarily driven by financial distress. Therefore, it is recommended that future research include additional variables that could potentially influence earnings management.

As a maritime nation with vast sea territories, Indonesia faces significant challenges in safeguarding its waters, particularly in strategic regions such as the Natuna Sea. This area is vulnerable to various threats, including territorial violations, marine resource theft, and illegal underwater activities. This study aims to formulate a concept for the utilization of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) as an alternative solution to enhance underwater security systems in the region. The method employed is Research and Development (R&D), adopting model development steps and complemented by a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of AUVs in the context of Indonesian maritime defense. The research findings indicate that the main strength of AUVs lies in their technological capability to effectively detect underwater threats. Although they have weaknesses, such as high operational costs, dependency on imported components, and limitations in battery endurance and sonar capabilities, these factors do not significantly hinder AUV effectiveness. Major opportunities arise from global technological advancements, yet challenges remain due to insufficient government policy support. The threats faced include the risk of sabotage and extreme weather conditions. Therefore, the recommended strategies are to maximize the use of technology, strengthen supporting regulations, and address logistical and financial barriers to realize effective and sustainable AUV operations in the Natuna Sea.
