The selection of a thesis topic that aligns with students’ interests and competencies often poses a challenge in academic environments. Inappropriate topic selection can lead to decreased motivation and delays in completing the final project. This study aims to develop a thesis topic recommendation system based on a genetic algorithm that considers students’ interests and academic abilities. The data used include grades from core courses, results of research interest questionnaires, and a list of thesis topics provided by academic supervisors. Each topic is represented as a chromosome, while the fitness function is calculated based on the level of compatibility between student attributes and topics. The selection process employs the roulette wheel method, with single-point crossover and random mutation to generate an optimal solution population. The test results show that the recommendation system based on the genetic algorithm achieves an accuracy rate of 86.7%, higher than the keyword-matching method, which only reaches 71.2%. Therefore, this approach is proven effective in assisting students to determine thesis topics that are suitable, objective, and efficient.

Research on digital payment systems has grown rapidly over the past decades; however, comprehensive and in‑depth studies that synthesize existing empirical findings remain limited. This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis on digital payment research based on empirical publications indexed in Scopus. Using the keyword “Digital Payment” in the article title, abstract, and keywords, a total of 485 documents published between 1989 and 2025 were identified. The evaluation was conducted on November 30, 2025, and the collected data were analyzed using bibliometric techniques with VOSviewer software. The findings reveal a significant surge in digital payment research beginning in 2016, with its peak occurring during 2023–2025, in line with the accelerating digital economic transformation worldwide. Knowledge production has shifted toward emerging economies—particularly India, Indonesia, and Malaysia—supported by dense inter‑institutional and inter‑author collaboration networks. Research themes have expanded beyond technical payment system aspects to interdisciplinary issues involving technology, finance, financial inclusion, human behavior, public policy, and the application of machine learning for security and system optimization. Journal sources, affiliations, authors, and keyword analyses confirm that digital payments have become essential infrastructure for the modern economy and a rich empirical domain for advanced studies on financial stability, consumer protection, regulation, and digital financial innovation.

This study conducts a systematic literature review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis to map and synthesize research on digital transformation in talent management and its impact on employee retention in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). Against the backdrop of high turnover rates and intense competition for talent, this research aims to identify the key interconnections between digital technologies, talent management practices, and retention outcomes within the MSME context. The methodology involved a comprehensive analysis of reputable databases using VOSviewer software for bibliometric mapping, focusing on co-authorship, co-occurrence, and citation networks. The findings reveal a robust, interconnected model centered on three core pillars: the adoption of digital technologies (e.g., AI, cloud-based HR systems), the implementation of strategic talent practices (notably digital employer branding and work flexibility), and the critical mediating role of employee psychological factors (job satisfaction and organizational commitment). The analysis demonstrates that successful retention in MSMEs is not merely a function of technological adoption but is achieved through a synergistic integration where technology enables effective talent management, which in turn fosters commitment and reduces turnover intention. This review contributes a comprehensive conceptual model that clarifies these dynamic relationships. The practical implication for MSME managers is the necessity of a holistic strategy that simultaneously develops digital infrastructure, refines talent management, and cultivates a supportive organizational culture to secure a sustainable competitive advantage through enhanced employee retention.

Digital transformation has become a major driver in enhancing the competitiveness of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the era of global competition. However, scientific evidence regarding the pathway of digital transformation and its impact on market performance remains separately distributed and has not been systematically synthesized. This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) based on PRISMA 2020 on international publications within the 2013–2024 range. The results of the analysis indicate that the digital transformation pathway encompasses digital capability, digital orientation, digital integration, digital strategy alignment, and the utilization of operational technology. Each pathway contributes differently to market outcomes such as sales growth, customer retention, market expansion, and competitive advantage. The study also found the presence of moderating and mediating roles through innovation capability, dynamic capability, organizational culture, and competition intensity. This research produces an integrated conceptual model and recommendations for a further research agenda to deepen strategic management theory in the context of MSMEs.

This study confirms that brand trust and product involvement have an important role in increasing brand engagement among Kamen RareBali consumers. The analysis results show that brand trust has a significant positive effect, meaning that the higher the level of consumer trust in the brand, the greater their involvement with the brand, both through interactions on social media and product purchases. This is in line with the theory that trust in the brand is an important foundation in building loyalty and long-term relationships with consumers. Meanwhile, product involvement also shows a significant positive effect, indicating that consumers who feel more involved, interested, or care about the product tend to be more active in brand engagement . These findings indicate that Kamen RareBali needs a strategy that emphasizes improving consumer experience with the product, including through educational content, interactive promotions, and personalized services. Simultaneously, these two variables explain 63.1% of the variation in brand engagement , implying that other factors such as service quality, shopping experience, and communication strategy also influence consumer engagement. The practical implication is that companies should focus on building brand trust through positive reputation, testimonials, and transparency, as well as increasing product engagement through emotional experiences and meaningful interactions.

The purpose of this study is to examine and explain the influence of workload on job satisfaction with job stress as a mediating variable at PT. BPR Karya Artha Sejahtera Indonesia. This research employs a quantitative causality approach with a sample of 86 respondents selected using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using inferential analysis with the SEM-PLS (Structural Equation Modeling – Partial Least Squares) method through the SmartPLS version 4.0 software. The results indicate that workload has a positive effect on job stress and a negative effect on job satisfaction. Job stress has a negative effect on job satisfaction and is proven to mediate the relationship between workload and job satisfaction. These findings support the two-factor theory and emphasize that poorly distributed workload can cause employees to experience stress at work. Job stress can reduce employees’ satisfaction with their jobs. This study is expected to provide practical contributions to the research site in improving job satisfaction by considering workload and job stress.

This study employs the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method following the PRISMA 2020 Statement guidelines to identify the main models and indicators used in measuring the performance of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). The literature selection process includes the stages of identification, screening, eligibility assessment, and inclusion, resulting in ten articles from reputable Q1 international journals. The analysis reveals that the most frequently used performance measurement models are integrated performance models such as the Balanced Scorecard, Performance Prism, and models based on resource capability, customer, internal process, and financial perspectives. Commonly used indicators include sales growth, profitability, market share, customer satisfaction, process flexibility, technology adoption, and business sustainability. The study concludes that although financial measures remain dominant, non-financial dimensions—such as digital capability, stakeholder engagement, and internal process effectiveness—are increasingly important for MSMEs operating in the context of global market dynamics and digital transformation. The implications of this study provide theoretical contributions to the development of MSME performance measurement frameworks and offer practical guidance for MSME managers in selecting indicators that align with the characteristics of small and medium-sized enterprises.

This research is motivated by challenges in biology learning, including the lack of digital literacy assessment in schools and the use of conventional learning methods that tend to make students bored. Impractical printed teaching materials cannot be integrated into the form of videos. This research aims to develop an e-module based on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) to analyze the feasibility, practicality, and effectiveness of e-modules in improving students' understanding of concepts and digital literacy on human respiratory system materials. This research uses the Development Research (R&D) method with the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) development model.  The research was carried out at SMAN 1 Malinau. The implementation stage used a non-equivalent control group  design involving 34 students in the experimental class and the control class. Data collection instruments include validation sheets for media and material experts, practicality questionnaires for teachers and students, and pretest-posttest  tests to measure concept understanding and digital literacy.  Analysis of effectiveness data using N-gain test and hypothesis test (independent sample t-test for concept understanding and Mann-Whitney for digital literacy). The results of the research based on the validation of media experts and subject matter experts show that the STEM-based e-module is declared "Excellent". The e-module is also rated "Very Practical" by biology teachers and students. The e-module was shown to be effective in improving conceptual understanding, where the average N-gain value of the experimental class (58.63; Quite Effective category) was significantly higher (p=0.017) than that of the control class (40.62).

The Indonesian language holds a strategic role as a unifying national language as well as the medium of instruction in education. However, this role has not been fully internalized within indigenous communities such as the Baduy Dalam tribe, which is known for its strong adherence to tradition and the use of the Baduy dialect of Sundanese in daily life. This study aims to reveal the role of the Indonesian language in communication and education within the Baduy Dalam community and to analyze how the national language is adopted amidst the strong local culture. This research employs a qualitative method with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document studies conducted within the Baduy Dalam community in Lebak Regency, Banten. The results indicate that the Indonesian language is beginning to be used in educational contexts, especially in formal schools around the Baduy area, although its use remains limited in everyday interactions among community members. Proficiency and understanding of Indonesian are more dominant among the younger generation who receive formal education. The social implications of these findings include the opening of access to broader information and knowledge for the Baduy Dalam people, but also present challenges in preserving local language and cultural values. This study recommends educational approaches based on local wisdom to ensure that the role of the Indonesian language progresses in harmony with the preservation of the Baduy Dalam cultural identity.

Legal certainty (rechtssicherheit) is a fundamental pillar of the rule of law, ensuring that legal provisions are clear, consistent, and predictable. In the Indonesian criminal justice system, the Public Prosecutor holds a central position as the Dominus Litis (the owner of the case), determining which cases proceed to court. However, the implementation of prosecutorial authority often leans towards rigid legal positivism, creating a paradox where procedural certainty is achieved at the expense of substantive justice. Disparities in prosecution demands for similar crimes often lead to public distrust and legal uncertainty for justice seekers. This study aims to analyze the challenges in maintaining legal certainty and proposes a strategy to enhance the prosecutor's role through the integration of Restorative Justice and professional discretion. The research employs a normative juridical method with statutory and conceptual approaches, analyzing Attorney General Regulation No. 15 of 2020. The study finds that enhancing legal certainty requires shifting the paradigm from "mechanical prosecution" to "discretionary prosecution" based on conscience. To achieve this, prosecutors must be equipped with high-level cognitive skills to interpret "certainty" not just as textual compliance, but as the consistent application of fairness.

Corruption in Indonesia is not merely a moral transgression but an extraordinary economic crime that depletes national resources. The ultimate objective of corruption eradication, therefore, must be the restoration of state financial losses (asset recovery).  However, the current formulation of the criminal law system specifically Article 18 of Law No. 31 of 1999 contains a critical policy flaw. The provision of "Subsidiary Imprisonment" (Pidana Pengganti) allows convicts to substitute their financial restitution obligations with a disproportionately short prison term. This mechanism inadvertently provides an economic incentive for corruptors to conceal assets and choose imprisonment, resulting in significant state revenue loss. This study aims to critique the current penal policy formulation and propose a comprehensive reformulation of the compensation system. The research employs a normative-juridical method with a statutory and conceptual approach, utilizing the "Economic Analysis of Law" theory to evaluate the efficiency of sanctions. The study argues that the penal policy must shift from a "person-based" approach (in personam) to an "asset-based" approach (in rem). It is imperative to abolish the subsidiary imprisonment option for high-value corruption and implement "Non-Conviction Based Forfeiture" to maximize the recovery of state losses. Furthermore, this policy shift requires law enforcers with high-level cognitive skills to trace complex financial trails.

The Prosecutor's Office of the Republic of Indonesia (Kejaksaan RI) is currently undergoing a significant paradigmatic shift following the enactment of Law No. 11 of 2021. While historically viewed primarily as a prosecution agency (Dominus Litis) in criminal matters, the current legal landscape demands a stronger role in Civil and State Administrative Law (Datun). However, the institutionalization of the Attorney General as the "Supreme Legal Advisor" to the government remains suboptimal, often overshadowed by its repressive functions. This normative ambiguity hinders the state's ability to receive unified and binding legal opinions. This study aims to analyze the normative basis for this transformation and proposes an institutional framework to establish the Attorney General as the sole authority for state legal counsel. The research employs a normative juridical method with statutory and comparative approaches, analyzing the new Prosecutor's Law and comparing it with the Solliciteur-Generaal concept in other jurisdictions. The study finds that the 2021 amendment provides the necessary legal standing for this transformation, but it requires a competency upgrade for prosecutors to handle complex non-litigation issues. Strengthening the Attorney General's role as the Supreme Legal Advisor is essential to ensure legal certainty in government policies and prevent state financial losses.

This study discusses consumer protection in the circulation of illegal cosmetic products through electronic commerce systems, focusing on the implementation of Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection. The main problems of the research include legal regulations related to illegal cosmetics, legal provisions regarding electronic commerce, and consumer protection mechanisms against the circulation of illegal cosmetics on e-commerce platforms. This study uses a qualitative method with a normative legal research approach through literature studies, which involves primary, secondary, and tertiary data sources. The results of the study show that cosmetic distribution permits are regulated in the Regulation of the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency Number 12 of 2023 concerning the Supervision of the Manufacture and Circulation of Cosmetics. In electronic commerce, transactions occur electronically between sellers and buyers by involving a third party as the platform provider. Dispute resolution between consumers and business actors is regulated in the Consumer Protection Law through two channels, namely litigation and out-of-court dispute resolution. The research concluded that every cosmetic in circulation must have a distribution permit in the form of a BPOM Notification, and business actors are responsible for providing compensation in the form of refunds or product replacements. The research recommendations emphasize the importance of consumer prudence, honesty of business actors, and the government's firmness in handling consumer problems.
