As the foundation and official ideology of the Indonesian state, Pancasila plays a crucial role in guiding the management of national affairs and the overall conduct of state life. The core principles of Pancasila divinity, humanism, unity, democracy, and social justice reflect the character, identity, and collective values of the diverse Indonesian people. The purpose of this study is to examine in depth the function of Pancasila as a state ideology and the significance of implementing its principles in contemporary and evolving society. Through the exploration and analysis of various scholarly sources, including books, academic journals, and official state documents, this research employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method. The findings indicate that Pancasila functions not only as the nation’s way of life but also as the philosophical foundation of the state and a unifying ideology within Indonesia’s heterogeneous society. Furthermore, the preservation of national identity, the strengthening of social cohesion and peace, and the ability to face the challenges of industrialization and globalization are highly dependent on the successful internalization of Pancasila’s values. Therefore, to achieve sustainable and inclusive national development, consistent and continuous efforts are required to enhance understanding, appreciation, and implementation of Pancasila’s values across all levels of society.

This research aims to describe the forms and functions of representative speech acts found in the YouTube video “The Basic Concept of Understanding Humans” by Cania Citta. The study arises from the phenomenon of digital communication, which demonstrates a shift in speech patterns from merely delivering information to constructing intellectual discourse that is both reflective and argumentative. A descriptive qualitative method with a pragmatic approach was employed. The data, consisting of representative utterances, were collected through observation and note-taking techniques on video transcripts, then analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, which involves data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the dominant representative speech acts include stating, explaining, reporting, concluding, and speculating. Each utterance functions not only to convey information but also to build rational argumentation and foster critical awareness among audiences regarding the concept of humanity. Illocutionarily, these utterances perform informative, argumentative, and reflective functions, emphasizing the speaker’s epistemic responsibility toward the truth of the propositions delivered. The perlocutionary effects include an increased interest and heightened critical awareness among audiences concerning philosophical issues about human nature. This study contributes to the development of pragmatic studies, particularly in understanding the role of language as an instrument of knowledge and persuasion in digital media.

In conveying messages, speakers use utterances. Utterances are forms of speech that contain various communicative functions according to the context and purpose of communication. Speech acts are the main element in verbal interactions that reflect social actions in the form of speech. Speech acts are actions manifested in the form of speech that have a special meaning. One type of speech act is the illocutionary speech act. The purpose of this study is to analyze and describe the types and forms of illocutionary speech acts in negotiation texts in the revised edition of Indonesian language books. This research method uses qualitative descriptions and pragmatic analysis. Data collection in this study uses reading and note-taking techniques and purposive sampling. Based on the data analysis, the author has identified 171 illocutionary speech acts, including assertive, directive, commissive, expressive, and declarative. Based on the research, the author found that assertive, directive, and expressive speech acts predominate. Commissive speech acts numbered twenty-seven, and declarative speech acts numbered the least, namely seven. This research is expected to provide students with an understanding of the types of illocutionary speech acts, enhance their knowledge, and enable them to use them effectively and correctly.

This study aims to analyze the role of the Protocol Division in supporting the activities and performance of regional leaders, particularly from the functional and interpersonal aspects in local government administration. The study employs a qualitative approach using Qualitative Secondary Analysis (QSA) through a review of literature, policy documents, and relevant previous research on protocol functions within government organizations. The analysis is grounded in organizational role theory and managerial role concepts. The results indicate that the Protocol Division plays a strategic role in supporting the effectiveness of regional leaders’ duties through two main dimensions. First, the functional role, which includes managing the regional leader’s activity agenda, organizing protocol-related events, arranging official ceremonies, and coordinating with regional apparatus and relevant institutions to ensure smooth implementation of government activities. Second, the interpersonal role, which encompasses acting as a communication liaison between the regional leader and various stakeholders, facilitating inter-agency working relationships, and supporting the representative function of the regional leader in official and community social events. The findings suggest that the successful execution of regional leaders’ activities is influenced not only by the leaders’ own leadership capacity but also by the effectiveness of organizational support from units that assist leadership, such as the Protocol Division. This role contributes to enhancing coordination effectiveness, ensuring smooth implementation of government activities, and strengthening the image and authority of regional leaders in performing their leadership functions. Therefore, strengthening institutional capacity, improving human resource competencies, and utilizing information technology in managing leadership activities are crucial factors in optimizing the role of the Protocol Division in local governance.

This study aims to analyze the practice of interfaith communication in the process of institutionalizing multicultural values ​​in Pekalongan City. The study uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation of religious leaders involved in interfaith communication activities. The results show that the practice of interfaith communication occurs through dialogue between religious leaders and open communication interactions in various community forums. From the perspective of George Herbert Mead's symbolic interaction, this communication process demonstrates an exchange of meaning (mind) that builds a shared understanding of tolerance and respect for differences. In addition, interfaith communication also shapes the self-awareness of religious leaders as social agents maintaining harmony (self) while strengthening inclusive social relations in a multicultural society (society). The research findings indicate that interfaith communication functions in two ways: first, as a means of dialogue between religious leaders, and second, as a social mechanism in the institutionalization of multicultural values ​​that supports the realization of religious harmony in Pekalongan City.

The diversity of students’ study motivations in theological higher education presents both challenges and opportunities in shaping the spirituality of prospective Christian Religious Education (CRE) teachers. Not all students enter the CRE program based on a calling to ministry, resulting in varying levels of initial spiritual readiness. This study aims to analyze the process of spiritual formation among CRE students as prospective teachers at STT Katharos Indonesia Bekasi in the context of diverse study motivations, referring to James W. Fowler’s theory of faith development. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving CRE students. The findings reveal that despite diverse initial motivations, the integrated theological education process through academic learning, ministry practices, community life, and spiritual formation effectively fosters faith growth and personal encounters with Christ. This process contributes to the development of students’ spiritual maturity. The study concludes that CRE education functions as an effective means of faith transformation in preparing prospective teachers with strong spiritual integrity and readiness for ministry.

This research aims to comprehensively map how the participatory mentoring model functions as a catalyst in the transformation of agency and social position of women, particularly in the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) sector. This review evaluates the dialectics between external interventions and the transformation of patriarchal social structures at the local level. The study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology, adopting the PRISMA 2020 protocol. A systematic search was conducted on the Scopus database for empirical peer-reviewed articles published between 2021 and 2026. Through stringent inclusion and exclusion criteria, 33 articles were selected for analysis using a thematic synthesis approach. The thematic analysis resulted in five main clusters: (1)Gender-specific institutional interventions are more effective through the social enterprise model than through pure philanthropy.(2)Multidimensional structural barriers such as cultural norms and political instability continue to limit women's bargaining positions. (3)The transformation of agency often occurs through quiet encroachment in public spaces.(4)Cultural capital in traditional entrepreneurship serves as an instrument of economic autonomy while preserving identity. (5)Collective action becomes a determining factor in shifting gender norms and achieving holistic well-being. The transformation of women's social position requires an active negotiation process supported by gender-conscious structural changes, rather than mere income enhancement. Participatory mentoring must shift from mere technical transfer to a knowledge partnership capable of dismantling patriarchal narratives and building women's agency as autonomous subjects of development.

This study aims to analyze the forms and strategies of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) empowerment implemented in Sukadamai Village, Lemito District, Pohuwato Regency; to examine the roles of business actors, village government, and the social environment in supporting MSME empowerment; and to identify the impact of MSME empowerment on family economic independence. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving the Head of Sukadamai Village and 12 MSME actors as key informants. The findings reveal that MSME empowerment in Sukadamai Village has been implemented through the provision of business equipment assistance and informal mentoring activities. However, such support remains limited and has not been distributed evenly across all MSME sectors. The village government primarily functions as a facilitator and initial supporter, while MSME actors play an active role in sustaining their businesses as the main source of household income, supported by family members and the surrounding social environment. The impact of MSME empowerment on family economic independence is reflected in households’ ability to meet their basic needs independently and reduce their reliance on external assistance. Nevertheless, the level of economic independence achieved remains relatively limited due to the absence of structured business development programs and inadequate financial management practices.

This is a worrying issue in the digital age and has been shown to significantly contribute to low student academic achievement. This research aims to examine the role of Guidance and Counseling (BK) services in addressing social media addiction in students with low academic achievement. The method used in this research is library research with a qualitative approach through content analysis and literature synthesis techniques sourced from various scientific references published between 2020 and 2025. The results show that students addicted to social media have low self-control, resulting in academic procrastination and a consistent decline in learning achievement. GC services have proven to play a strategic role through preventive, curative, and developmental functions implemented through classical guidance, individual counseling, and group counseling. The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach and self-management technique have proven most effective in helping students reduce social media addiction and improve learning discipline. However, the effectiveness of GC services is still constrained by the non-ideal ratio of counseling teachers, the lack of digital literacy-based GC programs, and students' negative stigma toward counseling services. This study recommends developing GC programs specifically designed to address digital addiction by involving the entire school ecosystem consistently.

This study aims to analyze the manifestation of Indonesian unity values within the local wisdom of Kresnayana in Blitar Regency, particularly through the “Hasta Brata” performance. As a multicultural nation, Indonesia possesses diversity that represents both potential and challenge; therefore, strengthening unity values through various media, including local wisdom, is essential. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design to explore the experiences and involvement of cultural actors in the Kresnayana performance. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, documentation, and literature review using snowball sampling techniques, and were analyzed inductively through data reduction, triangulation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that Kresnayana, which originates from the reliefs of Penataran Temple, functions not only as a medium for cultural preservation but also as a means of educating unity values. In the “Hasta Brata” performance, the value of unity is reflected in the complementary relationship between Arjuna and Kresna; the value of togetherness is demonstrated through the cooperation between Anoman and Arjuna; the value of patriotism is evident in efforts to maintain world peace; and the value of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika is illustrated through the unity of characters from diverse backgrounds. Furthermore, the festival serves as a contextual learning medium in Pancasila and Civic Education (PPKn) and supports the strengthening of the Pancasila Student Profile. Thus, Kresnayana represents a concrete manifestation of the implementation of unity values in community life through a local cultural approach.

The election of regional heads is a form of democratic implementation that requires the active participation of the community as voters. However, in its implementation, various obstacles are still found such as low voter participation, limited access to information, and lack of efficiency in the conventional voting process. This research aims to develop an online-based regional head election information system as a solution to increase voter participation through the use of digital technology. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with a Waterfall system development model which includes the stages of needs analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and evaluation. The developed system provides features of voter registration, candidate information, online voting process, and real-time recapitulation of vote results. The system test is carried out using the Black Box Testing method and shows that all system functions are running according to the user's needs. The results of this study show that the implementation of an online-based election information system can provide easy access, increase transparency, and encourage community involvement, especially young voters, in the process of electing regional heads. Thus, this system has the potential to become a digital innovation that supports improving the quality of local democracy.

The development of digital media has encouraged various forms of identity representation on video-sharing platforms such as YouTube. In this context, mukbang content functions not only as entertainment but also as a medium for constructing creators’ personal branding. This study aims to analyze how personal branding is constructed in food vlogging and mukbang content produced by Tanboy Kun on YouTube. This research employs a qualitative approach using qualitative content analysis to identify communication patterns, visual representations, and thematic consistency within the videos. The analysis is based on six indicators of personal branding by Montoya and Vandehey (2002): specialization, personality, distinctiveness, visibility, persistence, and goodwill, reinforced by Roland Barthes’ semiotic approach at the levels of denotation, connotation, and myth. The findings indicate that personal branding is constructed through the consistent concept of extreme and spicy food as specialization, expressive communication style as personality, content differentiation as distinctiveness, upload intensity as visibility, format continuity as persistence, and positive image formation through attitudes and interaction as goodwill. These results demonstrate that personal branding in mukbang content is strategically formed through consistent and structured representation. This study contributes to digital communication research, particularly in understanding personal identity construction in video-based media.

Bronchopneumonia is a lower respiratory tract infection that remains a major health problem, especially in children, which can cause impaired gas exchange and ultimately decrease oxygen saturation. This condition, if not immediately treated, can lead to hypoxia and improve the patient's clinical condition. One intervention frequently administered in the emergency room is nebulizer therapy, which functions to help widen the airways, reduce secretion production, and improve pulmonary ventilation. This study aims to determine the effect of nebulizer therapy on increasing oxygen saturation in bronchopneumonia patients in the emergency room of Dr. Dody Sardjoto Air Force Hospital. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The study sample was bronchopneumonia patients who received nebulizer therapy intervention in the emergency room. The results showed an increase in oxygen saturation after nebulizer therapy with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant effect. Thus, nebulizer therapy is proven effective in increasing oxygen saturation and can be used as a treatment intervention in the management of oxygenation disorders in bronchopneumonia patients.  

This study aims to explain the ambiguous role of higher education institutions in ensuring the safety and human rights of students as citizens. The increasing number of cases of academic violence, bullying, and excessive pressure indicates that the functions of universities are often limited to purely administrative aspects, thereby neglecting the need for legal protection. This research employs a normative legal method with a conceptual analysis approach to examine how the state, through its legal framework, defines the role of universities as both educational institutions and legal entities in carrying out the delegated responsibility of protecting human rights. The findings reveal that the state has not succeeded in effectively regulating student protection, as there is a significant gap between central regulations and their implementation within autonomous campuses. Although the state normatively requires universities to provide a safe environment for students, the lack of adequate oversight systems has resulted in protection measures that are largely reactive. This condition leaves limited room for preventive actions, indicating that the protection of students’ rights has not yet been implemented in a comprehensive and sustainable manner.

This research aims to analyze the urgency of implementing Statement of Use, Declaration of Use, and Specimen of Use instruments as a means of supervising trademark use obligations in Indonesia. Currently, Law Number 20 of 2016 concerning Trademarks and Geographical Indications (UU MIG) only requires a written statement of use without being accompanied by concrete evidence at the time of renewal applications. This creates a loophole for trademark registrations without the intent to use (non-use), which can hinder bona fide applicants.  This study employs a normative legal research method with a comparative law approach between the UU MIG and the Lanham Act (U.S. Trademark Act of 1946). The Lanham Act mandates proof of actual trademark use through a Statement of Use for intent-to-use applications, as well as a Declaration of Use for applications based on use-in-commerce, which must be submitted with a Specimen of Use as actual evidence of the trademark's use in trade.  The results indicate that the adoption of these instruments into the Indonesian legal system is urgent to strengthen the supervisory function of the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DGIP). This implementation would enable the DGIP to conduct administrative (ex-officio) trademark cancellations for non-use, thereby purging the trademark database of passive marks without having to rely on third-party lawsuits. This legal reform is in line with the legal development theory to encourage business actors to actively utilize the economic functions of trademarks.

Catholic marriage in Indonesia occupies a unique legal position because it is governed simultaneously by state law and canon law. Indonesian positive law recognizes marriage based on religious law and regulates its civil consequences, including divorce. However, Catholic canon law does not recognize divorce as the dissolution a valid and sacramental marriage. This dual legal framework has led widespread misunderstandings among Catholic faithful and legal practitioners, particularly regarding the legal consequences of civil divorce. This study aims to analyze the legal status of Catholic marriage within Indonesia’s dual legal system and examine the juridical implications of civil divorce Catholic marital status under canon law. This research employs normative legal research using statutory, conceptual, and comparative normative approaches. The findings demonstrate that civil divorce functions solely as the termination of civil legal relations under state law and does not dissolve the marital bond according to canon law. The study further reveals that prevailing misconceptions stem from reductive understanding Catholic marriage merely an administrative legal event. This article contributes to legal scholarship by clarifying the normative boundaries between state law and canon law and emphasizes the need for comprehensive legal understanding to prevent recurring juridical misunderstandings in Catholic marriage practices in Indonesia.

Wewewa Timur District is an administrative area in Southwest Sumba Regency that has great potential to improve the quality of public services. However, in practice, services at the sub-district level are still faced with various obstacles, such as slow administrative processes, manual data recording, and lack of coordination between service departments. This makes it difficult for government officials to cause problems and has a direct impact on public satisfaction as service recipients. As a solution, the development of a Web-Based Integrated Service Information System is the right step to address community needs and support government performance in Wewewa Timur District. Through this system, the public can access various services on a single digital platform without having to come directly to the sub-district office, and helps officials in accelerating administrative processes. This study uses a software engineering approach to design and implement a Web-Based Integrated Service Information System in Wewewa Timur District. The method used is the Waterfall method, which is a classic method in software engineering with sequential and systematic stages, from needs analysis to system maintenance. Test results using the black box method showed that the software could identify malfunctioning functions, interface errors, data structure errors, and access to external databases, while also producing expected output. Therefore, this system is considered effective in improving the quality of public services in Wewewa Timur District.

History education at the secondary level continues to face challenges in fostering higher order thinking skills, particularly students’ interpretative and critical analytical abilities, which are often constrained by textual and chronological instructional approaches. This study aims to conceptually examine the role of digital storytelling as a pedagogical strategy to strengthen historical interpretation and critical analysis within the frameworks of constructivism, historical thinking, and critical thinking theory. The research employs a qualitative approach based on literature review, utilizing descriptive and thematic analysis of scholarly works and educational policy documents. The findings indicate that digital storytelling promotes active cognitive engagement through processes of source selection, credibility evaluation, evidence based narrative construction, and multiperspective reflection. The production of digital narratives functions not merely as a creative activity but as a cognitive mechanism that trains logical argumentation and validation of historical evidence. Furthermore, the integration of multimedia elements enhances contextual understanding and deepens students’ meaning making of historical events. Nevertheless, its implementation encounters challenges related to teachers’ digital competence, students’ digital literacy readiness, infrastructural limitations, and instructional time allocation. The study implies that digital storytelling holds strategic potential as a pedagogical approach to develop historical thinking competencies in the digital era, provided that it is supported by systematic instructional planning and sustained capacity building in educational institutions.

Resilience and business sustainability in the era of global competition are no longer determined solely by product excellence or cost efficiency, but highly depend on the quality of relationships built by companies with all stakeholders. Many business organizations grow rapidly yet experience sudden collapse due to failure to maintain integrity and comply with ethical norms in their operations. This study aims to formulate business ethics implementation strategies as a fundamental foundation in strengthening long-term business sustainability. Through a descriptive qualitative approach based on literature study, the results show that applying moral values such as honesty, fairness, and social responsibility functions as an instrument to create trust, stability, and superior reputation. Ethical strategies integrated into management systems are proven effective in minimizing conflict risks, expanding cooperation access, and building competitive advantages that are difficult to replicate. It is concluded that business ethics is not merely a normative obligation, but a strategic investment that determines business survival and sustainable growth.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of management functions of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) in increasing Village Original Revenue (PADes) in Saneo Village, Woja District, Dompu Regency. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed using interviews, observations, and documentation as data collection techniques. The informants consisted of village government officials, BUMDes managers, and community members. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that management functions, namely planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling, have been implemented in BUMDes management, although not yet optimally. Supporting factors include village government support, initial capital availability, management commitment, and community participation. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include limited human resources, weak supervision systems, dependence on village funds, and limited market access. BUMDes has contributed to Village Original Revenue and supported village fiscal independence, although its contribution remains relatively limited. Therefore, strengthening managerial capacity, improving management quality, and developing more innovative business units are necessary to enhance the sustainable contribution of BUMDes to Village Original Revenue.
