This study aims to analyze the influence of product quality and service quality on repurchase intention through customer satisfaction at Famicafe Surabaya. The background of this research is driven by the rapid growth of the retail cafe industry in Surabaya and a recorded 23.8% decline in total transaction volume at Famicafe during the final quarter of 2025. This study employs a quantitative approach involving 100 respondents selected via purposive sampling, and data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results indicate that product quality does not have a significant direct effect on repurchase intention. However, service quality and customer satisfaction were found to have a positive and significant influence on repurchase intention. Furthermore, product quality and service quality significantly influence customer satisfaction. Crucially, customer satisfaction acts as a full mediator linking product quality to repurchase intention and as an essential mediator in the relationship between service quality and repurchase intention. These findings confirm that to foster loyalty and boost repurchase intention at Famicafe Surabaya, product and service excellence must be effectively translated into actual customer satisfaction.

This study aims to analyze the influence of product knowledge, corporate image, relationship marketing, and trust on customers’ savings decisions at Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) KCP Jakarta Duri Kosambi, as well as examine the moderating effect of word of mouth in the relationship between these variables. The background of this research is based on the relatively low number of customers at BSI KCP Jakarta Duri Kosambi, which only reached 515 customers by the end of 2023, despite the large Muslim population in Cengkareng District, which represents a significant potential market for Islamic banking services. This study employs a quantitative research method using a questionnaire distributed to 100 customers selected through accidental sampling techniques. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) with the assistance of SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results indicate that product knowledge, corporate image, relationship marketing, and trust each have a significant positive effect on savings decisions, as reflected in their respective path coefficients and t-statistics. Furthermore, word of mouth is found to significantly moderate only the relationship between relationship marketing and savings decisions, while its moderating effect on product knowledge, corporate image, and trust is not significant. These findings suggest that BSI KCP Jakarta Duri Kosambi should strengthen marketing strategies focusing on customer knowledge, institutional image, relationship quality, and trust to enhance customers’ savings decisions.  

This study aims to analyze the effect of financial statement quality and internal control systems on the tax compliance of salted egg MSMEs in Brebes Regency, with business performance as a mediating variable. The research employed a quantitative approach using primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to 150 respondents selected through purposive sampling techniques. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results indicate that the quality of financial statements has a positive and significant effect on business performance, but a negative and significant effect on MSME tax compliance. Meanwhile, the internal control system does not significantly affect business performance, but has a positive and significant effect on tax compliance. Business performance is also proven to have a positive and significant effect on tax compliance and is able to mediate the effect of financial statement quality. These findings provide an important contribution by showing that high-quality financial statements support business operational management; however, tax assistance and guidance are still needed so that these reports can effectively improve tax compliance.

The study aims to analyze the influence of consumption behavior, projected through cultural, social, personal, and psychological factors, through Generation Z's decision to use the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS).

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis proses formulasi kebijakan smart city di Kota Magelang pada periode 2017-2019. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara mendalam, diskusi kelompok terarah (FGD) dan studi dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa proses formulasi kebijakan Smart City di Kota Magelang berlangsung melalui empat tahapan utama, yaitu perumusan masalah, penyusunan agenda kebijakan, perumusan alternatif kebijakan dan penetapan kebijakan. Temuan penelitian juga mengungkapkan peran dominan Badan Perencanaan Pembangunan Daerah (Bappeda) sebagai aktor utama dalam proses formulasi, sementara keterlibatan aktor non negara dan partisipasi publik relatif terbatas. Secara teoritis, penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi terhadap studi kebijakan publik dan smart city dengan menunjukkan bahwa implementasi konsep smart city di tingkat lokal cenderung masih bersifat state centric, dimana proses formulasi kebijakan lebih didominasi oleh aktor pemerintah dibandingkan dengan mekanisme kolaboratif yang melibatkan pemangku kepentingan non negara. Temuan ini memperkaya diskursus mengenai tata kelola smart city dengan menegaskan adanya kesenjangan antara idealitas smart city sebagai pendekatan kolaboratif dan praktik formulasi kebijakan masih hierarkis. Dengan demikian, penelitian ini tidak hanya berkontribusi pada pemahaman empiris mengenai smart city di Kota Magelang, namun juga memberikan implikasi konseptual bagi pengembangan model formulasi kebijakan smart city yang lebih partisipatif dan inklusif.

This study aims to reconstruct a Greek Exegesis learning model based on formative hermeneutics by integrating syntactic analysis with the spiritual transformation of theology students. Traditional Greek instruction often emphasizes technical grammar and textual translation, thereby creating a gap between academic rigor, interpretive sensitivity, and spiritual formation. To address this issue, the present research develops and evaluates an instructional model that positions grammatical inquiry not merely as a linguistic exercise, but as a formative process for understanding Scripture responsibly. This research employs a quantitative descriptive-correlational design involving 30 theology students as participants. Data were collected through syntactic analysis tests and Likert-scale instruments measuring hermeneutical awareness and spiritual disposition. The results show that the implementation of the formative hermeneutical model achieved a high effectiveness level of 81.7%. Students’ syntactic competence reached 78%, which falls into the good category, while spiritual transformation attained 84.8%, categorized as very good. These findings indicate that the model significantly improves both analytical competence and spiritual development. This study proposes an integrative pedagogical framework in which syntactic analysis functions as a formative hermeneutical practice that shapes theological virtues, interpretive responsibility, faith maturity, and holistic ministerial readiness among theology students within diverse contemporary theological education contexts and ministries.

Indonesia merupakan produsen padi terbesar di kawasan ASEAN dengan produksi mencapai 60,3 juta ton pada tahun 2025. Meskipun demikian, tingginya produksi tersebut belum mampu meningkatkan ekspor beras secara signifikan dan Indonesia masih menghadapi tantangan dalam memenuhi kebutuhan pangan secara berkelanjutan. Kondisi ini menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan output pertanian belum tentu mencerminkan efektivitas penggunaan faktor-faktor produksi yang mendukungnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh luas lahan sawah, jumlah petani, dan penyaluran pupuk bersubsidi terhadap produksi padi di Indonesia menggunakan pendekatan fungsi produksi Cobb-Douglas. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan data cross section pada 10 provinsi penghasil padi terbesar di Indonesia tahun 2025. Analisis dilakukan menggunakan regresi linier berganda setelah model memenuhi pengujian asumsi klasik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa luas lahan sawah berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap produksi padi dengan elastisitas sebesar 1,038743. Sebaliknya, jumlah petani berpengaruh negatif dan tidak signifikan, sedangkan penyaluran pupuk bersubsidi berpengaruh positif namun tidak signifikan. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa peningkatan produksi padi lebih dipengaruhi oleh ketersediaan dan pemanfaatan lahan yang produktif dibandingkan penambahan tenaga kerja maupun subsidi input pertanian. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa peningkatan produksi padi memerlukan kebijakan yang berfokus pada efisiensi penggunaan sumber daya, perlindungan lahan pertanian produktif, serta penerapan teknologi pertanian yang mampu meningkatkan produktivitas secara berkelanjutan.

Perkembangan teknologi digital telah merevolusi mekanisme transaksi ekonomi dengan mendorong penggunaan kontrak elektronik sebagai instrumen utama dalam aktivitas e-commerce. Kajian ini menyoroti dominasi klausula baku yang disusun sepihak oleh pelaku usaha, yang mengakibatkan ketimpangan posisi tawar serta berpotensi menimbulkan kerugian sistemik bagi konsumen. Secara empiris, rendahnya literasi hukum masyarakat, kompleksitas bahasa kontrak, serta mekanisme persetujuan instan memperkuat kondisi kerentanan konsumen dalam memahami hak dan kewajibannya. Meskipun kerangka regulasi nasional seperti UUPK dan UU ITE telah memberikan dasar perlindungan, implementasinya masih menghadapi hambatan serius, termasuk lemahnya pengawasan, kesenjangan antara norma dan praktik, serta tantangan yurisdiksi lintas negara dalam transaksi digital. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan normatif-empiris untuk menganalisis efektivitas perlindungan hukum serta mengidentifikasi faktor penyebab ketidakseimbangan dalam kontrak elektronik. Hasil kajian menunjukkan perlunya rekonstruksi model perlindungan konsumen berbasis keadilan kontraktual yang menekankan transparansi, keseimbangan, dan akuntabilitas dalam penyusunan klausula. Selain itu, integrasi aspek teknologi, desain sistem digital, dan peningkatan literasi konsumen menjadi elemen krusial dalam menciptakan ekosistem transaksi yang adil. Dengan demikian, penelitian ini berkontribusi dalam pengembangan teori hukum digital sekaligus memberikan rekomendasi praktis bagi pembentukan regulasi adaptif guna memperkuat kepercayaan publik terhadap ekonomi digital.

Environmental-based diseases remain a major public health issue associated with unsafe drinking water, inadequate sanitation, poor hygiene behavior, improper household waste management, and unsafe domestic wastewater disposal. Community-Based Total Sanitation, known in Indonesia as Sanitasi Total Berbasis Masyarakat or STBM, is a community empowerment approach designed to change hygiene and sanitation behavior through five pillars. This article aims to develop an STBM program planning design and an impact evaluation model for reducing environmental-based diseases, particularly diarrhoeal disease. This study used a narrative review method by analyzing national regulations, official guidelines, global WASH reports, and recent scientific literature. The proposed program design includes situation analysis, multisectoral advocacy, community triggering, household mentoring, strengthening sanitation facilities, monitoring, verification, and impact evaluation. The evaluation model uses process, output, outcome, and impact indicators, with diarrhoea incidence as the main measurable health indicator. The findings indicate that an integrated STBM program supported by community participation, valid baseline data, and periodic evaluation can strengthen the prevention of environmental-based diseases. This article recommends implementing STBM as a sustainable community-based public health intervention rather than a short-term sanitation activity.

This study aims to analyze the role of parents in fostering adolescents' moral development and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in this process in Karya Jaya Village, Buton Regency. This research is motivated by the importance of adolescence as a critical developmental stage that is highly vulnerable to environmental influences, thus requiring optimal moral guidance, especially from the family as the first and primary educational institution. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach. The research subjects consist of 30 parents and adolescents selected through purposive sampling. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation to obtain in-depth and comprehensive data. The data analysis technique uses the Miles and Huberman model, which consists of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results show that parents play a significant role in moral development through role modeling, habituation of moral and religious values, effective communication, and supervision of adolescents' behavior in daily life. Parental role modeling is a key factor in shaping adolescents’ moral behavior, as adolescents tend to imitate what they observe within the family environment. Supporting factors include harmonious family conditions, active parental involvement, and a positive social environment. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include parents' busyness, lack of supervision, and the influence of technology and peer environment. Therefore, the role of parents is crucial in shaping positive moral behavior among adolescents.

This study aims to analyze the effect of cutting parameters on surface roughness in the turning process of AISI 1045 steel. The investigated parameters include cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut. A quantitative approach was employed using multiple linear regression analysis with SPSS software. The dataset consisted of 30 simulated experimental observations with varying cutting parameter conditions. Prior to regression analysis, classical assumption tests including normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity tests were conducted to ensure the validity of the model. The results indicated that all assumptions were satisfied. The findings reveal that simultaneously, all independent variables have a significant effect on surface roughness with a coefficient of determination of 82.1%. Partially, Feed rate and cutting speed significantly influence surface roughness, while depth of cut does not show a significant effect. Feed rate is identified as the most dominant variable affecting surface roughness, where an increase in Feed rate leads to higher roughness values. In contrast, increasing cutting speed tends to reduce surface roughness. This study highlights the importance of controlling cutting parameters, particularly Feed rate and cutting speed, to improve machining quality. The results provide practical implications for manufacturing industries in optimizing machining parameters to achieve better surface quality and process efficiency.

This study investigates the development of Indonesian language literacy among third-grade elementary school students. The primary problems identified were acute classroom passivity and low reading comprehension, evidenced by an initial learning mastery of only 45.16%, which were largely driven by conventional teacher-centered pedagogy. The objective of this research is to enhance early-grade reading literacy and active participation through an innovative instructional intervention. The proposed method employed a two-cycle Classroom Action Research (CAR) design at SDN Jrebeng Kulon 1, integrating the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by serial picture media. This approach utilizes chronological visual scaffolding to facilitate narrative comprehension for students in the concrete operational stage. The results demonstrated a highly significant academic progression: classical learning mastery increased to 70.97% (mean score: 80.80) in Cycle I and culminated in an absolute 100% mastery rate (mean score: 94.51) by the end of Cycle II. The synthesis of these findings reveals that transitioning from static visual aids to serial visual stimuli within a problem-oriented framework effectively mitigates cognitive dissonance and eradicates classroom passivity. In conclusion, the integration of the PBL model with serial picture media serves as a comprehensive pedagogical solution that not only maximizes cognitive reading comprehension but also reconstructs students' verbal articulation and social-collaborative skills, offering a highly scalable strategy for early primary education.

Concrete volume calculation is a crucial factor in preventing cost overruns when preparing the Budget Plan (RAB) for construction projects. In arch bridge projects, the complex structural geometry often makes conventional volume calculation methods complicated and prone to errors, particularly due to the geometric complexity of the arch beams. This study aims to analyze the comparison of concrete volume calculation results between the conventional method and the Building Information Modeling (BIM) method using Autodesk Revit in terms of cost-effectiveness. The case study was conducted on the Short Span II Pulau Balang Bridge Duplication Project in the Nusantara Capital City (IKN), Penajam Paser Utara Regency, East Kalimantan. The research objects include substructures (bore piles, pile caps, abutments, piers, and wing walls) and superstructures in the form of arch beams. The research method employs a quantitative approach by calculating concrete volumes conventionally using AutoCAD and Microsoft Excel, as well as calculating with BIM Autodesk Revit through three-dimensional modeling and Quantity Take-Off (QTO) exports. The results indicate that the BIM Autodesk Revit method generates a larger concrete volume compared to the conventional method, resulting in a higher total cost based on the BIM volume. The total cost for the conventional method amounted to IDR 142,613,245,996.12, while the BIM Autodesk Revit method amounted to IDR 143,127,208,186.60. These differences are influenced by the level of calculation detail, the simplification of shapes in the conventional method, and the precision of modeling in Autodesk Revit.

Notaris sebagai pejabat umum pemegang kewenangan atributif negara dalam pembuatan akta otentik menghadapi kerentanan hukum serius akibat penggunaan dokumen palsu oleh penghadap beriktikad buruk. Asas kepercayaan (vertrouwen) menempatkan notaris pada posisi paradoks: wajib melayani masyarakat, namun berisiko dikriminalisasi atas kejahatan pihak yang dilayaninya. Penelitian ini mengkaji tiga permasalahan: pengaturan hukum tanggung jawab notaris atas akta berbasis dokumen palsu, ketidakmemadaian regulasi dalam melindungi notaris, serta model perlindungan hukum ideal bagi notaris menghadapi pemalsuan dokumen penghadap. Penelitian menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan kasus, berbasis data sekunder yang dianalisis melalui content analysis dan divalidasi melalui triangulasi sumber. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: Pertama, UUJN dan KUHPerdata membatasi tanggung jawab notaris pada kebenaran formal dan prosedural pembuatan akta, sedangkan kebenaran materiil dokumen merupakan tanggung jawab mutlak penghadap. Kedua, regulasi berlaku belum memadai karena UUJN tidak memuat klausul good faith immunity, mekanisme shifting of liability belum diatur secara rigid, kewenangan Majelis Kehormatan Notaris terbatas pada fungsi administratif tanpa daya ikat terhadap proses penyidikan, serta ketiadaan sistem verifikasi identitas digital terintegrasi. Ketiga, model perlindungan ideal adalah model tiga lapis: lapis preventif melalui verifikasi identitas digital real-time terintegrasi dengan Dukcapil dan BPN; lapis normatif melalui amandemen UUJN yang memuat klausul imunitas iktikad baik dan pengalihan tanggung jawab material kepada penghadap manipulatif; serta lapis represif melalui penetapan izin MKN sebagai syarat mutlak penetapan tersangka dan jaminan rehabilitasi bagi notaris yang dikriminalisasi secara tidak sah.

This study examines contextual discipleship as a strategic approach to Christian education in a multicultural society. It employs a convergent mixed-methods design to obtain a comprehensive understanding of how discipleship contributes to students’ spiritual growth and character formation. Quantitative data were gathered through structured questionnaires, while qualitative data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with relevant participants. The findings show that contextual discipleship significantly strengthens students’ understanding of faith, promotes tolerance and respect for diversity, encourages social engagement, and helps students respond wisely to challenges arising from technological development and digital culture. Contextual discipleship becomes effective when it is implemented consistently, supported by relational mentoring, and grounded in the translation of Gospel values into the learners’ real-life social context. The study concludes that contextual discipleship is a strategic and transformative model for developing holistic Christian education that is spiritually formative, socially responsive, and relevant to multicultural realities. Therefore, this approach can strengthen Christian educational practice and equip learners to live faithfully, responsibly, and constructively within diverse contemporary communities amid ongoing social, cultural, and increasingly digital transformation today.

Bankruptcy can no longer be understood solely as a mechanism for liquidating assets to meet debtor obligations, but has evolved into a restructuring instrument that directly impacts corporate governance and stakeholder protection. This study aims to analyze how bankruptcy functions as a corporate restructuring mechanism, how this process influences the redistribution of power in corporate governance, and the extent to which the bankruptcy legal system provides balanced protection for various stakeholders. The research method used is normative legal research with a statutory, conceptual, and limited comparative approach. The analysis is conducted on the provisions of Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and PKPU (Investment Suspension) and regulations related to corporate governance, combined with theoretical studies on fiduciary duty, stakeholder theory, and the corporate rescue paradigm. The results illustrate that bankruptcy functions as a governance restructuring mechanism that transfers control from the board of directors to the curator and creditor forum, thereby creating a redistribution of power within the company. The dominant creditor primacy orientation has the potential to create an imbalance in protection for non-creditor stakeholders, including workers and other economically impacted parties. These conditions indicate the need for normative reconstruction, including redefining fiduciary obligations during the insolvency phase, strengthening stakeholder protection, and harmonizing corporate governance principles with the insolvency law regime. This research is expected to contribute academically to the development of a bankruptcy model that is not solely focused on debt resolution but also considers aspects of business sustainability and substantive justice in modern corporate governance.

The rapid growth of the digital era has significantly influenced Christian Religious Education (CRE), requiring curriculum transformation that integrates Christian household values into academic learning. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with an exploratory case study design to analyze the integration of family-based Christian values, such as love, open communication, and spiritual discipline, into the CRE curriculum. The findings reveal that this integration effectively nurtures Christlike character in students across cognitive, affective, and spiritual dimensions. In addition, technology-enhanced learning becomes more meaningful when it is rooted in household values that shape daily faith practices and relational responsibility. The study also indicates that the family context provides an important foundation for strengthening moral awareness, spiritual maturity, and responsible digital engagement among students. This research concludes that integrative curriculum models can develop educators who are not only theologically competent but also Christlike, adaptive, and responsive to digital challenges. Therefore, integrating Christian household values into CRE curriculum design is essential for strengthening holistic faith formation in higher education and preparing future educators to serve faithfully in contemporary digital contexts.
