Coordinating conjunctions are conjunctions that function to connect two language units that have the same or equal status, while subordinating conjunctions are conjunctions that connect two language units that do not have the same or equal status. News text is a text that contains information about factual and actual events that are still hotly discussed by the public. This study aims to analyze the use of coordinating and subordinating conjunctions in news articles published by Kompas in September 2025. The method used in this research is a descriptive qualitative method, with observation and note taking techniques applied to analyze conjunctions based on their types and functions. The results show that coordinating conjunctions such as (and, or, but, however) and subordinating conjunctions such as (because, so that, after, until, if) are used to construct coherent, logical, and easily understood sentences. The appropriate use of conjunctions supports the effective delivery of information and enhances the reader's comprehension of the news content. This research is expected to serve as a reference for readers or future researchers who wish to examine linguistic phenomena in online news texts using a similar approach.

The language used in online news is not only a tool for conveying information but also shapes perspectives that influence readers. One key element in this aspect is phrases. Phrases always appear in various types of text. A phrase is a grammatical unit consisting of two or more words that does not exceed the functional limit and fulfills one of the syntactic functions. Phrases are often found in a text within a sentence, one of which is on the online news page cnnindonesia.com. The type of phrase found in the news page is a verb phrase that functions to form a predicate, link ideas, and better explain the author's intent. The cnnindonesia.com page about Affan Kurniawan published in August 2025 was chosen because it shows a variety of verb phrases that are interesting to study. This study aims to describe the form of verb phrases found in the cnnindonesia.com news about Affan Kurniawan published in August 2025. This research can provide a clearer picture of verb phrases in journalistic texts. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method. The results of this study describe verb phrases and their syntactic functions in a cnnindonesia.com news story about Affan Kurniawan published in August 2025. This research is useful theoretically and practically. Theoretically, this study enriches the syntactic study of verb phrases and their application in media texts. Practically, the results can serve as a reference for students, researchers, and journalists in using Indonesian effectively and according to the rules.

This study aims to describe the internal structure and syntactic functions of noun phrases in online news articles about demonstration actions published by Detik.com in August 2025.

The rapid development of digital technology has led to an increased adoption of digital payment methods in online transaction-based businesses. However, in practice, failures and limitations in the implementation of digital payment systems still occur, potentially disrupting transaction processes and reducing customer convenience. Payment related obstacles may result in transaction cancellations and increase the risk of customer churn. This study aims to analyze the impact of failures and limitations in digital payment methods on customer churn using a classification-based approach. The data used in this research are secondary e-commerce customer data obtained from the Kaggle platform, including transaction information, payment methods, customer behavior, and historical transaction records. The research methodology consists of data preprocessing, time-based feature engineering, and classification modeling using logistic regression, decision tree, and random forest algorithms. Model performance is evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and confusion matrix metrics. The results indicate that the decision tree model demonstrates superior capability in identifying churn customers compared to the other models, although it does not always achieve the highest accuracy. In addition to digital payment methods, other factors such as purchase value, transaction frequency, purchase timing patterns, and product return rates also influence customer churn. The findings highlight the importance of optimizing digital payment systems as part of customer experience enhancement strategies and customer retention efforts in online transaction–based businesses.

In today's digital era, social media has become an integral part of everyday life, especially for younger generations such as students. Platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and Facebook facilitate fast and interactive communication, but often encourage the use of informal language such as abbreviations or emojis. This contrasts with the demands of the academic world. This study aims to analyze the influence of social media use on students' language styles in the academic world. The research method used was quantitative, namely observation. Observations were conducted to determine students' communication patterns on digital platforms (such as class WhatsApp group chats and comments on social media). The results showed a strong tendency to use slang, non-standard abbreviations, and code-mixing, carried over from social media habits into formal academic contexts. This phenomenon has contributed to the erosion of the boundaries between informal and formal language styles among students. This study concludes the need to strengthen formal language literacy to maintain professional communication in the academic world.

The rapid growth of e-commerce has intensified competition among digital businesses, making pricing and discount strategies critical in influencing consumer purchase decisions. This study aims to examine the effect of original product price and price after discount on consumer purchase decisions on e-commerce platforms. A quantitative causal research design was employed using secondary data derived from publicly available e-commerce transaction records. Data analysis was conducted through descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression to assess the partial and simultaneous effects of pricing variables on purchase decisions, which were measured using a price-based purchase decision index. The findings indicate that both original price and discounted price have a significant negative effect on consumer purchase decisions. This suggests that lower displayed and final prices increase consumers’ likelihood of making a purchase. Furthermore, the discounted price was found to exert a more dominant influence than the original price, highlighting the importance of perceived value in online purchasing behavior. This study contributes to the digital marketing literature by providing empirical evidence on pricing effects in e-commerce and offers practical insights for e-commerce platforms in designing effective and data-driven pricing and discount strategies.

The phenomenon of Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) is increasingly experienced by university students along with the rising use of TikTok as a source of entertainment and information. The fast and constantly changing flow of content often makes users feel the need to always keep up with developments so as not to be left behind. In this condition, self-regulation is viewed as an important ability that can help reduce the tendency for FoMO to emerge. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-regulation and FoMO among university students who use TikTok. A total of 206 students participated by completing an online questionnaire that used the Short Self-Regulation Questionnaire (SSRQ) and the Fear of Missing Out Scale (FoMOS). The normality test showed that both variables were not normally distributed; therefore, the analysis was continued using Spearman correlation. The results showed a significant negative relationship between self-regulation and FoMO (r = –0.370; p = 0.000). These findings indicate that the better the students’ ability to regulate themselves, the lower their tendency to experience FoMO when using TikTok. Overall, this study emphasizes that self-regulation has an important role in helping students deal with the dynamics of social media use and can serve as a basis for developing strategies to encourage more balanced social media use.

Online gambling has emerged as a growing public health and social concern, particularly in developing countries with rapid digitalization such as Indonesia. Increased internet accessibility, mobile device usage, and financial technology services have facilitated the widespread adoption of online gambling across diverse age groups, including adolescents. This study aims to investigate the phenomenon of online gambling and identify key determinants contributing to addictive gambling behavior. The method used is a narrative literature review, synthesizing findings from national and international studies related to online gambling, behavioral addiction, psychological mechanisms, and socio-environmental factors. The findings indicate that online gambling addiction is influenced by multiple interrelated determinants, including economic pressure, cognitive distortions such as illusion of control, low legal awareness, environmental exposure, and technological features embedded in gambling platforms. Neurobiologically, repetitive gambling behavior is reinforced by dysregulation of the brain’s reward system, particularly dopamine pathways, which strengthens compulsive engagement despite adverse consequences. Psychosocial impacts include increased risk of anxiety, depression, financial instability, social isolation, and criminal behavior. The study also highlights that adolescents are particularly vulnerable due to developmental factors and peer influence. The implications of these findings emphasize the need for comprehensive prevention strategies involving stricter legal enforcement, public education, mental health interventions, family support, and technological regulation. A multidisciplinary and public health–oriented approach is essential to reduce the prevalence of online gambling addiction and mitigate its long-term psychological, social, and economic consequences.

Health behaviors among youth have undergone a significant transformation, shifting from nightlife culture and alcohol consumption toward healthy lifestyles such as community sports (running and padel). This phenomenon, known as the sober curious movement, is triggered by massive interactions in digital spaces. This study aims to analyze the role of social media as a catalyst in the transformation of the sober curious lifestyle and the increased participation of youth in healthy living through a literature review. This research employs a narrative literature review method. Literature searches were conducted through the Consensus database, Google Scholar, and Garuda, covering the period from 2021 to 2026. Data analysis was performed thematically on articles relevant to the digital health behavior of young adults. Findings indicate that social media acts as a primary catalyst through social norm engineering, whereby health is now viewed as a prestigious social status symbol. Digital platforms provide a space for the younger generation to normalise alcohol-free lifestyles, so that they are no longer considered unusual by their peers. The synergy between educational content and online communities accelerates the continuous internalisation of preventive values. Social media effectively shifts the health paradigm of the younger generation from a mere medical obligation to an aspirational digital identity. Public health practitioners need to optimize this digital potential as a proactive health promotion instrument to foster a fitter society in the future.
