Digital transformation of government through the implementation of e-government has become a strategic agenda in bureaucratic reform in Indonesia. Local governments play a crucial role as a bridge between national policies and village governance practices. This article analyzes the implementation of e-government by the Batang Regency Government in support of village governance. This research uses a qualitative approach and a policy analysis method, based on literature reviews and official documents, including regional regulations, SPBE policies, and relevant institutional reports. The analysis was conducted using a theoretical framework of public policy implementation and the principles of good governance. The analysis results indicate that the Batang Regency Government has a relatively adequate e-government regulatory and institutional framework, but its implementation at the village level still faces challenges, including gaps in apparatus capacity, variations in village digital readiness, and suboptimal cross-organizational coordination. This article concludes that strengthening the role of local governments as facilitators, coaches, and coordinators of digital policies is key to the successful implementation of village e-government. These findings provide theoretical contributions to e-government studies and policy implementation, as well as practical implications for formulating local government digital policies.

This study aims to analyze the readiness of the digital bureaucracy in transforming public services in Sorong City, focusing on the capacity and digital literacy of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN). The research uses a mixed-methods approach with a sequential explanatory design, in which quantitative data are collected through questionnaires and analyzed descriptively and correlatively, and then deepened with qualitative data through in-depth interviews. The study's results show that the Sorong City Government's digital bureaucracy is in the early stages of implementation and has not been optimal. ASN capacity and ASN digital literacy are positively related to the readiness of the digital bureaucracy, but they remain at a sufficient, fundamental level. The transformation of digital public services has increased the efficiency of certain services. However, this improvement has not been evenly distributed due to limited human resources, system integration challenges, and a bureaucratic work culture. The study's implications emphasize the importance of strengthening civil servants' capacity and digital literacy as a prerequisite for the successful transformation of digital public services. The limitation of this study is in use of correlation analysis, which does not explain causal relationships. Further research is recommended to use a more comprehensive analytical approach and expand the scope of the research area.

Employee performance is an important factor in supporting the success of public services, especially in government agencies that deal directly with the public. Efforts to improve employee performance need to be supported by the implementation of good work discipline and the implementation of job training that is appropriate to employee needs. This study aims to analyze the effect of work discipline and job training on employee performance at the Regional Tax Collection Service Unit (UPPPD) of West Jakarta. This study uses a quantitative method, data collection techniques are carried out by distributing questionnaires to employees with a population of 78 respondents. Sampling uses a total sampling technique. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS version 26 through multiple linear regression tests, t-tests, F-tests, and coefficient of determination (R²) tests. The results of the study indicate that work discipline has a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a significance value of 0.000 <0.05 and a calculated t-value of 11.577. Job training also has a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a significance value of 0.000 <0.05 and a calculated t-value of 11.368. Simultaneously, work discipline and job training significantly influence employee performance, with a calculated F-value of 132.931 and a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. The coefficient of determination indicates that these two variables explain 78.0% of the variation in employee performance (R² = 0.780), while the remaining 22.0% is influenced by other variables outside this study.

The assessment of a company's value is crucial for investors to identify its prospects and performance. Financial ratios such as the Current Ratio (CR) and Return on Assets (ROA) are used to analyze factors affecting the company's value. This study aims to analyze the impact of CR and ROA on company value in manufacturing companies within the Miscellaneous Industries sub-sector for the period 2015–2024. The study uses a quantitative approach with data from annual financial reports of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Data analysis is conducted using panel data regression with the Random Effect Model (REM) as the best model. The dependent variable is company value, measured by Price to Book Value (PBV), while the independent variables consist of CR and ROA. The results show that CR does not have a significant effect on company value, while ROA significantly affects company value. Simultaneously, CR and ROA are proven to significantly affect company value, indicating that the combination of liquidity and profitability plays an important role in explaining PBV variations. This finding suggests that investors pay more attention to profitability than liquidity in the Miscellaneous Industries sector.

Patient-Centered Care (PCC) is a healthcare approach that places the patient at the center of every interaction and clinical decision-making. However, a preliminary study at Tarumajaya Hospital showed that 58% of healthcare workers had not yet optimally implemented the PCC approach. This study aimed to analyze the influence of self-efficacy and social support on the implementation of Patient-Centered Care, with safety culture as a mediating variable, at Tarumajaya Hospital. The research method used was quantitative analytic with a cross-sectional design. The study sample used a saturated sampling technique of 132 healthcare workers, consisting of doctors, nurses, and medical support staff. Data analysis used Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results showed that self-efficacy and social support had a positive and significant effect on safety culture and PCC implementation. Safety culture also had a positive and significant effect on PCC implementation. Furthermore, safety culture was shown to mediate the influence of self-efficacy and social support on PCC implementation. The coefficient of determination value indicates that the model has strong ability to explain variations in PCC.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between public policy paradoxes, healthcare service quality, access to and continuity of postnatal care, and maternal mortality in Pekalongan Regency. A mixed-methods approach with a sequential explanatory design was employed, involving 30 respondents for quantitative analysis using Spearman correlation tests and 5 key informants for in-depth interviews. The results indicate that policy paradoxes are strongly correlated with service quality and with access and continuity of care. Service quality also shows a robust correlation with access and continuity. All variables are significantly associated with maternal mortality, with access and continuity of care demonstrating the strongest correlation. Qualitative findings reveal implementation gaps in Ministry of Health Regulation No. 21 of 2021, where postnatal visits are often conducted only 2–3 times instead of the mandated four visits, with 10 out of 13 maternal deaths occurring during the postnatal period. The persistence of maternal mortality is attributed to inconsistent implementation of standard operating procedures, high workload, and socio-cultural factors. The study highlights the need to strengthen supervision, enhance human resource capacity, and promote cross-sectoral collaboration to optimize postnatal care services.

The rapid spread of hoaxes and disinformation in the digital era poses serious challenges to social cohesion, societal stability, and the internalization of moral values, particularly within Muslim communities. The circulation of unverified information has the potential to trigger conflict, polarization, and a decline in public trust. This study aims to explore digital literacy as an ethical and religious instrument in actualizing the Islamic principle of amar ma’ruf nahi munkar in the contemporary digital sphere. Employing a qualitative library research approach, the study examines classical Islamic sources, including the Qur’an and Hadith, alongside contemporary literature on digital communication ethics and digital citizenship. The findings indicate that digital literacy from an Islamic perspective extends beyond technical competence in accessing and disseminating information; it represents a form of moral responsibility (amanah) grounded in honesty (ash-shidq), prudence, and accountability. Practices such as information verification (tabayyun), clarification, and corrective engagement in online spaces are concrete expressions of amar ma’ruf nahi munkar. Strengthening ethically grounded digital literacy is therefore essential for fostering a healthy, just, and civilized digital public sphere.  

Hospital nutrition services are an integral component of improving the quality of patient health. This descriptive observational study aims to evaluate the achievement of Minimum Service Standards (MSS) for nutrition at RSUD Dr. H. Slamet Martodirdjo Pamekasan, specifically focusing on the accuracy of diet types, timeliness of food distribution, and patient food waste. Data were collected over a single menu cycle (10 days) from November 24 to December 4, 2025, involving 44 patients per day. Research instruments included observation sheets and the Comstock visual method, with data analyzed based on the Decree of the Minister of Health (Kepmenkes) No. 129 of 2008. The results indicated that the timeliness of food distribution reached 96% and the accuracy of diet types reached 100%, both of which met the MSS requirements (≥ 90% and 100%, respectively). However, the average patient food waste was 25%, which does not yet meet the maximum standard of ≤ 20%. In conclusion, while logistical aspects have fulfilled the established standards, the hospital needs to conduct further evaluations regarding food flavor factors and patients' clinical conditions to reduce food waste in accordance with the applicable standards.

This study comprehensively analyzes the impact of sectarian conflict on mental health in Kirkuk through an ethnoreligious meta-analysis of 42 studies with a total of N=15,427 participants published between 2003 and 2023. The quantitative synthesis indicates a PTSD prevalence of 47.3% (95% CI: 44.2–50.4) among victims of sectarian conflict, with an uneven distribution across groups, where the Turkmen minority records the highest prevalence at 56.8%, exceeding Arab Sunni at 43.2% and Kurdish at 41.5%. Logistic regression analysis demonstrates that direct exposure to sectarian violence increases the risk of major depression by 3.4 times (OR=3.42, p<.001), anxiety by 2.8 times (OR=2.83, p<.001), and psychosomatic disorders by 2.5 times (OR=2.54, p<.001). Further meta-regression identifies duration of conflict exposure (β=.426, p<.001) and intensity of sectarian violence (β=.389, p<.001) as significant predictors of symptom severity. In contrast to the findings of Cummings et al. (2013) and Eltally (2019), which emphasize the general impact of conflict, this study reveals specific intergenerational trauma patterns within distinct ethnoreligious communities, with the highest transmission observed among families of sectarian massacre victims (d=0.82), while simultaneously highlighting variations in communal resilience across groups as a differential determinant of post-conflict psychosocial dynamics.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of parent empowerment in optimizing tummy time on head control in infants aged 0–6 months at community health posts in Jatisampurna, Bekasi. Early motor development requires adequate sensory–motor stimulation, yet many parents have limited knowledge and practice of prone positioning activities. A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was employed involving nine healthy infants selected through purposive sampling. Parents received education and practical training on tummy time and were instructed to implement a home program for two weeks with a minimum duration of 30 minutes per day. Head control was assessed before and after the intervention using the Head Control Scale across prone, supine, pull-to-sit, and supported sitting positions. The results demonstrated improvements in head control scores in all positions, with the most notable gains observed in infants who had lower baseline abilities. The findings indicate that repeated prone stimulation enhances postural control through increased neck and trunk muscle activation and improved sensory–motor integration. Parent empowerment also increased knowledge, adherence to home stimulation, and active participation in child development monitoring. This community-based intervention shows potential as a promotive and preventive strategy to support early motor development through family-centered approaches at primary health services.

This study conducted treatment or intervention on clients to observe changes before and after using the HARS questionnaire .Results: All three forms of diversion therapy administered showed a decrease in anxiety levels in Mr. B. Measurements using the HARS instrument showed a decrease in scores  from an initial 19 to 13 after three interventions. Conclusion: The intervention, administered over three consecutive days, showed positive  changes with a decrease in anxiety scores.

Students with deaf disabilities often have difficulty understanding verbal instruction, but have significant advantages in visual and motor aspects. This service activity aims to apply multisensory methods through Suminagashi craft art training (cloth marbling) to improve students' fine motor skills and creativity at SLB B Yakut Purwokerto. The implementation method uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a "see-learn-do" strategy involving 20 high school students. The learning process integrates visual stimulation through structured demonstrations and tactile stimulation through the exploration of material textures. The results of the activity showed that the multisensory approach was effective in bridging the barriers of deaf students with disabilities in communicating due to hearing limitations. Students demonstrate a high level of visual focus and are able to replicate marble motif making techniques with precision without relying on complex verbal explanations. The combination of cue instructions and direct touch experiences has been proven to minimize miscommunication and improve understanding of abstract concepts of the material. This activity recommends the use of visual-tactile strategies as an adaptive inclusive learning method to support the vocational independence of deaf people.
