The rapid development of digital technology has significantly increased public access to online activities, including online gambling, which has emerged as a serious social problem in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the impact of online gambling on the mental health and social behavior of young people. This research employed a descriptive method with a survey approach. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to young respondents who had experience or exposure to online gambling activities. The findings indicate that involvement in online gambling has a significant impact on mental health disorders such as stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. In addition, online gambling contributes to a decline in social interaction quality, increased family conflict, social withdrawal, and reduced productivity. Behavioral changes such as impulsivity and decreased self-control were also identified among respondents. These results demonstrate that online gambling not only affects individuals psychologically but also disrupts social relationships and family harmony. Therefore, comprehensive preventive efforts are needed through digital literacy enhancement, family involvement, and psychological support services to protect young people from the negative consequences of online gambling.

The house renovation program is one of the government's efforts to improve the quality of housing for low-income people. However, the process of selecting recipients of home surgery assistance is often faced with obstacles in determining the right and fair priorities for recipients. Therefore, this study aims to design and implement a home surgery decision-making system at the Housing, Residential Areas, and Land Office using the Weight Product (WP) method. The WP method was chosen because of its ability to conduct an objective assessment of various relevant criteria, such as the condition of the house, ownership status, level of welfare, and socioeconomic needs of the recipient. This system will give weight to each criterion used to determine the priority of home surgical assistance for residents in need. In its implementation, this system is able to process data from various prospective recipients and produce an automatic and transparent order of priority recipients. The results of the evaluation show that this system can improve efficiency and accuracy in the decision-making process, as well as assist the Housing Office in implementing the house renovation program more on target. With this system, it is hoped that the home renovation program can provide greater benefits to people in need, as well as accelerate the implementation of better housing programs.

Tax Management refers to a company’s efforts to manage its tax obligations efficiently and legally in order to optimize net income. This study aims to examine the effect of Fixed Asset Intensity and Leverage on Tax Management, with Profitability as a moderating variable, in mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2021–2024 period. This research is conducted because tax management practices are considered to potentially influence corporate profitability and financial performance. The study is grounded in Agency Theory and employs a quantitative approach. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, resulting in 28 companies observed over four years, with a total of 112 secondary data observations obtained from annual reports or financial statements. Data analysis was performed using EViews 13 with a Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) approach. The findings indicate that: (1) Fixed Asset Intensity has no significant effect on Tax Management; (2) Leverage has a significant negative effect on Tax Management; (3) Profitability does not moderate the relationship between Fixed Asset Intensity and Tax Management; and (4) Profitability strengthens the effect of Leverage on Tax Management.

Hypertension is a chronic condition that requires long-term management due to its strong association with an increased risk of serious complications when blood pressure is not adequately controlled. One of the key factors influencing the success of hypertension management is patient adherence to antihypertensive medication. However, suboptimal adherence remains a common problem and may lead to poor therapeutic outcomes. This literature review aimed to examine the relationship between adherence to antihypertensive medication and blood pressure control among patients with hypertension. A systematic search of the literature was conducted using the PubMed and Google Scholar databases with relevant keywords combined through Boolean operators. The selected articles were screened based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, including original research articles published within the last ten years, accessible in full text, and addressing the association between medication adherence and blood pressure in hypertensive patients. The findings of the reviewed studies indicate that most articles reported a significant relationship between medication adherence and blood pressure levels. Patients with higher adherence to antihypertensive therapy tended to achieve better blood pressure control compared to those with lower adherence. Although variations in the strength of the reported associations were observed across studies, the overall direction of the relationship was consistent. These results suggest that adherence to antihypertensive medication plays an essential role in achieving optimal blood pressure control. Therefore, this review highlights the importance of continuous efforts to improve patient adherence as part of effective hypertension management strategies aimed at reducing the risk of long-term complications.

Teamwork is a fundamental factor in social, organizational, and educational life, because in essence humans are social creatures that require the interaction and involvement of other individuals to meet their needs and achieve life goals. In the context of work, teamwork can be defined as the result of coordinated individual efforts that are able to produce higher performance than if work is done individually, or as a group of individuals working collectively to achieve common goals that are easier to achieve through collaboration. The implementation of teamwork plays an important role in accelerating job completion, improving individual and organizational performance, and being able to prevent overlapping tasks through good synchronization. Through intensive interaction, teamwork can have a positive impact on the overall performance of the group and also improve individual abilities through the process of knowledge and experience transfer between employees. The dimension of teamwork includes active member contributions, interaction and communication, consistency in maintaining focus on goals, quality of work results, and relevance of team members' knowledge and skills. Therefore, the effectiveness of teamwork is seen as the most important competitive advantage in an organization, making it a major factor that influences the increase in work productivity.

Stunting is a serious health problem that affects the physical and cognitive development of children, especially in toddlers aged 0-24 months, with a prevalence that remains high in Indonesia. Community service at the Kapasa Health Centre aims to provide health education to mothers as a strategic step to prevent stunting, using interactive methods and counselling on balanced nutrition and the importance of monitoring child growth. The program has been successful in improving maternal knowledge, with the average score increasing from 34% before the program to 78% after education, demonstrating its effectiveness in changing knowledge of child nutrition. The interactive approach encourages participant engagement, allowing mothers to actively discuss and ask questions, while visual materials reinforce understanding. To effectively combat stunting, education must be complemented by greater knowledge of nutritious foods and by parental monitoring of child growth. Collaboration with local health authorities and community organizations is critical to sustaining these efforts and ensuring that important information reaches more families. Continuous evaluation and adaptive strategies will be essential to expanding the program's reach and effectiveness, ultimately encouraging healthier future generations and contributing significantly to stunting prevention and increased health awareness in the community.

Balanced Nutrition Education and Strengthening Mothers' Participation in Posyandu Activities to Improve Toddler Nutritional Status Toddler nutrition continues to be a key focus in public health initiatives. Mothers' diet and active use of health services, particularly integrated health posts (Posyandu), are two factors that influence the nutritional status of toddlers.

This study evaluates the legal perspective concerning business competition in Indonesia regarding alleged abuse of dominant power in the competition between digital platforms TikTok Shop (including the acquisition of Tokopedia) and Shopee. The method applied is normative juridical with a case study approach, referring to Law Number 5 of 1999, particularly Articles 19–21 related to market control and Article 20 concerning below-cost selling practices. The analysis focuses on inter-platform integration, aggressive discount strategies, use of cross-platform data, as well as post-acquisition behavior that may hinder healthy competition. The assessment is conducted by considering market structure, business actors' behavior, and law enforcement efforts by the Business Competition Supervisory Commission (KPPU). Research findings indicate that although TikTok Shop has strong competitiveness following the acquisition, proving the existence of abuse of a dominant position requires meeting legal and economic provisions rigorously. Therefore, the implementation of conditional approval and remedial measures by the KPPU is considered a reasonable step to maintain a healthy business competition environment in the digital era.

One of the key instruments for advertising travel destinations is the growth of social media, particularly Instagram. Nevertheless, a large number of Instagram followers does not automatically translate into a large number of visitor visits. Rio By The Beach Beach in Kalianda, South Lampung had the most visitors during the 2025 holiday season, despite having fewer Instagram followers than other beach attractions. This condition suggests that the effectiveness of electronic word-of-mouth (E-WOM) and social media marketing may have a significant impact on travelers' decisions to visit. Thus, the purpose of this study is to ascertain how tourists' decisions to visit Rio By The Beach in Kalianda, South Lampung, are influenced by Instagram social media marketing and electronic word-of-mouth. This study examines 170 visitors to Rio By The Beach using a quantitative methodology and selective sampling strategies. Questionnaires were sent as part of the data collection process, and SPSS software was utilized for multiple linear regression data analysis. The study's findings show that electronic word-of-mouth and Instagram social media marketing significantly and favorably influence travelers' decisions to visit. Electronic word-of-mouth has a greater impact than the other one. The study's conclusions suggest that tourism destination managers should concentrate their marketing efforts more on user interaction, high-quality information, and developing travel experiences that can promote the creation of positive electronic word-of-mouth (E-WOM) in order to boost travelers' decisions to come.

Degenerative diseases are a major cause of morbidity in the elderly and continue to increase with age, lifestyle changes, and a lack of public awareness of the need for regular health check-ups. This community service activity aims to increase understanding and early detection of non-communicable diseases in people aged 30 years and older, particularly the elderly in the Appassarenge neighborhood, Bentenge Village, Ujung Bulu District, Bulukumba Regency. The activity methods included group exercise, blood pressure checks, blood sugar checks, health counseling, and referrals for participants with test results above normal limits. Data were analyzed descriptively to determine the proportion of participants with high blood pressure and blood sugar levels. The results showed that the majority of respondents had hypertension (70.97% of 31 participants), while 55.88% of 34 participants had high blood sugar levels. These findings indicate a high risk of non-communicable diseases in the elderly population related to diet, lack of physical activity, and a lack of regular health check-ups. This activity received a positive response because it provided easy access to health services and raised public awareness of the importance of early detection and adopting a healthy lifestyle. Overall, this community service activity contributed to increasing the elderly's knowledge and awareness of health, as well as supporting promotive and preventive efforts in preventing degenerative diseases.

The biggest challenge faced by the community, especially vulnerable and poor groups, is the cost of managing chronic diseases. Even though there is national health insurance, non-medical costs, costs arising from self-medication, and limitations on certain benefits are still often obstacles that cause high out-of-pocket expenses for the community. The high costs of curative and rehabilitative care indicate that preventive and promotive efforts must be significantly improved, and one way to support the sustainability of these efforts is through a pre-emptive health financing scheme. Community service activities are carried out using a participatory approach so that community members are actively involved in the activities. The activities are carried out in three stages, that is preparation or needs identification, implementation and evaluation. The results of the activity show that the community's knowledge increased significantly because of the community service activity. Participants who took part in the activity also successfully designed a community-based financing scheme involving health savings, whereby each member makes agreed monthly contributions. This community service project demonstrates that community empowerment through the establishment of a pre-emptive financing scheme for chronic diseases can provide an effective, sustainable solution for improving public health.
