This study explores the effectiveness of a time management intervention in reducing academic procrastination among first- and second-semester undergraduate students at several universities in Malang. A quasi-experimental method was employed involving two groups with a total of 20 participants: 10 students in the experimental group who received a time management workshop and 10 students in the control group. The research instrument was the Academic Procrastination Scale developed by Onwuegbuzie. The intervention was conducted over six sessions focusing on techniques such as the Pomodoro Technique, Eisenhower Matrix, distraction management, relaxation, reward systems, to-do lists, leisure time management, and weekly scheduling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using an independent samples t-test and the nonparametric Mann–Whitney test. Participants were selected using a random sampling technique, and the academic procrastination scale was used as the primary measurement instrument. The results indicate that the time management intervention was effective in reducing academic procrastination, suggesting important implications for the development of more effective educational strategies. This research is expected to contribute to the design of more effective intervention programs to increase the academic productivity of students in higher education.

Ideally, final-year undergraduates are expected to demonstrate psychological maturity and a clear sense of future direction. However, the pressure of academic demands and social expectations often precipitates a "quarter-life crisis," triggering profound anxiety during this transitional phase. This study investigates the relationship between religiosity and the quarter life crisis among final-year students at Universitas Ibrahimy Situbondo. Employing a quantitative correlational design, the study involved 149 students selected via convenience sampling from a population of 237. Data were collected using the Religiosity Scale and the Quarter-Life Crisis Scale, then analyzed using simple linear regression with JASP version 0.19.1.0. Contrary to common assumptions in religious settings, the findings revealed that religiosity was not significantly associated with the quarter life crisis (p = .105 > .05). The effective contribution of religiosity in explaining the variance of the crisis was minimal (R2 = 0.018 or 1.8%), indicating that 98.2% of the phenomenon is driven by factors outside the scope of this study. These results suggest that religiosity is not a sole predictor capable of buffering against quarter life crisis. Consequently, further research should explore other potential mitigating variables, such as social support, self-efficacy, or career adaptability, particularly within Islamic boarding school-based university environments.

Psychology personnel in primary healthcare centers (Puskesmas) play a strategic role in delivering mental health services at the primary level; however, they are frequently confronted with complex and multifaceted job demands. This study aims to examine the effects of workload and work stress on the job performance of psychology personnel in Puskesmas in Surabaya City. A quantitative approach with a correlational cross-sectional design was employed. The study population comprised all psychology personnel working in Puskesmas in Surabaya City, with total sampling applied, resulting in 63 respondents. Workload and work stress were measured using five-point Likert scales, while job performance was assessed based on monthly psychology service reports. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that the majority of psychology personnel experienced high workload levels and relatively high work stress, whereas overall job performance was predominantly categorized as good. Regression analysis revealed that workload and work stress simultaneously had a significant effect on job performance, and partially both variables exerted a negative effect on performance. These findings suggest that although psychology personnel are generally able to maintain adequate performance, excessive workload and elevated work stress may potentially undermine performance in the long term if not properly managed. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of systematic workload management and work stress intervention strategies to sustain the quality of psychological services in primary healthcare settings.

This study aims to analyze the stages, impacts, and supporting and inhibiting factors of social intervention for child victims of sexual violence at the “Handayani” Center, East Jakarta. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach to obtain an in-depth understanding of the intervention process. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the “Handayani” Center applies the Generalist Intervention Model (GIM) through seven stages: engagement, assessment, planning, implementation, evaluation, termination, and follow-up. The social intervention has a positive impact on children, particularly in improving emotional stability, self-confidence, and social functioning. Furthermore, the intervention supports children’s readiness for social reintegration. Supporting factors include the professionalism of social workers and effective team collaboration, while inhibiting factors consist of high workload, delays in administrative reporting, and limited family support.  

Globalization has brought significant impacts across various sectors of life, including language and literature. Rapid flows of information, intercultural interactions, and the dominance of international languages such as English have triggered changes, adaptations, and even identity confusion in the use of local languages and the development of literary works. This paper explores the influence of globalization on the evolution of language and literature, both in the context of preservation and creativity. Language undergoes modifications in structure and vocabulary as a result of cultural interaction and technological advancement, while literature evolves in terms of genres and media, as reflected in the emergence of digital literature and literacy phenomena on social media platforms. On the other hand, globalization also provides opportunities for local literary works to reach international audiences through translation and digital media. Using a descriptive and analytical approach, this paper highlights the challenges and opportunities arising from the intersection of globalization, language, and literature, as well as their significance in formulating strategies to maintain cultural identity through language and literary expression.

Waste management at the village level still faces various challenges, particularly related to the practice of open burning, which causes environmental pollution and health risks. This condition reflects a gap between the concept of sustainable waste management within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the social reality of local communities. This community service activity aims to implement a low-smoke waste burning container as a community-based waste management innovation and to analyze its contribution to the achievement of the SDGs in Nglaris Village. The method applied was a participatory approach involving observation, socialization, design and construction of the burning container, assistance, and program evaluation. The results indicate that the implementation of the low-smoke burning container reduces the intensity of smoke emissions, increases community participation, and encourages behavioral changes in waste management practices. The program also contributes to improving the quality of the living environment and supports the achievement of SDGs, particularly in environmental, health, and sustainable settlement aspects. These findings demonstrate that simple technological innovations adapted to local social conditions can serve as a model for sustainable waste management at the village level.

Fine motor development is a fundamental prerequisite for academic readiness and independence in early childhood. Still, currently, challenges such as sedentary behaviour and screen exposure hinder the optimisation of these abilities. This community service program aims to implement a Play-Based Learning model of fine-motor stimulation to improve the physical and academic readiness of children at Tamalate State Kindergarten in Makassar City. The intervention program was conducted over two weeks through three main stimulation zones: Texture Zone (playdough and finger painting), Precision Zone (beading, origami, and cutting), and Manipulative Zone (busy board and puzzles). The target subjects were children in group B with fine-motor impairments, and the study evaluated 20 children using periodic observation checklists. The results showed a significant transformation, with 95% of children (19 out of 20 participants) experiencing an increase in achievement from the Starting to Develop (MB) category to Developing as Expected (BSH) and Developing Very Well (BSB). These findings confirm that a structured intervention through play zones is not only effective in strengthening intrinsic hand muscles and eye-hand coordination but also in building children's resilience and perseverance in learning. The program recommends integrating a micro-curriculum based on stimulation zones into daily learning plans and strengthening partnerships with parents to maintain consistency in children's development.

The method used was community empowerment based on field actions, which included observation, planning, implementation, and evaluation, involving students, village officials, and the community. The results of this activity showed that the road reflectors and PJU using photocell sensors successfully improved visibility at night, provided automatic and energy-efficient lighting, and made road users feel safer and more comfortable. This activity provided positive benefits to the community and helped build village infrastructure that can continue to develop in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Clean water quality is an important factor in supporting public health. In Kaliwader Village, Bener District, Purworejo Regency, drilled well water is used as the main source of clean water, however, based on initial testing, discrepancies were still found in several water quality parameters, particularly turbidity. The Community Service Lecture (KPM) activity of the Al-Qur'an Science University (UNSIQ) aims to improve the quality of drilled well water through the implementation of a water filtration system combined with a venturi aerator and providing education to the community about clean water management. The method used is a descriptive method with an observational approach, including water sampling, laboratory testing at the Regional Health Laboratory UPT, and the implementation of a Malang sand-based filtration unit with venturi aeration. The test results showed that the water turbidity level before treatment reached 8 NTU, exceeding the established quality standards. After the implementation of the filtration system and venturi aerator, the physical quality of the water improved, marked by a decrease in turbidity and an increase in water clarity. Chemical and microbiological parameters were generally within safe limits according to the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 2 of 2023. This activity demonstrated that the application of simple technology by UNSIQ KPM students can play an effective role in improving the quality of drilled well water and supporting the provision of more adequate clean water for the people of Kaliwader Village.

Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a crucial role in shaping students' personality and morals, not only by imparting religious knowledge but also by internalizing moral values for everyday life. The rapid development of technology, globalization, and social change presents challenges to moral development, requiring PAI learning to effectively integrate moral values in classroom dynamics. This study aims to examine the integration of moral values in PAI learning and its implications for strengthening character education. Using a qualitative approach with library research, data were gathered from books, journal articles, and previous studies on PAI and moral education. Data collection was through documentation, and content analysis was used to synthesize concepts, theories, and findings. The study finds that moral values in PAI learning are integrated through two approaches: explicit and implicit. Explicit integration involves teaching materials containing moral values, while implicit integration occurs through teacher role models, humanistic interactions, classroom management, and participatory and contextual learning methods. The integration of moral values enhances the meaning of PAI learning and contributes to students' attitudes and behavior. This study highlights that well-designed, value-oriented PAI learning plays a vital role in strengthening character education and continuously fostering students' morals.

This research analyzes the concept of Īmān (faith) according to Abū al-Mu'īn al-Nasafī (1027-1114 CE) in his work Al-Tamhīd fī Uṣūl al-Dīn. The study stems from the intellectual unrest and Fitnah that affected the Māturīdiyyah school in Mawarannahr, prompting al-Nasafī to become a key defender of the faith. The study utilizes library research with a descriptive-analytical and qualitative approach, analyzing both primary data from al-Nasafī’s work and secondary theological literature. The findings reveal al-Nasafī's views on Īmān: First, faith is a conviction of truth (Yaqīn) established in the heart towards God. Second, verbal affirmation and actions are symbolic and necessary for Islamic law but do not represent the essence of faith, which lies in the heart. Third, he rejects equating faith with deeds ('Amal), asserting that deeds and conviction are distinct, with conviction being stable and permanent, unlike actions. Al-Nasafī critiques earlier views, like those of al-Raqashī and others, who equated faith with mere verbal affirmation, deeming such views as hypocritical (Nifāq). His approach integrates reason ('Aql) and revelation (Waḥy), employing both Qur'anic texts (Bayānī) and rational arguments (Burhānī) to explain faith.

Delays in the submission of audited financial reports (audit report lag) remain a problem for public companies in Indonesia because they can reduce the relevance of information for investors and stalk holders. This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, solvency, liquidity, operational complexity, and company size on audit report lag in property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia stock exchange for the period 2022-2024. The research method used is quantitative with panel data regression analysis using Random Effect Model (REM). The results show that profitability and solvency have a negative effect on audit report lag, while company size have no effect. Simultaneously, all independent variables affect audit report lag. This study emphasizes the importance of financial performance and operational complexity in determining the timeliness of audited financial reporting.

The auditor's responsibilities include not only assessing the accuracy of financial statements and detecting fraud, but also evaluating the company's ability to continue its business on an ongoing basis. This responsibility arises from the expectations of shareholders and other stakeholders that auditors provide timely and relevant information about the company's future prospects to support rational and evidence-based investment decision-making. In this context, audit opinions related to business continuity are an important instrument in reducing information asymmetry between management and investors. This study aims to analyze the impact of liquidity, solvency, and audit quality on the issuance of business continuity declarations. The research sample consisted of coal mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2014 and 2017, a period marked by fluctuations in commodity prices and global economic uncertainty. Logistic regression is used as an analysis method because dependent variables are dichotomous. The results showed that audit quality had a significant negative impact on the issuance of business continuity declarations, while liquidity and solvency did not have a significant impact on the issuance of the declarations, indicating that the factors of governance and auditor independence were more decisive than short-term financial conditions.

This study aims to analyze the effect of company size and profitability on tax avoidance in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2022–2024 period. The research uses secondary data obtained from published financial statements, with a sample of 333 companies selected through a purposive sampling technique. Panel data regression is employed as the main analytical method to examine the relationship between the independent variables and tax avoidance practices. The results of the analysis indicate that profitability has a positive and significant effect on tax avoidance, suggesting that more profitable companies tend to engage more actively in tax planning strategies to reduce tax burdens. In contrast, company size is found to have no significant effect on tax avoidance, indicating that large and small manufacturing firms exhibit similar tax behavior. Overall, this study provides empirical evidence regarding the determinants of corporate tax avoidance and contributes to the literature by offering insights for policymakers, regulators, and stakeholders in understanding tax avoidance behavior in the manufacturing sector.

The results of this study indicate that although the HR Information System and Work Discipline have a positive influence on Job Satisfaction, both do not have a direct influence on Employee Performance, but rather through the role of Job Satisfaction as a significant mediator.

The rapid growth of e-commerce has intensified the need to understand transaction patterns and customer purchasing behavior as a foundation for strategic decision-making. This study aims to analyze e-commerce transaction patterns and customer purchasing behavior based on demographic characteristics and transaction timing. By utilizing e-commerce transaction data, this research seeks to provide a more comprehensive understanding of customers’ purchasing tendencies and the factors influencing their behavior. This study employs Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) as the primary method to descriptively explore data characteristics through various statistical visualizations, including histograms, bar charts, line graphs, and boxplots. The analysis conducted to identify transaction trends, the distribution of purchase values, and behavioral differences across demographic groups and specific time periods. The results indicate that e-commerce transaction patterns tend to increase during certain periods, particularly in the latter part of the observation timeframe, suggesting the influence of seasonal factors and promotional strategies. The distribution of transaction values is asymmetric, with most transactions occurring in the low to medium value range, while high-value transactions are conducted by a relatively small proportion of customers. Furthermore, variations in purchasing behavior are observed across demographic groups in terms of transaction frequency and value, despite relatively balanced transaction volumes. The findings confirm that e-commerce customer purchasing behavior is influenced by a combination of temporal factors and demographic characteristics. These results are expected to serve as a basis for e-commerce practitioners in developing more targeted marketing strategies and as a reference for future research in the field of e-commerce data analytics.
