The practice of early marriage persists as a significant societal controversy. Early marriage frequently results in adverse consequences for both the individuals involved and the children subsequently born. Children originating from such unions exhibit an elevated risk of encountering health and developmental challenges, which serve as principal indicators of child well-being. This research endeavors to analyze early marriage and its implications for child welfare through the lens of Family Law. The study aims to contribute novel insights and augment intellectual discourse concerning early marriage and its effects on child welfare. Furthermore, this research ascertains the congruence between the practice of early marriage and the principles of Islamic Sharia pertaining to child welfare. The methodology employed is empirical juridical research utilizing a qualitative approach, incorporating in-depth interviews conducted within the Jambi Luar Kota District. Data collection involved primary and secondary sources, gathered via observation, interviews, and documentation techniques. The study yielded three primary findings: (1) Influential factors contributing to early marriage in the Jambi Luar Kota District encompass: pregnancies compelling marriage, the educational backgrounds of the individuals entering early marriage and their respective parents, personal volition or familial influence and economic circumstances. (2) The repercussions of early marriage within the Jambi Luar Kota District for children include heightened vulnerability to diverse health and social issues, low birth weight, birth-related injuries, growth and developmental impediments such as stunting, and inadequate parental attention leading to hindered cognitive development. (3) From the perspective of Islamic family law, the principles of maqashid sharia demonstrate substantial relevance to child welfare. An ideal marriage necessitates physical, mental, and social preparedness, predicated on the virtuous intention of establishing a family characterized by tranquility (sakinah), affection (mawaddah), and compassion (rahmah). 

Baby blues syndrome is a common condition experienced by mothers after childbirth and can negatively impact both the mother and her baby. Several contributing factors include lack of mental preparedness due to young maternal age and limited parenting experience, as well as the number of children a mother has. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with the occurrence of baby blues syndrome at the Teling Community Health Center in Manado. This was an observational analytic study using a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique applied was simple random sampling with a total of 59 respondents. Data collection was conducted using the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the SPSS program and the Chi-Square test at a significance level of α = 0.05. The results revealed a significant relationship between maternal age and the occurrence of baby blues syndrome (P-value = 0.000 < α 0.05), as well as between parity and baby blues syndrome (P-value = 0.008 < α 0.05). In conclusion, maternal age and parity are significantly correlated with the occurrence of baby blues syndrome at the Teling Health Center. It is recommended that nurses, as healthcare providers, address not only the physical needs of postpartum mothers but also their psychological well-being. Early identification of emotional disturbances and collaboration with other healthcare professionals in providing counseling and promoting bonding between mother and baby during the postpartum period are essential to ensure optimal maternal mental health and healthy infant development

In Tanjungpinang, street vendors' (PKL) resistance to government policy demonstrates the complex dynamics of informal economy management. The purpose of this research is to gain an understanding of the different types of PKL resistance, the methods they use, and how it impacts on local economic policy. Relevant scientific documents were analyzed using a literature study approach. The results show that street vendors not only carry out physical resistance, but also carry out symbolic and cultural actions. As a result, organized social movements emerge. The government's top-down policies often cause tensions, so discussions and cooperation are needed to create more inclusive and participatory policies. Economic empowerment, spatial flexibility, and the development of public-private partnerships are some of the suggested solutions. It is hoped that this research will make a significant contribution to building a policy model that is more responsive to the social realities of society, especially with regard to vulnerable groups.

This research examines the implementation of electronic signatures and e-notarization within Indonesia's notarial legal framework, analyzing the tensions between technological innovation and traditional notarial principles. Indonesia has established basic legal recognition for electronic signatures through Law No. 11/2008 on Electronic Information and Transactions (as amended by Law No. 19/2016) and conceptually acknowledged cyber notary in the explanation of Article 15(3) of Law No. 2/2014 on Notary Positions which mentions "the authority to certify transactions conducted electronically". However, significant regulatory and practical challenges persist due to contradictions between digital concepts and traditional notarial requirements such as physical presence during the notarial process. The research reveals Indonesia lags behind many jurisdictions with similar civil law traditions in e-notarization implementation where the integration of digital elements into notarial systems has enhanced efficiency while maintaining security standards. This study proposes a balanced implementation approach that preserves essential notarial functions of authentication and legal certainty while leveraging technology to enhance accessibility and efficiency, requiring legislative reforms, technical standardization, institutional development, and professional training to create a comprehensive e-notarization framework suited to Indonesia's legal context.

Addressing anemia should be a priority in public health policy.

Public service is an essential element that reflects the quality of governance in Indonesia, particularly in population administration, which includes the issuance of important documents such as ID cards (KTP), family cards (KK), birth certificates, and death certificates. Along with technological advancements, Indonesia launched the Digital Population Identity (IKD) application to improve efficiency and reduce reliance on physical documents. This study aims to evaluate the positive public’s response of the IKD application in Singosari District, Malang Regency, as well as to identify the challenges and factors influencing the implementation of this policy. The research method used is descriptive qualitative research with approaches such as interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings show that although the IKD application facilitates the administrative process, there are still challenges such as a lack of public’s response, limited mobile device availability, and technical issues with the application. Socialization through social media and the improvement of operator capacity are key supporting factors for the success of the implementation. This study contributes theoretically to the development of E-Governance concepts and practically highlights the importance of digital education for the public. It is suggested that enhanced socialization for groups less familiar with technology, improved supporting infrastructure, and training for service operators are necessary to ensure the success of the IKD application in population administration services in Singosari District.

The literary work of poetry, whether in cyber form or not, is inseparable from the activity of analysis. Poetry can be examined from various aspects, one of which is through an objective approach that focuses on the structural elements that build the poem itself. However, cyber literature, as a product of literary development that utilizes digital media for dissemination, has its own uniqueness in its analysis, such as the poem Aku Ingin by Saut Situmorang, which is presented on the Wattpad platform. The analysis not only examines the internal aspects of the poem but also includes cyber elements such as hyperlinks and hypertext. This study aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the structure or elements that construct the poem, as well as the hypertext and hyperlinks embedded within it. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method with an objective poetry analysis approach. The physical structure of the poem Aku Ingin by Saut Situmorang includes the poem’s form, diction, concrete words, figurative language, and imagery. Meanwhile, its inner structure consists of theme, tone, atmosphere, and message. The cyber elements in the poem include hyperlinks and hypertext. This study concludes that the poem Aku Ingin by Saut Situmorang contains several key components that make it dense and cohesive, both in terms of physical and inner structure. Additionally, the poem can be categorized as cyber literature because it implicitly contains hypertext that establishes intertextuality with the legendary love story of Romeo and Juliet and the poem Aku Ingin by Sapardi Djoko Damono. Its presence on the Wattpad platform also enables interactivity between readers and the author.

The development of the industrial sector has experienced significant acceleration due to the support of advancing technology and creative innovations from various companies. These innovations result from the collective contributions of all levels within a company's structure. This situation has intensified industrial competition, encouraging companies to continuously innovate in producing products that meet societal needs. Companies capable of creating high-quality products relevant to market demands have a greater chance of surviving and excelling in competition. For instance, between December 2023 and January 2024, a telecommunications company successfully produced 150,077,945 physical vouchers, with an average daily production of 2,543,694 units. During the production process, physical vouchers must meet specific criteria to ensure their quality. Quality control focuses not only on reducing product defect rates but also prioritizes customer satisfaction and loyalty. Six Sigma is one of the methodologies used to increase production process quality by reducing process variance and minimizing the number of defects in products or services. To facilitate the implementation of Six Sigma, the 5W+1H method can serve as a supplementary approach for problem identification and resolution. This technique involves systematically collecting information by answering the questions: What, Where, Who, When, Why, and How.

The nutritional status of toddlers significantly influences their growth and development, especially during the first five years of life. PSG 2017 data indicates that the prevalence of stunting in toddlers is 27.5%, underweight 8.0%, severely underweight 3.1%, malnutrition 22.8%, and overnutrition 17.8%. If left unaddressed, nutritional problems can lead to growth disorders, increased susceptibility to illness, and physical, psychomotor, and mental development delays.Higher education institutions play a role in community service, such as providing nutrition education for mothers of toddlers at Mitra Medika Tanjung Mulia Hospital. This activity was conducted in collaboration with Posyandu at RT 17, Kendang Mas Village, including toddler weight monitoring and education for health cadres and parents. Among 15 participating toddlers, 8 (53%) had good nutrition, 4 (26%) were undernourished, and 3 (21%) were overnourished. Counseling through lectures and leaflets effectively improved mothers’ knowledge of balanced nutrition and food preparation.

College students are in early adulthood, a critical developmental stage marked by physical, psychosocial, and cognitive changes that can significantly impact dietary behaviors, including fruit and vegetable consumption. Adequate intake of fruits and vegetables is essential for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). However, evidence indicates that fruit and vegetable intake among college students often falls below the levels recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). This study aimed to validate a Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) for assessing total fruit and vegetable intake among college students in Surabaya City, Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 30 active university students. The SQ-FFQ method produced higher intake estimates compared to the Estimated Food Record. A statistically significant and strong correlation was found between the two methods (p < 0.001, r > 0.7), indicating strong agreement. These findings support the SQ-FFQ as a valid tool for measuring total fruit and vegetable intake in this population.

Ketoprak as a form of traditional Javanese theater has the characteristics of historical storytelling or legend supported by artistic elements such as music, dialogue, clothing, and stage settings. In its development towards a modern form of ketoprak, the use of multimedia technology has become one of the significant innovations, especially in the creation of performance settings. This article examines in depth the function of multimedia in supporting the creation of modern ketoprak settings, both from aesthetic, dramatic, and production efficiency aspects. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection through observation of ketoprak performances that integrate multimedia, in-depth interviews with directors, artistic stylists, and multimedia technicians, and literature studies that discuss contemporary performing arts. The results of the study show that multimedia plays an important role in building richer imaginative atmospheres and spaces and allows for the depiction of complex settings such as palaces, forests, or battlefields quickly and effectively. In addition, multimedia expands visual possibilities through projection of images, videos, and dynamic light effects that cannot be achieved with traditional physical properties alone. The multimedia function has also been proven to enhance the viewer experience by presenting a more modern visual sensation without losing the traditional identity of ketoprak. These findings indicate that multimedia serves not only as a complement, but also as an integral element that influences the overall aesthetic, reinforces dramatic messages, and facilitates transitions between scenes.

This study aims to reveal the creative process behind the creation of the Bayu Akasa instrument, an organological innovation based on bamboo by contemporary artist Mugiyono Kasido. Through a qualitative approach using case study methods, this study examines two crucial stages in the creation of the work, namely the material exploration phase and the experimentation with physical techniques. Data was collected through in-depth observation of the subject's performance, documentation of the rehearsal process, and interviews regarding the philosophical and technical aspects of sound production. The results of the study show that: (1) The material exploration stage produced a 2-meter-long aerophone instrument made of petung bamboo with a diameter of 5.9–7.9 inches, designed with an integral three-part system; (2) The experimentation with playing techniques focused on mastering circular breathing or ngunjal, which enables the production of continuous meditative drone sounds without pause; (3) This innovation represents a blurring of the boundaries between choreographic and musical aspects, in which the instrument is no longer treated as a static object but as a somatic extension of the artist's body. These findings confirm that Bayu Akasa is not just an ordinary wind instrument, but a representation of space (Akasa) and breath (Bayu) manifested in a radical performative unity. This research contributes to the development of contemporary organology based on local materials in Indonesia.

Currently, Indonesia faces three major nutrition-related problems among adolescents, known as the triple burden of malnutrition, namely undernutrition (stunting and wasting), micronutrient deficiencies, and obesity. Children's cognitive development is greatly influenced by adequate nutrition, as physical and brain growth go hand in hand in the growth and development process. A balanced and high-quality diet supports optimal growth and development and influences children's nutritional status and intellectual intelligence. This study aims to analyze the relationship between nutritional status and intellectual intelligence in students. This study is an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional approach. The subjects of this study were 68 students aged 13–15 years at SMPN 2 Sumber, Probolinggo Regency. Primary data were obtained through IQ tests and weight and height measurements, while secondary data were in the form of student identities. Data analysis used a two-sample t-test. The results showed that out of 42 students with poor nutritional status, 38 students (90.5%) had low IQ (<100). Among 23 students with normal nutritional status, 11 students (47.8%) had low IQ and 12 students (52.2%) had moderate IQ (100–109). The statistical test results showed a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant relationship between nutritional status and intellectual ability. In conclusion, nutritional status is associated with intellectual ability among students at SMPN 2 Sumber, Probolinggo District. Students with poor nutritional status have a higher risk of having an IQ below average.

Consumer protection is a crucial aspect in the face of rapid economic development and increased industrial competition, including in the bottled water sector. The Aqua product packaging defect case in Semarang in July 2017 is a clear example of weak quality control and the importance of producer accountability. Defects such as bottle caps that can be pried off without breaking the seal create uncertainty over product safety and reduce consumer confidence. Law No. 8/1999 on Consumer Protection provides a strong legal basis for consumers to obtain safe products and claim compensation for losses due to defective products. Manufacturers have an absolute responsibility to ensure product safety through the implementation of strict quality control systems, early detection of physical defects, and digital tracking for product recalls if necessary. In addition, consumer education and optimization of public complaint media are important parts of the consumer protection system. With a comprehensive preventive and corrective approach, risks due to defective products can be minimized, and public trust in the industry can be maintained.

Occupational safety and health (K3) is an important factor in ensuring the physical and mental health of workers and creating a safe work environment. This research discusses the implementation of K3 management to minimize work hazards, especially those caused by developments in industrial technology and the use of hazardous materials such as asbestos. As a destructive material, asbestos can cause serious diseases such as lung and pleural cancer if not managed properly. Referring to the K3 management system policy in the Minister of Manpower Decree No. 05 1996, this research emphasizes the important role of company management in integrating K3 into the operating system. It is hoped that the results of this research can serve as a guide for the business world to identify hazards, assess risks, and implement control measures to create a safe and secure work environment.
