Psychological well-being (PWB) represents an essential psychological condition that supports the effectiveness and professionalism of police officers, particularly those working in operational units. Criminal investigation officers routinely encounter complex job demands, strict time limitations, and high responsibility in case handling, which may intensify job stress and perceived workload and ultimately influence PWB. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between job stress and perceived workload with PWB being among officers of the Criminal Investigation Directorate of the Jambi Regional Police. A quantitative correlational approach was applied, involving 130 criminal investigation officers selected through purposive sampling. Data were obtained using online questionnaires consisting of a job stress scale, a perceived workload scale, and a PWB scale. Data analysis was performed using multiple correlation analysis with the assistance of SPSS software. The findings indicated that the majority of respondents were classified within the moderate category for all variables. The results of multiple correlation analysis demonstrated a significant relationship between job stress and perceived workload with PWB, indicated by a correlation coefficient of R = 0.409 with p < 0.001. These results suggest that job stress and perceived workload jointly contribute to variations in PWB of criminal investigation officers.

This study aims to examine the effect of green banking disclosure and social banking on firm value with banking sustainable performance as a mediating variable. The population in this research consists of banking subsector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2023 period, totaling 47 companies. The sampling technique used in this study was purposive sampling, resulting in a total of 30 data points that met the research criteria and could be analyzed. The analytical method employed was path analysis using SPSS version 25 to test the relationships among variables and the mediation effect. The results of this study indicate that green banking disclosure has a positive and significant effect on firm value. Social banking also has a positive and significant effect on firm value. Banking sustainable performance has a positive and significant effect on firm value as well. However, green banking disclosure does not have a positive and significant effect on banking sustainable performance, while social banking does have a positive and significant effect on banking sustainable performance. The mediation test results using path analysis reveal that banking sustainable performance is unable to mediate the effect of green banking disclosure on firm value. Conversely, banking sustainable performance successfully mediates the effect of social banking on firm value. These findings suggest that social banking is more effective in enhancing banking sustainable performance and firm value compared to green banking disclosure.

Work life balance has a negative and significant effect on work stress and is proven to mediate the effect of workload on work stress. These findings indicate that proper workload management and the creation of balance between work life and personal life are crucial to reduce employee work stress and improve their well-being.

The growth of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is causing big shifts in management roles and how ready organizations are, especially in private hospitals. In Medan City, rising competition, a small healthcare workforce, and strict accreditation requirements all make it even more important to use digital technology to make operations more efficient. This study seeks to examine the impact of AI on organizational readiness, utilizing management performance as a mediating variable. Quantitative approaches were employed via a survey of managers and administrative personnel at private hospitals, and the data were analyzed using path analysis with SPSS. The findings indicate that AI exerts a favorable and considerable influence on management performance, which in turn directly enhances organizational readiness. Additionally, managerial performance has been demonstrated to mediate the relationship between AI and organizational readiness. These findings address a research gap concerning the mechanisms of AI's role in the managerial context of hospitals in developing countries and offer practical implications for fortifying digital strategies, cultivating human resource competencies, and augmenting organizational capabilities in response to technology-driven healthcare transformation.

Poverty is one of the most difficult economic problems to solve. This problem occurs in all countries. Among the causes of poverty are poor human resources, a low quality of life, a rising unemployment rate, and a decrease in job availability each year, as well as wages that do not match living costs. This is not only due to low human resources; the government also plays a crucial role in this issue. The poverty rate is unavoidable, so an appropriate solution is needed to address this issue. One step to reducing poverty is to analyze which economic instruments can be optimized, especially in the Sidoarjo region. The poverty rate in Sidoarjo is quite high. The open unemployment rate in Sidoarjo ranks third in East Java province. Therefore, the author was interested in conducting this research. This study aims to determine the effect of the distribution of zakat, infaq, and alms (ZIS) funds, GRDP, and open unemployment on the poverty rate in Sidoarjo in 2013-2023. This study uses a quantitative method with multiple linear regression analysis. The data processing tool used is SPSS. The results of the T test indicate that the distribution of ZIS funds has a significant effect on the poverty rate, while GRDP and open unemployment do not have a significant effect on the poverty rate partially. The F test shows that the distribution of ZIS funds, inflation, and GDP have a significant effect on the poverty rate simultaneously in the period 2013-2023. The limitation of this study is the use of variables that affect the poverty rate, so that future researchers can add or change these variables with other variables related to poverty.
