Preparing medical students as future healthcare professionals to understand, use, and implement AI responsibly is a crucial aspect. This level of readiness can vary depending on their knowledge, abilities, perceptions, and ethics in using AI. This study aims to determine the readiness of young medical students in the Surabaya area in using artificial intelligence based on these four domains, and to compare scores between first-year professional students and undergraduate students. This study used a quantitative descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. The instrument used was the Medical Artificial Intelligence Scale for Medical Students questionnaire, which consists of four domains: knowledge, abilities, perceptions, and ethics. The study sample was first-year and second-year professional students of the Faculty of Medicine, Ciputra University. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics including mean values, standard deviations, and frequency distributions for each domain. The results showed that the total readiness scores for DM1 (89.95 ± 11.84) and DM2 (88.38 ± 8.85) showed a positive picture, with minimal mean differences. The knowledge and skills domain showed almost uniform values ​​between the two groups, while the ethics domain had the highest stability with a very small mean difference. These findings indicate that the readiness of professional students at the Faculty of Medicine, Ciputra University, towards the use of AI shows a positive and relatively even picture at all levels.  

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a major public health problem in endemic areas, including Olat Rarang Hamlet, Labuhan Sumbawa Village. Effective dengue prevention requires active community involvement supported by entomological surveillance data. This community service activity aimed to enhance community awareness and participation in dengue prevention through the implementation of the 3M Plus Movement integrated with an entomological surveillance approach using the House Index (HI), Container Index (CI), and Breteau Index (BI) indicators. The activity was conducted on December 6, 2025, involving local community members and public health students. The methods included health education, larval surveys in houses and water-holding containers, and community-based mosquito breeding site eradication. The results indicated that houses and containers positive for Aedes larvae were still present, reflecting a moderate risk of dengue transmission. However, the implementation of the 3M Plus Movement improved community knowledge, awareness, and participation in vector control. Integrating the 3M Plus Movement with entomological surveillance is an effective promotive and preventive strategy based on community empowerment for sustainable dengue prevention.

  Abstract. This study aims to develop and evaluate an artificial intelligence–based expert system to support fault diagnosis in Air Handling Units (AHUs). Early fault identification in AHU systems is often constrained by reliance on technician experience, which may lead to inconsistent diagnostic outcomes. The proposed system is intended to provide a consistent, explainable, and practical decision-support tool to assist maintenance personnel, particularly less-experienced technicians, in identifying AHU faults accurately. Methodology: The research adopts a rule-based expert system approach using forward chaining inference. Knowledge acquisition was conducted through structured interviews with experienced HVAC technicians and supported by technical documentation. The resulting knowledge base consists of observable symptoms, diagnostic rules, and corresponding corrective actions. The system was implemented as an Android-based mobile application to enable direct field usage. System validation was performed using real operational fault scenarios, with expert diagnoses serving as the reference standard. Findings: Evaluation results indicate full agreement between the system-generated diagnoses and expert assessments across all tested scenarios. This demonstrates that the proposed system is capable of producing accurate and consistent diagnostic outcomes within its defined knowledge domain. Implications: The system operates using deterministic rules without incorporating uncertainty modeling or probabilistic reasoning. Additionally, validation was limited to a finite number of real-world scenarios, which may affect generalizability to broader AHU configurations. Practical implications: The expert system can be utilized as a practical diagnostic aid in routine AHU maintenance, improving response time, diagnostic consistency, and technician training effectiveness. Originality: This study contributes a mobile-based, explainable expert system specifically tailored for AHU fault diagnosis, emphasizing practical deployment and rule transparency rather than data-intensive learning models.

This research aims to analyze in depth the level of understanding among Islamic Religious Education (PAI) students at the Islamic Institute of Nahdlatul Ulama (IAINU) Tuban regarding the concept of Ihsan and its implementation in community life. The urgency of this study is based on the strategic role of PAI students as future educators who are required to integrate spiritual dimensions and social ethics into their personalities. This research employs a quantitative approach with a descriptive survey method. Data were collected through a Likert scale questionnaire instrument that had been tested for validity and reliability, distributed to a sample of students selected through proportional random sampling. Data analysis was carried out systematically using descriptive statistics to calculate the mean value and categorization percentage across cognitive, affective, and applicative dimensions. The results indicated that the overall level of understanding of Ihsan among PAI students at IAINU Tuban falls into the low category, with a total mean score of 1.909. In detail, the affective dimension recorded the lowest score, indicating a weakness in the internalisation of spiritual consciousness, while the applicative dimension showed a slightly higher score but remained within the low category. It is concluded that there is a significant gap between the idealism of the Ihsan concept and the actual understanding of students in the field. These findings provide important implications for the need to reconstruct character-building strategies and the PAI curriculum, emphasizing the aspect of inner spiritual internalisation over mere formalistic cognitive knowledge transfer to produce graduates with authentic social piety.

Environmental pollution in coastal areas continues to be a critical issue, particularly in regions with high tourism activity such as Pantai Baru Seliper Ate in Sumbawa. The increasing accumulation of plastic waste and the lack of environmental awareness among visitors and local communities highlight the need for educational and practical interventions. This community service program aimed to strengthen students’ understanding of environmental cleanliness through Islamic values and participatory actions. The method consisted of short religious-based environmental education, a collaborative beach-cleaning activity, and a reflective session designed to reinforce ecological and spiritual awareness. The results showed a significant increase in students’ knowledge of environmental ethics, Islamic principles related to cleanliness, and practical skills in waste identification and sorting. The program also succeeded in improving the physical condition of the beach and fostering collective responsibility among participants. These findings indicate that integrating environmental education with Islamic values and hands-on activities can effectively enhance environmental awareness and support sustainable behavior among young people.

The formation of spiritual maturity within Christian families is often misunderstood as a result of chronological age or the length of one’s Christian experience. This literature study emphasizes that spiritual maturity is not determined by age, but by a continuous process of faith formation through biblical knowledge, spiritual practices, lifestyle modeling, and character transformation. Using library research methods, this study analyzes primary and secondary literature related to the role of families, stages of faith development, and the collaborative role of the church in spiritual formation. The findings reveal that the family serves as the central foundation of faith formation, requiring the active involvement of parents in Bible reading, prayer, ethical guidance, and moral example. Furthermore, spiritual maturity is influenced by developmental stages that do not necessarily correspond to biological age. The church functions as a collaborative partner that supports family spiritual growth through teaching, ministry involvement, and pastoral guidance. This study concludes that spiritual maturity is reflected in character and actions rather than ritual participation alone, and it recommends strengthening family-based faith education and cooperation with the church as a foundation for authentic spiritual growth.

Early detection of child growth and development is a crucial effort to prevent developmental delays and health problems in children. Family involvement plays a significant role because the family is the closest environment to the child and has continuous interaction in daily life. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of a family education program in improving parents’ knowledge and skills in detecting child growth and development. The research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design using a pretest–posttest method. The population consisted of families with children aged 0–6 years, with samples selected using purposive sampling techniques. Data were collected through questionnaires and observation sheets measuring parents’ knowledge, attitudes, and skills related to growth and developmental detection. Data analysis was conducted using paired sample t-tests. The results showed a significant increase in parents’ knowledge and skills after participating in the family education program. The findings indicate that structured and continuous family education can enhance parents’ ability to monitor child growth and development independently. This study implies that family-based education programs can be integrated into community health services as a preventive strategy to improve child health outcomes.

This study aims to analyze how the integration of traditional knowledge and digital knowledge shapes organizational strategies in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in responding to an increasingly competitive business environment. A quantitative approach was employed by applying variance-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using SmartPLS 3 software to 100 MSME respondents. The research model was developed by incorporating three main latent constructs, namely digital knowledge, traditional knowledge, and organizational strategy, which were measured using several indicators relevant to the MSME context. The analysis results indicate that all research instruments meet good reliability and validity criteria, with outer loading values ranging from 0.719 to 0.902, Average Variance Extracted (AVE) values above 0.64, and composite reliability exceeding 0.87. Structural model testing reveals that digital knowledge has a strong and significant effect on organizational strategy (β = 0.799), while traditional knowledge shows a very small effect (β = 0.024). The research model explains 66.4% of the variance in organizational strategy. These findings confirm that digital transformation is the primary factor in shaping competitive strategies among MSMEs, while traditional knowledge continues to serve as a foundation for local context and cultural values. Therefore, the implementation of a hybrid management approach is considered effective in assisting MSMEs in formulating more adaptive, innovative, and sustainable strategies.

Furthermore, this activity also increased teachers' motivation, creativity, and awareness of the importance of digital literacy in learning. This Field Study activity made a positive contribution to improving teacher competency and supporting the creation of more innovative, interactive, and relevant learning that reflects the characteristics of 21st-century learners.

Leadership is a fundamental aspect of human life that greatly determines the direction and quality of a society. The Qur’an, as the primary source of Islamic teachings, provides clear guidance regarding the criteria of an ideal leader based on divine values. This study aims to examine leadership criteria in the Qur’an through an analysis of Q.S. Al-Anbiya verse 73, Q.S. As-Sajdah verse 24, and Q.S. Yusuf verse 55. The research employs a library research method by analyzing the lexical meanings (mufradat), the historical context of the verses, and the interpretations of prominent mufassirs such as Buya Hamka and Muhammad Quraish Shihab. The findings indicate that leadership from a Qur’anic perspective is not merely oriented toward power, but is a great trust (amanah) that requires moral and spiritual integrity, patience, faith, trustworthiness, and competence. These verses emphasize that an ideal leader is one who guides others according to Allah’s command, possesses patience and strong conviction in His revelations, and is knowledgeable and trustworthy in managing public affairs. This study is relevant to contemporary conditions, particularly in addressing the leadership crisis marked by the abuse of power and weakened integrity. Therefore, understanding leadership criteria in the Qur’an is expected to serve as a foundation for Muslims in selecting and preparing leaders who are ethical, responsible, and morally upright.

The digital era presents challenges as well as opportunities for business actors, especially Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). Accelerating the adoption of digital technology-based payment systems is an urgent need so that MSMEs are able to compete and improve transaction efficiency. This Community Service (PKM) activity was carried out in Cendoro Village, Tuban Regency, with the aim of providing assistance to MSME actors through the implementation of a QRIS-based digital payment system. The method of implementing PKM consists of three stages, namely preparation, implementation, and evaluation. In the preparation stage, needs are identified and socialization of QRIS benefits are carried out. The implementation stage includes technical training on the use of QRIS as well as direct assistance in the implementation of non-cash transactions. The evaluation stage was carried out to measure the level of understanding and application of QRIS by participants. The results of the activity showed that participants understood the concept of digital payment and were able to apply QRIS in daily transactions. In addition, this activity encourages an increase in the adoption of QRIS which has an impact on efficiency, transaction security, expansion of market access, and local economic growth. The main obstacles faced include limited technological knowledge, uneven internet access, and operational costs. Thus, this PKM contributes to strengthening digital literacy and supporting technology-based economic transformation in Cendoro Village, Tuban Regency.

Long-term treatment adherence is critical for schizophrenia patients, yet non-adherence remains a significant global challenge, contributing to relapse, re-hospitalization, and increased healthcare costs. Understanding the underlying multidimensional factors is crucial for developing effective interventions. This systematic literature review aims to identify and categorize the dominant factors contributing to medication non-adherence among schizophrenia patients, based on current quantitative evidence (2019-2024). A systematic search of Google Scholar and PubMed targeted quantitative cross-sectional studies using the PICOST framework. Article selection followed PRISMA guidelines, and quality was assessed using the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist. Seven articles were included in the final narrative synthesis. The synthesis confirms that non-adherence is multifactorial. Identified factors were categorized into three groups: (1) Patient-related factors (e.g., poor illness insight, feeling cured, treatment fatigue); (2) Treatment-related factors (e.g., medication side effects, therapy duration); and (3) System and social factors (e.g., low family support, stigma, poor therapeutic alliance). Non-adherence is a complex issue arising from the interplay of patient, treatment, and social factors. Low family support and poor patient knowledge consistently emerge as key determinants. Interventions require a holistic approach extending beyond pharmacotherapy, focusing on comprehensive psychosocial education for patients and families, active side-effect management, and strengthening the family's role in care.

Food safety is a crucial aspect of public health, particularly for elementary school children who frequently consume street food or snacks sold within school environments. Food handlers play a key role in determining the level of hygiene and sanitation of the food served. This study aims to analyze the factors associated with food handlers’ hygiene behavior in elementary school canteens in Telanaipura District, Jambi City. This research employed a quantitative method with a cross-sectional approach involving 41 food handlers as respondents. Data were collected through structured interviews using questionnaires and direct observations based on hygiene and food sanitation standards in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Health No. 1096/Menkes/PER/VI/2011. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate methods with the Chi-Square test at a significance level of p < 0.05. The results showed that most food handlers exhibited poor hygiene behavior (61.0%). There were significant relationships between knowledge (p = 0.048), attitude (p = 0.000), and availability of facilities and infrastructure (p = 0.000) with hygiene behavior, while education level showed no significant association (p = 0.187). It can be concluded that improving hygiene behavior requires continuous training, supervision, and provision of adequate sanitation facilities to support food safety in school environments.

Introduction: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a serious disease transmitted by the aedes aegypti mosquito. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an infectious disease transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito and is still a public health problem. The high incidence of dengue fever is often caused by a lack of knowledge, attitudes, and actions of the community in carrying out appropriate prevention efforts. The goal is to identify the picture of community behavior in dengue prevention, including aspects of knowledge, attitudes, and actions. Method: was a quantitative descriptive with 100 respondents selected by random sampling in East Sidomulyo Village, Marpoyan Damai. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed univariately. Results: The variables of community behavior were obtained in the knowledge of most of the people who were low as many as 52 respondents (52%), most of the people's attitudes were obtained negative attitudes as many as 77 respondents (77%), the actions of the community mostly had less actions with the number of 59 respondents (59%), and the behavior of the community was relatively low. Conclusions and Suggestions: This study shows that the majority of the people of East Sidomulyo Village have lacking knowledge, attitudes, and actions in the prevention of dengue. Low preventive behavior is caused by a lack of knowledge and concern. Intensive, community based education is needed to raise awareness and preventive measures in an ongoing manner.

This study aims to identify factors associated with fast food consumption behavior among adolescents based on the Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) through a literature review. A descriptive literature review was conducted using nine peer-reviewed articles published between 2021 and 2025, retrieved from Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. The findings indicate that adolescent fast food consumption behavior is influenced by two main components of SCT, namely personal factors and environmental factors. Personal factors were predominantly examined through the knowledge variable, which showed inconsistent associations with fast food consumption, while other personal variables, although mostly related, lacked consistent empirical support across studies. In contrast, environmental factors demonstrated more consistent associations, particularly peer influence, mass media exposure, parental influence, and pocket money, which were repeatedly identified as significant determinants of fast food consumption among adolescents. In conclusion, adolescent fast food consumption behavior is more strongly influenced by environmental factors than by personal factors, highlighting the importance of multi-level interventions that address social and environmental contexts in shaping healthy eating behaviors among adolescents.

This article examines the concept of science from Western and Islamic perspectives, emphasizing the understanding, objects of study, goals, and uses of science in human life. This study is motivated by the differences in scientific paradigms between the modern Western tradition, which developed on the basis of rationality, empiricism, and the secularization of science, and the Islamic scientific tradition, which views science as an integral part of revelation, reason, and empirical reality. This research uses a qualitative method based on literature review with a descriptive-analytical and comparative approach to various classical and contemporary literary sources. The results of the study indicate that Western science tends to be anthropocentric, placing humans at the center of reality, and is oriented toward mastery of nature and the achievement of material progress. In contrast, science from an Islamic perspective is theocentric, placing God at the center of knowledge, and is directed toward achieving human well-being and a balance between this world and the afterlife. Despite these fundamental differences, both perspectives share similarities in the use of reason and empirical observation as primary instruments in the scientific process. This study is expected to provide a conceptual contribution to the development of the philosophy of science and efforts to integrate science in the contemporary era.

Education in the modern era requires students not only to master cognitive knowledge, but also to have the ability to think critically, analytically, creatively, and problem solving skills independently. Therefore, the application of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model and the Learning Strategy for Improving Thinking Ability (SPPKB) is considered relevant and ideal in the context of Christian Religious Education (PAK) to integrate faith values with the reality of daily life. This study uses a literature study method by examining scientific journals, books, and academic articles to analyze the definition, essence, characteristics, and steps of PBL which include the introduction of authentic cases, problem solving, investigation planning, independent learning, solution synthesis, presentation of results, and reflection. PBL has proven to be effective in increasing learning motivation, collaboration, and internalization of Christian moral values, although it has limitations in the relatively long time requirement and the demands of teacher competence as facilitators. Meanwhile, SPPKB emphasizes intellectual stimulus, exploration of ideas, data processing, in-depth analysis, and metacognitive reflection to form a systematic and independent mindset in dealing with religious ethical issues. These two student-centered learning strategies complement each other in forming students who are dynamic, reflective, critical, and responsible as Christian personalities through flexible and contextual learning adaptations in PAK.

The phenomenon of pseudoexpertise on social media, namely the tendency to feel knowledgeable without adequate scientific grounding due to exposure to unrestricted information, has become a serious challenge for Islamic religious education. This study employs a phenomenological method through in-depth interviews with two Master's students of Islamic Education (PAI) at UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, who come from different social backgrounds teaching at Islamic boarding schools in rural Bogor and urban South Jakarta to obtain diverse perspectives on how social context influences the emergence of pseudoexpertise. The selection of master's-level informants is based on their academic qualifications and teaching experience, which are considered capable of providing representative insights. Secondary sources include scientific articles and relevant literature. The findings indicate that globalization and pseudoexpertise constitute obstacles that are difficult for religious teachers to control, as students acquire much of their religious knowledge from outside the school without verification. Therefore, contextual Islamic Education (PAI) learning and teachers who serve as knowledge validators through healthy communication are required, enabling students to filter information and develop more mature religious literacy.
