In the contemporary digital marketplace, consumers increasingly face diverse product choices and brand communications. Understanding the mechanisms through which product quality and brand perception influence customer loyalty remains critical for competitive advantage. The mediating role of customer trust in this relationship has received limited empirical attention within Indonesian market contexts. This research analyzes the direct and indirect effects of product quality and brand perception on customer loyalty, with customer trust as a mediating variable, using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) methodology on 103 respondents. A quantitative cross-sectional survey design was employed, collecting data via Likert-scale questionnaires (1-5) with 15 measurement items across four latent constructs: Product Quality (5 items), Brand Perception (4 items), Customer Trust (3 items), and Customer Loyalty (3 items). Data analysis utilized PLS-SEM via SmartPLS 3.0, including assessment of measurement model validity (outer model), structural relationships (inner model), and mediation effects through bootstrapping (5000 iterations). The outer model demonstrated adequate validity with 12 of 15 indicators loading above 0.7, and all constructs meeting composite reliability (CR > 0.7) and average variance extracted (AVE > 0.5) criteria. The inner model revealed that product quality significantly influenced customer trust (β = 0.624, p < 0.001), while brand perception showed no significant direct effect (β = 0.045, p = 0.767). Customer trust strongly predicted loyalty (β = 0.650, p < 0.001). Product quality demonstrated a significant indirect effect on loyalty through trust (β = 0.405, p < 0.001), indicating full mediation. The model explained 43.5% of trust variance and 42.2% of loyalty variance. Product quality emerged as the dominant antecedent of customer trust and loyalty, while brand perception did not significantly contribute. Trust served as the critical mechanism translating quality into loyalty. These findings suggest that companies should prioritize quality assurance and consistent delivery over brand marketing campaigns for sustainable loyalty development. The research contributes to mediation theory in consumer behavior and provides actionable strategic guidance for practitioners in emerging markets.

Simultaneously, all three variables have a significant impact on purchasing decisions for Maybelline products on the Lazada marketplace. These findings provide important implications for online businesses to pay closer attention to customer reviews and pricing strategies to better influence consumer purchase behavior.

The dynamics of student organization structure have significant implications for talent retention and student career development. This study aims to comparatively analyze the influence of centralization and decentralization structures in the Information Technology Study Program Student Association on the effectiveness of talent retention strategies and career development capacity. The research method uses a quantitative approach with a comparative design involving 120 respondents selected through purposive sampling technique with criteria of at least one period of organizational experience. Data collection instruments use structured Likert scale questionnaires that have been tested for validity and reliability with Cronbach's Alpha values above 0.80. Data analysis uses Structural Equation Modeling and independent sample t-test to compare both structural models. The results show that the decentralization structure has a strong significant effect on talent retention with a path coefficient of 0.628 compared to centralization of 0.312. Comparative analysis identifies substantial differentiation in all dimensions of career development with the decentralization structure consistently outperforming centralization, especially in the aspect of decision-making autonomy. The findings confirm that the distribution of authority in decentralization creates a learning ecosystem that facilitates diversification of leadership experiences and strengthens students' organizational commitment through participatory empowerment mechanisms.

This study aims to analyze the impact of government expenditure development and government budgeting on the social assistance recipients affected by floods. The research approach uses a quantitative method with a total of 50 respondents selected through sampling techniques. Data processing was conducted using SPSS software with various statistical tests, including validity test, reliability test, multiple linear regression, t-test, and F-test. The results show that the development of government expenditure has a significant impact on the condition of the social assistance recipients. Additionally, government budgeting also has a significant impact on the effectiveness of social assistance distribution after the disaster. Simultaneously, both variables have a strong influence on the social assistance recipients, as reflected by the significant F-test value and the coefficient of determination (R Square) of 0.518. This means that 51.8% of the variation in the condition of social assistance recipients can be explained by the development of government expenditure and government budgeting. These findings highlight the importance of appropriate expenditure and budgeting policies to enhance the effectiveness of social assistance distribution, especially in disaster situations.

This study aims to analyze the marketing strategies of Islamic bank products based on sharia values implemented in Mojoarno Village (Ikhsanudin et al. 2024). The background of this research is the increasing development of Islamic banking in Indonesia which is not always followed by sucient understanding of sharia nancial products at the rural level (Qothrunnada et al. 2023). This condition requires Islamic banks to design marketing strategies that are not only focused on product promotion, but also on education, empowerment, and strengthening public trust (Damayanti 2023). This research uses a qualitative case study approach on an Islamic bank that actively conducts marketing activities around Mojoarno Village (Yin 2018). Data were collected through in-depth interviews with bank marketing sta , religious leaders, and customers, participatory observation in socialization and religious activities, as well as documentation of promotional materials and internal reports (Miles and Huberman 2014). The data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing with source and technique triangulation to ensure validity. The ndings show that marketing strategies integrated with sharia values—such as justice, transparency, and avoidance of riba, gharar, and maysir—combined with religious and cultural approaches through mosques and majelis taklim can increase public literacy and interest in Islamic bank products (Rahman, Aji, and Sopingi 2023). However, several challenges still remain, including low initial nancial literacy, strong informal nancial practices, and limited marketing resources in rural areas (Syifa, Nasution, and Inayah 2024). The implications of this research emphasize the importance of synergy between Islamic banks, religious leaders, and local communities to develop sustainable sharia-based marketing models in rural contexts.

This article provides a comprehensive examination of the application of the lex loci celebrationis principle in the execution of notarial deeds involving foreign legal subjects within the Indonesian legal system. The principle affirms that any authentic deed executed in Indonesia must comply with national legal requirements, regardless of the parties’ nationality or the existence of transnational legal relations. Through normative legal research employing statutory, conceptual, comparative, and case-study approaches, this article elucidates how the lex loci celebrationis principle interacts with private international law, particularly in relation to the legal capacity of foreign nationals, the use of foreign documents, and the limits of jurisdiction. The analysis reviews the Law on Notarial Office, the Indonesian Civil Code, population administration regulations, as well as doctrinal developments and jurisprudence pertaining to international legal acts. The findings indicate that although the substantive aspects of an agreement may refer to foreign law through lex voluntatis, the formal validity of a notarial deed remains entirely governed by Indonesian law. These findings underscore the need to enhance the competence of notaries in understanding the dynamics of private international law and highlight the importance of harmonizing national regulations with the principles of private international law to ensure legal certainty in cross-border transactions.

The background of this research stems from the need to reexamine the position of theories of truth in the philosophy of science as a basis for the formation of scientific ethics amid the increasingly complex development of modern science. The concept of truth not only functions as an epistemological guideline in determining the validity of knowledge, but also has a normative dimension that influences the integrity, honesty, and responsibility of scientists in the research process. Based on this, this study aims to analyze various theories of truth, including correspondence, coherence, pragmatism, consensus, performativity, deflationism, and foundationalism, and to explain the relevance of each approach to the formation of scientific ethics. This study uses a literature review method with a descriptive-analytical approach through a systematic search of relevant journals, books, and academic sources, which are then analyzed through thematic synthesis to obtain a comprehensive conceptual understanding. The findings show that each theory of truth has a unique contribution to building scientific ethics. Correspondence emphasizes the importance of empirical verification, coherence emphasizes rational consistency, pragmatism highlights theoretical functionality, consensus places scientific dialogue as the legitimization of knowledge, performativity connects truth with action, the deflationary approach emphasizes clarity of language, and foundationalism provides a stable epistemic foundation. The implications of this research show that the integration of these various theories can form a more robust, holistic, and adaptive framework of scientific ethics to the demands of modern scientific practice. This framework is expected to strengthen an honest, transparent, and accountable scientific culture, while opening opportunities for the development of epistemology-based research ethics guidelines in the future.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has fundamentally transformed civil legal interactions, making electronic documents such as instant messages, online transactions, and digital contracts primary forms of evidence in many civil disputes. However, their admissibility in judicial proceedings remains fraught with challenges concerning formal and material validity. This study aims to identify juridical and technical obstacles in digital evidence and to formulate an ideal model for civil procedural law that ensures reliable electronic proof. A normative-juridical approach with qualitative analysis was employed, combining doctrinal research through legislative review, jurisprudence, and scholarly literature with case studies of court decisions involving electronic evidence, particularly in divorce disputes. The findings reveal that inconsistent judicial treatment stems from the absence of specific procedural rules in Indonesia’s civil procedure framework still rooted in colonial-era HIR and RBg alongside limited digital infrastructure and low technological literacy among judicial actors. In response, the study proposes an integrated legal construction model featuring explicit provisions in the upcoming Civil Procedure Code, adoption of the functional equivalence principle, institutionalization of digital forensic experts in litigation, and procedural safeguards for vulnerable parties. The research concludes that only through holistic reform of the evidentiary paradigm can Indonesia’s civil justice system guarantee fairness, legal certainty, and relevance in the digital era.

This study aims to analyze the influence of financial knowledge, financial attitudes, and self-control on personal financial management among students of the Management Study Program at the Faculty of Economics, Universitas Kristen Indonesia Toraja, class of 2022. The research uses a quantitative approach, distributing questionnaires to 83 respondents selected through the Slovin formula. The data is analyzed using multiple linear regression, as well as validity, reliability, classical assumption, and hypothesis testing. The results show that financial knowledge has a positive and significant effect on personal financial management, while financial attitudes and self-control do not have a significant partial effect. However, simultaneously, the three independent variables have a significant impact on the students' personal financial management. These findings suggest that students' personal financial management is influenced by a combination of financial understanding, attitudes toward money management, and the ability to control their financial behavior. This indicates the importance of enhancing financial knowledge as a key factor in improving personal financial management among students, while attitudes and self-control need further attention to achieve better financial management.

This study aims to analyze the influence of service quality on consumer satisfaction at Katorroan Cafe Batutumonga, North Toraja Regency. This research uses a quantitative associative method with a questionnaire as a data collection tool involving 60 respondents who are visitors to the cafe. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive analysis, validity test, reliability test, classical assumption test, simple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing (t-test). The results showed that the service quality at Katorroan Cafe Batutumonga was in the good category, and consumer satisfaction was in the satisfied category. However, the results of the simple linear regression test showed a negative and significant influence of service quality on consumer satisfaction with a regression coefficient of -0.404 and a significance value of 0.000. This indicates that an increase in service quality is paradoxically followed by a decrease in consumer satisfaction in the context of this study. The coefficient of determination (R²) is 0.195, meaning that service quality contributes 19.5% to consumer satisfaction, while the remaining 80.5% is influenced by other factors outside the study.

This study aims to analyze the effect of using the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) on improving financial inclusion among Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in North Toraja Regency. The research is motivated by the rapid development of digital payment systems, which have not been optimally adopted by MSMEs in tourism areas. QRIS, as a non-cash payment innovation, is expected to expand access tofinancial services, enhance transaction efficiency, and encourage MSMEs’ participation in the formal financial system. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 35 handicraft MSMEs in the Ke’te Kesu’ tourism area, selected through a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS version 25 through validity and reliability tests, descriptive analysis, classical assumption tests, and simple linear regression. The results indicate that QRIS usage has a positive and significant effect on financial inclusion, with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.758 and a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.575. The t-test shows a significance value of < 0.05. These findings support the Financial Deepening theory and the financial inclusion concept, which emphasize access, affordability, and usage of financial services. Thus, QRIS serves as an important instrument in promoting digital transformation and enhancing financial inclusion among MSMEs in North Toraja Regency.

Based on Article 19 of the UUPA in conjunction with Article 37 paragraph (1) of PP 24/1997, the transfer of land rights through sale and purchase can only be registered if proven by a PPAT deed. However, because the process of fulfilling the requirements is quite complicated, people often buy and sell land verbally without following formal procedures. Regarding this practice, Decision Number 5592 K/Pdt/2024 is interesting because the Supreme Court has confirmed the validity of verbal land sales. This case study aims to understand the legal considerations in the decision in terms of contract law and the provisions of the Land Registration Regulation, as well as how the decision is implemented. The method used is a legal-normative approach through a review of legislation and court decisions, with a qualitative legal analysis of land sales and the implementation of the decision. The results of the study show that verbal land sales are valid according to Article 1320 of the Civil Code, but cannot be registered as a transfer of rights because Article 37 of Government Regulation No. 24/1997 requires a PPAT deed. Court decisions that have permanent legal force but are not voluntarily implemented can be enforced through the District Court with a 14-day aanmaning process, and if they are still ignored, execution will be carried out. If the forced execution does not go according to plan, the parties concerned can file a request for cancellation of the legal product based on Articles 38-40 of Agrarian Ministerial Regulation No. 21/2020.
