Low levels of political literacy and political participation awareness among female university students remain a challenge for strengthening democracy at the local level. This condition is also found among female students in East Lombok, who tend to perceive political participation narrowly and lack the skills and confidence to engage actively as citizens. This community service program aims to enhance political literacy, participatory awareness, and the capacity of female students to understand and practice political participation in a critical and responsible manner. The program was implemented at the Institut Teknologi Sosial dan Kesehatan Muhammadiyah Selong using a community organizing approach integrated into the academic learning process. The methods included participatory discussions, mentoring, simulations, and critical reflection, positioning female students as active subjects throughout the activities. The results indicate an improvement in participants’ understanding of the meaning and forms of political participation, increased confidence in expressing opinions, and the emergence of new awareness regarding their roles as democratic citizens. In addition, a female student discussion group was formed as a space for collective learning and an early platform for local leadership. This program highlights the role of higher education institutions in promoting social transformation and strengthening women’s political participation at the local level.

This study examines sarcastic utterances by netizens on TikTok during the 2024 Gorontalo Regional Election, focusing on their forms, functions, and influencing factors. The research analyzed comments on TikTok videos related to the election, specifically those containing sarcasm, selected purposively. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the study categorized sarcastic utterances into four forms: (1) action sarcasm, (2) trait sarcasm, (3) result-of-action sarcasm, and (4) advisory sarcasm. The functions of these utterances include expressing opinions, prohibition, information, emphasis, rejection, commands, and statements. The study also identified two main factors influencing the use of sarcasm: emotional outbursts and disappointment toward the candidate pairs. The findings suggest that sarcasm is employed as a medium for expressing attitudes, emotions, and political judgments in digital discourse. This research highlights the role of sarcastic speech acts in the political conversation on social media during election campaigns.

The banking sector plays a strategic role in supporting financial system stability and capital market development. Market performance, reflected through stock returns, represents investor confidence in a firm’s prospects and sustainability. In recent years, investors have increasingly considered non-financial factors such as intellectual capital and corporate social responsibility in evaluating firm value. However, empirical findings regarding the effect of these factors on market performance remain inconsistent, particularly in the Indonesian banking sector. This study aims to examine the effect of intellectual capital and corporate social responsibility on market performance of conventional commercial banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2024 period. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from annual reports and sustainability reports. Intellectual capital is measured using the Value Added Intellectual Coefficient method, while corporate social responsibility is measured using a disclosure index based on the Global Reporting Initiative. Market performance is proxied by stock returns. Data analysis is conducted using multiple linear regression with the Ordinary Least Squares approach. The results indicate that intellectual capital and corporate social responsibility have a positive and significant effect on market performance. These findings suggest that effective management of intangible assets and social responsibility disclosure can enhance investor perception and firm value. The results provide important implications for bank management in formulating value-enhancing strategies and for investors in making investment decisions.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji peran simbol keagamaan dalam merefleksikan maupun menutupi kesenjangan kelas sosial di masyarakat perkotaan, dengan menggunakan perspektif teori Karl Marx mengenai agama sebagai ideologi dan alat legitimasi kekuasaan. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus, melalui wawancara semi-struktural terhadap warga kota dari kelas sosial menengah ke atas dan kelas menengah ke bawah, serta tokoh agama setempat. Data dianalisis dengan teknik analisis tematik untuk melihat pola relasi antara simbol agama, posisi kelas, dan akses terhadap kekuasaan sosial-ekonomi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa simbol agama kerap digunakan oleh kelas atas sebagai sarana pembentukan citra, legitimasi status, dan penguatan struktur sosial, sedangkan bagi kelas bawah agama berfungsi sebagai sumber harapan dan solidaritas sosial, namun tidak selalu membuka akses terhadap mobilitas ekonomi. Secara umum, agama dapat berfungsi ganda: menjadi media pemersatu sosial sekaligus cermin ketimpangan kelas yang tersembunyi dalam praktik keagamaan sehari-hari. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya membaca agama tidak hanya secara teologis, tetapi juga sebagai fenomena sosial yang berkaitan dengan produksi makna, kekuasaan, dan distribusi sumber daya.

The Professional Work Lecture (KKP) at the Makassar Class I Prison aims to support the process of fostering Correctional Assisted Citizens (WBP) through recreational activities based on fun games. This program was implemented in response to the condition of WBPs who often experience boredom, psychological stress, and limitations in positive activities during the coaching period. This study uses a descriptive approach with data collection techniques in the form of questionnaires, observations, and interviews involving 30 WBPs, to identify needs and evaluate the impact of the implementation of activities. Fun games activities are carried out through several stages, namely planning, preparation, implementation, and evaluation, by adjusting the conditions and rules that apply in the prison environment. The results of the implementation show that this activity is able to create a more positive atmosphere, increase a sense of togetherness, and help WBP in expressing and managing emotions in a healthier way. The results of the post-activity survey showed that 19 WBPs stated that they were very satisfied and 18 WBPs felt very happy after participating in fun games. Thus, fun games activities have proven to be effective as a coaching strategy that supports the improvement of the psychological welfare of WBP and can be used as an alternative to non-formal coaching programs in correctional institutions.

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted by blood pumped by the heart against the walls of the arteries. Abnormalities in blood pressure can take the form of high blood pressure or hypertension and low blood pressure or hypotension. Hypertension is a non-communicable disease that is one of the risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and sufferers often do not show any symptoms. This community service activity aimed to examine the results of blood pressure measurements among inmates at the Class IIB Detention Center in Masohi City. This study used a descriptive observational design with a cross-sectional approach. There were 95 inmates who participated in this activity. Data analysis was conducted using quantitative descriptive methods to describe the blood pressure measurement results based on demographic data such as age, gender, education level, occupation, height, and weight. The results showed that most respondents were in the 20-30 age range (44.2%) and male (91.6%). The level of education shows that most respondents only completed high school (54.7%) and the majority worked as farmers (30.5%). Anthropometric characteristics in terms of height show that most respondents were between 140-160 cm (47.4%) and weighed between 51-60 kg (43.2%). The distribution of blood pressure shows that most respondents are in the pre-hypertension (40%), normal (29.5%), grade 1 hypertension (17.9%), and grade 2 hypertension (10.5%). Therefore, routine blood pressure checks need to be carried out so that inmates in detention centers can avoid hypertension, which can be a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

Consumer protection is an important pillar in ensuring fairness and balance in the relationship between business actors and consumers, including for foreign nationals who transact in Indonesia. Economic globalization and digital developments are expanding the range of cross-border economic activities that demand the presence of an inclusive legal protection system that is adaptive to modern trade dynamics. This research aims to analyze consumer protection for foreign nationals in Indonesia through juridical and sociological approaches to understand the implementation of legal norms, the effectiveness of dispute resolution mechanisms, and the social realities faced by foreign consumers in practice. The research method used is normative legal research with a legislative approach and a sociological approach through the analysis of the literature, regulations, and empirical findings from various studies related to cross-border consumer protection. The results of the study show that although normatively Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection guarantees equal rights for all consumers, in practice there are still administrative, cultural, linguistic, and information access obstacles experienced by foreign citizens. These findings affirm the importance of harmonizing consumer protection policies with the principles of global justice, accessibility, and non-discrimination.

Drug abuse remains a serious problem in Indonesia, including in Jambi Province. Its effects are not only physical but also psychological, with aggressive behavior being one of the common consequences. Family support is considered a protective factor that can reduce aggression among inmates with a history of drug abuse. This study aims to describe family support, aggressive behavior, and the relationship between family support and aggressive behavior among inmates who are victims of drug abuse at Class II B Muara Sabak Prison. This research employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design and survey method. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, consisting of drug-related inmates at Class II B Muara Sabak Prison who met the inclusion criteria. The instruments used were the Family Support Scale and the Aggression Behavior Scale. Data were analyzed using correlation tests. The findings revealed a significant negative correlation between family support and aggressive behavior, with a correlation coefficient of r = -0.657. This indicates that higher family support is associated with lower levels of aggressive behavior, both physical and verbal. Family support plays an important role in reducing aggressive behavior among inmates with a history of drug abuse. Correctional rehabilitation programs are recommended to strengthen family involvement in consistently providing support.
