One of the most important factors influencing how well students learn is their motivation to learn. Teachers must actively manage students' psychological well-being, as low motivation to learn can lead to less-than-ideal learning outcomes. In addition to imparting knowledge, teachers can also act as motivators and facilitators, fostering an emotionally and psychologically supportive learning environment. Therefore, particularly in madrasah environments that prioritize spiritual values, teachers' psychological management techniques are crucial for enhancing students' motivation to learn. The purpose of this study was to examine various psychological management techniques used by madrasah instructors to enhance students' willingness to learn. A qualitative research approach with a literature review approach was used as the methodology. Information was gathered from various sources, including books, academic journals, and related documents on learning motivation and educational psychology management. The findings revealed a number of useful tactics that educators can employ, such as developing strong emotional bonds with students, fostering a relaxed and supportive learning environment, expressing gratitude and positive reinforcement, recognizing each student's unique needs and characteristics, and incorporating spiritual values ​​into the educational process. As demonstrated by increased active engagement, learning interest, and learning outcomes, the implementation of these methods has been shown to enhance students' motivation to learn. Therefore, effective and meaningful learning is greatly influenced by the teacher's psychological management.

This study aims to examine the role of management psychology in improving work motivation in organizations through a literature study approach.

The supporting factors include clear regulations, cooperation among village officials, and community participation. Meanwhile, the inhibiting factors consist of limited human resources of village officials, low community understanding, and limited budget for empowerment programs

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Sustainable Food Crop Land (LP2B) management policy in Madiun Regency based on Regional Regulation Number 3 of 2020 and identify factors inhibiting its implementation, as well as formulate alternative solutions to strengthen the policy in supporting agricultural land sustainability and regional food security. This study uses an empirical legal method (empirical juridical) with a qualitative descriptive approach. Primary data were obtained through in-depth interviews with the Department of Agriculture, and farmers, as well as field observations, while secondary data were obtained through a study of laws and regulations and policy documents. The analysis was conducted by examining aspects of communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure in policy implementation, using triangulation techniques to ensure data validity. The results show that LP2B implementation is not optimal. The main obstacles include farmers' low understanding of legal provisions, limited human resources and budget, weak cross-sectoral coordination, and economic pressures and high land sales prices. In addition, the national target of fulfilling 87% of Raw Paddy Land adds to the complexity of implementation at the regional level. Strengthening implementation requires improving legal communication, strengthening institutional capacity, synchronizing policies with spatial planning, and a participatory approach that actively involves farmers.

The performance of health workers is an important element in ensuring the quality of primary health services. In addition to technical and structural factors, psychological aspects such as job meaningfulness and work engagement are increasingly recognized as playing a role in improving performance. Health workers who interpret their work as something of value tend to show higher work attachment, which ultimately has an impact on performance. This study aims to analyze the effect of job meaningfulness on the performance of health workers through work engagement at the Mokoau Health Center, Kendari City. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. All health workers at the Mokoau Health Center as many as 70 people were involved as respondents through the total sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method using SmartPLS version 4.0. The results of the analysis showed that job meaningfulness had a positive and significant effect on work engagement (β = 0.563; p < 0.05). Furthermore, work engagement had a positive and significant effect on the performance of health workers (β = 0.638; p < 0.05). The indirect influence test proved that work engagement significantly mediated the influence between job meaningfulness and performance (β = 0.360; p < 0.05). Job meaningfulness improves the performance of health workers through strengthening work engagement. Therefore, the HR management strategy at the Health Center needs to be directed at strengthening the meaning of work and work attachment to improve performance in a sustainable manner.

The rapid development of information technology has transformed social media into a digital space that plays a crucial role in shaping the mindset, behavior, and lifestyle of young generations. TikTok is one of the most dominant platforms used by Generation Z, particularly students, due to its ability to present algorithm-based content that aligns with user interests. This condition has the potential to cause psychological stress in the form of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), which reflects social anxiety due to the perception of being late in keeping up with trends, information, or experiences that hold a dominant position in the social landscape. This research initiative aims to examine the influence of TikTok usage on the lifestyle configurations of Generation Z students, with FOMO serving as a determinant that strengthens this relationship. This study is designed within the quantitative tradition with a positivist epistemological orientation. The study population includes 250 students from the Faculty of Computer Science at the National Pasim University in Bandung, with a sample size of 72 respondents derived using Slovin's formula. The analysis results indicate that TikTok usage and the level of FOMO have a positive and significant impact on changes in students' lifestyles. The regression coefficient estimates are in the positive direction, with a significance value exceeding the critical threshold of 0.05, indicating a unidirectional relationship between the variables. The model determination estimate, at around 57.5%, confirms that TikTok and FOMO are able to explain a significant portion of the variation in students' lifestyles, while the remainder is influenced by factors outside the scope of this study. This finding confirms that TikTok functions not only as a medium of entertainment but also as an agent shaping lifestyles influenced by social and psychological pressures. Therefore, strengthening digital literacy is crucial so that students can use social media more rationally and responsibly.

The rapid growth of short-video-based social media platforms, particularly TikTok, has significantly influenced students learning behavior and productivity. This study aims to analyze the relationship between TikTok usage and students learning productivity. A qualitative literature review method was employed by examining relevant national and international scholarly articles published between 2021 and 2026. The data were analyzed using thematic synthesis to identify consistent patterns and key factors shaping learning productivity in the context of TikTok usage. The findings reveal a consistent pattern indicating that TikTok usage exerts an ambivalent impact on students learning productivity. Excessive and entertainment oriented use is associated with decreased concentration, increased academic procrastination, and poor time management. In contrast, purposeful use of TikTok through educational content and microlearning formats contributes to higher learning motivation, academic engagement, and creativity. These effects are strongly influenced by usage objectives, duration of consumption, and students self regulation abilities. This study concludes that TikTok is not a single determinant of learning productivity but functions as an amplifier of students learning behaviors. The findings contribute to the literature on social media and education by providing a conceptual foundation for developing digital literacy and time management strategies in higher education.

This study aims to analyze the dynamics of academic and social life of students at Universitas Nasional PASIM and identify the factors affecting the balance between these two aspects. Using a qualitative method with interviews as the data collection technique, this study reveals the role of the social environment, particularly peer interactions, in supporting motivation, academic achievement, and student well-being. The findings show that a conducive campus social environment, through interaction with peers, serves as a source of emotional support and information that can enhance motivation and academic performance. Conversely, a less supportive social environment can hinder focus and decrease students' enthusiasm for learning. Students also face challenges in balancing academic demands and social life due to the heavy schedule of classes, academic tasks, organizational activities, and social engagements. The research findings indicate that time management skills and prioritization are key factors in maintaining the balance between academics and social life. The inability to manage time effectively may lead to stress and academic burnout. Overall, the study emphasizes the importance of a supportive social environment and good self-management skills in fostering academic success and student well-being.

This study uses a quantitative method with an explanatory approach to explore factors contributing to low pension literacy among workers. The sample consisted of 66 workers from both the formal and informal sectors in Jakarta in December 2025. The findings reveal that low pension literacy is not solely due to a lack of knowledge but results from various factors, including low awareness, short-term financial behavior, product complexity, inadequate education, and underutilization of digital tools. There is a mismatch between workers' perceptions and the reality of pension fund behavior. The majority of workers (86%) are unprepared for retirement, and 89% do not have a voluntary pension fund. Despite this, 80% do not rely on workplace pension funds, and 45.5% feel confident they can meet their living expenses in old age, indicating pseudo-awareness they understand the importance of pension funds but have not established one. This reveals a gap between awareness and action regarding pension funds. Improving pension literacy requires an integrated approach that combines transformative education with digitalization to facilitate access and participation. Education must drive behavioral change, while digitalization simplifies processes, enhances accessibility, and broadens financial literacy. The synergy of education, digital technology, and policy support is essential for improving workers' financial readiness for a secure retirement.

Pregnancy is a period marked by significant emotional challenges for expectant mothers, with stress and anxiety being common issues that may adversely affect maternal well-being and fetal development. The limited availability of safe treatment options for pregnant women, particularly concerning pharmacological interventions, has prompted the exploration of more natural and non-invasive therapeutic alternatives. One increasingly popular method is aromatherapy, which utilizes essential oils to stimulate the limbic system in the brain, thereby promoting relaxation and reducing anxiety. This study aims to explore the effects of aromatherapy in lowering stress and anxiety among pregnant women through a literature review. The method employed involves collecting and analyzing findings from previous studies regarding the use of aromatherapy in pregnancy. Based on the available evidence, aromatherapy—particularly with lavender essential oil—has been proven effective in lowering levels of stress and anxiety in pregnant women. Several studies report a reduction in anxiety levels of up to 40% following the inhalation of lavender oil. However, factors such as the type of essential oil used, the method of application, and individual sensitivity may influence therapeutic outcomes. Despite its potential benefits, the safety of aromatherapy use remains a concern, particularly regarding essential oils that may be unsafe for use during pregnancy.

The development of digital technology has significantly transformed consumer purchasing behavior in recent years. Shopping activities that were previously conducted in person have now shifted to e-commerce and social commerce platforms that offer greater convenience, speed, accessibility, and a variety of attractive promotions. Two platforms experiencing rapid growth in Indonesia are Shopee and TikTok Shop, both of which have gained popularity among diverse consumer segments. These platforms not only offer a wide range of products but also provide interactive shopping experiences through features such as promotions, live shopping, consumer reviews, personalized recommendations, and ease of transactions. This situation has led to notable changes in consumers' purchasing decision-making processes and preferences. Factors such as app usability, promotional strategies, consumer trust, social media influence, user engagement, and evolving digital lifestyles are becoming increasingly dominant in determining purchasing decisions. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the key factors influencing consumer purchasing decisions on the Shopee and TikTok Shop platforms in the digital era, as well as to provide deeper insights into consumer behavior in an increasingly digital marketplace.

Learning motivation is very important for students’ academic success, especially at the senior high school level. At SMA Negeri 3 Tana Toraja, there are still problems that cause low student motivation. These problems include lack of interest in learning, low self-confidence, and the use of technology mostly for entertainment purposes. This study aims to identify ways to improve students’ learning motivation through technology-based group guidance services. The research uses a library study method by collecting and analyzing scientific sources such as books and previous research journals. The results show that learning motivation is influenced by both internal and external factors. Internal factors include self-efficacy, while external factors include the fulfillment of needs for autonomy, competence, and social relatedness. Technology-based group guidance services can be an effective alternative because they combine social interaction with digital media that are familiar to students. Through discussions, sharing experiences, and the use of digital platforms, students become more active, open, and motivated in learning. Guidance and counseling teachers play an important role as facilitators in creating a supportive group dynamic. They provide positive reinforcement and help students develop self-confidence. Healthy group dynamics encourage supportive interactions, which in turn enhance students’ intrinsic motivation. Therefore, the integration of group guidance services and technology can be an effective strategy to improve students’ learning motivation and support optimal learning outcomes.

This research is motivated by the phenomenon of Izhar Majid’s election, as he successfully maintained his position as a legislative member in Jambi Province and achieved a significant victory in his constituency despite intense political competition. His success is notable because he does not come from a political family, lacks elite family connections, and was still able to maintain his voter base after switching political parties. This condition raises questions about how he utilized political capital to gain public support. The study aims to analyze the forms, strategies, and utilization of political capital in winning political contests. Using political capital theory, this descriptive qualitative research collected primary data through interviews and secondary data from documentation, literature, and official election results. The findings show that his success was driven by the optimization of integrated political capital. Social capital was built through strong networks with community leaders and voter groups. Symbolic capital emerged from his positive image and reputation. Economic capital supported structured campaign activities. Combined with direct public engagement and targeted communication media, these factors significantly increased his visibility and electability.

This study aims to analyze the protection of victims of sexual violence crimes from a victimology perspective within Indonesian criminal law. This research employs a normative legal method with a qualitative approach, utilizing statutory and conceptual approaches. Data were collected through library research based on legislation and recent scientific journals published between 2021 and 2026. The results indicate that, normatively, Indonesia has established a relatively strong legal framework, particularly with the enactment of Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning Sexual Violence Crimes. However, its implementation remains constrained by several challenges, including limited capacity of law enforcement officials, weak inter-institutional coordination, and structural and cultural factors such as patriarchal culture and victim blaming practices. Furthermore, victims are still at risk of experiencing revictimization during the criminal justice process. From a victimology perspective, this condition reflects that the Indonesian criminal justice system is still in a transitional phase toward victim-oriented justice. Therefore, strengthening the victimological approach through comprehensive legal reform, enhancing the professionalism of law enforcement officers, and transforming legal culture in society are essential to ensure effective and substantive justice for victims.
