Teenage pregnancy remains a reproductive health issue in Indonesia, including in Batam City. According to data from the Batam City Health Office in 2024, there were 18 cases of teenage pregnancy (0.06%) with the Lubuk Baja Health Center being one of the highest areas. Pregnant teenagers are at high risk of complications such as anemia, malnutrition, and low birth weight (LBW), which contribute to high rates of maternal and infant morbidity. This study used a descriptive method with a case study approach on Ny. S, an 18-year-old teenager with a pregnancy in the Lubuk Baja Health Center area of Batam City in 2025. Data collection was conducted through interviews, observations, physical examinations, and SOAP documentation following the 7-step Varney obstetric management. The findings revealed that Ny. S experienced mild complaints such as nausea, reduced appetite, and anxiety about her pregnancy. After three visits, the mother's complaints decreased, appetite improved, anxiety decreased, and nutritional status was within normal limits. Comprehensive midwifery care with a biopsychosocial approach was proven effective in improving both the physical and mental health of pregnant teenagers and preventing pregnancy complications.

Indonesia continues to face a significant burden of stunting that seriously impacts human resource quality and national development. Stunting is defined as a condition of chronic linear growth failure in children under five years, characterized by height-for-age below minus two standard deviations (−2 SD) from the WHO Child Growth Standards median, resulting from prolonged nutritional deficiency during the first 1,000 days of life. Indonesia's national stunting prevalence in 2022 remained at 21.6%, far from the 2024 national target of 14%. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of pregnant mothers and mothers with toddlers regarding the definition, causative factors, impacts, and prevention strategies of stunting in Banyumas Village, Stabat District, Langkat Regency, in 2025. A community-based participatory intervention approach with a pre-post single group design was employed, incorporating interactive health counseling, group discussion sessions, anthropometric examination of toddlers, and pre-test and post-test knowledge assessments using a validated questionnaire. Participants consisted of 21 pregnant mothers and mothers with toddlers, with 7 toddlers undergoing anthropometric examination. Results demonstrated a significant increase in the mean knowledge score from 55.24 (pre-test) to 82.38 (post-test), reflecting an improvement of 27.14 points. Anthropometric examination identified 1 out of 7 toddlers (14.3%) as having poor nutritional status based on the height-for-age index. Beyond measurable knowledge gains, the activity successfully promoted perceptual change among participants, fostered the active role of local health cadres as community change agents, and cultivated collective awareness regarding the importance of multi-stakeholder collaboration in stunting prevention efforts. It is recommended that posyandu cadres actively sustain the 1,000 HPK counseling program on a continuous basis, and that the institution develop more comprehensive follow-up community service programs in the target area.

The proliferation of cloud infrastructures has intensified concerns regarding data security, integrity, identity and access management, and user privacy. Despite recent advances, existing solutions often lack comprehensive integration of privacy-preserving mechanisms, dynamic trust management, and cross-provider interoperability. This study proposes an AI-enabled, zero-trust, blockchain-fused identity management framework for secure, privacy-preserving multi-cloud environments. The framework integrates homomorphic encryption with differential privacy for aggregate-level protection and secure multi-party computation for collaborative data processing. The proposed system was validated in a simulated multi-cloud environment using CloudSim, Ethereum blockchain, and AWS EC2. Experimental results indicate homomorphic encryption latency of approximately 450ms per operation and statistically significant security improvements (t(128) = 12.47, p < 0.001), privacy (t(95) = 8.93, p < 0.001), and throughput (t(156) = 15.21, p < 0.001). The framework achieved differential privacy with ε = 0.1 while retaining 99.2% data utility, and demonstrated a 34% improvement in processing speed over conventional differential privacy approaches. In addition, the implementation was observed to be 2.3× faster than BGV-based configurations, with 45% lower memory consumption than CKKS and a 67% reduction in ciphertext size relative to baseline implementations. From an operational perspective, the framework shows a 23% reduction in security management costs, a 31% improvement in resource utilization efficiency, and an 18% decrease in compliance audit expenses. The model further indicates a 27% reduction in total cost of ownership (TCO) compared with multi-vendor security solutions, a projected return on investment (ROI) within 14 months, and an 89% reduction in security incident response costs under the evaluated conditions.

This study examines the factors influencing the phenomenon of quiet quitting in the context of contemporary organizations by reviewing empirical evidence published between 2021–2024. Quiet quitting refers to the psychological withdrawal of employees who remain formally employed but consciously limit their work involvement to the minimum required by the contract without any explicit intention to quit. Although this phenomenon has been widely discussed in academic literature, much of the research still examines quiet quitting in a fragmented way, lacking a comprehensive theoretical framework. This study adopts a systematic review approach following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, analyzing eight empirical articles indexed in Scopus and Google Scholar. The findings indicate that quiet quitting is influenced by individual factors such as burnout, emotional exhaustion, reduced job satisfaction, and low work engagement. Organizational factors include psychological contract violations, low perceived organizational support, unsupportive leadership styles, excessive workload, and an exclusive work culture. The findings can be understood within the Job Demands–Resources framework, where the imbalance between work demands and organizational resources triggers disengagement. This study contributes theoretically by integrating empirical findings into a more cohesive conceptual framework and provides practical implications for human resource management aimed at improving engagement and organizational sustainability.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of narcotics rehabilitation for offenders who reoffend after undergoing rehabilitation, using a case study at the Bukittinggi Police Resort (Polresta Bukittinggi) and rehabilitation institutions. This research is motivated by the continued occurrence of narcotics offenders who relapse into criminal behavior despite having completed medical and social rehabilitation programs as mandated by Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics. The research method used is empirical juridical with a qualitative approach through interviews, literature review, and case documentation. Primary data were obtained from investigators at Polresta Bukittinggi and rehabilitation institutions, while secondary data were obtained from laws and regulations as well as relevant literature. The results indicate that the investigation process leading to rehabilitation has been conducted in accordance with applicable procedures through assessment mechanisms by the Integrated Assessment Team (Tim Asesmen Terpadu). However, the effectiveness of rehabilitation in preventing recidivism remains suboptimal, as evidenced by offenders who return to narcotics abuse after completing rehabilitation programs. This suggests that rehabilitation programs require continuous supervision and more comprehensive approaches, including medical, psychological, and social aspects, to minimize the risk of relapse among former narcotics abusers.

This study presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of four traditional machine learning algorithms Decision Tree, Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Support Vector Machine for Android malware detection using the preprocessed TUANDROMD dataset comprising 4,465 instances and 241 features representing both static and dynamic application characteristics. Motivated by the limitations of conventional signature-based and hybrid detection methods, especially in managing imbalanced datasets and detecting emerging malware variants, the study employed SMOTE to ensure balanced training data and fair model evaluation. The dataset was divided into 80% training and 20% testing subsets, and models were assessed using key performance metrics including accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and ROC AUC. The findings revealed that the proposed Random Forest model outperformed the other classifiers, achieving an accuracy of 0.993, precision of 0.992, recall of 1.000, F1-score of 0.996, and a near-perfect ROC AUC of 0.9998 surpassing state-of-the-art approaches. These results affirm the superior predictive capability, consistency, and robustness of the Random Forest algorithm in Android malware detection. The study concludes that base models, when integrated with class-balancing techniques, provide reliable and efficient malware detection across imbalanced datasets. For future research, the study recommends exploring advanced hybrid or ensemble frameworks that integrate Random Forest with deep learning architectures or other meta-heuristic optimization techniques to further enhance detection accuracy, adaptability, and resilience against rapidly evolving Android malware threats.

This study comprehensively analyzes the impact of sectarian conflict on mental health in Kirkuk through an ethnoreligious meta-analysis of 42 studies with a total of N=15,427 participants published between 2003 and 2023. The quantitative synthesis indicates a PTSD prevalence of 47.3% (95% CI: 44.2–50.4) among victims of sectarian conflict, with an uneven distribution across groups, where the Turkmen minority records the highest prevalence at 56.8%, exceeding Arab Sunni at 43.2% and Kurdish at 41.5%. Logistic regression analysis demonstrates that direct exposure to sectarian violence increases the risk of major depression by 3.4 times (OR=3.42, p<.001), anxiety by 2.8 times (OR=2.83, p<.001), and psychosomatic disorders by 2.5 times (OR=2.54, p<.001). Further meta-regression identifies duration of conflict exposure (β=.426, p<.001) and intensity of sectarian violence (β=.389, p<.001) as significant predictors of symptom severity. In contrast to the findings of Cummings et al. (2013) and Eltally (2019), which emphasize the general impact of conflict, this study reveals specific intergenerational trauma patterns within distinct ethnoreligious communities, with the highest transmission observed among families of sectarian massacre victims (d=0.82), while simultaneously highlighting variations in communal resilience across groups as a differential determinant of post-conflict psychosocial dynamics.

This study examines the juridical aspects of guardianship applications by parents to obtain permission to sell a minor’s inherited land and analyzes the judicial considerations in Decision Number 199/Pdt.P/2025/PN Blt. The research employs an empirical juridical method with a sociological legal approach. Primary data were collected through interviews and case documents at the Blitar District Court, while secondary data consist of statutes, doctrine, and related literature. Qualitative-descriptive analysis was applied to interpret the findings. The study reveals that the guardianship application process involves both administrative and judicial stages. Judges scrutinize material evidence and the probity of sale objectives, weighing important principles such as utility, legal certainty, fairness, and justice. Guardians are granted limited authority to sell a minor’s property only if it can be proven to be in the child's best interest and legal protections are assured. Recommendations include strengthening post-decision monitoring, enhancing legal outreach, improving procedural transparency, and ensuring comprehensive implementation.

This study aims to analyze the strategies of tahfidz teachers in improving students’ Qur’anic memorization quality through a literature review approach. Memorization quality is not merely measured by the quantity of verses memorized, but also includes accuracy of recitation, fluency, consistency in muroja’ah (revision), and long-term memory retention. This research employed a literature review method by examining national and international journal articles as well as relevant academic books published between 2020 and 2025. Data were analyzed using content analysis techniques to identify themes, patterns, and research gaps related to teachers’ strategies in tahfidz learning. The findings reveal that effective tahfidz teaching strategies can be classified into four main aspects: (1) structured and consistent implementation of repetition (tikrar), (2) reinforcement of muroja’ah and periodic evaluation, (3) motivational strategies and character development, and (4) innovative learning approaches integrating collaboration and educational technology. The tikrar method is proven effective in strengthening memorization retention when supported by systematic program planning. Furthermore, intrinsic motivation, a conducive learning environment, and varied instructional methods significantly contribute to maintaining students’ memorization stability. In conclusion, improving the quality of Qur’anic memorization depends not only on repetition frequency but also on the integration of pedagogical strategies, affective-spiritual approaches, and instructional innovation. This study provides a conceptual contribution to the development of more comprehensive and sustainable tahfidz learning strategies.

The maritime education sector faces complex challenges in preparing competent seafarers amid the rapid advancement of digital technology. This study investigates the effect of artificial intelligence-based simulations and AI-based competency assessments on competency achievement levels among nautical cadets at Indonesian maritime training institutions.

Efforts to protect children in conflict with the law constitute a concrete manifestation of the state’s responsibility in implementing the principles of restorative justice. This study aims to comprehensively examine the implementation process of diversion at the Pengadilan Negeri Bukittinggi and to assess the extent to which its application achieves the primary objective of the juvenile criminal justice system, namely restoring the child’s social condition without emphasizing retribution. This research employs an empirical juridical approach by combining literature review and field research through interviews with judges, court clerks, and other relevant parties. The findings indicate that the implementation of diversion at the Pengadilan Negeri Bukittinggi has been carried out in accordance with Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. The diversion process is conducted through deliberation involving the offender, the victim, their respective families, and supporting institutions under the guidance of a diversion facilitator. However, several challenges remain, including limited public understanding of the importance of restorative-based settlement, insufficient human resources with adequate competence in implementing diversion, and frequent failures in reaching agreements between offenders and victims. This study concludes that diversion in court proceedings is not merely a legal obligation but also an essential instrument in creating a more humane child-oriented justice system. Therefore, enhancing the competence of law enforcement officers and strengthening inter-agency coordination are necessary to support the sustainable success of diversion.

This study aims to: 1) describe the classical interpretation of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9, particularly the concept of protecting descendants (khaufu 'ala al-dzurriyah); 2) explain the moral message of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9 regarding parental responsibility through Abdullah Saeed's contextual hermeneutical framework; 3) demonstrate how a reinterpretation of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9 can provide a new, more positive, and more balanced perspective on the childfree phenomenon in contemporary society. This research adopts a qualitative method grounded in library research. The data sources include classical and contemporary tafsir works, the writings of Abdullah Saeed, thematic literature on family studies, and academic references discussing the modern emergence of the childfree phenomenon. The analysis applies a contextual hermeneutical approach that emphasizes reading the Qur'anic verse through its historical setting, universal moral values, and relevance to contemporary social realities. This approach enables an integrated understanding between the fundamental message of the verse and present-day ethical challenges. The findings reveal that classical interpretations of QS. An-Nisa' [4]:9 focuses on the protection of orphans and the obligation to prevent descendants from falling into states of weakness. The moral message of the verse, viewed through Abdullah Saeed's framework, directs attention to the heavy moral responsibility of raising children, which requires comprehensive readiness. The reinterpretation of the verse highlights that the childfree choice does not inherently conflict with Islamic values, as this decision may arise from moral responsibility to avoid producing descendants who may be at risk of weakness, as warned in the verse. This perspective encourages society to view childfree choices more positively and aligns them with the Qur'anic objective of safeguarding the well-being and strength of future generations.

The rapid development of e-commerce has significantly increased the participation of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the digital economy, particularly through the use of pre-order transaction schemes. Although Indonesia has established a relatively comprehensive legal framework for consumer protection and electronic transactions, pre-order transactions involving MSME products remain highly vulnerable to fraud. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of legal regulation and implementation of consumer protection in pre-order transactions conducted through e-commerce platforms, to identify legal, institutional, and social factors contributing to consumer vulnerability, and to examine the role of the state and e-commerce platform providers in strengthening consumer protection as a public policy. This research employs a normative legal research method with a prescriptive-analytical character, utilizing statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. The findings reveal that existing consumer protection mechanisms remain partial and predominantly reactive, as they do not specifically accommodate the inherent risks of pre-order transactions nor are they supported by preventive supervision and enforcement mechanisms. Consumer vulnerability arises from the interaction between regulatory gaps, institutional limitations, and social conditions such as information asymmetry and low legal and digital literacy. Accordingly, this study emphasizes the necessity of a synergistic role between the state and e-commerce platforms in developing and implementing consumer protection policies oriented toward substantive justice and fraud prevention in the digital economy.

UMKM Kerupuk Subur is one of the SMEs quite well-known for its cracker products and is located at Jl. Gedongkuning Gg. Nuri No.66, RT.2/RW.33, Wonocatur, Banguntapan, Bantul Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta. Product packaging is one of the important factors in maintaining the quality of the crackers to keep them crispy and not easily soggy. Currently, UMKM Kerupuk Subur still uses ordinary plastic packaging that is only tied with a string, so its protection against physical damage and product quality deterioration is still limited. Besides functioning as a protector, product packaging also serves as a consumer attraction that can influence purchasing decisions. In 2024, UMKM Kerupuk Subur experienced a production and sales decline of 4.58 percent, which is suspected to be influenced by packaging factors. This study aims to develop Kerupuk Subur packaging based on customer criteria and needs. The Green Quality Function Deployment approach is used to obtain comprehensive information in designing packaging according to consumer needs and preferences. The results of identifying consumer needs show priorities such as packaging that is easy to open, resealable, transparent, environmentally friendly, durable, and tear-resistant. Based on these needs, packaging development alternatives were designed, including an easy-open system, durable and tear-resistant packaging, and resealable packaging to maintain product quality and crispness. Then, testing was conducted with 50 respondents to assess consumer satisfaction. The level of consumer satisfaction falls into the satisfied category, with an average score of 4.18, where 80% of respondents stated they were satisfied or very satisfied with the designed packaging prototype.

Gethsemane Salatiga website using Jakob Nielsen’s heuristic evaluation method combined with a triangulation approach. The evaluation involved 20 respondents, consisting of 7 UI/UX experts and 13 general users and guests, who assessed the website based on Nielsen’s ten heuristic principles, including visibility of system status, match between system and the real world, user control and freedom, consistency and standards, error prevention, recognition rather than recall, flexibility and efficiency of use, aesthetic and minimalist design, error recovery, and help and documentation. To minimize potential bias, the study integrated heuristic evaluation with user context analysis and empirical validation through usability testing, thereby providing a more comprehensive assessment. The results indicate that the overall UI/UX quality of the website is relatively good, with average scores ranging from 3 to 4 on a 5-point scale. Most identified issues fall within minor to moderate severity levels, with no critical problems affecting core functionalities. Consistency and standards received the highest average score (4.0), while alignment with user expectations and visual comfort still need improvement. Recommendations include enhancing system feedback, strengthening error prevention mechanisms, and improving help and documentation features. The differences in assessments between expert and non-expert respondents highlight the importance of professional evaluation in identifying usability issues. This study contributes to the refinement of a more reliable and contextually relevant UI/UX evaluation framework, particularly within the hospitality and tourism sector.

This research investigates intelligent cooling system design for main ship engines operating in tropical waters, integrating advanced machinery engineering with human factors to address thermal management challenges affecting engine performance, reliability, and crew operational effectiveness. Tropical maritime environments impose severe cooling demands through elevated seawater temperatures (28-32°C), high ambient conditions (28-35°C), and accelerated biofouling, reducing conventional cooling system effectiveness by 15-25% while increasing maintenance burdens and operational risks. Through qualitative analysis involving marine engineers, chief engineers with tropical operational experience, cooling system manufacturers, naval architects, automation specialists, and maritime training institutions, this study examines how intelligent cooling systems incorporating variable-speed pumps, adaptive control algorithms, predictive maintenance, and crew-centered interfaces can optimize thermal management while supporting effective human-machine collaboration. Results demonstrate that intelligent systems can reduce cooling energy consumption by 20-35%, improve temperature stability by 50-65%, extend maintenance intervals by 40-80%, and enhance crew situational awareness through intuitive monitoring interfaces, while requiring comprehensive training programs developing technical understanding and operational competencies. Key implementation challenges include control system complexity, sensor reliability in harsh marine environments, integration with existing engine management platforms, crew competency development requirements, and lifecycle cost justification. Findings reveal that successful intelligent cooling system implementation requires holistic sociotechnical approach addressing machinery engineering optimization, automation technology deployment, and human capability development through coordinated design and training strategies. This research contributes to marine engineering literature by providing integrated frameworks for intelligent system design incorporating machinery performance, automation capabilities, and human factors supporting operational excellence in tropical maritime operations.
