Indonesia, as a tropical country, faces a high risk from ultraviolet (UV) radiation that can damage skin and health. This study aims to evaluate the knowledge and behavior regarding sunscreen use among students of the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality. The method used is a survey with questionnaires distributed to respondents. Results indicate that although students are aware of the importance of using sunscreen, the usage rate remains low, and many do not choose safe products. These findings highlight the need for increased knowledge about proper sunscreen selection and the dangers of UV exposure. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of further education on correct sunscreen use, as well as the necessity for outreach activities to raise awareness about skin protection from sun exposure. Thus, it is hoped that adolescents can better maintain their skin health and reduce the risk of diseases caused by excessive UV exposure.

A Critical nursing care is a process for problem solving, decision making as well as an organized and systematic approach to nursing problems. Nursing care must be carried out completely and accurately because it is the nurse's self-defense against demands as well as proof that the correct nursing care has been carried out. The research objective is to find out the description of the implementation of critical nursing care in Emergency Room of Santa Elisabeth Hospital Medan 2023. The research design used is a descriptive research design. There are two populations in this study, namely nursing actions and documentation of critical nursing care, the sampling technique used purposive sampling 51 respondents and total sampling (critical nursing care documentation) as many as 68 respondents. The data collection instrument uses observation sheets for nursing actions consisting of infusions, ECG usage and oxygen therapy, as well as critical nursing care using observation sheets consisting of assessment, diagnosis, intervention/implementation and evaluation. The results show that the infusion was according to the SOP, the use of ECG was according to the SOP and sufficient oxygen therapy is according to the SOP for 51 respondents (100%). Critical nursing care complete review 65 (96%), diagnosis quite complete 48 (71%), complete intervention/implementation 65 (96%), complete evaluation 67 (99%) and documentation of critical nursing care majority complete 65 (96%) of 68 respondents. It is expected to be able to improve the accuracy and completeness of nursing care documentation through training for each officer.

This study aims to examine the effect of the implementation of the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) in increasing business income, especially for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) approach. The method used in this study is a descriptive quantitative approach, which aims to provide an overview of the QR Code implementation. The population in this study involved MSME owners, with a sample taken from 100 respondents through non-probability sampling techniques. Data collection was done through questionnaires. Data analysis includes testing research instruments to assess data quality (validity and reliability), classical assumption test (normality), as well as multiple linear regression analysis and hypothesis testing (t test and F test). The results show that QRIS implementation and user satisfaction have a significant influence on increasing MSME income, which supports TAM theory regarding the importance of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use in technology acceptance. However, other variables, such as QRIS usage literacy, convenience of use, and QRIS service price, did not show a significant influence on MSME income. Simultaneously, these factors still have an effect on MSME income, although with different variations in influence.

The advancement of payment technology has shifted the role of cash to non-cash systems. Generation Z plays a significant role in the adoption of this technology. One of the innovations introduced by Bank Indonesia is the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS), launched on August 17, 2019, to support digital payments through server-based e-money applications, e-wallets, or mobile banking. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing QRIS usage behavior among Generation Z based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). The study employs a quantitative method involving 275 respondents collected through an online questionnaire. Data are analyzed using SmartPLS. The results show that performance expectancy, facilitating conditions, and social influence have a positive influence on QRIS usage behavior. In contrast, effort expectancy does not have an influence. These findings are expected to support strategies for increasing QRIS adoption among Generation Z.

This study aims to examine the factors affecting the use behavior of the Flip.id application using the UTAUT2 framework. The results indicate that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and social influence positively affect behavioral intention. Meanwhile, facilitating conditions and behavioral intention positively influence use behavior. The study found that facilitating conditions and performance expectancy are the strongest antecedents in this research. The findings also reveal a negative effect of hedonic motivation on behavioral intention, while price value does not influence behavioral intention to use the Flip.id application. The moderation testing of experience on facilitating conditions and hedonic motivation shows a positive relationship. However, perceived credibility does not moderate the relationship between behavioral intention and use behavior. Based on the findings, it is evident that the ease of application use, adequate facilities, usefulness, and recommendations play crucial roles in increasing behavioral intention. Conversely, emotional and financial aspects do not demonstrate significant importance for users. This study provides implications for Flip application developers to enhance functional features, user education, and other facilities that support transaction processes within the application.

In the architecture design and 3D visualization industry, rendering speed and quality are crucial factors in enhancing productivity. This study aims to compare the performance of GPU and CPU-based rendering software, focusing on three main aspects: render time, visual quality, and resource efficiency. The experiment was conducted using two leading rendering software, Corona (CPU) and Lumion GPU, with identical design objects. The results show that GPU rendering excels in render speed, although it slightly sacrifices quality detail compared to CPU rendering. Additionally, GPU is more efficient in resource usage, with lower energy consumption during longer rendering processes. Based on these findings, it is recommended that design and architecture professionals choose GPU rendering for projects that prioritize speed and time efficiency, while CPU rendering is more suitable for tasks that require higher quality and more complex details. This study provides valuable insights for the creative industry in selecting the most appropriate rendering technology to enhance their design productivity.
