Indonesia, as a tropical country, is exposed to high levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, increasing the risk of skin damage. Sunscreen is widely used as a protective measure indicated by the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) value. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of active ingredient variations on SPF values and other influencing factors. A literature review with a descriptive-comparative approach was conducted using research articles published between 2021 and 2026 from Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Elsevier. A total of seven eligible articles were analyzed. The results showed that the type of active ingredients, concentration, combination of ingredients, and dosage form significantly influence SPF values. Natural ingredients generally produce low to moderate SPF values, while combinations of active ingredients result in significantly higher SPF due to synergistic effects. Increasing the concentration of active ingredients also leads to higher SPF values. Additionally, dosage forms such as creams, serums, sunscreen powder and foundations affect sunscreen effectiveness through their film-forming ability on the skin. In conclusion, the combination of active ingredients and higher concentrations provides more optimal protection against UV radiation.

This study aims to enhance the academic synergy of the Quranic Studies and Exegesis Program at IAIN Sultan Amai Gorontalo in supporting Quranic literacy mentoring activities for coastal communities in Oluhuta Village, Bone Bolango Regency. The study is motivated by the low level of Quranic literacy in coastal areas, which is influenced by limited access to religious education and a shortage of competent mentors. This condition is further exacerbated by the fact that most residents of Oluhuta Village are fishermen who spend much of their lives at sea, limiting opportunities for structured learning. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study explores the role of lecturers and students from the Quranic Studies and Exegesis Department in planning, implementing, and evaluating a mentoring program aimed at strengthening basic skills in reading and writing the Quran. The findings show that interdisciplinary academic synergy, particularly in tajwid, tahsin, and Quranic teaching methodologies, significantly improves participants’ Quranic literacy skills. In addition, the program strengthens the relationship between Islamic higher education institutions, particularly IAIN Sultan Amai Gorontalo, and the surrounding community. It also serves as a medium for implementing academic integration and community service values. This study recommends the development of an integrated and context-based Quranic mentoring model for similar coastal communities in other regions.

This study was conducted with the aim of explaining the influence of the project based learning model assisted by four square on the ability to write argumentative texts of class XI students of SMA Negeri 12 Semarang and its implications in learning to write. The method used in this study is a quantitative quasi-experimental approach with the nonequivalent posttest-only control group design. This design was chosen to determine the difference in the ability to write argumentative texts between students taught using the project based learning model assisted by four square and students taught with ordinary or conventional learning models. The results of the study showed that there was an influence of the project based learning model assisted by four square on students' argumentative text writing skills through the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test of 115.500, a Z value of -4.973, and a significance value (Asymp. Sig. 2-tailed) of <0.001. Because the significance is smaller than 0.05, the null hypothesis (H₀) is rejected. It can be said that there was a significant difference between the results of the argumentative text writing test of students in the experimental class and the control class. Based on this, the application of the project based learning model assisted by four square can be used as an alternative learning model that has a positive influence on the ability to write argumentative texts of class XI students and has implications for writing learning.

Dysmenorrhea remains a common health problem among adolescent girls and may interfere with their daily activities. This condition is not only associated with hormonal factors but is also influenced by dietary intake patterns and body fat distribution. This study employed an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach involving 207 adolescent girls selected using a stratified random sampling technique. Data collection was conducted using several instruments, including a Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) to assess magnesium intake, waist-to-hip ratio (WHR/RLPP) measurements using a measuring tape, and menstrual pain intensity assessed using a pain scale. The relationships between variables were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test with a significance level of p < 0.05. The results showed that magnesium intake demonstrated a significant inverse relationship with pain intensity, indicating that higher magnesium intake was associated with lower menstrual pain levels. In addition, WHR was also significantly associated with dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls. Overall, it can be concluded that magnesium intake and WHR are related to the occurrence of dysmenorrhea.

The increasingly tight competition in the textile and garment industry has led to the optimal management of capital structure and microfinance to increase the value of the company. This study aims to analyze the influence of microfinance and capital structure on the value of the company with profitability as an intervening variable. The method used is a quantitative method with secondary data obtained from the financial reports of textile and garment companies registered in the Indonesian Financial Services Authority for the period 2020–2024. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equivalence Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). The results of the study indicate that microfinance has a positive and significant effect on profitability and firm value. Meanwhile, capital structure has a positive but insignificant effect on profitability and a negative and insignificant effect on firm value. Profitability is proven to have a positive and significant effect on firm value, but is unable to mediate the influence of microfinance and capital structure on firm value. Thus, the findings of this study confirm that profitability fails to be an integrating variable.

Taxpayer compliance is a crucial factor in optimizing state revenue to support national development financing independently. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of taxpayer compliance in Indonesia by examining two main aspects: individual awareness and the effectiveness of the tax system. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with a literature review of various national journals from the last five years. The findings indicate that taxpayer compliance is influenced not only by internal factors such as knowledge, awareness, and tax morale but also by external factors such as tax service quality, system digitalization, and regulatory complexity. Tax reforms and the implementation of digital systems such as e-filing and e-billing have been proven to significantly increase taxpayer compliance through ease of access and reporting efficiency. However, real challenges remain, such as low community tax literacy and perceptions of unfairness regarding the management of tax funds by the government. Therefore, a strong synergy is needed between increasing public awareness through continuous education and improving the taxation system to create sustainable and optimal compliance. Improving transparency and accountability in the management of tax funds is a strategic step to strengthen public trust in tax authorities in Indonesia.

Tax awareness among the young generation is a crucial issue in national economic development, as taxes are the primary source of state revenue. This study aims to analyze the relationship between tax education and young people's perceptions of state obligations in shaping tax awareness. The method used is a literature review (library research) by analyzing various national scientific journals from the last five years. Results indicate that tax awareness among young people is still relatively low, although digital-based education has shown positive improvements. Perceptions of taxes as a state obligation are strongly influenced by knowledge, trust in government, and tax service quality. Interactive and technology-based education has proven effective in improving understanding and positive attitudes toward taxes. Therefore, synergy between government, educational institutions, and digital media is urgently needed to enhance tax literacy from an early age to ensure future fiscal sustainability.

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence cognitive development and the role of learning motivation in the learning process of teacher training students. Using a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design, this study involved 120 students from four study programs at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) Galuh University, selected by purposive sampling from active students who regularly participate in lectures. The instruments used were a cognitive development questionnaire based on Piaget's theory and Bloom's taxonomy, and a learning motivation questionnaire with a Likert scale of 1–5. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and simple and multiple linear regression. The results showed that cognitive development (β = 0.43, p < 0.01) and learning motivation (β = 0.37, p < 0.05) each had a significant influence on student achievement. A strong positive correlation between the two variables indicates a mutually supportive relationship. Academic environmental factors, independent learning strategies, and lecturer support were identified as the main drivers of cognitive development. These findings emphasize the need for higher education to integrate learning approaches that address students' cognitive development while simultaneously fostering intrinsic motivation to improve learning quality and future professional readiness.
