Hypertension remains a major health problem with high prevalence, often linked to poor lifestyle habits and low self-efficacy in managing one’s health. Effective hypertension management requires not only support from health professionals but also encouragement from family members who can remind patients to adhere to treatment and provide emotional support. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between self-efficacy, lifestyle, and family support with hypertension among Prolanis members in the working area of Puskesmas Oesapa, Kupang City. Using an observational analytical approach with a cross-sectional design, the study involved 65 hypertensive Prolanis members selected through simple random sampling. Data collection was conducted using a structured questionnaire. The findings showed significant relationships between self-efficacy, physical activity, and diet with hypertension status (p-value = 0.000). However, resting habits were not significantly associated with hypertension (p-value = 0.063), and family support also showed no significant relationship (p-value = 0.388). The study recommends that the Puskesmas continue to strengthen Prolanis activities and enhance health education, particularly regarding the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle through proper dietary management and regular light physical activity tailored to the abilities of Prolanis members.

Cases of sexual violence are rife in educational environments and generally happen to women. Ironically, 55% of sexual violence perpetrators are committed by teachers, in fact many cases are still unreported. Preventing sexual violence is a shared responsibility. This study aims to determine the conditions, impacts and strategies that can be used to prevent sexual violence. A qualitative analytical approach with secondary data in the form of interviews broadcast via the Narasi TV and YouTube websites (Crime Lab, COKRO TV, KAWANUATV MANADO, Tribun Health, UNPAR OFFICIAL) was used in this research. The impacts felt by victims of sexual violence include feeling afraid, embarrassed, depressed, traumatized and low self-esteem. Strategies that can be implemented include promoting social norms, implementing social emotional learning related to sexual violence, forming a task force, mentoring support in the form of counseling and medical services as well as parental supervision and assistance. Mutual cooperation and synergy need to be carried out together to create a school environment that is safe and comfortable for students and free from sexual violence.

The culture produced in the cultural industry has shifted from merely possessing artistic value to prioritizing economic value. One strategic element that can be utilized to support the development of the cultural industry is the organization of events. Event management plays a strategic role in the cultural industry, ensuring the successful transformation of cultural ideas into real experiences that have economic value while strengthening social meaning. Cultural events often serve as platforms to showcase local cultural heritage, traditions, and creativity to a wider audience, both domestically and internationally. This study examines the influence of the event on enhancing perceptions of the cultural sector using a quantitative methodology. The sample used in this study was 70 respondents. Data collection was carried out by asking respondents to complete a questionnaire relating to their experience attending the cultural event and their assessment of the image as a cultural tourism destination. SPSS was used to examine the information collected from the questionnaire. The results show that the Event variable has a significant influence on the Cognitive Image (CK), Affective Image (CA), and Overall Image (CO) of the destination. The t-test shows that the relationship between Event and the three image dimensions has a p-value <0.05, which indicates a strong and significant influence. Events designed with informative, emotional, and interactive aspects in mind will significantly contribute to the formation of the overall image. In a practical context, the implication is that event organizers need to ensure the quality of the holistic experience to continuously strengthen the overall image.

Deep learning has become a key discourse in educational reform across various levels, from elementary schools to higher education institutions. This article aims to examine deep learning from the perspective of philosophy of education, focusing on three central dimensions: existence, ethics, and epistemology. This research employs a qualitative approach using philosophical and phenomenological analysis of data from the socialization programs of deep learning currently being implemented in several educational institutions in Indonesia. The findings reveal that deep learning represents an educational approach that is mindful (conscious and reflective), meaningful (contextual and purposeful), and joyful (relational and emotionally engaging). These three characteristics are rooted in a strong philosophical foundation, which can serve as a basis for developing more humanistic and transformative curricula and educational practices. Additionally, deep learning encourages learners to develop critical consciousness and cultivate their autonomy in the learning process. 

This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to examine how key dimensions of digital service quality—namely system quality, ease of use, perceived value, and payment availability—shape customer loyalty among Generation Z culinary consumers, with customer satisfaction functioning as the mediating variable. Bibliometric mapping reveals that previous studies have predominantly focused on Millennials and Gen Y and have emphasized traditional service quality rather than digital service performance, indicating a significant research gap in Gen Z–specific digital consumption behavior. The SLR findings show that fast, secure, stable, and user-friendly digital systems strongly influence perceived value and user satisfaction, while the availability of digital payments such as QRIS and e-wallets enhances seamless transactional experiences. Customer satisfaction emerges as the primary psychological mechanism mediating the relationship between digital service quality and Gen Z loyalty, reflected in repeat purchases, positive word of mouth, and emotional attachment to digital culinary platforms. This study contributes theoretically by addressing existing research gaps and proposing a conceptual model of Gen Z loyalty grounded in digital experience.

This community service addresses the critical struggle of students at SMP Taruna Islam Al-Kautsar (SMP TI Al-Kautsar) to understand the major psychological and emotional changes during adolescence. This lack of clarity often led to confusion and challenges in self-adjustment, pointing out a significant gap in the school's existing guidance support. The main goal was to solve this by creating and implementing an Integrative Mentoring Model (IMM). This model directly explained their developmental stages using three key psychological frameworks: Kohnstamm, Oswald Kroh, and Jean Piaget. We followed a hands-on Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, where 50 adolescent students actively joined six specialized, interactive workshops and group coaching sessions over two weeks. The activity showed clear success, as students displayed much stronger self-awareness regarding their cognitive and emotional growth after the program. They reported increased confidence and began using the developmental theories to better understand their peers and manage their own changes. The IMM effectively translated complex academic concepts into practical life knowledge. This success confirms the IMM as a valuable, theory-backed framework for enhancing student well-being and adaptation in other religious educational settings.

This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to assist students of Madrasah Tsanawiyah Shirojut Thalibin in understanding the adolescent development period through the perspectives of Aristotle, Comenius, and Charlotte Bühler. The mentoring was motivated by the complexity of physical, emotional, social, and spiritual changes during adolescence and the low interest of students in studying the stages of human development. The activity was carried out for one week through educational, interactive, and collaborative strategies, using participatory discussion methods, theoretical explanations contextualized with the realities of adolescent life, varied learning media, role simulations, and joint evaluation and reflection. The subjects of the activity were students of MTs Sirajut Thalibin Racek Village, Tiris District, Probolinggo. The results of the mentoring showed an increase in students' understanding of the stages of adolescent development, a higher awareness of maintaining physical and mental health, and a better ability to link personal changes with developmental tasks and life goals. Teachers and the madrasah also experienced positive impacts in the form of strengthened understanding of adolescent characteristics and adjustments to a more holistic learning approach. This activity produces scientific articles, activity documentation, and student work products, while also recommending the integration of human development material in learning and guidance programs to support the moral, intellectual, social, and spiritual development of adolescents.

This  study explores the motivational factors that encourage students from Kudus who are studying at UIN Walisongo Semarang to join KMKS (Keluarga Mahasiswa Kudus Semarang), a regional student community that serves as a social and emotional support system for migrant students. Increased mobility in higher education often places migrant students in situations requiring significant academic, social, and cultural adjustment, making social support and a sense of belonging critical. Guided by McClelland’s theory of needs, this research aims to identify how the need for achievement, affiliation, and power is reflected in students’ experiences as members of KMKS. This study employs a qualitative phenomenological approach involving five participants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that students primarily join KMKS to fulfill strong affiliative needs, such as seeking social connectedness, emotional comfort, familiarity, and a supportive environment among peers from the same region. Additionally, participation in KMKS contributes to personal development, including increased confidence, improved communication skills, and readiness to take organizational responsibilities. The needs for achievement and power appear indirectly through involvement in committees, leadership roles, and contributions to organizational development. KMKS also functions as a crucial coping resource, helping students reduce stress, loneliness, and adaptation difficulties. The implications of this study highlight the importance of regional student communities as a meaningful support system for migrant students, emphasizing their role in facilitating adaptation, strengthening social identity, and fostering personal growth.

These programs have been proven to increase reading motivation, the ability to understand texts, confidence in communication, technology awareness, and the ability to innovate. An inclusive and collaborative learning environment allows participants to explore knowledge, work together, and optimize their potential. These findings confirm that TBM not only functions as a provider of reading materials, but also as a community-based education center that provides meaningful learning experiences outside the formal education system. The implications of the research emphasize the importance of strengthening collaboration, developing sustainable programs, and improving resources and infrastructure to maximize the role of TBM in community empowerment.

Early childhood education is an important foundation in character building, because the golden age is a period when physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional development occurs very rapidly, requiring planned and continuous stimulation. One effort that can be made is through the implementation of G7KAIH activities, which is a program of seven positive habits designed to instill the values of independence, discipline, cooperation, cleanliness, and responsibility from an early age. This study aims to describe the implementation of G7KAIH as a strategy for character development in early childhood at Sartika Kindergarten. The method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques in the form of semi-structured interviews with teachers directly involved in the program implementation. The results show that G7KAIH has been integrated into daily routines, although it is still in its early stages and does not yet have standard operating procedures. The children's responses varied; some were enthusiastic, but others still needed guidance due to differences in their social-emotional development. The obstacles that arose were related to the children's understanding and the limitations of the implementation guidelines, but these could be overcome through motivation and a variety of activities. Overall, G7KAIH made a positive contribution, especially to the children's independence and discipline.

This Community Service Program (PKM) was conducted to address work-related stress experienced by partner institutions amid economic uncertainty and rapid digital transformation, particularly in the era of artificial intelligence (AI). The main issues identified included role ambiguity, job insecurity, and increasing demands for competency adaptation, which contribute to psychological stress, emotional exhaustion, reduced well-being, and declining work effectiveness. To respond to these challenges, the implementation team organized educational activities in the form of seminars and interactive sharing sessions titled “Thriving at Work in the AI Era: The Dynamics of Work Stress.” The program aimed to enhance participants’ understanding, awareness, and skills in identifying sources of work stress and applying adaptive stress management strategies. A participatory education method was applied, beginning with a pre-test and concluding with a post-test to assess changes in participants’ knowledge. The results showed a notable improvement in understanding, as reflected by a decrease in incorrect responses from 27.2% to 10.8% and an increase in correct responses from 72.8% to 89.2%. The implementation process consisted of three stages: preparation (team coordination, partner needs analysis, material development, and technical preparation), implementation (delivery of materials and interactive discussions), and evaluation and reporting. The mandatory outputs of this program include a PKM report and the publication of an article in a community service journal. Additional outputs involve dissemination through mass media and the development of a booklet intended for Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) registration.

This study examines the phenomenon of code-mixing among Generation Z in Banjarmasin, particularly in The comments section of TikTok content, which has become a primary digital expression space for young People. The aim of this study was to identify the forms, patterns, and social and cultural factors underlying This linguistic practice. Using descriptive qualitative methods with listening and note-taking techniques, Information was collected from comments on two TikTok posts on the accounts @BudRab and @Fazarbungaz. The findings indicate that the code-mixing that occurred was dominated by the insertion Of Banjarese elements into Indonesian (Banjar-Indonesian code-mixing), as well as a mixture of Banjarese, Indonesian, and English (Outer Code-mixing and Mixed Code-mixing). The forms of code-mixing found Included the insertion of Banjarese words, phrases, and lexical items such as kd (kada), makai, and mun. An analysis of the functions of code-mixing shows that this practice has a dual role: referential (for specific Local contexts), directive (to guide conversations), emotive/expressive (to indicate emotional closeness, for Example, longitude), and most importantly, as a marker of digital identity and cultural solidarity among Banjar speakers in the digital realm. This phenomenon confirms that social media serves as a new, flexible and essential space for the Banjar language to survive and negotiate with global and national languages. This study contributes to sociolinguistics by mapping the dynamics of language evolution among Gen Z in A digital context, highlighting the creative and social aspects of code-mixing.

This article examines the implications of parental verbal violence on the socio-emotional development of early childhood aged 3–6 years. The study was conducted through an extensive literature review supported by general field observations in community settings. The purpose of this research is to describe the phenomenon of verbal violence experienced by young children, analyze its effects on their emotional security, self-confidence, and social adaptation, and identify contributing factors from both the family environment and parental characteristics. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, relevant books, journal articles, and institutional reports were synthesized to construct a comprehensive understanding of how negative communication patterns shape children’s socio-emotional development. The findings indicate that verbal violence such as yelling, scolding, insulting, labeling, and threatening can disrupt children’s emotional regulation, lower their self-esteem, and hinder their ability to interact positively with peers. Repeated exposure to harsh language also increases the risk of anxiety, aggression, and social withdrawal. Conversely, positive, supportive, and empathetic parental communication fosters emotional resilience, empathy, and healthy social behavior. This article highlights the urgent need for parents, educators, and communities to strengthen awareness regarding the harmful impact of verbal violence and to promote nurturing communication practices that support the holistic development of young children.

This comparative study analyzes the models of character education by comparing the implementation of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) in Finland and the Akhlak (Moral) Curriculum within Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in Indonesia. Modern education demands not only cognitive intelligence but also emotional and moral maturity, highlighted by rising issues like bullying and mental health problems in adolescents. Finland's success is attributed to the strong integration of SEL, a psychological method focusing on five core competencies (self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making) that fosters a positive school climate. In contrast, Indonesia's PAI Akhlak Curriculum aims to form character rooted in theological-spiritual values (piety and obedience). Using a descriptive qualitative comparative method through literature review and content analysis, the study found that despite sharing the core objective of cultivating moral character , their foundations differ: SEL is secular-humanistic for well-being, while Akhlak is theological-spiritual. Furthermore, Finland's system employs a low-pressure, integrated, formative evaluation, supported by teacher autonomy, while Indonesia's PAI implementation faces challenges from a dominant focus on quantitative cognitive assessment. The study recommends that PAI adopt the structured SEL framework as a methodological bridge to translate Akhlak values into concrete student behavior and promote active, affect-focused learning.

The phenomenon of increasing female activity in cafes shows a shift in lifestyle that is not merely consumptive, but also reflective and social. Cafes have now become leisure spaces where women express themselves, build relationships, and find emotional balance. This study aims to examine the trend of women utilizing cafes as a practice of social welfare in the era of sustainability. The approach used is descriptive qualitative based on secondary sources, with data in the form of news articles, lifestyle writings, and online media coverage of women's leisure behavior in Cirebon. This analysis was conducted to explore the social and spiritual values that emerge in these activities. The results of the study show that cafes serve as safe spaces for women to interact, share ideas, and restore mental energy. These activities reflect maqashid values such as Hifz al-nafs (preserving the soul) and Hifz al-'aql (preserving the mind), while contributing to the spirit of sustainability through the strengthening of gender equality and social welfare. The novelty of this research lies in its attempt to interpret women's leisure trends through the paradigm of social welfare, rather than simply as a modern lifestyle. These findings have important implications for the creation of a more inclusive, safe, and sustainable public space, while also opening up a new perspective that leisure activities can be part of achieving maqashid al-syari'ah in contemporary social life.

Democracy is not only understood as a political system and state institutional mechanisms, but also as a value and culture of life that must be instilled from an early age. This article aims to examine the role of the family as the primary informal educational institution in developing a civilized democratic character in children. Through a literature review and descriptive-qualitative analysis, this article examines the concept of family-based democratic education, referring to theories of social and moral development and the dynamics of Indonesian democracy over time. The study's findings indicate that families play a strategic role in instilling democratic values ​​such as justice, responsibility, tolerance, deliberation, and respect for differences through daily practices, including open dialogue, parental moral role models, the division of tasks and responsibilities, and children's involvement in family decision-making. Empirical findings from a case study in Yogyakarta confirm that children raised in democratic families have better social, emotional, and political awareness skills. Family-based democratic education has been shown not only to shape children's behavior within the home environment but also to prepare them to become critical, ethical citizens capable of constructive participation in society and the nation. Thus, the family is the primary and irreplaceable foundation for building a civilized and sustainable democracy.

The rapid growth of modern retail competition requires companies to understand key drivers of consumer purchasing behavior, particularly impulse buying. This study examines the influence of price perception on impulse buying, with positive emotion as the mediating variable. Data were collected from 100 Circle K customers in Denpasar City using a purposive sampling method. Responses were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Path Analysis and Sobel Test. The findings show that price perception has a positive and significant effect on impulse buying and positive emotion, and positive emotion has a positive and significant effect on impulse buying. Further, positive emotion is a significant mediator in the relationship between price perception and impulse buying. These findings support Cognitive Appraisal Theory, suggesting that favorable price perceptions of sales promotions can evoke positive emotional responses, which in turn encourage impulse buying behavior among Circle K customers in Denpasar City.
