This study aims to analyze the application of reality therapy counseling in improving students’ learning motivation influenced by social and family environmental factors. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method supported by interview data as complementary information. Data were collected through the analysis of relevant scientific literature and supported by interviews with parents to describe students’ daily behavior. The results show that low learning motivation is influenced by an unfavorable social environment and lack of family supervision, leading to behaviors that do not support learning activities, such as poor time management and low engagement in academic tasks. The application of reality therapy using the WDEP technique (wants, doing, evaluation, planning) helps students develop self-awareness, evaluate their behavior, and plan more adaptive actions. The findings indicate that reality therapy contributes positively to improving students’ learning motivation through behavioral change and increased personal responsibility. This study concludes that reality therapy can be used as an alternative approach in helping students overcome learning motivation problems.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of group counseling integrated with self-management techniques in minimizing students' academic procrastination.

This study aims to evaluate the Quran Tahfidz program at Bahrul Hikmah Islamic Junior High School using the Context, Input, Process, and Product (CIPP) evaluation model introduced by Stufflebeam. The findings of the research are as follows: First, the evaluation of the context aspect indicates that the program objectives have been comprehensively formulated. Data analysis confirms that the program implementation is well-aligned with the established goals, placing it in the 'good' category. Second, the evaluation of the input component reveals that the managerial competence of the administrators and the pedagogical capabilities of the educators have met the expected standards. Nevertheless, the infrastructure aspects require further optimization to foster a more conducive learning environment for students. Third, regarding the process aspect, the program implementation has generally achieved the targeted outcomes. However, observations identified obstacles predominantly stemming from students' internal factors; this implies the crucial role of teachers in integrating motivational stimuli as a preventive measure against declining learning enthusiasm. Fourth, the product evaluation shows that the daily memorization targets are generally achieved, although some students require remedial sessions.

This study uses an integrated analysis of positive law and Islamic law at Polres Bungo to investigate the reconstruction of sanctions for juvenile offenders during the investigation stage. Empirical trends suggest a procedural and administrative orientation that may restrict substantive rehabilitation, even though Undang-Undang Nomor 11 Tahun 2012 tentang Sistem Peradilan Pidana Anak (Juvenile Criminal Justice System Act) formally adopts restorative justice, diversion, and the best interests of the child as guiding principles. Using a multidisciplinary approach that integrates statutory, theological-normative (shar‘i), and historical considerations, this study uses a normative qualitative design based on library research. The theoretical framework incorporates maqāṣid al-sharīʿah as a normative evaluation instrument, legal effectiveness theory, and punishment theories. The findings reveal a conceptual convergence between Indonesian positive law and Islamic criminal jurisprudence in differentiating criminal responsibility based on maturity and prioritizing rehabilitation over retribution. There are still differences, nevertheless, when it comes to age criteria and the classification of sanctions: Islamic law places more emphasis on moral and biological maturity (baligh and tamyīz), whereas positive law focuses on strict legislative boundaries. The predominance of formal legality over psychosocial assessment at the investigative level runs the risk of undermining rehabilitative goals. In order to maintain proportionality and child protection, this study suggests a reconstructive paradigm that operationalizes maqāṣid-based principles, combines thorough psychological evaluation, and improves diversion measures. In addition to realistically advancing the creation of a more equitable, rehabilitative, and child-centered investigative framework, the research theoretically advances the conversation about harmonizing state and Islamic law.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by reversible bronchoconstriction, mucus hypersecretion, and bronchial hyperresponsiveness. This condition causes shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing, and increased respiratory rate which impacts increased respiratory muscle work. One of the non-pharmacological interventions that can be applied in nursing practice is diaphragmatic breathing relaxation to help improve breathing patterns and increase respiratory muscle relaxation. Objective: To analyze the application of diaphragmatic breathing relaxation in improving respiratory muscle relaxation in asthma patients in the inpatient ward. Method: The study used a case study design with an Evidence Based Practice (EBP) approach. The research subjects were three asthma patients who experienced increased respiratory frequency. The intervention was carried out for three days in the form of structured diaphragmatic breathing exercises. Data were collected through nursing assessment, observation of respiratory frequency before and after the intervention, and evaluation of patient responses. Results: Before the intervention, all respondents experienced tachypnea with the use of accessory respiratory muscles. After three days of diaphragmatic breathing relaxation, the respiratory rates of all three respondents returned to normal (12–20 breaths/minute), respiratory muscle tension decreased, and the patients appeared more relaxed. Conclusion: Diaphragmatic breathing relaxation is effective in increasing respiratory muscle relaxation and stabilizing respiratory rate in asthmatic patients. This intervention can be used as part of non-pharmacological nursing care for patients with respiratory system disorders.
