Students in the transition period are vulnerable to experiencing mental health problems and tend to self-diagnose due to easy access to information and low mental health literacy. This research aims to determine the relationship between mental health literacy and the tendency to make a diagnosis in students at the Faculty of Public Health, Nusa Cendana University, Kupang. This type of research is quantitative research with a correlational approach. Respondents in this study numbered 301 people using probability sampling techniques. Data collection techniques used the mental health literacy scale and self-diagnosis scale. Data analysis uses the product moment correlation test. The research results show that there is a significant negative relationship between mental health literacy and self-diagnosis (r = -0.846 < 0.05), which means that the higher the mental health literacy, the lower the tendency for self-diagnosis in students, and vice versa. In addition, mental health literacy contributed 71.6% to the tendency of self-diagnosis. It is hoped that students not only have a high level of mental health literacy but also quality, so that they realize that self-diagnosis is an inappropriate action and students are expected to take advantage of available professional mental health services.

Leprosy remains a significant public health problem in various developing countries, including Indonesia. This disease is caused by Mycobacterium leprae, which attacks the skin and peripheral nerves and can cause long-term physical, psychological, and social impacts if not treated early and adequately. Health-seeking behavior in leprosy patients is also influenced by structural factors such as the availability of health facilities, distance, transportation costs, and the quality of communication between health workers and patients. Research in various endemic countries confirms that friendly, accessible primary health care services that provide comprehensive education can improve early detection and therapy adherence. Patient SA, an 11-year-old child diagnosed with multibacillary (MB) leprosy and has been undergoing treatment for four months. The progression of the disease to MB indicates limitations in early symptom recognition and the family's health-seeking behavior, which may be influenced by low perceptions of disease susceptibility and severity, lack of knowledge, and barriers to accessing health services. However, after the diagnosis was confirmed and education provided by health workers, positive behavioral changes occurred, indicated by the patient's adherence to routine therapy as recommended.

Regular physical activity is known to play an important role in maintaining overall health, including improving immune system function and mental health. Lack of physical activity remains a public health issue, making it important to understand the impact of physical activity on the immune system and mental health. This study aimed to review the effect of regular physical activity on the immune system and mental health using a literature review method. The literature sources were obtained from publications within the last five years using databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. The articles were then screened and selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulting in nine relevant articles for analysis. The selection results indicate that regular physical activity can increase the mobilization and activity of immune cells such as lymphocytes, neutrophils, and natural killer cells, and also modify the adaptive immune system through changes in T cells and B cells. In addition, physical activity also improves mental health through neurobiological mechanisms such as increased endorphin, dopamine, and serotonin levels, which can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, as well as improve sleep quality and psychological well-being. Therefore, regular physical activity has a positive effect on the immune system and mental health and can be used as a promotive and preventive strategy to maintain overall health.

Early Childhood Education (PAUD) or Kindergarten (TK) is an important level of education in building the foundations for children's overall development, covering aspects of religious and moral values, physical-motor skills, cognitive skills, language, social-emotional skills, and the arts. The development of PAUD/TK currently shows a positive trend, as seen in the increasing public awareness, number of institutions, and participation of children aged 4–6 years. However, challenges still arise, such as limited facilities and infrastructure, variations in educator competence, differences in access to services between regions, and the need for stimulation at home. Competition among early childhood education institutions is quite fierce, driving innovation in learning quality, teacher competence, facilities, and flagship programs. In this context, marketing management plays a strategic role in building the institution's image, conveying information about educational services, identifying community needs, and increasing the institution's competitiveness in an ethical and sustainable manner. TK Muslimat NU Pakembaran, as a religious-based PAUD institution, plays an important role in developing children's development and instilling Islamic values. Although the marketing strategy is still simple and predominantly based on a familial approach and word-of-mouth promotion, these efforts are effective in building community trust and loyalty. In the future, strengthening a more systematic marketing management can increase competitiveness, expand the reach of information, and support the sustainability of the institution in providing quality, religious, and character-building early childhood education services.

Electroencephalography (EEG) signals are highly susceptible to noise and artifacts, which can degrade analysis accuracy, particularly in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) studies. Therefore, effective preprocessing is required to improve signal quality prior to further analysis. This study proposes an integrated EEG preprocessing pipeline that combines a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) band-pass filter (0.5–70 Hz) with notch filtering and detrending, followed by temporal denoising using the Stationary Wavelet Transform (SWT) with the Daubechies 4 mother wavelet and spatial filtering based on SPHARA. This dual-domain approach is designed to address both temporal and spatial noise in multichannel EEG signals. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed FIR combined with SWT and SPHARA pipeline consistently outperforms single-domain preprocessing methods, achieving a maximum Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of 31.93 dB. The proposed method also produces the lowest Mean Absolute Error (MAE) (16.81 µV) and Standard Deviation (SD) (0.75 µV), indicating high signal stability with minimal amplitude distortion. Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values remain stable within the range of 29.5–592.3 µV, with a minimum RMSE of 29.5 µV, demonstrating effective noise suppression while preserving signal energy. These results confirm that integrating temporal and spatial preprocessing significantly improves EEG signal quality and supports more reliable EEG analysis for ASD-related studies.

This research is motivated by the importance of strengthening a professional public service culture through the integration of public administration values, norms, and ethics. Although various regulations and codes of ethics have been established in public organizations, gaps remain between formal norms and service practices in the field, such as low levels of responsiveness and professionalism among civil servants. This study aims to analyze the relationship between values, norms, and ethics in shaping public service culture, and to examine the role of organizational ethics and codes of ethics in strengthening public administration professionalism. The research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical design through a literature review of relevant journals, books, and policy documents. Content analysis techniques were used to identify patterns of relationships between concepts. The results indicate that the internalization of ethical values ​​such as integrity, accountability, and transparency significantly influences the quality of public services. An organizational code of ethics serves as a formal instrument that clarifies standards of conduct for civil servants and strengthens a professional work culture. Consequently, public organizations need to strengthen ethics training, oversight mechanisms, and the integration of ethical values ​​into performance evaluation systems to build responsive and public-interest-oriented services.

This study aims to describe the level of service optimization in Financial Institution Pension Funds (DPLK) through the management of periodic pension benefit payments, additional benefits, and voluntary contributions using a descriptive-analytical approach. The data were derived from reports of 24 DPLK administrators collected in April 2026. The findings indicate that service optimization is largely determined by the effectiveness of managing periodic pension payments, other pension benefits, and contributions beyond the core program. This issue becomes crucial when viewed from DPLK performance trends over the past five years (2021–2025), where collected funds—comprising contributions and investment returns—were consistently lower than pension benefit payments, with an average ratio of 63%. This imbalance highlights sustainability concerns. The study identifies significant untapped potential, including Rp5.79 trillion annually (36% of total pension benefits) in periodic payments not yet optimized, Rp2.4 trillion for other benefit programs over 10 years, Rp1 trillion for religious-related funds, and Rp1.2 trillion in voluntary contributions from existing participants. To address these gaps, DPLK institutions need to strengthen regular and personalized communication beyond transactional interactions, ensuring participants are more engaged. Integrated services that emphasize transparent benefits, ease of contribution, continuous financial education, and digital accessibility are essential. Ultimately, optimizing DPLK services requires not only system and product improvements but also attention to participant behavior and service quality to enhance retirement well-being.

This study aims to analyze the influence of digital marketing through Instagram on purchasing decisions at UMKM Jamu Bu Bekti in Karawang Regency. The research uses a quantitative approach, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to consumers who have seen or purchased the products.
