Nursing care in hospitals is still below the established standard of 80%, thus reflecting suboptimal nurse performance. This condition is thought to be influenced by factors such as rewards, workload, length of service and supervision. This study aims to analyze the relationship between rewards, workload, length of service, and supervision with nurse performance in the Inpatient Unit of Ratu Zalecha Martapura Regional Hospital. This study used a quantitative method with an observational analytical design using a cross-sectional approach. The study sample consisted of 152 nurses selected using cluster proportional random sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression. The results showed a significant relationship between rewards and nurse performance (p-value=<0.001), workload and nurse performance (p<0.001), and supervision and nurse performance (p-value=<0.001). Length of service did not show a significant relationship with nurse performance (p-value=0,968). Multivariate analysis showed that supervision was the most dominant factor related to nurse performance. Thus, compensation, workload, and supervision are related to nurse performance, while length of service is not related to nurse performance in the Inpatient Unit of Ratu Zalecha Regional Hospital, Martapura. The hospital is expected to improve supervision, workload management, and training and recognition for nurses to improve the quality of nursing services.

The KRI Nagapasa Class is a submarine of the Indonesian Navy that has the capability to deploy sea mines, launch anti-surface missiles, and release countermeasure torpedoes. However, to face the increasingly complex dynamics of the regional strategic environment, it is necessary to increase combat power through the installation of a Sub Launch Missile weapon system. Until now, the Indonesian Navy does not have a submarine equipped with this underwater missile, especially in the Chang Bogo class. This study aims to analyze and determine the most appropriate choice of Sub Launch Missile missiles to support submarine training and operations. The method used is the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) with a quantitative approach. The results of the ranking of five respondents showed that the SM-39 Exocet missile was in first place with a value of 0.46424 followed by the CM-708UNB with a value of 0.41461 and the UGM-84 Harpoon with a value of 0.12115. The SM-39 Exocet missile was chosen as a priority because it has technical specifications that best meet the operational needs of the Indonesian Navy (TNI AL), as well as significantly contributing to enhancing the deterrence effect and combat capability of the Nagapasa-class submarines.

Humanitarian law plays a significant role in shaping military professionalism, particularly in developing leadership character that upholds human values during military operations. Marine Corps officers are frequently involved in operational assignments that directly interact with civilian populations, both in war operations and military operations other than war. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of International Humanitarian Law is essential for supporting professional and ethical decision-making. This study aims to analyze efforts to optimize humanitarian law understanding in order to develop a humanistic character among Marine Corps officer cadets. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method using observation, interviews, documentation studies, and literature reviews. Data were collected from Marine Corps educational institutions and legal experts within the Indonesian Naval Academy. The findings indicate that humanitarian law understanding among officer cadets remains constrained by limited instructional time, insufficient practical simulations, and the need for stronger curriculum integration. However, humanitarian law significantly contributes to developing integrity, responsibility, empathy, respect for human dignity, and professionalism in military leadership. Optimization efforts can be achieved through curriculum enhancement, practical case-based learning, continuous legal education, leadership ethics training, and strengthening organizational culture. The study concludes that strengthening humanitarian law education is essential for producing professional, humanistic, and globally competent Marine Corps officers.

The empowerment of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) is a strategic effort to enhance the capacity and independence of business actors in supporting sustainable economic development. However, based on data from Rumah BUMN Aceh Utara, out of a total of 413 assisted MSMEs, only 9.16% have successfully upgraded their business status, while 90.84% have not yet done so. This study aims to describe MSME empowerment through the assistance program of Rumah BUMN Aceh Utara and to identify its supporting and inhibiting factors. This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving Rumah BUMN managers and MSME actors, and were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The results show that MSME empowerment in Rumah BUMN Aceh Utara is based on Suharto’s theory, which consists of three main approaches, namely empowering through training and mentoring that contributes to the improvement of business actors’ capacities, protecting through business legality facilitation, and supporting through the provision of production facilities, packaging machines, access to capital, promotion, and MSME gallery facilities, although these have not yet been fully optimized. The supporting factors of MSME empowerment include institutional support, technological development, and MSME participation, while the inhibiting factors include limited human resources, limited funding, and low participation of some MSME actors. This study emphasizes the importance of improving the quality of mentoring, optimizing the utilization of facilities, and increasing MSME participation to support the sustainability of empowerment programs.

This research is motivated by the importance of implementing Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) in speed boat maintenance activities as a supporting facility for ship agency operations at PT. Sinar Pasific. The high intensity of speed boat usage makes the fleet vulnerable to damage if maintenance is not carried out regularly and according to procedures. Based on initial observations, inconsistencies in maintenance implementation, incomplete documentation, and damage to the engine, electrical systems, and hull were still found, which can disrupt company operations. This study aims to determine the implementation of SOPs, the obstacles encountered, and the efforts made to optimize speed boat maintenance at PT. Sinar Pasific. This research was conducted at PT. Sinar Pasific during the author’s Onboard Practical Training (PRADA) from August 2024 to July 2025. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative method. The data sources were obtained through direct field observation, semi-structured interviews with personnel involved in speed boat operations, and documentation studies related to fleet maintenance activities. The results show that the implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) in speed boat maintenance at PT. Sinar Pasific has been carried out but has not yet run optimally. This is indicated by inconsistent maintenance schedules, lack of supervision, and incomplete maintenance documentation. In addition, several problems were still found, such as damage to the engine, electrical systems, and speed boat hulls, which can hinder company operations. To overcome these obstacles, the company has made efforts by improving discipline in SOP implementation, conducting regular supervision and evaluation, improving maintenance documentation, and increasing technicians’ understanding of the importance of preventive maintenance so that speed boat conditions are maintained and operational activities run smoothly.

The urgency of this research stems from the knowledge gap regarding contextual factors contributing to the underuse of learning media in rural elementary schools, which has not been adequately addressed in previous research, which has tended to focus on urban contexts. This study aims to examine teachers' perceptions at Sugayang Public Elementary School regarding the underuse of learning media in the learning process, as well as the factors that contribute to it. The method used was a descriptive qualitative method, utilizing in-depth interviews as a data collection technique. The data were then analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques according to Miles and Huberman. The results showed that teachers experienced difficulties in using technology, difficulties in creating learning media, and the perception that using media was time-consuming. This reveals an important pattern that the underuse of learning media is a systematic problem rooted in the TPACK gap that is not supported by practical time management solutions. These findings imply that changes in learning practices will not occur simply through the provision of generic technology tools or training; rather, bottom-up and contextual solutions are needed. The novelty of this research lies in the in-depth qualitative approach applied to the under-researched context of rural elementary schools, which has not been studied before. This research contributes through recommendations for the implementation of a peer-mentoring program and the development of a ready-to-use digital learning media bank, thus offering valuable insights for future research with relevant stakeholders.

The risk of accidents in the school environment is quite high, but the ability of the School Health Business Team (UKS) to handle emergencies is often still limited to theoretical knowledge without adequate practical skills. This study aims to analyze the influence of the Role Playing and Emergency Simulation (RANGGA) method on the improvement of the knowledge and skills of the UKS Team in junior high school. This study used a quasi-experiment design with a pre-post test with control group design. The research sample amounted to 60 respondents which were taken by purposive sampling technique. The intervention group was given RANGGA training, while the control group was given conventional education. The data were analyzed using the non-parametric Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test because the data distribution was abnormal. In the intervention group, there was an increase in the average knowledge score from 88.7 to 97.9 and the skill score from 87.99 to 97.98. The results of the Wilcoxon test showed a significance value of p<0.001 for both variables in the intervention group, indicating a very strong influence of the RANGGA method. In contrast, although the control group experienced an improvement, the variation in scores remained higher and the improvement was not as significant as the intervention group. The RANGGA method is significantly effective in improving the emergency competence of the UKS Team through an experiential learning approach. It is recommended for school institutions to integrate simulation and role play methods in the UKS training curriculum to ensure optimal emergency response readiness.

This study examines the impact of transformational leadership on citizen satisfaction with public service delivery in Indonesian local government context through a cross-sectional survey of 384 citizens in Tanah Datar Regency, West Sumatra, selected via stratified random sampling. Data were collected using validated instruments measuring transformational leadership (MLQ) and citizen satisfaction (adapted SERVQUAL), then analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Findings reveal that transformational leadership significantly predicts citizen satisfaction with public service delivery (β = 0.672, p < 0.001), with inspirational motivation (β = 0.284, p < 0.001) and individual consideration (β = 0.267, p < 0.001) showing the strongest effects. The model explains 45.2% of variance in citizen satisfaction, with service responsiveness and reliability emerging as key mediating factors. Results demonstrate that transformational leadership practices significantly enhance citizen satisfaction with public service delivery in local government settings, where leaders demonstrating inspirational motivation and individual consideration achieve higher citizen satisfaction levels. Practical implications suggest that local governments should prioritize transformational leadership training for public officials, emphasizing inspirational communication and personalized attention to citizen needs to improve public service delivery effectiveness, thereby contributing to the growing literature on public leadership effectiveness in developing country contexts.

The development of digital services by BPJS Ketenagakerjaan through the JMO (Jamsostek Mobile) application has triggered a surge in large-scale and unstructured user reviews on the Google Play Store, thereby complicating manual analysis and conventional sentiment analysis in accurately identifying specific issues. This research aims to implement the Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) method to granularly evaluate JMO application reviews based on specific aspects, while simultaneously addressing class imbalance and computational efficiency issues. The proposed method combines the pretrained IndoBERT model as a contextual feature extractor, the SMOTE technique to balance the training data, and an artificial neural network (Neural Network) as the classification layer without performing full fine-tuning. The dataset used consists of 90,268 unique reviews categorized into five main aspects through keyword matching, namely General Satisfaction/Complaints, Performance & Stability, Service & Support, Feature Quality, and UI/UX, with initial lexicon-based labeling using the InSet Lexicon. The research results indicate that the proposed model successfully achieves highly optimal performance with an accuracy rate of 91.81% and a weighted F1-score of 92%. Furthermore, the implementation of SMOTE proved effective in enhancing model reliability on the minority class (negative sentiment), achieving an F1-score of 89%. The implications of this research contribute an accurate and efficient aspect-based sentiment analysis framework for developers, and serve as a strategic evaluation tool for BPJS Ketenagakerjaan in mapping specific user complaints to accelerate continuous improvements in the performance, stability, and service quality of the JMO application.

This study aims to examine the implementation of policies regarding the use of the e-Kelurahan feature in the Sangu Palu application in Taipa Village. The study employs George C. Edward III’s policy implementation theory, which consists of four dimensions: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. A qualitative descriptive approach was used, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, documentation, and literature review involving nine informants. The findings indicate that the implementation of the e-Kelurahan policy has not yet run optimally. The main obstacle lies in the communication aspect, particularly the lack of direct public socialization regarding the use of the application, resulting in low public understanding and limited utilization of digital services. In addition, training for village officials has not been conducted continuously, as it was only provided during the initial implementation stage. Therefore, periodic retraining is needed to improve technical competence and evaluate service performance. Although the aspects of disposition and bureaucratic structure have generally functioned well, they have not been sufficient to optimize digital service utilization. These findings are consistent with the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) evaluation results, which place Palu City in the “sufficient” category, indicating the need for further improvement in digital service implementation.

Kampung Batik Okra, located in Kranggan Urban Village, Bubutan District, Surabaya City, represents a community-based creative economy initiative officially inaugurated on 28 December 2022 by the Surabaya City Government. This study aims to analyze the facilitating role of the urban village administration in strengthening the creative economic capacity of residents through the batik industry, as well as to identify supporting and inhibiting factors for community empowerment in Kampung Batik Okra. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis. Informants were purposively selected, encompassing village government officials, batik group administrators, artisans, and academic facilitators. The findings reveal that the urban village administration performs three principal facilitative roles: (1) facilitation of training and skill enhancement; (2) facilitation of market access and promotion; and (3) facilitation of multi-stakeholder partnerships. These roles contribute significantly to the strengthening of residents’ creative economic capacity, as evidenced by an increase in active artisans, product diversification, and expanded marketing networks. Nevertheless, limited human resource capacity within the village administration, inconsistent community participation, and restricted access to capital remain structural barriers requiring more systemic policy interventions. This research offers a conceptual framework of empowerment-based facilitating roles for urban villages, which may serve as a reference for developing creative economy villages in Indonesian urban areas.

Aerobic capacity, commonly measured by maximal oxygen uptake (VO₂max), is a key indicator of physical fitness and athletic performance, particularly in endurance sports. Recent attention has focused on the role of respiratory muscle function in supporting exercise performance, as respiratory muscle fatigue during high-intensity or prolonged activity may reduce ventilatory efficiency and exercise tolerance. This literature review aims to examine current evidence regarding the effects of Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT), including Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT), on aerobic capacity in athletes. Relevant studies were identified through electronic databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar using keywords related to respiratory muscle training, VO₂max, and athletes. The reviewed studies generally reported improvements in inspiratory muscle strength, reduced respiratory muscle fatigue, and enhanced ventilatory efficiency following RMT interventions. These physiological adaptations may contribute to better exercise tolerance and overall athletic performance. However, evidence regarding direct improvements in VO₂max remains inconsistent across studies. The findings suggest that RMT can be used as a complementary strategy alongside conventional training programs to support aerobic performance. In addition, improved respiratory muscle function may provide benefits in health promotion and rehabilitation by reducing dyspnea and increasing exercise tolerance. Further well-designed studies are needed to clarify the extent of RMT’s contribution to improving VO₂max in athletic populations.
