This study was conducted to explore in depth how ethical pressure, ethical orientation, and religiosity influence earnings management practices, while also examining whether religiosity plays a role as a moderating variable in this relationship. Using a quantitative, survey-based approach, this study involved 109 respondents with professional backgrounds and experience in accounting and finance, thus deemed relevant in understanding the phenomenon of earnings management from a practitioner's perspective. The data analysis technique used was Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), which is considered appropriate for examining relationships between latent variables with high complexity. The results show that ethical pressure has a positive and significant influence on earnings management practices, meaning that the greater the ethical pressure a person feels, the higher the tendency to engage in such practices. Conversely, ethical orientation shows a negative and significant influence, so that individuals with a strong ethical orientation tend to reject this manipulative practice. Religiosity is also shown to have a significant negative influence, so that the higher a person's level of religiosity, the lower their tendency to engage in earnings management. Furthermore, moderation analysis found that religiosity strengthens the influence of ethical orientation in suppressing earnings management practices, meaning that individuals who are both religious and have a high ethical orientation are more consistent in maintaining their integrity. However, the role of religiosity was not proven to be significant in moderating the relationship between ethical pressure and earnings management practices, indicating that although religiosity can shape ethical attitudes, it is not sufficient to mitigate the impact of strong external pressures. These findings imply the importance of strengthening ethical values ​​and religiosity in accounting education and practice to prevent opportunistic behavior that is detrimental to related parties.

This study aims to determine the effect of Customer Intimacy, Price Fairness, and Customer Bonding on Customer Loyalty at Reni Salon Tales Ngadiluwih. The selection of the research location is based on the consideration that Reni Salon is a beauty service business that has regular customers, but the level of customer loyalty cannot be measured precisely. The type of research used is quantitative research with an unknown population. The research sample amounted to 105 respondents who were determined by purposive sampling technique, namely the selection of samples based on certain criteria relevant to the research. The analysis techniques used include data quality testing, classical assumption testing, and multiple linear regression analysis with the help of Statistical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) version 25. This analysis is used to determine the influence of both partial and simultaneous between independent variables on the dependent variable. The results of the study indicate that partially, Customer Intimacy does not have a significant influence on Customer Loyalty. This indicates that personal closeness between the salon and customers is not yet a major factor in forming loyalty. Meanwhile, Price Fairness has a significant influence on Customer Loyalty, meaning that prices that are considered fair and appropriate by customers can increase their loyalty. Customer Bonding also had no significant effect on Customer Loyalty, indicating that emotional bonds or close customer relationships do not yet play a significant role. However, simultaneous test results show that all three variables—Customer Intimacy, Price Fairness, and Customer Bonding—jointly have a significant effect on Customer Loyalty. These findings suggest that price fairness plays the most critical role in enhancing customer loyalty compared to other factors. Therefore, Reni Salon management is advised to focus more on fair pricing strategies, along with efforts to strengthen closeness and bonds with customers.

This research aims to formulate a business development strategy for AK Laundry, a micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) located in Palembang that operates in the laundry service industry. As competition in this sector continues to intensify, MSMEs are required to adapt quickly through effective strategic planning. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, direct observations, documentation, and questionnaires, ensuring a holistic understanding of both internal and external conditions.

These findings confirm that the clinic was able to maintain competitiveness and service sustainability amidst the dynamics of the National Health Insurance (JKN) and the digitalization of the healthcare system.  

This study aims to explore how interpersonal communication plays a role in the process of constructing self-identity within the “Jemuah Keos” community in Surabaya. This community functions as an alternative social space inhabited by individuals with diverse creative backgrounds, such as musicians, motorcycle builders, visual artists, and subculture enthusiasts. The formation of identity in this community is not solely driven by individual expression but also shaped through social interactions that are reflective and rich in meaningful symbols. The study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study method. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews with nine informants, and documentation of various visual artifacts representing the community’s activities. The data analysis process follows the interactive model by Miles and Huberman, which consists of three main stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The theoretical framework used in this study refers to Joseph A. DeVito's concept of interpersonal communication, which includes self-disclosure, empathy, emotional support, symbolic exchange, social values, as well as reflective interaction and role negotiation in social relationships. The findings indicate that interpersonal communication is a key element in shaping and negotiating personal identity. Cultural symbols such as clothing style, vehicle modifications, visual language, and daily interaction patterns become primary means of identity expression. The "Jemuah Keos" community demonstrates openness, equality, and a critical stance against the dominance of mainstream culture. Interpersonal communication within this community also plays a role in building collective solidarity and voicing critical views on existing cultural standards. The identity formed is not only personal but also part of a larger community identity.

Film as a form of mass media has an important role in the socio-cultural, artistic, political, as well as scientific realms. Cek Toko Lado 2 is a continuation of the story of the Chinese family of Koh Afuk which is in the comedy genre and directed by Ernest Prakasa. This film not only presents entertainment, but also presents family dynamics, parental expectations, and challenges in maintaining family business while building trust between fellow family members. The stories presented are able to illustrate the social reality of urban communities who are often faced with a dilemma between family interests and individual freedom. The purpose of this research is to analyze the struggle of Erwin's character in fighting for his love for Natalie and his efforts to get the blessing of his future in-laws.

First, the spirit of never giving up is reflected in Erwin's consistency in facing various obstacles. Second, the attitude of responsibility can be seen from Erwin's commitment to his career and the romantic relationship he is living. Third, the willingness to sacrifice is evident when Erwin prioritizes personal interests in order to gain the blessing of Natalie's family. In conclusion, this study emphasizes that films not only function as a means of entertainment, but also as a social learning medium that conveys moral messages about struggle, sacrifice, and the importance of trust in family relationships and romance. Thus, Cek Toko Lado 2 is able to be a relevant and inspiring social reflection for the audience, especially urban people who are facing the dynamics of family life and love.

This study examines the influence of club image, sponsor factors, and fan loyalty on the purchase intention of official merchandise among Bali United supporters. The focus of the research is to understand how these three factors contribute to driving merchandise sales in sports marketing, with the aim of providing insights that can improve the club's revenue strategies. By adopting a quantitative approach, primary data were collected from 87 respondents who are active supporters of Bali United, using an online questionnaire. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to evaluate the significance and direction of the relationships between the variables. The results reveal that each of the factors, sponsor factors and fan loyalty has a positive and significant effect, meanwhile club image has no significant effect on the intention to purchase official merchandise. This indicates that a stronger perception of the relevant and reputable sponsorships, and higher levels of fan commitment all contribute to an increased likelihood of supporters purchasing merchandise. The findings highlight the synergistic role of branding, partnerships, and community engagement in influencing consumer behavior within the sports fandom context. A positive impact from sponsor factors, such as the alignment of brands with the club's values, enhance the overall appeal of the merchandise. Moreover, fan loyalty acts as a significant driver, as loyal fans are more likely to invest in merchandise as a way to support their club. This study concludes that while Bali United’s club image does not significantly influence fans’ intention to buy merchandise, sponsor factors and fan loyalty have a positive and significant effect on purchase intention; therefore, strengthening fan loyalty and effectively managing sponsorship partnerships are key drivers in maximizing merchandise sales potential, while club image plays an indirect role.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has spurred the growth of online shopping through e-commerce platforms. Among the factors suspected to influence the increasing purchase intention, especially among university students, are social media engagement and brand awareness. Students, as part of the digital native generation, are primary targets for e-commerce marketing through social media. However, the degree to which these factors affect students’ purchasing interest remains underexplored. This study aims to examine the influence of social media and brand awareness on students’ purchase intention in e-commerce products. A quantitative approach was employed using Partial Least Squares (PLS) analysis to assess the relationships between variables. The findings reveal that social media exerts a positive and significant effect on purchase intention, with an original sample value of 0.114, a p-value of 0.003, and a t-statistic of 2.944. Brand awareness demonstrates an even stronger impact, with an original sample value of 0.879, a p-value of 0.000, and a t-statistic of 25.567. These results confirm both hypotheses, indicating that more intensive and engaging social media activities by e-commerce platforms, coupled with higher brand awareness among students, significantly enhance their purchase intention in offered products. This study highlights the strategic importance of social media marketing and brand-building efforts in stimulating consumer interest within the student demographic. This study not only contributes to the theoretical understanding of consumer behavior in the digital age but also offers practical insights for e-commerce marketers targeting university students. The implications suggest that personalized and interactive content on social media can further strengthen engagement and brand recall. Future research could explore moderating variables such as trust, product type, or cultural background to deepen the analysis of purchase intention drivers.

The background of this research lies in the paradigm shift of PR communication patterns from conventional to digital platforms, alongside the growing importance of establishing long-term, strategic relationships in the era of media convergence. The study adopts Ledingham and Bruning’s Relationship Management (RM) theory as its analytical framework, which consists of five key dimensions: trust, commitment, openness, relationship satisfaction, and mutual interest. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with Gen FM’s PR team, the Head of Digital Content, selected audience members, and business partners. These interviews were further supported by observation and documentation of content published on Instagram. The findings reveal that Gen FM effectively applies the five dimensions of relationship management theory in its PR practices through digital media. Trust is fostered by presenting credible and relevant content; commitment is demonstrated by maintaining consistent interactions with audiences; openness is shown by accommodating feedback and criticism; satisfaction is achieved through personal and engaging approaches; and mutual interest is realized through promotional collaborations that benefit both the radio station and its partners. Nevertheless, stakeholders also expressed expectations for Gen FM to further enhance its Instagram presence by being more active, responsive, and innovative in order to strengthen engagement and adapt to the dynamic needs of digital audiences. In conclusion, this study emphasizes that Instagram functions as an effective medium for Gen FM to implement strategic and adaptive PR relationship management. The platform not only facilitates two-way communication but also strengthens brand positioning by fostering sustainable stakeholder relationships in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

In addition to personal selling, Adhiwangsa Hotel and Convention Solo also utilized other IMC tools such as direct marketing, public relations, and digital marketing to maximize the effectiveness of their promotional efforts for the "So Kiss Me 2024" event. The hotel leveraged its existing customer database to send personalized invitations and promotions through WhatsApp, which proved to be an effective channel for engaging with customers directly. Social media platforms were also used to create awareness and drive attendance, with consistent messaging across all channels to maintain a unified brand voice. Furthermore, the hotel emphasized the importance of building strong relationships with its customers by maintaining regular communication. This strategy helped foster trust and loyalty, as customers felt valued and personally attended to. The event was promoted not only through traditional marketing tools but also through word-of-mouth, leveraging employees' personal networks to spread the message. The study also highlights the role of digital marketing tools in enhancing the reach of the hotel's communication efforts. By utilizing platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp, Adhiwangsa Hotel was able to reach a broader audience, particularly among younger consumers who are more active on social media. These platforms allowed for real-time updates, engagement, and interaction with potential customers, making the event more dynamic and accessible. Overall, the success of the "So Kiss Me" event can be attributed to the hotel's effective use of integrated marketing communications, where personal selling played a significant role in delivering a more personalized and direct message to potential customers.

This study aims to analyze the influence of content marketing and live streaming on purchasing decisions for fashion products among Generation Z users of the TikTok platform. In the era of digitalization and social media dominance, TikTok has emerged as one of the most influential platforms shaping consumer behavior, particularly for the younger generation. The research adopts an associative quantitative approach using a questionnaire survey distributed to 102 respondents who actively use TikTok for fashion-related content. The collected data were analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 4 to test the hypothesized relationships between variables. The results indicate that both content marketing and live streaming significantly and positively affect purchasing decisions. The path coefficients of 0.361 for content marketing and 0.521 for live streaming demonstrate their substantial contribution. Furthermore, the research model yields an R-squared value of 0.640, suggesting that these two independent variables collectively explain 64% of the variance in purchasing decisions among Generation Z. In addition, the validity and reliability tests confirm that all constructs fulfill the eligibility criteria, reinforcing the robustness of the measurement model. These findings emphasize that content-based marketing strategies, when designed to be engaging, interactive, and visually appealing, are highly effective in fostering consumer interest and driving purchase intention. Live streaming, in particular, serves as a powerful marketing tool by offering real-time interaction, product demonstration, and a sense of authenticity that resonates strongly with Generation Z’s consumption patterns. The implications of this research highlight the strategic importance for fashion brands to optimize their digital marketing practices by integrating creative content marketing and live streaming features on TikTok.

The " Toddler Family Class " program provided an opportunity for parents to actively engage in learning about the importance of appropriate parenting for toddlers. Recognizing the critical window of early childhood, the program focused on equipping parents with the knowledge and tools to promote their children’s cognitive, emotional, and social development. Parenting practices in early childhood significantly influence a child’s future academic success, emotional well-being, and ability to form healthy relationships. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that parents are well-informed about the best approaches to child-rearing during these formative years. The interactive discussions offered parents a platform to share their personal experiences, concerns, and challenges regarding parenting. Case studies presented real-life scenarios that allowed participants to apply theoretical knowledge to practical situations. This approach facilitated a deeper understanding of the various parenting styles, including authoritarian, permissive, and democratic parenting, and their respective effects on child behavior and development. Furthermore, the program emphasized the importance of nurturing a secure attachment between parents and toddlers. Participants were introduced to strategies that encourage positive reinforcement, empathy, and effective communication with their children. These strategies are key to fostering a supportive and loving environment in which children can thrive emotionally and socially. The collaborative nature of the program also helped to build a supportive network among parents. They were encouraged to form lasting relationships that could provide ongoing mutual support in their parenting journey. This communal learning environment reinforced the importance of family-centered child development practices, ensuring that parents felt empowered to make informed decisions that would benefit their children’s long-term growth and well-being.

Women's leadership is recognized as a strategic factor driving organizational success through the formation of effective and sustainable team collaboration. Beyond simply directing, women leaders build a conducive work climate where team members are valued, engaged, and have equal opportunities to contribute. Across various sectors, they demonstrate the ability to manage team dynamics with a participatory, collaborative approach, and a focus on healthy interpersonal relationships. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to describe the role, benefits, and challenges of women's leadership in human resource (HR) development. Twelve articles published between 2020 and 2024 were selected based on the PICOC framework to ensure academic validity. The study results indicate that women's leadership is synonymous with a participatory style, empathy, and open communication that encourages time commitment, the flow of ideas, innovation, and productivity. Women leaders create a psychologically safe work environment, value differences of opinion, and encourage cross-functional collaboration. Their role is increasingly important in the era of flexible work and digital transformation, where empathy and communication are key to maintaining team motivation and productivity. However, challenges such as gender stereotypes, structural barriers, and cultural resistance still limit the effectiveness of women's leadership, especially in strategic positions and high-level decision-making. In many cases, women leaders still have to work harder to gain legitimacy, even though they have the same or even higher qualifications than their male counterparts. Addressing this requires more inclusive organizational policies, gender-based leadership training programs, mentoring, and consistent advocacy for equality. Companies and public institutions must actively create an ecosystem that supports women's leadership development, including equal access to strategic career opportunities.

The contractual relationship between government entities (PA/KPA/PPK) and construction service providers in procurement activities is complex, as it intersects with both public and private law. Government procurement contracts for construction projects are often structured through a tender process, where service providers must compete to win the contract. Once the provider is selected, a legal agreement is formed, which regulates the roles, responsibilities, and obligations of the parties involved. This agreement is typically outlined in a contract document that serves as a formal, legally binding commitment. In civil law, such contracts are typically governed by private law principles, which include contracts, obligations, and liabilities. However, the nature of government procurement contracts adds a unique element of public law, particularly administrative and criminal law. The government’s involvement in these contracts introduces a dual legal framework that governs the relationship between the parties. On one hand, the contract is influenced by the state’s regulatory powers and administrative authority, ensuring compliance with legal standards and public interests. On the other hand, it is also subject to private law principles, as the government enters into agreements with construction providers just like any other business transaction. This mixed legal framework (or "mixed law") creates a distinctive legal relationship, where elements of public law, such as administrative regulations and oversight, coexist with private law principles, such as those governing contract enforcement and dispute resolution. The contract, which is a Keputusan Tindakan Administrasi Negara (KTUN), remains a civil law act, despite its public law foundation. This hybrid nature of government contracts ensures that both public and private law aspects are considered in the process, which can sometimes lead to legal complexities and challenges in the implementation and enforcement of these contracts.
