This study was conducted to understand how parenting styles significantly influence the process of shaping children’s behavior. The method used in this research was a qualitative approach, with data collection carried out through interviews and direct observation of participants aged 10–18 years who live in Cicendo District, Bandung. Based on the results conveyed by several participants, it can be seen that parenting styles play a very important role in children’s growth and development as well as in the formation of their emotional conditions. Parents who play a positive role such as giving more attention, communicating well, and providing full support tend to build positive responses and emotional stability in children. This helps shape a healthy personality and creates a comfortable home environment that makes children feel safe. In contrast, parents who display negative roles and parenting styles such as being harsh, lacking attention, and frequently engaging in conflict tend to make children feel pressured and lack self confidence due to unmet emotional support. As a result, children may limit their relationship with their parents, which leads to emotional instability. Overall, the discussion shows that the family is the primary foundation for children, as their growth and development are strongly influenced by how parents fulfill their roles in shaping children’s personalities, which ultimately impacts their lives in the future.

The Fast Beauty phenomenon presents social pressure from marketing strategies that create a feeling of worry about being left behind, thus encouraging generation Z consumers to purchase beauty products in the Fast Beauty brand category. This study aims to examine the relationship between Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) and purchase decisions among generation Z as consumers of Fast Beauty products. The method used in this study was a quantitative correlational method with 200 participants aged 18 to 30 years, of which 7 male (3.5%) and 193 female (96.5%). Data collection was conducted through an online questionnaire compiled using the Missing Out Scale (FoMOS) and a Purchase Decision scale using a Likert scale of 1 to 4. The analysis results show a significant positive relationship between Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) and purchase decisions (r = 0.620, p < 0.05), where the higher the Fear of Missing Out (FoMO), the higher the tendency of Generation Z consumers to make Fast Beauty product purchases. These analysis results align with previous research showing that consumers experiencing Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) tend to make product purchases without careful consideration due to concerns about being left behind in their social environment. The implications of this research show the importance of implementing marketing strategies that pay more attention to the psychological side of consumers and the implementation of more conscious consumer behavior before purchasing Fast Beauty products.

Peat characteristics include low fertility, high acidity, and poor drainage because it comes from the weathering of organic matter under anaerobic conditions. However, peat has environmental benefits such as absorbing carbon, water buffers, and providing habitat for various unique flora and fauna. The use of peat as agricultural land is widely used by farmers in Pontianak City because it has a very large peatland area with a traditional agricultural system. However, traditional farming will have local knowledge (local wisdom) as a way to minimize damage to the peat ecosystem as an adaptation effort. This study aims to examine the adaptation of peatland management in traditional farming in Pontianak City. The method used in this study is qualitative descriptive and multiple linear regression analysis. The number of research samples was 68 farmers. The results of the study showed that traditional farmers have paid attention to the sustainability of their farming to minimize environmental damage. The results of the study showed that the adaptations carried out were making wells to maintain water availability, using short-lived vegetables that require shallow drainage of 20-30 cm and are adaptive to peat, providing intensive shade, planting trees on empty land, cleaning intensive irrigation, providing ameliorant ash, lime, chicken manure intensively, and arranging planting patterns with diversification. The determining factors for peatland management adaptation include age, land area, length of farming, participation of fire-conscious communities, and intensity of participation in outreach.

This study aims to: (1) examine the effect of an entrepreneurship program using a Design thinking approach on the entrepreneurial spirit of Grade V students at UPT SPF SD Inpres Baraya 1, Makassar City, and (2) examine the effect of an entrepreneurship program using a Design thinking approach on student independence of Grade V students at UPT SPF SD Inpres Baraya 1, Makassar City. This research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method using a Non-Equivalent Control Group Design. The research subjects consisted of two groups: an experimental group that received an entrepreneurship program based on Design thinking and a control group that did not receive the treatment. Data were collected using questionnaires measuring students’ entrepreneurial spirit and independence, supported by documentation. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, and hypothesis testing through an independent samples t-test. The results indicate that the entrepreneurship program using a design thinking approach had a significant positive effect on students’ entrepreneurial spirit and independence. The independent samples t-test revealed that the program significantly improved students’ entrepreneurial spirit (p = 0.002 < 0.05) compared to the control group. Likewise, a very significant effect was found on student independence, with a significance value of p = 0.001 < 0.05. These findings confirm that the application of a design thinking–based entrepreneurship program effectively enhances key entrepreneurial attributes, including creativity, initiative, responsibility, and independence among fifth-grade elementary school students.

Attention span and cognitive focus in young minds these days are increasingly structured by the growing influence of digital distractions. Drawing from the ideas of Foucault and Nietzsche, this paper examines how technology molds behavior and, at the same time, is used as a tool of control through power relations. This digitally fosters a form of nihilism, the sense life has no purpose. By using a mixed-methods approach, this research combines the surveying and in-depth interviewing of students and instructors about how technology influences attention, learning, and academic performance. Results indicate that while technology brings many benefits, it also provides significant challenges-most notably via social media and smartphone distractions. These distractions reduce attention spans, decrease deep learning, and contribute to cognitive overload. This study therefore calls for the integration of technology into education in a balanced way, highlighting digital literacy, mindful use, and distraction-reduction strategies. In the process, self-awareness, self-regulation, and responsible use will allow people to use its benefits rather than fall into disengagement and cynicism. Technology should serve as a tool for learning and growth-not a barrier to focus and intellectual development.

This study aims to analyze the obstacles in Social Studies (IPS) learning related to global issues influenced by technological advancement through a literature review method. Social Studies plays an essential role in shaping students’ understanding of social, economic, cultural, and political life while fostering global awareness in the digital era. However, in practice, IPS learning often faces various challenges that reduce its effectiveness and attractiveness. One of the main problems is students ’low interestin IPS, as it is often perceived as boring and overly theoretical, combined with the influence of technology that diverts students’ attention toward digital entertainment. Other contributing factors include non-interactive teaching methods, limited learning facilities, unconducive classroom environments, and a lack of parental support. Through a comprehensive literature review, this study found that relevant strategies to overcome these issues include Project-Based Learning, Technology Integration, and Contextual Approaches. These strategies enable students to learn actively, critically, and collaboratively by linking IPS material to global issues and real-world phenomena. The recommended solutions include implementing project-based education, utilizing interactive digital media, and fostering intercultural dialogue within the learning process. The results of this study are expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of adaptive IPS learning models in response to technological progress, as well as practical benefits for teachers, schools, and policymakers in creating Social Studies learning that is engaging, meaningful, and relevant to the global challenges of the 21st century.

Maternal reproductive health is a critical factor in reducing Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) and Infant Mortality Rate (IMR). Data from Deli Tua Primary Health Center shows that K4 coverage reached only 78% with prenatal class participation at 40%, still below the national target. Low knowledge among pregnant women about reproductive health is one of the main causes. This Community Service Student Creativity Program (PKM-M) aims to improve reproductive health knowledge through innovative and interactive prenatal class improvement. The implementation method includes developing educational media (modules, posters, videos), conducting classes with participatory learning methods, and evaluation through pre-post tests. The program was conducted over 5 months targeting 30 pregnant women divided into 3 groups, each attending 6 sessions. Materials covered physiological changes during pregnancy, nutrition, reproductive hygiene, danger signs, childbirth preparation, and postpartum care. Results showed a knowledge score increase of 42.5% (from 58.3±12.4 to 83.1±8.7) with significance p<0.001. Participation reached 86.7% with satisfaction level of 4.3/5.0. The program proved effective in improving reproductive health knowledge and can be replicated in other primary health centers with local context adaptation.

The learning process that engages students greatly influences their interest in learning. The integration of technology in education can enhance students’ interest and motivation to learn, and technological advancements provide significant support in delivering education on Islamic religious knowledge. Various social media platforms can serve as learning resources. With technological assistance, it becomes easier to spread religious knowledge in innovative and creative ways. This technology can also capture students’ attention, as it enables the creation of animated videos to enhance students’ comprehension of religious knowledge. An example of such a platform that can serve as an educational resource is YouTube Kabi. YouTube Kabi is an interactive medium that offers engaging audio-visual content with animations that capture students’ interest. The delivery of Sirah Nabawiyah material can be accomplished easily because this application can be accessed on laptops or smartphones. The purpose of this study is to examine the utilization of YouTube Kabi in teaching Sirah Nabawiyah material. The method employed in this study is qualitative with a descriptive approach. This research is field-based, and the data collection process involves observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings of this study demonstrate that YouTube Kabi serves as an example of an Islamic educational resource that can enhance students’ motivation to learn, especially in learning Sirah Nabawiyah material, because during the learning process, students demonstrate enthusiasm and engagement.

The presence of NCT Dream in Indonesia for their concert titled "The Dream Show" has become one of the K-Pop phenomena frequently discussed on social media. Fan engagement in their idol's concerts is linked to subjective well-being. Unfortunately, not all fans can attend The Dream Show concerts in person, so they tend to access social media intensively due to the feeling of FMO they experience. This research was conducted to determine the relationship between Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) and Subjective Well-Being in NCT Dream fans. This study used a purposive sampling technique and involved 169 NCT Dream fans residing in Jabodetabek, aged 18-25 years, and active on social media. The measurement tools used in this study were the Fear of Missing Out Scale (9 items, α = 0.877), the Satisfaction with Life Scale-Indonesia (5 items, α = 0.744), and the Positive and Negative Affects Schedule (9 items, α = 0.798 for the positive dimension and 9 items, α = 0.854 for the negative dimension). The results of the correlation analysis showed no relationship between Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) and Subjective Well-Being (r = -0,014, p = 0,430, p > 0,05).

This study aims to describe the use of Powtoon media in increasing student learning motivation in narrative text learning. The location of this research took place on grade X students of SMK Negeri 1 Bokat in the 2024/2025 Academic Year. Data were obtained through observation, questionnaires, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively qualitatively. The results of the study indicate that the use of Powtoon media can be applied as a means to significantly increase student learning motivation. Attractive visual displays, dynamic animations, and audio support make the learning process more interactive, fun, and easy to understand. Students appear more focused, active, and enthusiastic in participating in learning activities. Before the use of Powtoon, learning narrative text tended to be monotonous and less interesting. However, after the application of this media, students showed increased interest, involvement, and understanding of the material. Thus, the use of Powtoon can be an alternative learning media that is effective in increasing student learning motivation in learning narrative text.

Literature is not only a source of entertainment, but also a tool for contemplating human life that is full of internal conflicts and psychological issues. Short stories as a type of literature often present the realities of life in a concise yet meaningful way, making them interesting to analyze with a variety of scientific methods. This research focuses on the short story "Happiness That Kills" by applying two main approaches, namely the analysis of intrinsic elements and literary psychology. This story depicts a happy state that appears from the outside, but actually hides the emotional burden experienced by the main character, Malla. The method applied in this study is qualitative descriptive with literature study techniques, which is oriented towards the introduction of themes, plots, characters, settings, and mandates, as well as exploring the psychological dynamics of characters using Freud's psychoanalytic theory. The results of the study show that the internal conflicts in this story arise from the battle between the id, ego, and superego, especially when Malla struggles to maintain harmony in her family at the expense of herself. Overall, this short story shows that forced happiness can lead to suffering. By combining structural and psychological analysis, this study reveals the deep meaning related to social pressures, inner struggles, and humanitarian messages that the author seeks to convey. It is hoped that the results of this research can contribute to the study of literature, especially in understanding the relationship between story structure and the psychological condition of characters in contemporary literary works.

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women, largely due to delayed diagnosis. Early detection through Clinical Breast Examination (CBE/SADANIS) is an important strategy to identify breast cancer at an early stage. However, the level of knowledge and awareness of Women of Reproductive Age regarding SADANIS remains low. This Community Service activity aimed to improve knowledge and awareness of SADANIS among Women of Reproductive Age through health education at PMB Rama Agustina. The activity was conducted through preparation, implementation, and evaluation stages. Health education was delivered using interactive lectures and discussions, supported by educational media such as leaflets and posters. Evaluation was carried out using pre-test and post-test questionnaires to assess changes in participants’ knowledge. The results showed an improvement in participants’ knowledge and a positive change in attitudes toward the importance of early breast cancer detection. In addition, participants demonstrated increased interest and willingness to undergo SADANIS examinations, either at the midwifery practice or at nearby primary healthcare centers. In conclusion, this activity was effective as a promotive and preventive effort to support early detection of breast cancer among women of reproductive age.

The waste problem is still an environmental issue that requires serious attention, especially regarding the low level of public awareness in sorting organic and inorganic waste at its source. Environmental education needs to be given from an early age to form attitudes and behavior that care for the environment in a sustainable manner. This community service activity aims to increase the understanding and awareness of grade III–IV elementary school children towards sorting organic and inorganic waste through a game-based learning approach. The activity was carried out in the Bojongsari area, Depok, involving 10 children as participants. The methods used include delivering interactive material, waste sorting competitions through the Eco-Race Little game, and making mini posters with environmental themes. The results of the activity showed that around 90% of participants were able to differentiate and sort organic and inorganic waste correctly. Apart from increasing cognitive understanding, this activity also fosters an attitude of cooperation, creativity and concern for the environment. Thus, the Little Eco-Race activity is considered effective as a fun and applicable environmental education model for elementary school age children.

This community service initiative provides a comprehensive business analysis to evaluate financial feasibility, aiming to mitigate potential losses and ensure operational viability. By offering concrete data on business prospects and challenges, this analysis serves as a strategic guide for resource allocation and market targeting, while simultaneously enhancing attractiveness to potential investors. The program was conducted in the South Nunukan District, Nunukan Regency, North Kalimantan. As Indonesia's 34th province and a strategic border region, North Kalimantan faces significant challenges in food security due to limited supply chains. A central component of this study is the Break-Even Point (BEP) analysis—the threshold at which a business incurs neither profit nor loss. The BEP analysis provides critical insights into the relationship between pricing, operational costs, sales volume, and production levels. Consequently, it serves as a vital decision-making tool for business owners to optimize profitability. The results of this study demonstrate that, despite the continued use of traditional methods, the polyculture system remains highly profitable and sustainable for the local community.

Students have a strategic role as agents of change that requires adequate leadership and managerial skills. Formal learning in the classroom has not been able to fully develop these practical skills. This community service activity aims to improve the basic management skills of students at the Faculty of Computer Science, Universitas Dian Nuswantoro through Basic Student Management Skills Training (LKMM TD) with the theme Sailing Beyond Limits. The implementation method uses a Participatory Learning Action approach that includes problem identification, strategic planning, activity implementation, and joint evaluation. The activity was attended by 193 students from student organizations and general students. The learning process was carried out through lectures, case studies, discussions, group work, and pre- and post-tests. The evaluation results showed a significant increase in participant capacity, marked by an increase in the average score from 68.21 percent in the pre-test to 91.69 percent. LKMM TD activities effectively equip students with managerial, leadership, communication, and motivational control skills as provisions for carrying out the role of student agents of change.

The era of globalization and the rapid advancement of information technology have transformed the landscape of dakwah (Islamic propagation), shifting from conventional pulpits to virtual communication platforms (social media, podcasts, streaming). This transition, in line with the Diffusion of Innovation Theory, enables Islamic messages to reach a broad audience without geographical boundaries. Digital dakwah is highly relevant and urgent to research given the dominant use of social media by Muslim Youth, a group that seeks attention but also possesses a tendency toward critical thinking. This research has a dual aim: (1) to analyze the Interpretation of Muslim Youth towards virtual dakwah studies, and (2) to analyze the Effectiveness of Implementing Dakwah Studies through social media platforms. The accessibility of fragmented and competitive content makes the interpretation process active and crucial, where youth are no longer passive recipients but choose sources based on algorithms and their own interests. This study uses the Constructivism Paradigm to understand a dynamic and complex social reality, employing a Descriptive Qualitative Approach and the Online Ethnography Method. Data is collected through Observation, Interviews, and Documentation, with Data Triangulation (source, technique, and time) to ensure the validity of the findings. Social media holds great potential as an effective and inclusive dakwah tool. However, the effectiveness of its expansion must be balanced with the quality of the content and the capacity of Muslim Youth to perform critical, contextual, and responsible interpretation.

Background: Hypertension remains a major public health problem, particularly in primary health care settings. The coexistence of diabetes mellitus may contribute to increased hypertension severity; however, evidence from primary care data in Indonesia remains limited. Objective: This study aimed to examine the association between diabetes mellitus and hypertension severity among patients attending a primary health care center in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using secondary data obtained from medical records at a primary health care center in 2025. A total of 84 patients with hypertension were included using total sampling. Hypertension severity was classified into stage 1 and stage 2. Bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test as appropriate, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. Results: Of the 84 participants, 33.3% had diabetes mellitus. Stage 2 hypertension was more prevalent than stage 1 hypertension. Diabetes mellitus was significantly associated with hypertension severity (p = 0.029), with a higher proportion of patients with diabetes mellitus presenting with stage 2 hypertension. Conclusion: Diabetes mellitus was significantly associated with greater hypertension severity in a primary health care setting. These findings highlight the importance of integrated management of diabetes mellitus in patients with hypertension at the prizary care level.
