The rapid growth of financial technology has led to the emergence of digital wallets as an efficient and practical means of payment. One of the most widely used services in Indonesia is Shopeepay, particularly among Generation z, who are known for their adaptability to new technologies. This study aims to examine to influence of perceived usefulness (X1) and perceived risk (X2) on the intention to use digital wallets (Y), with Shopeepay payment method (M) as a moderating variable. This research employed a quantitative approach by distributing questionnaires to 60 University students who actively use Shopeepay. The collected data were analyzed using multiple linier regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The findings reveal that perceived usefulness has a positive and significant effect on the intention to use Shopeepay (sig. 0,004<0,05). Perceived risk also shows a significant effect in thr multiple regression test (sig. 0,003<0,05), but becomes insignificant when tested with MRA (sig. 0,094>0,05). This suggests that impact of risk tends to weaken when moderated by the payment methode. Furthermore, the Shopeepay payment method itself does not significantly influence user intention (sig. 0,067>0,05) collectively, perceived usefulness and perceived risk significantly affect the intention to use Shopeepay (sig. 0,001).

This study aims to analyze the transformation of the educational pattern at the Indonesian Naval Academy (AAL) from a four-year to a three-year system and its impact on graduate competencies and operational readiness. This educational system change responds to budget efficiency needs and accelerated officer formation filling, yet raises questions about the new system's ability to maintain the quality of officer education. The research employs a mixed methods approach with a concurrent embedded design, involving 250 respondents comprising graduates from both educational systems, AAL instructors, and unit commanders receiving graduates. Quantitative data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (independent sample t-test and regression), while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies analyzed using thematic analysis. Results indicate no significant difference in overall Grade Point Average (GPA) between the two groups (p=0.470), but significant differences in competency patterns emerged: four-year system graduates excelled in theoretical competencies (p=0.001), while three-year system graduates excelled in practical competencies (p=0.003). Operational readiness evaluation shows that four-year system graduates obtained higher scores (82.5) compared to three-year system graduates (78.3), with significant differences (p=0.012), particularly in strategic leadership and complex decision-making aspects. Qualitative analysis identified five major themes: high learning time pressure, orientation shift from comprehensive to pragmatic, gaps in character formation and corps values, concerns about theoretical understanding depth, and need for more intensive post-graduation mentoring programs. This study concludes that educational time compression successfully increased operational efficiency but involved trade-offs in learning depth and professional maturity. To optimize the three-year educational system, a comprehensive approach is required, including curriculum revision with integrated learning methods, utilization of modern learning technology, strengthening of leadership development programs, and development of continuous professional mentoring systems. The recommendations of this research are expected to provide input for AAL and the Indonesian Navy in refining the officer education system to produce officers who are not only technically competent but also mature in leadership and strong in character.

This meta-analysis provides an in-depth examination of the effectiveness of community-based interventions in alleviating collective trauma experienced by populations in conflict zones of the Middle East, compiling 47 empirical studies (N = 12,483) published between 2000 and 2023. The synthesis indicates a significant impact of community-based interventions on reducing PTSD symptoms, with a substantial effect size (d = 0.82, 95% CI [0.76, 0.88], p < .001) and moderate heterogeneity (I² = 68%), reflecting inter-study variation yet remaining within interpretable bounds. Among the strategies analysed, community psychosocial support programs demonstrated the most pronounced effectiveness (β = 0.74, p < .001), followed by collective narrative therapy (β = 0.68, p < .001) and family-based rehabilitation interventions (β = 0.59, p < .001), all underscoring the relevance of approaches rooted in social networks and interpersonal relations. Moderator analyses revealed that longer program duration, particularly interventions spanning at least 6 months (β = 0.71, p < .001), and active engagement of local leaders (β = 0.65, p < .001) were critical determinants of intervention success. Furthermore, meta-regression findings indicated a strong and consistent correlation between the intensity of community involvement and reductions in collective trauma symptoms (R² = 0.73, p < .001), highlighting that social participation is not merely complementary but constitutes the foundation of program efficacy. In the researchers' view, these findings extend the contributions of prior studies by Hassan et al. (2016) and Morrison & Marrison (2024) by affirming the central role of local wisdom in trauma recovery processes, while offering a conceptual contribution in the form of an integrative framework that merges psychosocial interventions with community cultural values. Consequently, these results provide not only an empirical basis for developing more effective trauma-healing programs in Middle Eastern conflict zones but also underscore the urgency of contextual adaptation to ensure that interventions meet the most essential needs of affected populations.
