Turnover Intention influenced by a combination of individual, organizational, and work environment factors. In this context, psychological theories such as Herzberg's two-factor theory can help understand this dynamic by dividing factors that influence job satisfaction into motivators and hygiene factors. Motivators, such as recognition and achievement, contribute to higher job satisfaction, while hygiene factors, such as working conditions and management policies, play a role in preventing dissatisfaction. This study aims to explore the relationship between job satisfaction, job stress, managerial support, and employee engagement on turnover intention in various sectors. This study uses a quantitative approach with a Likert scale-based survey to collect data, which were analysed using Pearson correlation tests and multiple linear regression. The results showed that job satisfaction and managerial support have a significant negative relationship with turnover intention, while job stress shows a significant positive relationship. In addition, employee engagement through organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) has been shown to reduce turnover intention even though the level of job satisfaction is low. This study provides practical implications for organizations to design employee retention strategies through stress management, increasing job satisfaction, and managerial support. This study contributes to the enrichment of the literature on human resource management, particularly in understanding the dynamics of turnover intention, and recommends further research with a longitudinal approach to validate the results in other sectors.

A hedonic lifestyle is characterized by consumer behavior, a desire for social recognition, and a focus on personal pleasure. The main factors that influence this lifestyle include family upbringing, peer influence, and relationships with partners. The impact of hedonic behavior includes excessive spending on non-essential needs, dependence on social trends, and lack of awareness of financial management. Additionally, college students are often caught in a cycle of excessive consumption, driven by social media and online shopping trends. This research highlights the need for awareness of wise financial management and positive social influence to help students live more balanced lives.

Firm value is an overall measure of the economic value of a company that includes asset value, profit-making ability, and future growth potential. This study aims to analyze the effect of capital structure, ownership structure, and company characteristics on firm value with financial performance and earnings management as intervening variables in cement sub-sector manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2019-2023 period. The research method used is a quantitative method with a secondary data analysis approach obtained from the company's financial statements and annual reports. The results showed that capital structure has a significant negative effect on earnings management and financial performance, but not significant on firm value. Ownership structure is not significant to all variables. Firm characteristics have a significant positive effect on earnings management and firm value. Earnings management has a significant positive effect on firm value, while financial performance has a positive but insignificant relationship. These findings provide practical implications for company management in designing optimal financial strategies to improve company performance and value, as well as for investors in making investment decisions based on relevant financial indicators.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) on the Net Profit Margin (NPM) of PT Astra International Tbk, listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2023 period. This research employs a descriptive quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from the company's annual financial reports. Data analysis techniques include descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation test, and simple linear regression. The results show a negative relationship between DER and NPM, with a correlation coefficient of -0.726, indicating that an increase in DER tends to be followed by a decrease in NPM. However, this relationship is not statistically significant, with a p-value of 0.483. Regression analysis results reveal that DER can only explain 52.7% of the variation in NPM, while the remaining percentage is influenced by other variables outside this research model. Therefore, although capital structure plays a role in influencing profitability, other factors such as operational efficiency and cost management also need to be considered to improve the company's financial performance.

This study aims to explore the root growth patterns of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) cultivated in a polybag system, and examine the implications for nutrient absorption efficiency and plant survival. The method used was a systematic literature review, with narrative analysis of recent studies in the last five years. Data were analyzed to identify the relationship between root architecture, growing medium, and nutrient absorption efficiency.  The results showed that the polybag system, with its limited root growing space, promoted adaptation of root growth patterns, including an increase in lateral root density and a reduction in primary root length. Coconut fiber- and vermiculite-based growing media were shown to increase nutrient absorption capacity by up to 30%, while inoculation of rhizosphere microorganisms, such as mycorrhiza, increased phosphorus use efficiency by up to 25%. In addition, optimal root zone temperature plays an important role in supporting root metabolic activities.  The conclusion of this study confirms that optimizing root growth patterns through growing media, temperature management, and utilization of microorganisms can significantly increase the productivity of cucumber plants. These findings provide a basis for developing more efficient and sustainable cultivation strategies in modern horticultural systems.
