This study examines the strategic role of management psychology in enhancing educational institution quality through optimizing teacher performance. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach via library research—analyzing recent journals, books, and sources from 2021–2026—data were processed using content analysis techniques, encompassing systematic identification, categorization, and interpretation of prior findings to reveal patterns, relationships, and research gaps. Results indicate that psychological factors such as work motivation, mental well-being, supportive leadership, and conducive work climate significantly shape teachers' behaviors and performance, fostering effective and sustainable learning environments. Integrating management psychology principles proves essential for holistic human resource management in education, offering practical implications for school leaders' policies to build high-quality educational systems. In addition, the study emphasizes that consistent professional development and emotional support systems for teachers further strengthen institutional effectiveness and improve instructional outcomes. Therefore, management psychology serves as a fundamental framework in aligning organizational goals with teacher well-being and performance enhancement in educational settings.

The postpartum period is a critical phase in which mothers experience physiological and psychological recovery. Bengkung, a traditional abdominal binding cloth, is commonly used by Indonesian postpartum mothers, but inappropriate application may cause discomfort and may not support recovery optimally. This community service program aimed to improve postpartum mothers' knowledge and skills regarding safe and appropriate bengkung use. The activity was conducted through counseling, demonstration, guided practice, and evaluation using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach involving 30 postpartum mothers at a community-based maternal health service setting. The educational content covered postpartum physiological changes, indications and contraindications, safe binding principles, hygiene, duration of use, warning signs, and when to seek professional care. The evaluation showed an increase in good knowledge from 26.7% before education to 86.7% after education, and correct practice skills increased from 20.0% to 83.3%. Participants also reported better understanding of avoiding overly tight binding, maintaining breathing comfort, and discontinuing use when pain, shortness of breath, excessive bleeding, or wound problems occur. This activity indicates that structured education and demonstration can strengthen postpartum self-care and support safer integration of traditional practices into maternal health services.

Mental health issues among university students have become a growing concern, driven by academic pressures, career uncertainties, and complex social transitions. However, a large proportion of students remains reluctant to seek professional psychological support due to social stigma and limited access to institutional counseling services. This study proposes the design and implementation of an Android-based chatbot application that integrates mood tracking and sentiment analysis to continuously monitor the emotional states of university students. The system employs a fine-tuned RoBERTa (Robustly Optimized BERT Pretraining Approach) model trained on the EmoContext conversational dataset (SemEval-2019 Task 3), comprising 30,160 labeled three-turn dialogue instances across four emotion classes: angry, happy, sad, and others. The model was fine-tuned for four epochs using the AdamW optimizer with a learning rate of 2e-5 and a maximum sequence length of 128 tokens. Evaluation on a held-out validation set of 6,032 samples yielded an overall accuracy of 88.28%, a macro-average F1-score of 0.87, and a weighted-average F1-score of 0.88. Per-class F1-scores were 0.89 (angry), 0.83 (happy), 0.91 (others), and 0.86 (sad). The classified emotion is transmitted in real time to the chatbot response logic, which generates empathetic replies and personalized relaxation recommendations based on the detected mood. Primary data collection through questionnaires and interviews with 62 and 19 university students respectively confirmed the need for accessible digital mental health support. The results demonstrate that RoBERTa-based fine-tuning on conversational data provides a reliable foundation for real-time emotion-aware mental health chatbot systems.

Employee engagement is critical to organizational performance, employee well-being, and long-term sustainability. In hybrid work contexts, generational differences have become increasingly evident, particularly between Generation Y and Generation Z employees. Generation Y tends to emphasize work–life balance, career development, and meaningful collaboration, while Generation Z prioritizes flexibility, job security, digital integration, and the use of technology in the workplace. This study adopts a systematic literature review (SLR) approach by synthesizing findings from various peer-reviewed studies related to employee engagement and hybrid work practices across generations. The review focuses on identifying key factors that influence employee engagement in modern work environments. The results indicate that hybrid work can significantly enhance employee engagement when organizations provide flexibility, autonomy, adequate technological support, professional development opportunities, and fair reward systems. In addition, supportive organizational culture and effective leadership are important in maintaining employee motivation and commitment. However, differences in generational expectations require organizations to implement adaptive managerial strategies, including flexible work policies, personalized communication approaches, and inclusive leadership practices to strengthen employee engagement across different generations in hybrid work settings.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of legal capacity-building for Temporary Land Deed Officials (PPATS) in the preparation of land deeds in Aceh Besar Regency, Aceh Province. The research employs an empirical juridical method with a qualitative approach, utilizing data collection techniques including interviews, observation, and document analysis. This approach enables a comprehensive examination of both the normative framework and its practical implementation in the field. The findings indicate that the effectiveness of capacity-building for PPATS remains suboptimal, as the existing programs are largely administrative, incidental, and insufficient in addressing substantive legal aspects. Several factors influence this condition, including the non-legal educational background of PPATS, prevailing community legal culture, limitations in training programs, weak institutional coordination, and social pressures encountered in the practice of land deed preparation. These challenges contribute to a low level of material competence and legal prudence among PPATS in carrying out their duties. Accordingly, there is a need for a more sustainable, contextual, and competency-based capacity-building model to enhance the professionalism of PPATS. Such an approach is essential to strengthen their substantive legal understanding, improve the quality of land deeds, and ultimately support the realization of legal certainty in land administration services.

Financial reporting integrity is heavily reliant on audit quality. This research explores the effect of auditor attributes, specifically integrity and professional background, on audit standards in Timor-Leste. Quantitative data was collected from a survey of 60 auditors and analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression techniques. The findings suggest that auditor ethics has a substantial positive impact on audit quality, indicating that conformity to professional ethical guidelines is vital for enhancing audit results. In contrast, experience in auditing does not demonstrate a statistically significant impact on the quality of audits. Visualization through scatter plots further supports the notion that the relationship between ethics and audit quality is more robust than that of other auditor characteristics. Strengthening ethical standards in the auditing profession is crucial to enhancing audit quality, as these findings demonstrate. This study contributes to the body of research on auditing behavior by presenting empirical findings from a developing institutional setting. The findings also have practical implications for policymakers and auditing bodies in Timor-Leste.

This research is based on the reality that classroom management often tests teachers' emotional stability, especially when dealing with highly active students. This study focuses on how teachers use emotional intelligence to control themselves when facing challenging learning situations. The purpose of this study is to describe the forms of emotional regulation carried out by teachers and their influence on the effectiveness of classroom management. The research was conducted using a qualitative descriptive approach through observations and interviews with teachers. The results show that effective emotional management is carried out through several methods, such as increasing self-awareness to recognize stress triggers, pausing before responding to student behavior, and trying to understand the background of student activity through empathy. Teachers with good emotional intelligence tend to be able to direct student activity into more positive learning participation, rather than responding to it with reactive or authoritarian responses. This study emphasizes the importance of strengthening psychological aspects and emotional management skills in teacher professional development programs. Emotional maturity not only helps create a more harmonious classroom atmosphere but also forms the basis for inclusive learning interactions and supports the continuous development of student character.

This study aims to examine the service performance of the Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection Agency (DPPPA) of Gorontalo Regency in handling cases of violence against children. The study focuses on addressing the service performance from several aspects; (a) productivity, (b) service quality, (c) responsiveness, (d) responsibility, and € accountability. This study was conducted based on the persistently high number of cases of violence against children, which require effective, responsive, and accountable public service handling from the local government. This study employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model, consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that service productivity is fairly good, as reflected in a clear case-handling flow, though it remains constrained by limited human resources and cross-sector coordination. Service quality is considered positive in terms of empathetic attitudes and the availability of private service spaces; however, the quality of physical facilities and the availability of professional personnel still need improvement. Officers’ responsiveness is relatively quick at the initial stage, but follow-up information on cases is not consistently provided. Responsibility for implementing procedures is in accordance with standard operating procedures, although completion times are often lengthy. Meanwhile, administrative accountability functions well, but the transparency of information to victims still needs to be strengthened.

The case of medical malpractice involving a toddler in Bima has attracted public attention and raised the urgency of evaluating legal accountability mechanisms in healthcare. This study aims to analyze the law enforcement process and the forms of legal responsibility that can be imposed on medical personnel and healthcare institutions suspected of involvement. Using a normative juridical approach, this study examines relevant laws, doctrines, and legal literature, including provisions in the Medical Practice Law, the Health Law, the Hospital Law, and the Criminal Code. The results indicate that law enforcement in malpractice cases can be pursued through administrative, civil, and criminal channels, depending on the level of negligence and the resulting consequences. Medical personnel can be held personally liable for violations of professional standards, while healthcare institutions can be held accountable based on the principle of vicarious liability. This study concludes that the case in Bima underscores the importance of strengthening regulations, improving medical service standards, and ensuring transparency in law enforcement to protect patient rights, particularly children.

Emergency medical care constitutes a fundamental patient right and an institutional obligation of hospitals that must be provided without temporal discrimination. However, in practice and public discourse, the meaning of “physician presence” is often narrowly reduced to physical presence alone, giving rise to allegations of medical negligence, particularly during weekends or outside regular working hours. This distorted understanding risks generating legal injustice, undermining the dignity of the medical profession, and encouraging defensive medical practice. This article aims to analyze the meaning of physician presence from a health law perspective through theoretical, normative, and systemic approaches, by distinguishing models of physician presence as on-site, on-call, and home-call/teleconsultation in emergency care services. This study employs a normative legal research method using statutory, conceptual, and limited comparative approaches. The analysis examines Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health, Government Regulation Number 28 of 2024, as well as health law literature and emergency care practices. The analysis demonstrates that, in legal terms, physician presence is not synonymous with physical presence, but rather should be understood as process-based professional responsibility, provided that care is delivered in accordance with professional standards, service standards, and an adequate triage system. Physician presence must be reconstructed as the presence of professional responsibility within an integrated emergency care system. Legal assessment in health law should be grounded in process and system integrity, rather than solely on clinical outcomes or public perception.
