Introduction: The Beyond Use Date (BUD) is the expiration date for a drug product after its primary packaging has been opened, mixed, or prepared. The BUD differs from the expiration date printed on the manufacturer's packaging and is not always listed on the drug, so many people still don't fully understand this concept.Objective: To evaluate the level of knowledge of Prolanis patients regarding the Beyond Use Date (BUD) at the Purwokerto Utara I Community Health Center before and after being given counseling. Methods: A quantitative descriptive method with a cross-sectional design was used on 20 Prolanis patient respondents. Primary data collection consisted of questionnaires administered before (pretest) and after (posttest) the lecture-based counseling using flyers. Data analysis was performed using univariate analysis. Results: The level of knowledge of Prolanis patients regarding Beyond Use Date before counseling showed that the majority were in the poor category with 16 respondents (80.0%) and the sufficient category with 4 respondents (20.0%). After being given counseling, there was an increase in the good category with 6 respondents (30.0%), but the majority were still in the poor category with 14 respondents (70.0%).Conclusion: The level of knowledge of Prolanis patients regarding Beyond Use Date (BUD) at Purwokerto Utara I Health Center before counseling was mostly in the poor category, and after counseling there was an increase although most were still in the poor category.

Classroom management is an important aspect of creating a conducive learning environment and supporting the achievement of learning objectives. This study aims to analyze the permissive approach and the cookbook approach in classroom management based on the results of an interview with a teacher. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with interviews used as the primary data collection technique. The findings indicate that the teacher does not fully implement either the permissive approach or the cookbook approach. The teacher provides students with freedom within limits that support the learning process while still enforcing agreed-upon classroom rules. In addition, the teacher does not rely on rigid procedures but instead adapts classroom management strategies to students' characteristics and the situations encountered in the classroom. The study reveals that the teacher tends to adopt an adaptive classroom management approach by combining firmness, empathy, and flexibility, thereby creating an orderly, comfortable, and effective learning environment that supports the achievement of educational objectives.

Indonesia, as the largest archipelagic state in the world, lies on international trade and transportation routes and possesses abundant natural resources. This strategic position creates both opportunities and challenges, particularly in the maritime domain, which requires the Indonesian Navy’s significant contribution in force deployment planning to counter future threats and disruptions. The evolving strategic environment necessitates specific policies and strategies for the Navy to enhance its strength in safeguarding sovereignty, territorial integrity, and national security. This development is pursued through the establishment of the Minimum Essential Force (MEF), a fundamental standard that defines the minimum level of naval capability required to effectively execute missions and functions. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method, using primary data from expert and user interviews as well as secondary data from observation and documentation, to analyze the selection of helicopter escorts utilized by the Indonesian Navy.

Human trafficking is a crime that causes physical, psychological, social, and economic harm to victims, thereby requiring effective legal protection. This study aims to analyze the role of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) in the implementation of restitution for victims of human trafficking in Decision Number 45/Pid.Sus/2023 of the Bajawa District Court and to examine the obstacles encountered in its implementation. This research employs an empirical juridical method with a socio-legal approach. Data were obtained through interviews and library research, then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The results indicate that LPSK has carried out its role through legal assistance, physical and psychological protection, psychosocial rehabilitation, and the submission of restitution claims for victims. However, the implementation of restitution has not been fully effective due to several obstacles, including weak coordination among law enforcement agencies, limited restitution execution mechanisms, limited institutional resources, and low victim awareness regarding restitution rights. Therefore, stronger coordination, supervision, and restitution enforcement mechanisms are needed to ensure effective victim protection and victim-oriented recovery in cases of human trafficking.

Within the framework of Islamic family law (fiqh munakahat), the issue of nusyuz plays a significant role, as it is closely related to maintaining harmony and stability in the marital relationship. Generally, nusyuz is often defined as a form of a wife’s disobedience toward her husband. However, Islamic jurisprudence acknowledges that nusyuz can also be committed by a husband if he fails to fulfill the rights, responsibilities, and obligations he owes to his wife, in accordance with the principles of Sharia. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the concept of nusyuz in the context of family life, from the perspective of fiqh munakahat. The discussion covers the meaning and characteristics of nusyuz, its legal basis in Islamic sources, the factors contributing to its emergence, its various manifestations in married life, its implications for family relationships, and existing methods for addressing this issue. This study employs a literature review method supported by a descriptive qualitative approach, drawing on relevant literature from classical and contemporary Islamic legal sources. The results indicate that resolving issues of nusyuz should be approached through a gradual and constructive process, including counseling, dialogue, mediation, consultation, and reconciliation. These steps aim to restore mutual understanding and strengthen family unity. Therefore, raising awareness of each spouse’s rights and obligations is crucial to preventing nusyuz and creating a household filled with peace, love, mutual respect, and intimacy.

This study is motivated by the rapid proliferation of hadith dissemination in the digital era, which has Living hadith in a socio-cultural context is a contemporary approach in hadith studies that emphasizes how the traditions of Prophet Muhammad SAW are practiced, internalized, and brought to life within society. This study does not only focus on textual aspects such as sanad (chain of transmission) and matn (text), but also on its practical manifestations in the form of traditions, rituals, and local culture. This paper aims to analyze the epistemology of living hadith, examine the theoretical frameworks utilized, and observe its relevance in modern society, particularly within Muslim communities. The research method employed is qualitative with a descriptive-analytical approach based on a literature review. The findings indicate that living hadith serves as a bridge between normative texts and dynamic empirical reality. In practice, living hadith manifests in oral traditions such as lectures and religious advice, written traditions like hadith calligraphy, and practical traditions like tahlilan and grave visitation (ziarah kubur). Thus, living hadith allows Islamic teachings to remain contextual, adaptive, and relevant in facing modern socio-cultural transformations.

In the post-pandemic period, the learning process at the Madrasah Tsanawiyah level continues to face significant challenges, particularly the emergence of disparities in student learning outcomes in general subjects. Many students have not yet fully returned to an active and focused learning pattern, resulting in uneven learning outcomes. Under these circumstances, self-directed learning has become an increasingly prominent aspect, as it relates to students’ ability to manage their own learning process without relying too heavily on teacher guidance. This study aims to examine how learning autonomy influences MTs students’ learning outcomes by reviewing existing studies. The research employs a literature review method using a qualitative descriptive approach, drawing on scientific sources from the past five years. The data were analyzed through content analysis to identify patterns of relationships emerging from previous studies. The results of the study indicate that learning autonomy tends to have a positive correlation with improved learning outcomes, although the magnitude of the effect is not always consistent across every study. Students who are better able to manage their own learning steps generally appear more active, more focused in their studies, and more aware of the processes they are undergoing. Nevertheless, the development of learning autonomy does not occur in isolation, as it remains influenced by the school’s learning environment and the way teachers manage instruction. Thus, it is clear that fostering independent learning is a key factor in efforts to improve student learning outcomes in the post-pandemic era.

The fast fashion industry has actually become the second largest contributor to textile waste in the world due to rapid production cycles, high consumer demand, and the use of synthetic materials that are difficult to biodegrade. This phenomenon causes serious environmental impacts such as water pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, accumulation of solid waste, and microplastic pollution that threatens marine ecosystems. In Indonesia, although environmental regulations such as Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management and Law Number 18 of 2008 concerning Waste Management exist, the implementation of fast fashion waste management still faces various obstacles. This study aims to analyze the implementation of waste management regulations in the fast fashion industry in Indonesia and to examine why the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) mechanism is necessary as a legal instrument for textile waste management. The method used is normative juridical with an ecological approach, utilizing primary and secondary legal materials, as well as qualitative-descriptive and comparative analysis with France, the Netherlands, and Sweden. The findings reveal four main legal gaps: the absence of a definition for post-consumer textile waste, the lack of a binding take-back mechanism for producers, weak fiscal instruments supporting EPR, and the absence of ecodesign obligations. The implication of this study highlights the need for regulatory reconstruction that specifically addresses the responsibility of fast fashion producers throughout the product life cycle to achieve more effective and sustainable waste management.               

The empowerment of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) is a strategic effort to enhance the capacity and independence of business actors in supporting sustainable economic development. However, based on data from Rumah BUMN Aceh Utara, out of a total of 413 assisted MSMEs, only 9.16% have successfully upgraded their business status, while 90.84% have not yet done so. This study aims to describe MSME empowerment through the assistance program of Rumah BUMN Aceh Utara and to identify its supporting and inhibiting factors. This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving Rumah BUMN managers and MSME actors, and were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The results show that MSME empowerment in Rumah BUMN Aceh Utara is based on Suharto’s theory, which consists of three main approaches, namely empowering through training and mentoring that contributes to the improvement of business actors’ capacities, protecting through business legality facilitation, and supporting through the provision of production facilities, packaging machines, access to capital, promotion, and MSME gallery facilities, although these have not yet been fully optimized. The supporting factors of MSME empowerment include institutional support, technological development, and MSME participation, while the inhibiting factors include limited human resources, limited funding, and low participation of some MSME actors. This study emphasizes the importance of improving the quality of mentoring, optimizing the utilization of facilities, and increasing MSME participation to support the sustainability of empowerment programs.

This study aims to identify and explain the factors that influence business management, particularly through a case study of a shipping company.

Organizational structure contributes to the clarity of roles, responsibilities, and work coordination. Leadership affects direction, decision-making, and employee motivation, while communication supports information flow, coordination, and organizational effectiveness. The managerial implications of this study indicate that efficient business management requires a well-structured organization, effective leadership, and clear communication to support better operational performance and decision-making

The urgency of this research stems from the knowledge gap regarding contextual factors contributing to the underuse of learning media in rural elementary schools, which has not been adequately addressed in previous research, which has tended to focus on urban contexts. This study aims to examine teachers' perceptions at Sugayang Public Elementary School regarding the underuse of learning media in the learning process, as well as the factors that contribute to it. The method used was a descriptive qualitative method, utilizing in-depth interviews as a data collection technique. The data were then analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques according to Miles and Huberman. The results showed that teachers experienced difficulties in using technology, difficulties in creating learning media, and the perception that using media was time-consuming. This reveals an important pattern that the underuse of learning media is a systematic problem rooted in the TPACK gap that is not supported by practical time management solutions. These findings imply that changes in learning practices will not occur simply through the provision of generic technology tools or training; rather, bottom-up and contextual solutions are needed. The novelty of this research lies in the in-depth qualitative approach applied to the under-researched context of rural elementary schools, which has not been studied before. This research contributes through recommendations for the implementation of a peer-mentoring program and the development of a ready-to-use digital learning media bank, thus offering valuable insights for future research with relevant stakeholders.

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by deviation in attitudes, thoughts and behaviors, and can cause positive and negative symptoms. One of the most frequently occurring negative symptoms is social withdrawal, which leads to the problem of Social Isolation: Withdrawal. Social isolation is a condition that causes individuals to experience a decline or even inability to interact with others and their environment. The purpose of this case study was to apply nursing care to patients with social isolation: withdrawal due to undifferentiated schizophrenia in Gatotkaca Ward of RSJD dr. Amino Gondohutomo, Central Java Province. This scientific paper was written using a descriptive method in the form of a case study through the nursing process approach. Data collection methods used were interview, observation, documentation study, and literature study. Nursing diagnoses that emerged in the patient with Social Isolation: Withdrawal were Social Isolation as the Core Problem, Low Self-Esteem as the Cause, Risk of Hallucination as the Effect, and Self-Care Deficit as a concurrent problem. Interventions were only carried out on Social Isolation and Self-Care Deficit problems, consisting of SP 1 through SP 3 for Social Isolation and SP 2 for Self-Care Deficit: Grooming. After nursing implementation for 4 days, of the 4 nursing diagnoses that emerged, only 2 nursing diagnoses were intervened, namely Social Isolation and Self-Care Deficit. SP 1 through SP 3 for Social Isolation and SP2 for Self-Care Deficit: Grooming were competently achieved. This indicates that the goals of the Implementation Strategy provided were achieved cognitively, affectively, and psychomotorically.

Vomitus is the forceful expulsion of gastric contents through the mouth, commonly occurring in children as a clinical manifestation of gastrointestinal diseases. Based on medical records of RSUD dr. Soeselo, Tegal Regency, vomitus cases increased to 355 cases in 2025. Therefore, comprehensive nursing care is needed to address problems arising from vomiting in children. This study used a descriptive method in the form of a case study through a nursing process approach, aimed at describing nursing care for a pediatric patient with vomitus. Three nursing diagnoses were identified in An. A with vomitus: Nausea related to gastric irritation/stimulation of the vomiting center, Risk of Fluid Imbalance related to repeated vomiting, and Knowledge Deficit related to lack of information exposure. Nursing interventions provided included Vomiting Management, Fluid Management, and Health Education. After three days of nursing implementation, all three nursing diagnoses were resolved, marked by the disappearance of nausea, improved appetite, normal hydration status (moist mucosa, good skin turgor, pulse 88x/minute), and the patient's mother and patient being able to understand and re-explain health education material about vomitus.

This study aims to analyze the strategies applied by teachers in shaping students' green behavior in grade IV of SDN Sarakan III, Sepatan District, Tangerang Regency. The approach used is descriptive qualitative. The research subjects include grade IV teachers, students, and the school principal. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and document studies. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results show that teachers implement five main strategies, namely: (1) designing learning according to the objectives and characteristics of students; (2) encouraging active student participation; (3) presenting material contextually; (4) using Project Based Learning (PjBL) methods and the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach; and (5) habituating environmentally caring behavior in everyday school life. The implementation of students' green behavior has been observed in the aspects of knowledge, attitude, and action, although consistency still needs to be improved, especially due to limited school facilities and differences in students' levels of awareness.

This study aims to analyze the impact of nickel mining activities on the religious life of the community in West Kabaena District, Bombana Regency. The research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach to obtain an in-depth understanding of the social and religious changes occurring within the community. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving religious leaders, community leaders, youth representatives, and mining workers. The collected data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that nickel mining activities have not diminished the community’s understanding of environmental stewardship as a religious responsibility. However, increasing economic dependence on the mining sector has gradually reduced public concern for environmental preservation. In the religious sphere, mining activities have contributed positively by supporting the construction and improvement of worship facilities and religious programs. Nevertheless, work-related demands have reduced the participation of some community members in religious activities. Furthermore, mining activities have affected social solidarity within the community. Values such as brotherhood, mutual cooperation, and social care remain preserved, although changes in social interaction patterns and widening economic disparities have become increasingly apparent. The study concludes that nickel mining activities generate both positive and negative impacts on the religious life of the West Kabaena community. Therefore, balanced policies integrating economic development, environmental sustainability, and religious values are essential to promote sustainable community welfare and strengthen social harmony.

This study aims to provide the benefits of a psychological approach in education through a learning adjustment strategy based on the developmental stage and age limits of students. The study used a library method with a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach through a review of educational psychology literature, cognitive development theory, national education regulations, and various relevant scientific journals. The results of the study indicate that learning effectiveness is greatly influenced by the alignment between material, teaching methods, and students' psychological readiness. Piaget's cognitive development theory indicates that elementary school-aged children are at the concrete operational stage, thus requiring contextual learning, the use of real-life media, and active interaction in the learning process. This study also found that age limits in the education system have an important function as a means of synchronizing students' biological, emotional, social, and intellectual readiness with learning targets. Through the "Psychological Navigation" model, this study offers a strategic framework for educators to create adaptive, humanistic learning that is oriented towards optimal student development. The implications of this study emphasize that teachers need to understand the individual characteristics of students so that the educational process does not only focus on academic achievement, but also supports the psychological well-being and character formation of students as a whole.

Vandalism is a social problem affecting public space quality, urban aesthetics, and the effectiveness of public facilities utilization. Karawang Regency, as a developing industrial area, faces challenges related to increasing acts of vandalism targeting public facilities, open spaces, and government and private assets. This study aims to analyze preventive efforts carried out by the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) of Karawang Regency using J. Salusu’s public sector strategic management perspective. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving Satpol PP officers and public facility users. Data analysis consisted of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing with source, technique, and time triangulation. The findings indicate that preventive strategies have been implemented through four strategic management phases. In the identification phase, Satpol PP recognized vandalism patterns but lacked systematic mapping of vulnerable locations. In the development phase, institutional strengths existed alongside limitations in resources and innovation. In the resolution phase, strategies focused on socialization, routine patrols, and cross-sector collaboration. In implementation and evaluation, preventive programs operated adaptively but still encountered limitations in personnel capacity and public participation. Strengthening technology utilization, human resources, and collaborative governance is necessary to improve long-term preventive effectiveness.
