This study aims to investigate the influence of audit committee characteristics—including the proportion of independent audit committee members, audit committee size, and the frequency of audit committee meetings—on the risk of financial statement fraud in companies in the real estate and infrastructure sectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2020 to 2024. This study is grounded in agency theory and signaling theory. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, involving 62 companies or 310 observations. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression via SPSS version 27. The findings of the study indicate that, collectively, the three audit committee characteristic variables, along with the control variables, have a significant impact on financial statement fraud risk. However, when examined individually, the proportion of independent audit committee members, the size of the audit committee, and the frequency of audit committee meetings do not show an influence. Meanwhile, the profitability control variable (ROA) showed an influence on financial statement fraud risk. This study concludes that the extent to which an audit committee can prevent fraud depends not only on quantitative factors such as the number of members or meeting frequency, but is also more influenced by the quality of the audit committee members’ capabilities and commitment in carrying out their oversight duties.

This study aims to investigate the impact of short-form video content on brand engagement and purchase intention among Generation Z in South Sumatra. In today’s fast-paced digital era, short-form video content promoted through social media platforms such as TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts has become a highly effective marketing tool. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method, involving 245 respondents aged 18 to 24 years who are active consumers of short-form video content. Data were collected through a questionnaire measured using a 5-point Likert scale, covering variables such as short-form video content, brand engagement, and purchase intention. The results indicate that entertaining, informative, and authentic short-form videos significantly influence brand engagement, which in turn impacts consumer purchase intention. Furthermore, brand engagement was found to mediate the relationship between short-form video content and purchase intention. Dimensions of short-form video content, such as entertainment value, informative content, and authenticity, play an important role in attracting attention and enhancing consumer engagement. These findings provide practical insights for marketers to design more effective marketing strategies, especially in reaching Generation Z consumers who tend to be more selective in consuming content.

This study is motivated by the importance of work effectiveness as a key indicator of organizational success in facing an increasingly complex and competitive work environment. Work discipline is viewed as one of the critical factors that can support the achievement of optimal work effectiveness. This study aims to analyze the relationship between work discipline and work effectiveness and to identify the factors influencing them within an organizational context. The method used is a Systematic Literature Review, which involves examining various relevant scientific articles through the stages of identification, selection, evaluation, and data synthesis. The results of the study indicate that work discipline plays a significant role in enhancing work effectiveness through adherence to rules, punctuality, responsibility, and consistency in task execution. Furthermore, work effectiveness can also foster the development of discipline through structured work systems and clear operational standards. The relationship between these two variables is reciprocal and influenced by factors such as leadership, organizational culture, motivation, human resource competencies, and the utilization of technology. The implications of this research underscore the importance of integrating work discipline and organizational systems to sustainably enhance work effectiveness.

The ICU is one of the largest clinical cost centers in hospitals due to its high demand for human resources, medical equipment, and operational costs. This situation emphasizes that intensive care unit efficiency is a multidimensional issue that cannot be assessed solely from a single aspect. This study aims to analyze the efficiency of the intensive care unit at Ciremai Hospital, Cirebon City, using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model to determine resource optimization. Analytical quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study consisted of personnel in the ICU of Ciremai Hospital from 2023 to 2025, with total sampling applied. The input variables included the number of physicians, nurses, beds, monitors, and ventilators, while the output variables consisted of BOR, LOS, and recovered patients. The ICU input variables remained stable during the study period, while output variables fluctuated with a declining trend in BOR and LOS. The results of the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) indicated that all study periods achieved an efficiency score of 1.00 (efficient), with a slack value of 0.00 across all input variables.

Hypertension is a chronic disease whose management is substantially determined by an individual's capacity to access and utilize health-related information. Inadequate health literacy may lead to poor medication adherence and diminished quality of life. This study aimed to examine the association between health literacy, medication adherence, and quality of life among hypertensive patients at Polresta Sleman. An observational analytic quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach was employed, involving 80 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using the HLS-ID-SF12, MARS-5, and WHOQOL-BREF instruments. Bivariate analysis was conducted using Pearson correlation, while multivariate analysis applied multiple linear regression. Results revealed that health literacy significantly correlated with medication adherence (r = 0.469; p < 0.05) and quality of life (r = 0.447; p < 0.05). Medication adherence also demonstrated a significant correlation with quality of life (r = 0.615; p < 0.05). Simultaneously, both variables accounted for 41.1% of the variance in quality of life (R² = 0.411; p < 0.05). These findings underscore the importance of jointly improving health literacy and medication adherence as an evidence-based strategy to optimize quality of life in hypertensive patients.

This study aims to examine the factors influencing tax avoidance, with debt (leverage) acting as a mediating variable. The independent variables include internal audit compliance, sales level, capital intensity, firm political connections, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). The sample consists of 306 manufacturing firms from the consumer goods, basic materials, and industrial sub-sectors listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange during the 2019–2021 period, selected using purposive sampling.The study employs multiple linear regression and robust regression to compare results across each year of observation. The findings indicate that capital intensity and political connections of the board of directors have a significant effect on tax avoidance, particularly when leverage (Debt to Asset Ratio) serves as a mediating variable. This suggests that firms with high capital intensity and strong political connections tend to use debt strategically to reduce their tax burden. In contrast, internal audit compliance, political connections of the board of commissioners, and sales levels do not show a significant impact on tax avoidance under either regression method. Overall, the results highlight the importance of monitoring leverage usage and political connections to prevent excessive tax avoidance practices.

Using Non Performing Financing (NPF) as a moderating variable, this study looks at how profit sharing and profit margin financing affect the effectiveness and stability of Islamic banks in Indonesia. The primary topic discussed is how various Islamic financing arrangements affect the operational effectiveness and financial stability of banks, as well as whether credit risk enhances or diminishes these connections. This study aims to examine the direct impacts of financing modalities as well as the moderating influence of NPF on the performance of Islamic banks. Based on secondary data from eight Islamic banks in Indonesia between 2018-2024, this study employs a quantitative methodology using panel data regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The findings indicate that while profit margin financing has no discernible impact on efficiency, profit sharing financing has a favorable and considerable impact. Profit margin financing has a negative and negligible impact on stability, whereas profit sharing financing has a positive but negligible impact. Additionally, by changing the direction of influence, NPF significantly moderates the association between profit sharing financing and both efficiency and stability. However, it does not significantly moderate the effect of profit margin financing on efficiency, but it does on stability. In summary, the effectiveness of Islamic financing is heavily reliant on risk management, especially credit risk control, where NPF is a key factor in evaluating whether financing can improve stability and efficiency in Islamic banks.

The rapid development of technology accompanied by increasing industrial competition makes human resources a determining factor for organizational success. In this context, job satisfaction is an important indicator because it is closely related to individual welfare and employee productivity. This study aims to analyze the influence of work life balance, burnout, and motivation on the job satisfaction of employees in the production department of PG Kedawoeng PT Sinergi Gula Nusantara, Pasuruan Regency. This study uses a quantitative approach. The study population includes all permanent employees of the production department as many as 64 people, with census sampling techniques so that the entire population is used as respondents. Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression. The results showed that simultaneously work life balance, burnout, and motivation had a significant effect on job satisfaction (p=0.000; Adjusted R²=81.1%). Partially, work-life balance had no significant effect (p=0.386), burnout had a negative but insignificant effect (p=0.082), while motivation had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction (p=0.000). The motivation variable was the most dominant factor with a contribution of 76.1%, followed by burnout at 6.0% and work life balance at 0.6%.

This study examines the determinants of the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) based on three main macroeconomic factors namely inflation, the USD/IDR exchange rate, and the SBI interest rate (BI Rate) covering the period January 2020 to December 2025, in the context of post-COVID-19 pandemic recovery and global economic turmoil. A quantitative approach was employed using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method, with 72 monthly observations derived from secondary data sourced from official institutions including Bank Indonesia (BI), the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), and the Financial Services Authority (OJK). Classical assumption tests were applied comprising the Jarque-Bera normality test, Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) for multicollinearity, Breusch-Godfrey for autocorrelation, White Test for heteroscedasticity, and Ramsey RESET for model specification. Partially, inflation, exchange rate, and BI Rate each demonstrate a positive and significant effect on the JCI (p < 0.05). Simultaneously, all three variables exert a significant combined influence on the JCI, with a coefficient of determination R² = 0.4414, indicating that the model explains 44.14% of the variation in the JCI. The remaining 55.86% is attributed to other variables outside the model. Classical assumption test results reveal violations of normality, autocorrelation, and heteroscedasticity assumptions, although the model is free from multicollinearity. These findings confirm that Bank Indonesia's monetary policy has a significant and measurable impact on capital market performance. Further research is recommended using more advanced time series models such as GARCH or VECM to address violations of classical assumptions and improve estimation efficiency.

This study describes the fluctuating exports and imports over the past five years, from 2020 to 2024, which also influenced fluctuations in Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of exports and imports on Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves from 2020 to 2024. The research method is quantitative using secondary data obtained from the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics. The population in this study was 5 years from 2020 to 2024. Data analysis used classical assumption tests consisting of normality tests, multicollinearity tests, and heteroscedasticity tests. In addition, hypothesis tests were also used, consisting of partial tests, simultaneous tests, and coefficient of determination tests. The results of this study indicate that the export variable has a negative effect on Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves from 2020 to 2024. The import variable has a positive effect on Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves from 2020 to 2024. Export and import variables do not simultaneously affect Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves from 2020 to 2024. The implication of this research is that the government needs to manage export and import policies more effectively, as they do not always have the theoretical impact on foreign exchange reserves. Improvements in export quality and import controls are needed, as well as consideration of other factors such as foreign investment and economic policies to maintain the stability of foreign exchange reserves.

This study examines the relationship between the Human Development Index (HDI) and population size with economic growth in North Sumatra Province during 2010-2025 using multiple linear regression based on secondary data. The results indicate that both variables are jointly associated within the model, although they show different directions when observed individually. Population size tends to move in line with economic growth, while HDI shows an opposite tendency. These findings suggest that improvements in human capital have not yet been fully reflected in productive economic activities in the region.

Breast cancer is a serious health problem among women, with incidence and mortality rates that continue to rise. The disease is often detected at an advanced stage due to low levels of awareness, knowledge, and skills related to early detection. Among adolescent girls, particularly high school students, knowledge and skills regarding Breast Self-Examination (BSE) remain limited. This is largely due to restricted access to health information, a lack of targeted educational initiatives, and learning methods that are insufficiently engaging. BSE is a simple and effective early detection method that can be performed independently beginning in adolescence. Video-based education is considered an effective tool for enhancing adolescents’ understanding. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of video-based education in improving knowledge and BSE skills among Grade XI female students at MAN (State Islamic Senior High School) 2 Yogyakarta. This study employed a pre-experimental design using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The study population consisted of all Grade XI female students at MAN 2 Yogyakarta, with a sample of 59 students selected through purposive sampling on predetermined inclusion criteria. The intervention involved a single session of a BSE educational video lasting approximately seven minutes. It was conducted in 15 groups, with each group accompanied by one facilitator. Data were analyzed using the nonparametric Wilcoxon statistical test. The Wilcoxon test results showed a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05) for both knowledge and skills variables, indicating a statistically significant improvement between the pre-test and post-test scores. In conclusion, video-based education was proven effective in improving knowledge and BSE skills among Grade XI female students at MAN 2 Yogyakarta. Future researchers are encouraged to assess BSE skills using a structured checklist based on standardized evaluation criteria.  

This study aims to determine the effect of tax planning and capital structure on firm value, with firm size as a moderator. The population in this study is all non-cyclical consumer companies in the food and beverage subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2020-2024 period. The type of research used in this study is quantitative associative with secondary data. The research sample was determined using a purposive sampling technique. Based on this technique, 24 companies were obtained that met certain criteria. The panel data regression technique used in this study is the Random Effect Model. Testing of panel data regression and moderation regression uses the E=views 13 application. The results of this study indicate that tax planning partially has no effect on firm value, while capital structure does affect firm value. The results simultaneously show that tax planning and capital structure affect firm value. The results of this study also indicate that firm size weakens the relationship between tax planning and firm value, and firm size is also unable to moderate or weaken the relationship between capital structure and firm value.

This study aims to identify and analyze the effects of job competence, work discipline, and incentives on employee performance. This study employs a quantitative method with a descriptive and associative approach. The population of this study consists of all 40 employees in the marketing division at PT Pratama Mitra Aksara. Data collection was conducted through the distribution of an online questionnaire, followed by data analysis using multiple linear regression to test the effect of each independent variable on the dependent variable. The results of the study indicate that job competence, work discipline, and incentives simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The t-scores for the Job Competence variable were 2.569, for the Work Discipline variable 2.894, and for the Incentives variable 2.998. Thus, it is concluded that improving job competence and work discipline, along with providing appropriate incentives, can enhance employee performance. It is hoped that this study will serve as a basis for companies to improve employee performance through more effective human resource management.

This study aims to examine the role of financial literacy, risk perception, and financial attitudes in influencing investment decisions of accounting students at private universities in Surakarta. A quantitative approach was applied by distributing online questionnaires to 88 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The collected data were analyzed using several statistical procedures, including validity and reliability testing, followed by classical assumption tests and multiple linear regression analysis to examine the relationships between variables. The findings reveal that financial literacy does not play a significant role in shaping students’ investment decisions. In contrast, risk perception and financial attitude demonstrate a positive and significant influence. These results suggest that students tend to rely more on their understanding of potential risks and their financial behavior when making investment decisions, rather than solely on their level of financial knowledge

In the current digital era, public services are increasingly being transformed through technology, including tax administration systems. One of the major innovations implemented by the Indonesian government is the Core Tax System, an integrated tax administration system designed to improve service efficiency, data integration, and taxpayer compliance monitoring. This study aims to analyze the effect of Core Tax System implementation on taxpayer compliance in Indonesia. The research adopts a quantitative approach using primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to taxpayers. The collected data were tested using validity and reliability tests and analyzed through descriptive statistics and significance testing to examine the relationship between the research variables. The results indicate that the implementation of the Core Tax System has a positive and significant effect on taxpayer compliance, both partially and simultaneously. These findings suggest that tax system digitalization can serve as an important instrument in improving taxpayer compliance in Indonesia.

The rapid growth of e-commerce and social commerce in Indonesia has shifted consumer behavior in seeking information prior to making purchase decisions, particularly through electronic word of mouth (e-WOM). This phenomenon poses a challenge for local fashion brands such as Hamata Studios, which has relatively low digital visibility despite having favorable product ratings. This study aims to analyze the effect of e-WOM on purchase intention with brand trust as a mediating variable based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) theory. This research employs a quantitative approach with an associative research design. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to respondents who are familiar with or have interacted with Hamata Studios, using a non-probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling method. Data analysis techniques include descriptive and inferential statistical analysis using path analysis, as well as mediation testing using the Sobel test and Variance Accounted For (VAF). The results indicate that e-WOM has a positive and significant effect on both purchase intention and brand trust. Furthermore, brand trust has a positive and significant effect on purchase intention. Mediation testing reveals that brand trust significantly mediates the relationship between e-WOM and purchase intention. In conclusion, positive e-WOM can enhance brand trust, which in turn increases consumers’ purchase intention.

This study examines the effectiveness of urban city parks as a form of Urban Green Open Space (UGOS) in Jayapura City, focusing on Imbi Park (2,347.20 m²) and Mesran Park (2,122.88 m²). A mixed-methods approach combined direct observation of six park characteristics with a questionnaire-based rating-scale assessment of nineteen functional variables covering socio-cultural, aesthetic, and economic functions. Data were collected from 100 visitors and 31 street vendors, and analyzed using descriptive statistics and scoring analysis in accordance with Minister of Public Works Regulation No. 05/PRT/M/2008. Both parks share three dominant functions socio-cultural, aesthetic, and economic while the ecological function is present but not dominant. For Imbi Park, the socio-cultural function was moderately effective (1.8–2.0), aesthetic moderately effective to effective (2.4–2.6), and economic moderately effective (1.8–1.9). For Mesran Park, socio-cultural and aesthetic functions were moderately effective (1.8–2.2), while the economic function was ineffective (1.6). The main weaknesses across both parks are the unavailability of security posts and limited diversity of park-produce-based economic activities. The study recommends developing supporting facilities and a park-profile web portal to improve effectiveness and information accessibility.

The purpose of this study was to determine the direct effect of personality characteristics and intellectual abilities on employee performance in the digital era and competence, the effect of competence on performance, and the indirect effect of personality variables and intellectual abilities on employee performance in the digital era through competence as an intervening variable in BPSDM Jambi Province. The type of research used is quantitative research with primary and secondary data. Sampling used a simple random sampling technique so that 65 employees were selected as respondents. Data collection used a questionnaire and data analysis used Smart PLS. The results of the analysis showed that personality characteristics directly affect performance and competence with a significance value of P <0.05, intellectual abilities do not affect performance and competence with a significance value of P>0.05, and competence does not affect the performance of BPSDM Jambi Province employees in the digital era with a significance value of P>0.05. Furthermore, the direct effect shows that employee competence does not mediate the influence of personality characteristics and intellectual abilities on employee performance. This shows that personality characteristics and intellectual abilities do not affect performance through employee competence as an intervening variable.
