The model is expected to serve as a reference in the development of the competencies of the Indonesian Navy Technical Officers to enhance personnel professionalism and support the operational readiness of naval defense equipment sustainably.

The optimal therapeutic impact of local vaginal drug delivery systems is strongly influenced by the physical characteristics balance of Solid Vaginal Suppositories. A comprehensive review regarding the comparison of mechanical profiles, specifically melting time and crushing strength parameters, from various base classifications constitutes the primary objective of this literature research. The implementation of a Literature Review study design was executed through the extraction of empirical data from twelve experimental journals published within the last ten years. Excessively rapid phase transformation characteristics at physiological basal temperatures and low compression resistance were consistently demonstrated by lipophilic bases such as Oleum Cacao. The risk of structural deformation during the distribution process is highly susceptible to unmodified lipid preparations. High surface elasticity accompanied by a delay in molecular hydration duration reaching 120 minutes was recorded in the utilization of Glycerinated Gelatin Base. Structural rigidity exceeding 4 kgF and disintegration time efficiency under 60 minutes were optimally demonstrated by Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Base. An enhancement in mechanical resistance against external shocks during the storage period is offered by the thorough modification of the synthetic polymer ratios. Therefore, the determination of the PEG base as the most optimal material is recommended to maintain the quality stability of pharmaceutical products. Compendial regulation standards regarding the physical strength testing of pharmaceutical preparations must be obeyed by every institution to ensure long-term treatment effectiveness. Thus, the alignment between active substance release duration and physical preparation endurance can be realized for absolute patient comfort.

The rapid development of social media, particularly Twitter, has given rise to a new form of social violence known as cyberbullying. This study aims to explore the phenomenon of cyberbullying on Twitter using Ulrich Beck's Risk Society Theory as an analytical framework. The research approach used is a literature review. This study perceives cyberbullying on Twitter as a modern, systemic risk, shaped by anonymity, cancel culture, and the individualization of risk. It acknowledges that Twitter's structural features, such as pseudonymous accounts and the rapid dissemination of information, exacerbate the potential for cyberbullying, while simultaneously positioning individual users as both victims and potential perpetrators of digital violence. These findings reinforce Beck's thesis that risks in advanced modernity are self-produced, institutionally distributed, and difficult to regulate, clearly reflected in the uncontrolled spread of cyberbullying in digital public spaces.

The completeness of nursing care documentation serves as a primary indicator of hospital service quality and remains a critical component of patient safety, clinical communication, and legal accountability. Despite its importance, empirical evidence from various healthcare facilities indicates that nursing records are frequently suboptimal, incomplete, or inconsistent. This study aims to analyze the complex interrelationships between burnout and coaching on the completeness of nursing care documentation, specifically examining the role of nursing competence as a mediating (intervening) variable at the Dr. Chasbullah Abdulmadjid General Hospital in Bekasi City. Utilizing a quantitative research framework with a cross-sectional design, this study sampled practicing nurses stationed across inpatient and intensive care units. Primary data were gathered through a validated, structured questionnaire designed to measure psychological burnout, the frequency of clinical coaching, perceived professional competence, and the objective completeness of documentation. The data were subjected to rigorous analysis using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to test the hypothesized pathways within the conceptual model. The results demonstrated that burnout exerts a significant negative influence on both nursing competence and the quality of documentation, suggesting that emotional exhaustion hinders professional performance. Conversely, systematic coaching was found to have a significant positive impact, directly improving both competence levels and documentation adherence. Critically, the analysis confirmed that nursing competence acts as a vital intervening variable; it effectively mediates and strengthens the influence of both burnout reduction and coaching interventions on the overall completeness of nursing care records. This study concludes that proactive burnout management and the institutionalization of structured coaching programs are essential strategic priorities. By addressing these factors, hospital management can enhance individual nurse competence, thereby ensuring high-quality, comprehensive nursing documentation that supports patient safety and institutional integrity.

The rapid proliferation of digital technologies has fundamentally transformed the competitive landscape of the food catering industry, compelling businesses to adopt sophisticated digital marketing strategies to sustain and grow their customer base. This study investigates the relationship between digital marketing strategies and customer loyalty in food catering businesses in Indonesia, with a focus on identifying which digital marketing dimensions most effectively drive loyalty outcomes in the digital era. Employing a quantitative research design with a survey-based approach, data were collected from 215 active customers of food catering services in the Bandung metropolitan area. The digital marketing dimensions examined include social media marketing, content marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), email marketing, and online reputation management. Customer loyalty was measured across four indicators: repurchase intention, referral behavior, emotional attachment, and price insensitivity. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis reveals that social media marketing (β = 0.412, p < 0.001), content marketing (β = 0.318, p < 0.001), and online reputation management (β = 0.287, p < 0.01) are the strongest predictors of customer loyalty. Customer satisfaction and brand trust are confirmed as significant mediating variables in the digital marketing–loyalty relationship. The study concludes that an integrated digital marketing strategy centered on authentic content creation, active community engagement, and proactive online reputation management is most effective in cultivating loyal customer relationships in food catering businesses. Practical recommendations for catering business owners and digital marketing practitioners are presented.

Social media platforms like TikTok have been utilized as a means of information dissemination and digital promotion due to their ability to reach a broad, interactive audience. However, the adoption rate of technology, particularly TikTok, among Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Jambi City is low. This condition is influenced by limited digital literacy, lack of understanding of technology benefits, and low readiness to utilize available features. The purpose of this study is to analyze factors influencing the decision to adopt TikTok by MSMEs in Jambi City by applying the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) model. This study was conducted using a quantitative approach with the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method, analyzed using SmartPLS 4.0, and involving 100 MSME respondents in Jambi City. The results showed that of the three hypotheses tested, one was accepted, namely organizational factors have a positive and significant effect on TikTok adoption. In contrast, the other two hypotheses were rejected, namely technological and environmental factors do not show significant influence on the decision to adopt TikTok. These findings suggest that internal factors, such as organizational readiness and support from business owners, are the main drivers of TikTok adoption by MSMEs compared to external factors.

The phenomenon of tourist destinations experiencing a decline in popularity after a viral phase (post-viral stagnation) poses significant challenges to the sustainability of urban tourism. This study aims to test a structural model for destination reactivation in Kampung Pelangi, Semarang, focusing on the role of digital transformation in strengthening destination resilience through the mediation of competitive advantage. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 150 respondents and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS). The results of the hypothesis testing indicate that digital transformation has a positive and significant influence on competitive advantage (β = 0.495; t = 5.820; p < 0.001) and destination resilience (β = 0.312; t = 3.450; p < 0.001). Furthermore, competitive advantage was found to have a strong impact on resilience (β = 0.542; t = 7.115; p < 0.001). A mediation test demonstrated that competitive advantage significantly mediated the relationship between digital transformation and resilience (β = 0.268; t = 4.890; p < 0.001). This model demonstrated a predictive power of 61.2% (R2 = 0.612) for destination resilience. This finding emphasizes that post-pandemic destination reactivation requires the integration of digital capabilities that can restore differentiation and unique value propositions to achieve long-term resilience.

Tourism in Bali, as the backbone of the regional economy, absorbs more than 50% of the workforce and gives rise to complex labor dynamics. Although Law No. 13 of 2003 on Manpower and Law No. 21 of 2000 on Trade Unions guarantee worker protection and freedom of association, the reality on the ground is still marked by the misuse of fixed-term employment contracts (PKWT), violations of outsourcing regulations, and both structural and cultural barriers to union formation. This article employs a normative juridical approach, using statute, conceptual, and case-based methods to analyze the regulatory framework and the responses of workers, employers, and government actors in addressing industrial relations disputes within Bali’s tourism sector. The findings reveal a significant gap between written legal norms and actual practice: repeated extensions of PKWT, outsourcing of core tasks such animal caretaking, union-busting through dismissal of union members, and weak law enforcement at regional level. Trade unions play a role in mediation and advocacy, but their performance is hindered by employer intimidation, low legal literacy among workers, and limited institutional support. Bridging this gap requires strict oversight, legal education for workers, as well as the strengthening of union capacity and the authority of local governments.

This study aims to analyze the persistence of the middle-income trap in Indonesia through the perspective of Integrated Reality Theory (IRT). Unlike conventional growth approaches that emphasize capital accumulation, IRT integrates five fundamental variables Energy, Information, Entropy, Consciousness, and Evolution into a systemic analytical framework. This research employs a qualitative method with conceptual and comparative analysis approaches. The data used are derived from secondary sources, including the World Bank, Transparency International, and the Asian Productivity Organization. Quantitative data are utilized as empirical illustrations to support the analysis rather than as a basis for causal inference. Indonesia is compared with Vietnam as a country that has demonstrated accelerated productivity growth and more effective economic transformation. The findings indicate that the persistence of the middle-income trap in Indonesia is largely influenced by high systemic entropy, which results in large-scale energy leakage. This condition is further exacerbated by low institutional consciousness and the slow pace of adaptive capacity toward change. These findings imply the need for a shift in policy orientation, from mere economic expansion toward comprehensive structural cleansing and reform.

Tax administrations are undergoing a fundamental transition from conventional audit practices based on manual inspection and limited sampling toward data-driven supervision supported by big data analytics, artificial intelligence, and digital transaction infrastructures. However, developing economies, particularly in Southeast Asia, continue to face structural constraints such as fragmented legacy systems, informal economic activities, uneven digital literacy, corruption risks, weak data interoperability, and evolving privacy regulations. This study aims to develop a contextual framework for detecting potential tax-reporting fraud by integrating big data tax analytics, localized machine learning, explainable artificial intelligence, blockchain-enabled value-added tax data integrity, and socio-organizational governance. The study adopts a mixed-method sequential explanatory approach combined with Design Science Research. The methodological design integrates policy and institutional analysis, machine learning model design, and socio-organizational validation using secondary literature, Southeast Asian case studies, regulatory review, and simulated data architecture. The main contribution of this study is the Contextual Tax Analytics with AI and Blockchain Framework, or C-TAX-AIB Framework, consisting of three interrelated layers: Data Layer, Analytics Layer, and Governance and Human Layer. The Data Layer proposes a hybrid blockchain architecture for e-Faktur and value-added tax reporting integrity; the Analytics Layer introduces localized machine learning and explainable AI to support transparent risk scoring and anomaly detection; and the Governance and Human Layer embeds privacy protection, taxpayer digital literacy, auditor readiness, and trust-building mechanisms. The framework advances prior studies by moving beyond algorithmic fraud detection toward an integrated governance model suitable for developing economies. The study provides theoretical implications for public finance analytics and practical guidance for ASEAN tax administrations in designing accountable, explainable, and context-sensitive digital tax systems.

This study analyzes the urgency of strengthening citizen lawsuit mechanisms in response to spatial planning failures from an environmental law perspective, using the 2025 floods in Bali as a case study. The study is motivated by the increasing frequency and intensity of floods, which can no longer be understood as merely natural phenomena, but rather as the result of structural failures in spatial planning management and weak government accountability. Normatively, spatial planning is regulated under Undang Undang Nomor 26 Tahun 2007 dan Undang Undang Nomor 32 Tahun 2009 however, its implementation reveals a gap between legal norms and actual practice. The methodology employed is a normative legal approach, involving an analysis of legislation, legal doctrine, and judicial practices related to citizen lawsuits. The study's findings show that land-use conversion and development in water catchment areas, which go against the precautionary principle, the polluter pays principle, and sustainable development, are examples of spatial planning violations that cause flooding in Bali. In this situation, citizen lawsuits increase public access to justice while acting as a legal tool to hold the state responsible for its carelessness. However, this mechanism's effectiveness is still limited by the absence of a clear legal foundation, the difficulty of the burden of proof, and the public's limited access to the litigation process. Therefore, in order for citizen lawsuits to serve as effective tools for environmental protection and accountability, it is imperative that clear regulations be established, procedures be streamlined, and public access and ability information be improved.

This study examines the reproduction of social inequality in education through the theoretical framework of Pierre Bourdieu within a critical sociology perspective. The background of this research is rooted in the persistent gap in educational access, participation, and achievement among students from different social classes, which indicates that education does not always function as a tool for social mobility. The objective of this study is to analyze how mechanisms such as habitus, cultural capital, social capital, and the educational field contribute to sustaining inequality. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis within an educational setting characterized by diverse socio-economic backgrounds. The findings reveal that students from higher socio-economic backgrounds tend to possess dominant cultural capital and habitus that align with institutional expectations, giving them a significant advantage in academic achievement. Conversely, students from lower socio-economic backgrounds face structural and symbolic barriers that limit their opportunities. The study also finds that educational practices, including teaching methods and evaluation systems, implicitly favor certain groups, thereby reinforcing inequality. The implications of this research highlight the need for more inclusive educational policies and practices that recognize diverse forms of capital and promote equal opportunities for all students. Ultimately, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of how education functions as a site of social reproduction rather than merely a neutral institution.  

This study aims to analyze public concerns regarding fast food consumption from the perspective of risk society, particularly among university students. The increasing consumption of fast food reflects shifts in consumption patterns influenced by globalization, practicality, and time efficiency. This research employs a qualitative approach through a literature review supported by interview data to strengthen the analysis. The findings reveal that fast food consumption is not solely driven by biological needs but also by practical, emotional, and social factors. Although students demonstrate a relatively high awareness of health risks associated with fast food, their consumption behavior persists as an adaptive response to structural conditions such as time constraints, accessibility, and academic pressures. From the perspective of risk society, this phenomenon illustrates a contradiction between risk awareness and everyday consumption practices. Risks produced by modernity are not entirely avoided but are negotiated and normalized in daily life. Therefore, fast food consumption cannot be understood merely as an individual choice but as a result of the interaction between structural factors, consumer culture, and social construction within modern society.

Many churches face significant challenges in effectively carrying out their Gospel mission amidst limited resources, and one such church is the GSKI Pokok Anggur Church in Bekasi. This research employed a qualitative method with a case study approach. Sampling was conducted using purposive sampling. The data collection techniques employed in this study included literature review, observation, the author's own experiences, and face-to-face interviews with texts, without direct involvement with eyewitnesses of events or other objects. The results of this study are as follows: First, the implementation of the missionary movement or evangelism at the GSKI Pokok Anggur Church in Bekasi exhibits profound problems, both conceptually and practically. Although the church has established a structural commitment through the formation of a mission group and established a work program, evangelism activities have not yet met expectations. Second, the congregation's low financial support for the missionary movement at the GSKI Pokok Anggur Church in Bekasi is a complex phenomenon, arising from the interaction of various theological, structural, and cultural-economic factors.  

Student dropout in higher education remains a persistent socioeconomic challenge, yet many predictive models reported in the literature are methodologically compromised by randomized cross-validation schemes that introduce temporal data leakage and artificially inflate predictive performance. This study proposes a longitudinal prescriptive learning analytics framework integrating three complementary methodological components: a Leave-One-Cohort-Out (LOCO) temporal validation protocol, a hybrid SMOTE-ENN class balancing strategy, and temporal velocity feature engineering derived from Learning Management System (LMS) behavioral trajectories. The framework was evaluated on a longitudinal dataset comprising 464,739 enrollment records and 77 features. Five predictive algorithms—XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression—were comparatively assessed on a strictly isolated blind holdout cohort (2022), with CatBoost emerging as the champion estimator, achieving a PR-AUC of 0.8859, a Macro F1-Score of 0.9143, and the lowest Brier Score (0.0221), thereby demonstrating superior calibration and discriminative capability under severe class imbalance (93:7 ratio). Comprehensive ablation analysis revealed that temporal velocity features function not merely as additive predictors, but as a structural prerequisite enabling Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique with Edited Nearest Neighbors (SMOTE-ENN) to generate high-quality synthetic boundary instances; removing these features reduced minority-class precision from 0.8302 to 0.6721. To operationalize predictive outputs into actionable intervention pathways, Diverse Counterfactual Explanations (DiCE) were implemented under a three-tier causal constraint architecture on 96 borderline high-risk students, generating 384 feasible intervention scenarios exclusively targeting forward-looking behavioral velocity metrics without constraint violations. Collectively, these findings advance the paradigm of prescriptive learning analytics by providing educational institutions with interpretable risk diagnostics and operationally feasible intervention guidance grounded in empirically validated behavioral and temporal dynamics.

This study examines public service inefficiency in Indonesia during the digital era and its implications for achieving governmental organizational goals. Digital transformation through the implementation of e-government and technology-based public services is expected to improve effectiveness, transparency, and service quality. However, several challenges remain, including weak system integration, rigid and hierarchical bureaucratic structures, limited human resource competencies, lack of sustainable service innovation, and inadequate supervision mechanisms. This research employs a literature study method with a descriptive-qualitative approach by analyzing various academic sources such as journals, books, and relevant policy documents. The findings indicate that digitalization has not fully reduced inefficiency due to structural barriers, organizational behavior issues, and the lack of an adaptive work culture. Therefore, strengthening human resource competencies, improving digital system integration, encouraging continuous service innovation, and enhancing supervision are necessary to ensure that digital public services effectively support the achievement of organizational goals.

The data were analyzed using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results show that Virtual Try-On has a positive and significant effect on purchase intention. Consumer testimonials also have a positive and significant effect on purchase intention. Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence purchase intention. From an Islamic business perspective, the use of technology and consumer testimonials can serve as an effective marketing strategy while maintaining ethical principles such as transparency, honesty, and fairness. 

This study aims to investigate the influence of academic qualifications, managerial capabilities, and Perceived Organizational Support (POS) on emotional exhaustion and its implications for employee productivity at Sunan Kudus Islamic Hospital. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected via a questionnaire from 138 respondents. Instrument evaluation procedures were conducted through validity and reliability tests, while hypothesis testing was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings reveal that academic qualifications and POS have a significant negative effect on emotional exhaustion, indicating that increased intellectual competence and strong organizational support are effective in reducing staff emotional exhaustion. Conversely, managerial capabilities were found to have no significant influence on emotional exhaustion. In the context of performance, the analysis results show that academic qualifications, managerial capabilities, and POS have a partial, positive, and significant effect on work productivity. Practically, this study suggests that hospital management prioritize human capital development and the strengthening of a supportive organizational climate to mitigate emotional exhaustion while accelerating operational efficiency in a sustainable manner.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Knowledge Sharing and Knowledge Leakage on Supply Chain performance, with Monitoring Opportunity as a mediating variable at the Library Office of Mesuji Regency. The research problem arises from the limited structure of knowledge-sharing practices, weak documentation of organizational knowledge, and the potential risk of knowledge leakage that may disrupt the effectiveness of library service supply chains. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 115 employees of the Library Office of Mesuji Regency and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Squares with SmartPLS. The results show that Knowledge Sharing has a positive and significant effect on Supply Chain performance and Monitoring Opportunity. Knowledge Leakage does not have a significant direct effect on Supply Chain performance, but it has a negative and significant effect on Monitoring Opportunity. Furthermore, Monitoring Opportunity significantly mediates the relationship between Knowledge Sharing and Supply Chain performance, but does not mediate the relationship between Knowledge Leakage and Supply Chain performance. These findings indicate that knowledge sharing becomes more valuable when supported by monitoring capability, while knowledge leakage should be controlled through documentation, access control, and knowledge protection mechanisms. This study contributes to knowledge management and supply chain literature in public library service organizations.
