The current education system is facing a crucial dilemma: the intensifying focus on cognitive achievement amidst the specific challenges faced by Generation Z. Junior high school students aged 12–15, who are digital natives, are at risk of reduced social interaction and mental health issues due to high screen time. Addressing this urgency, this study aims to describe the strategic role of dance arts education in shaping character and creativity, and to identify implementation solutions at SMP Negeri 1 Wonogiri. This descriptive qualitative study utilized 8 students active in dance as primary subjects, with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that dance arts, through an embodied learning approach based on physical movement, is highly effective in cultivating character. Values such as discipline, which is transferred from the punctuality required in practice to general school life , collective responsibility , and self-confidence that overcomes social awkwardness, grew significantly. Furthermore, dance reinforces authentic cooperation and cultural appreciation. In terms of creativity, the activity encourages movement exploration, improvisation, and creative problem-solving. Psychologically, dance practice functions as a positive coping mechanism that effectively lowers adolescent stress levels. Although constraints exist, such as limited instructional time (80 minutes per week) , adaptive solutions like strengthening extracurricular activities and the peer tutoring system are being implemented. This research concludes that dance arts education is an essential and strategic medium for developing holistic competencies, including the 4Cs (Critical Thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, and Communication) and the Profil Pelajar Pancasila.

This study aims to analyze the differences in thermal conditions between coastal and riverside settlements, focusing on variations in temperature, humidity, and wind speed during day and night. The research sites include the coastal area of Dusun Karama Tengah (seaside) and Desa Salotengnga (riverside). Measurements indicate that the coastal area experiences more extreme daytime temperature fluctuations, reaching nearly 39 °C, with nighttime temperatures remaining warm and showing noticeable variation among points. In contrast, the riverside area displays more stable temperature patterns, with nighttime temperatures ranging between 28–30 °C. Relative humidity along the coast increases consistently at night, whereas in the riverside area it is heterogeneous, varying from saturated to very dry conditions. Wind speed serves as a key differentiating factor: the coastal area is still influenced by land–sea breezes, while the riverside environment tends to be stagnant with weak natural ventilation. These findings highlight distinct thermal comfort challenges in both settings—coastal areas are prone to daytime heat stress, whereas riverside areas face nighttime discomfort due to humidity and air stagnation. The results provide a foundation for adaptive architectural and spatial design strategies responsive to local microclimatic contexts.

Bullying is one of the most common forms of violence still occurring in schools, causing serious impacts on students’ psychological conditions and social development. Various efforts have been made to reduce bullying cases, yet communicative campaign media that match the characteristics of the digital generation remain limited. This study aims to develop educational media based on interactive motion graphics designed with Visual Communication Design principles to support anti-bullying digital campaigns in schools. The research stages include designing the main characters using Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop, separating body parts in vector format for easier animation, importing the files into Adobe Character Animator, and synchronizing movements, facial expressions, and voices through dubbing processes. The final product is an interactive animation entitled “Berani Bicara, Berani Membela” (Dare to Speak, Dare to Defend), which features three main scenes: bullying in a school corridor, peer support in the classroom, and reporting the case to the guidance counselor. The findings indicate that this media provides a more engaging and interactive learning experience while effectively delivering moral messages. The animation not only emphasizes the importance of victims’ courage to report bullying but also highlights peer support and the school’s role in providing protection. Therefore, interactive motion graphics can serve as an alternative digital campaign strategy that is relevant, easily accepted by young generations, and has the potential to foster safe, inclusive, and friendly school environments for all students.

Edema is a common physiological complaint experienced by pregnant women, particularly during the third trimester, which may affect maternal comfort and daily activities. Prenatal exercise is considered a safe, non-pharmacological intervention that can improve maternal circulation and reduce fluid retention. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the frequency of prenatal exercise and the incidence of edema in third trimester pregnant women in the working area of Benoa Public Health Center. A cross-sectional analytical design was employed, involving 30 pregnant women selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and physical examination to assess the presence of edema, while the frequency of prenatal exercise was categorized into regular (≥3 sessions per week) and irregular (<3 sessions per week). Descriptive statistics summarized participant characteristics, and the Chi-square test was used to evaluate the association between prenatal exercise frequency and edema, with a significance level of p < 0.05. The results indicated that 26.7% of women who exercised regularly experienced edema, compared to 66.7% of those who exercised irregularly. Statistical analysis confirmed a significant relationship between exercise frequency and edema occurrence (χ² = 5.33, p = 0.021). These findings suggest that consistent participation in prenatal exercise is associated with a lower incidence of edema among third trimester pregnant women. Integrating structured exercise programs into routine antenatal care is recommended to enhance maternal well-being, prevent pregnancy-related discomforts, and support overall health during late pregnancy.

Exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life is an important nutritional intervention that plays a role in supporting infant growth and preventing growth disorders. Although the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia has increased, differences in infant growth outcomes based on nutritional sources remain an issue that needs to be examined contextually. This study aims to analyze the effect of exclusive breastfeeding on infant growth at the Labuha Community Health Center, South Halmahera Regency. The study uses a quantitative approach with an observational analytical design and a comparative cross-sectional design. The study sample consisted of 30 infants aged 3–9 months selected using total sampling technique. The independent variable was the infant's nutritional source (exclusive breastfeeding and breastfeeding supplemented with formula milk), while the dependent variables included weight gain and length gain. The data were analyzed univariately and bivariately. The normality test was performed using the Shapiro–Wilk test, and the difference analysis was performed using the independent t-test. The results showed that there was no significant difference in infant weight gain based on nutritional source (p = 0.334). However, there was a significant difference in infant length gain, with infants who were exclusively breastfed showing better linear growth than infants who received a combination of breast milk and formula (p = 0.006). The conclusion of this study shows that exclusive breastfeeding has a significant effect on infant length growth, but not on weight gain. These findings emphasize the importance of exclusive breastfeeding in supporting linear growth as a key indicator of healthy infant growth.

Introduction: Experiential marketing has become a growing trend in promotional activities by emphasizing personalization and active customer involvement. Preliminary observations indicate a decline in outpatient visits among patients with general insurance and non-JKN coverage in 2023, which may be influenced by a decrease in their intention to use outpatient services. This condition highlights the need for hospitals to implement experiential marketing strategies to enhance patient interest and experience. Objective: This study aims to empirically examine the influence of patient experience and service perception on the intention to use outpatient services, with Strategic Experiential Modules (SEMs) as an intervening variable. Methods: This quantitative research employs a causal design involving outpatient service users as the population. A non-probability sampling technique was used, yielding 249 respondents. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS software. Results: The findings reveal that patient experience and service perception simultaneously have a significant positive influence on the intention to use outpatient services through SEMs. Service perception directly shows a significant positive effect on both SEMs and intention to use outpatient services, while SEMs also significantly enhance usage intention. Service perception emerges as the dominant variable in increasing SEMs and usage intention, whereas patient experience has the weakest effect. Conclusion: Patient experience and service perception collectively influence the intention to use outpatient services with SEMs as an intervening variable. Strengthening Customer Relationship Management is essential by improving human resources and optimizing service asset.

Digital transformation in the Industry 4.0 era has accelerated changes in consumer behavior and intensified competition in online markets. Under heterogeneous and increasingly saturated conditions, mass-marketing approaches become less effective, making niche market strategies more relevant as a path to differentiation. This article aims to formulate a systematic framework for independently building a niche market in the digital era through a synthesis of academic literature and a practical social-media case. The study uses a conceptual literature review integrating niche marketing theory, niche success characteristics, and social media marketing dynamics. The review indicates that effective niche market development follows sequential stages: (1) identifying specific market needs/problems, (2) designing a relevant product/service solution, (3) sharpening the target into a clearly defined niche, (4) formulating a unique selling point (USP) and value proposition, (5) conducting small-scale validation through a portfolio/MVP, (6) executing social media marketing, (7) maintaining consistent content and digital branding, and (8) performing continuous adaptive evaluation. The @foodish_mks case reinforces that content consistency and social-media utilization act as key mechanisms linking digital marketing intensity to niche success. This article contributes a cross-sector niche-building roadmap aligned with algorithmic, community-based digital platforms, and proposes a testable hypothesis model (H1–H6) for future empirical validation.

This study explores the intellectual and thematic evolution of green sukuk research within Islamic sustainable finance from 2015 to 2025. Using a hybrid methodological design that integrates the PRISMA-guided Systematic Literature Review with Watase Uake network analysis, the study identifies 17 core Scopus-indexed articles that collectively define the field’s conceptual and empirical development. Results reveal a three-phase evolution: (1) a formative stage emphasizing ethical legitimacy and Sharia compliance; (2) a transitional phase integrating pricing efficiency, market risk, and policy frameworks; and (3) a maturity phase characterized by econometric modeling, behavioral-finance integration, and sustainability governance. Thematic clusters extracted from bibliometric mapping include financial performance and market dynamics, institutional legitimacy and policy frameworks, behavioral intention and investor psychology, and technological innovation and ESG disclosure. Despite methodological advancement, the literature remains geographically concentrated in Malaysia and Indonesia and exhibits theoretical fragmentation across behavioral, financial, and institutional models. Findings highlight key research gaps involving contradictory evidence on yield–risk relationships, inconsistent behavioral determinants of investment intention, and insufficient integration of moderating or mediating mechanisms. The study advances theoretical pluralism by connecting the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), Institutional and Legitimacy Theory, and Resource-Based View (RBV) into an integrated model explaining how legitimacy, behavior, and strategic capability jointly drive green sukuk adoption. Policy implications emphasize the need for harmonized regulation, behavioral incentives, and digital transparency to strengthen credibility and accelerate sustainable-finance transformation in line with SDGs 7 and 13.

This study examines the strategic role of job satisfaction in shaping organizational commitment in the context of companies by synthesizing empirical evidence published between 2016 and 2025. Although it has been extensively researched, findings related to the consistency and determinants of the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment are still scattered and have not been integrated, thus requiring comprehensive mapping. Therefore, this study aims to identify empirical patterns, conceptual issues, and theoretical foundations that explain how job satisfaction contributes to the formation of organizational commitment. Using the PRISMA based Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, 35 articles were selected through the stages of identification, screening, quality assessment, and thematic synthesis. The review results show that job satisfaction is consistently a major predictor of organizational commitment in various corporate sectors. These findings are consistent with theories such as Social Exchange Theory, Equity Theory, Herzberg's Two Factor Theory, and Job Demands Resources Model, which explain the cognitive and affective mechanisms of commitment formation. In addition, variables such as work environment, job involvement, work life balance, internal CSR, and HR practices were identified as mediators or moderators that strengthen this relationship. This study concludes that increasing job satisfaction is an important strategy for strengthening commitment, reducing turnover intentions, and improving organizational performance. This review contributes to an integrative understanding of empirical developments and theoretical perspectives, and provides recommendations for future research to expand the data base and consider cross-cultural dynamics in organizations.

The rapid growth of social media as a primary channel for information dissemination has triggered a significant surge in the distribution of hoaxes, potentially damaging social order, instigating mass disinformation, and threatening national security. This research aims to design an intelligent algorithm for hoax detection by integrating a critical thinking approach into Natural Language Processing (NLP)-based text processing. The algorithmic model is built using a combination of linguistic features, argument logic, and cognitive indicators such as the detection of unsubstantiated claims, identification of source bias, and evidence testing. To ensure accountability and transparency of the system, an Explainable AI (XAI) approach is applied so that classification results can be understood by non-technical users. The research results show that integrating critical thinking significantly improves detection accuracy to 93.1%, with an increase in precision and recall for detecting hoaxes based on emotional narratives. Beyond technical aspects, this model aligns with the mandate of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions (ITE Law), particularly Article 28 paragraph (1), which prohibits the dissemination of false and misleading news that harms the public. Therefore, this system is not only scientifically relevant but also supports law enforcement and strengthens digital literacy in the post-truth era. These findings are expected to be a strategic contribution to the development of an ethical, critical, and responsible digital ecosystem.

Fasting as a spiritual and health practice has been practiced for thousands of years in various religious and cultural traditions around the world. In the last decade, researchers have shown increasing interest in the health aspects of fasting, not only from a physiological but also a psychological perspective. This phenomenon is interesting to study further, especially in the context of modern society which often faces stress, anxiety, and various mental disorders. The approach used in this study was a qualitative approach with a literature study method that analyzed in depth various reference sources related to the mental impact of fasting. The results of the review of several studies show that fasting has been proven to have an effect on mental health because it has a significant impact on overall mood improvements, with reduced anxiety levels and increased feelings of calm. Furthermore, another important aspect of mental health is cognitive function, which includes attention, concentration, memory, and executive function. It was found that cognitive alertness is generally maintained during short- to medium-term fasting, but begins to decline after longer fasting durations. Fasting also has an impact on extraordinary psychological resilience and good mental health despite advanced age. Researchers attribute this extraordinary mental resilience to the consistent practice of long-term fasting, which may have induced significant neuroplastic and psychological adaptations.

Learning Hajj rituals requires innovation to overcome the limitations of available media, one of which is through the utilization of the integration of the Android platform with Augmented Reality technology. The Muslim Sadiq application on smartphones displays 3D objects related to the practice of Hajj rituals. This study aims to explain the design of interactive media based on Augmented Reality as an innovation in learning Hajj rituals, expected to improve student understanding through a more visual, interactive, and contextual learning experience. This media design method adopts two stages of the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation), namely the needs analysis and media design stages. This study reveals that learning Hajj rituals requires interactive and applicable media to overcome the gap between theoretical understanding and the practice of Hajj worship in real life. The designed media utilizes AR technology to create a simulation of Hajj implementation and supports experience-based learning. Although the design has considered technical and pedagogical aspects, this media is still in the design stage and has not been tested or implemented directly. Therefore, further research is needed to assess the effectiveness of this media in learning Hajj rituals.
