It is recommended that the company improve coordination between departments and conduct regular production process evaluations to improve process efficiency and product quality.

Unlike Indo-European languages, Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia) and most other Austronesian languages lack grammatical tense marking, presenting a fundamental typological difference with significant implications for linguistic theory and second language acquisition. This study investigates how Indonesian expresses temporal reference without grammatical tense, comparing it with tensed languages, and exploring the cognitive and typological implications of tenselessness. We employed a mixed-methods approach combining: corpus analysis of 5,000 Indonesian sentences; comparative linguistic analysis with English and Mandarin Chinese; psycholinguistic experiments with 200 native Indonesian speakers; and a cross-linguistic survey of 15 Austronesian languages. Results revealed that Indonesian expresses temporality primarily through lexical temporal markers (sudah, sedang, akan) in 68.3% of contexts, temporal adverbials (82.1%), and contextual inference (34.5%). Psycholinguistic experiments showed no processing disadvantage for Indonesian speakers in temporal reasoning tasks compared to English speakers. Cross-linguistic analysis confirmed that 86.7% of surveyed Austronesian languages lack grammatical tense, suggesting tenselessness represents a stable inherited feature of the family. Indonesian's tenseless system represents not a linguistic deficit but an alternative, equally sophisticated means of temporal expression. These findings challenge universal claims about tense as a necessary grammatical category and have significant implications for linguistictypology, second language pedagogy, and theories of universal grammar.

Women Farmer Groups play an important role in strengthening household food security, yet limited food diversity remains a challenge in rural communities. This study analyzes the empowerment process of the Melati Women Farmer Group (KWT Melati) through an integrated farming program in improving household food security in Sarengkol Hamlet, Sukagalih Village, Sukaratu District, Tasikmalaya Regency. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings show that the empowerment process was participatory, gradual, and sustainable, implemented through five stages. The enabling stage expanded women’s access and participation through social support and extension facilitation. The empowering stage strengthened technical and organizational capacities as well as women’s roles in decision-making. The protecting stage was reflected in social solidarity and mutual cooperation as informal protection. The supporting stage appeared through continuous assistance and community support. The maintaining stage indicated organizational independence despite reduced external aid. The study concludes that empowerment through integrated farming strengthens household food security based on social capital and women’s autonomy.

High-dimensional clinical data exhibit complex and non-linear relationships among patient attributes, where outcomes are often influenced by feature interactions rather than isolated variables. However, many existing machine learning models prioritize predictive performance while providing limited interpretability and insufficient insight into interaction structures. This study aims to address this limitation by developing an interpretable and robust framework for feature interaction mining in clinical data. We propose a hybrid tree–neural modeling framework that explicitly captures and ranks feature interactions while maintaining stable predictive performance. Tree-based ensemble models are employed to identify non-linear interaction patterns, while neural representations enhance learning flexibility and generalization. The framework integrates interaction importance analysis, cross-validation–based stability assessment, and evaluation across multiple data splits to ensure robustness and interpretability. Experiments conducted on a real-world high-dimensional clinical dataset demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves consistent predictive performance, with AUC values ranging from 0.628 to 0.641 across five cross-validation folds (mean AUC ≈ 0.633). Performance remains stable under varying train–test splits, indicating strong generalizability. Interaction analysis reveals that a small number of dominant feature interactions—such as age combined with length of hospital stay and medication count combined with diagnostic information—consistently contribute to model predictions, appearing in over 80% of validation folds. Ablation studies further confirm that removing interaction-aware components leads to noticeable performance degradation, highlighting their importance.  In conclusion, this study demonstrates that explicit feature interaction modeling enhances interpretability, stability, and generalization in clinical prediction tasks. The proposed hybrid framework provides a reliable foundation for developing trustworthy and transparent clinical decision-support systems

This study aims to investigate the skill gaps experienced by bachelor’s degree graduates in Indonesia when facing the dual demands of Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0. The method applied in this research is a systematic literature review, synthesizing findings from 21 scientific articles focusing on the dynamics of skill gaps and the effectiveness of higher education interventions in Indonesia. The study findings reveal two main categories of competency gaps. In the context of Industry 4.0, the most significant deficiencies are observed in specific hard skills, particularly data literacy, artificial intelligence proficiency, and automation across various sectors. Meanwhile, within the Society 5.0 dimension, deeper gaps emerge in soft skills and human-centered competencies, including complex problem-solving, emotional intelligence, creativity, and environmentally sustainable skills. These human-centered skill gaps play a critical role in enhancing graduate value as AI technologies increasingly replace routine tasks. Although the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka program shows positive outcomes in improving sustainability skills and digital certification, it has not fully succeeded in driving fundamental transformation of higher education learning outcomes, limiting alignment with sustainability principles and the Society 5.0 approach. It can be concluded that Indonesian higher education faces the challenge of undertaking fundamental curriculum reform to integrate human-centered competencies as a foundation for preparing future human resources.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of group counseling integrated with self-management techniques in minimizing students' academic procrastination. Procrastination is a prevalent academic challenge driven by deficiencies in self-regulation, poor time management, and a lack of learning motivation. A quasi-experimental approach was employed, utilizing a pretest-posttest design. The participants consisted of students identified with high levels of task avoidance. The intervention was delivered through structured group counseling sessions focusing on self-monitoring, self-evaluation, and self-reinforcement strategies. The findings reveal a significant reduction in procrastination levels following the treatment. These results reinforce existing theories regarding the critical role of self-regulation in academic behavior. This study implies that organized self-management frameworks within group counseling can effectively foster student discipline and accountability toward their academic obligations.

This study was motivated by the low level of independence among Group B children at PAUD Matahari, Tohe Village, Raihat District, Belu Regency. Initial observations revealed that most children still depended on teacher assistance in completing learning activities, particularly in puzzle-solving tasks. Independence is a crucial developmental aspect in early childhood, as it relates to children’s ability to make decisions, complete tasks independently, build self-confidence, and develop a sense of responsibility. Therefore, appropriate instructional strategies are needed to stimulate the development of children’s independence through meaningful and educational play activities. The purpose of this study was to improve children’s independence through puzzle activities. The research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects were 12 children (6 boys and 6 girls). Data were collected using observation sheets with assessment categories: Very Well Developed, Developed as Expected, Beginning to Develop, and Not Yet Developed. The data were analyzed using descriptive quantitative methods by calculating the percentage of improvement in each cycle. The results indicated a significant increase in children’s independence from Cycle I to Cycle II. Thus, puzzle activities proved effective in enhancing the independence of Group B children at PAUD Matahari.

Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analysis with the chi-square test. Based on the statistical test results, the p-value was 0.023, meaning that p-value < α (0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between workload and the implementation of patient safety among nurses in the Outpatient Ward of Grha Permata Ibu Hospital in 2025. The hospital is advised to ensure fair task distribution, provide facilities, and offer training and psychological support to manage stress.

Academic procrastination is the behavior of deliberately delaying the completion of tasks even though individuals are aware of the negative consequences for their learning outcomes. This phenomenon is commonly found among students at various educational levels, ranging from secondary school to higher education, and often results in decreased academic achievement, lower quality of completed assignments, and increased levels of academic stress among students. This condition indicates that academic procrastination has become an important issue that requires attention within the educational process. This study aims to examine self-regulation as an indicator for the early detection of academic procrastination in the context of guidance and counseling services in educational settings. The method used in this study is a literature review by analyzing various scientific journal articles relevant to the research topic. The results of the review show a consistent negative relationship between self-regulation and academic procrastination. Students who possess a high level of self-regulation tend to be more capable of managing their time, emotions, and learning motivation effectively, enabling them to be more disciplined in completing academic tasks. Conversely, low levels of self-regulation contribute to an increased tendency to delay academic tasks. These findings confirm that self-regulation can serve as a strategic indicator for early detection as well as a target for preventive interventions through guidance and counseling services in schools.

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of group counseling services integrated with self-regulated learning (SRL) techniques in enhancing students’ learning motivation. Learning motivation is a crucial factor influencing academic achievement, yet many students still experience low motivation due to various internal and external challenges. The integration of SRL is considered beneficial as it encourages students to actively manage their learning processes through goal setting, self-monitoring, and reflective evaluation. This research employs a literature review approach by examining recent and relevant academic sources. The findings indicate that the application of SRL within group counseling contributes positively to students’ motivation, as reflected in increased participation, improved learning discipline, and stronger responsibility toward academic tasks. Furthermore, students demonstrate better ability in organizing their learning activities and maintaining consistency in achieving learning objectives. These results suggest that SRL-based group counseling can serve as an effective strategy for school counselors in supporting students’ academic motivation and engagement.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of good governance principles in inclusive public services in Candisari District, Semarang City. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. Research informants consisted of sub-district officials and community service users, including vulnerable groups. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of good governance principles in Candisari District has begun, but has not been running optimally. The principle of transparency has been attempted through the provision of service information and the use of digital media, but accessibility of information for vulnerable groups is still limited. The principle of accountability has not been fully realized, as indicated by the less than optimal performance of the Women and Children Protection Task Force (Satgas PPA) in carrying out its duties and the less than optimal inclusive public complaint mechanism. From the aspect of participation, community involvement, especially vulnerable groups, in the planning and decision-making process is still limited and unstructured. In addition, legal certainty and regional security stability are relatively conducive, but still require institutional strengthening and synergy between stakeholders. This study concludes that the implementation of good governance in Candisari District still faces institutional, participation, and service accessibility constraints, so a strategy is needed to strengthen governance to realize inclusive and sustainable public services.

This study aims to analyze the communication process within the Suluk tradition in Kubu Gadang, West Payakumbuh, using Dell Hymes’ Dell Hymes Ethnography of Communication approach. This research employed a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach through observation and in-depth interviews involving five informants and one triangulator, consisting of mursyid, khalifah, and salik. The findings reveal that communication in the Suluk tradition is systematically regulated to maintain participants’ spiritual concentration during the worship process. Communication occurs through verbal forms, such as dzikir, tawajuh, and spiritual instructions delivered by the mursyid, as well as non-verbal symbols, including the use of khalwat isolation tents, tasbih, and stones as counting tools. In addition, strict norms such as limiting speech, eye contact, and social interaction function as important non-verbal communication elements. These communication patterns collectively support the spiritual objectives of Suluk, particularly in strengthening self-discipline, inner focus, and closeness to Allah.

This research aims to examine the implementation of group guidance services in developing a positive self-concept among students who actively use social media. The rapid development of digital technology has positioned social media as a space for self-expression, yet uncontrolled use often leads to negative social comparisons that distort adolescents' self-perception. This study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through deep interviews, observations, and documentation involving students at IAKN Toraja. The findings indicate that group guidance services, conducted through the stages of formation, transition, core activity, and termination, significantly contribute to the formation of a positive self-concept. There is a notable improvement in students' self-confidence, self-acceptance, and self-control regarding social media usage. The group dynamics provide a supportive social laboratory for students to share experiences and receive constructive feedback, allowing them to reconstruct a more realistic and healthy self-image. The implication of this study suggests that group guidance can be an effective intervention for school counselors to mitigate the negative psychological impacts of digital interaction and foster digital literacy among students.  

This study aims to analyze the application of reality therapy counseling in improving students’ learning motivation influenced by social and family environmental factors. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method supported by interview data as complementary information. Data were collected through the analysis of relevant scientific literature and supported by interviews with parents to describe students’ daily behavior. The results show that low learning motivation is influenced by an unfavorable social environment and lack of family supervision, leading to behaviors that do not support learning activities, such as poor time management and low engagement in academic tasks. The application of reality therapy using the WDEP technique (wants, doing, evaluation, planning) helps students develop self-awareness, evaluate their behavior, and plan more adaptive actions. The findings indicate that reality therapy contributes positively to improving students’ learning motivation through behavioral change and increased personal responsibility. This study concludes that reality therapy can be used as an alternative approach in helping students overcome learning motivation problems.
