The purpose of this article is to describe the perceptions of physical education teachers and class teachers towards the role of physical education in improving the emotional well-being of elementary school students. The main focus of the discussion is how PJOK lessons not only have an impact on physical development, but also support students' emotional growth, self-confidence, discipline, and social interaction. The methods used in this paper are observation and descriptive qualitative interviews with three resource persons, namely two physical education teachers, one class teacher at SDN 5 Imbanagara Raya.

This study explores the metaphor of life in Colleen Hoover’s novel Reminders of Him, aiming to identify the types of linguistic metaphors and analyze the conceptual metaphors that underlie them. Based on Lakoff and Johnson’s conceptual metaphor theory, which classifies metaphors into structural, ontological, and orientational categories, this study highlights the role of metaphor as a cognitive tool, not merely a stylistic device. A qualitative method was employed, with data collected using AntConc software by focusing on parts of the novel containing the word “life.” The Metaphor Identification Procedure was applied to identify linguistic metaphors, which were then categorized based on the word class of the lexical units that were used metaphorically. The results of this study show four types of linguistic metaphors involving the noun “life”: nominal, verbal, adjectival, and prepositional. These forms portray life as a physical object, a process, a possessed attribute, or a container. These linguistic metaphors reflect eight conceptual metaphors, including five ontological metaphors (life is ownership, life is a container, life is an entity, life is air, life is a place) and three structural metaphors (life is a machine, life is a journey, life is a challenge). The diversity of these conceptual metaphors illustrates the rich representation of life in the novel.

Auctions in Indonesia serve a dual function not only as a mechanism for buying and selling to obtain optimal prices, but also as a legal enforcement tool that reflects both the public and private aspects of the auction process. This study aims to analyze the legal standing of the auction minutes deed (akta risalah lelang) in providing legal certainty for auction winners, particularly concerning ownership of vehicles resulting from the execution of state-confiscated assets. This study employs a normative approach, which examines law as a set of norms applicable within society and functions as a guideline for individual behavior. In this context, the auction minutes deed is regarded as an authentic deed; however, its existence does not automatically serve as legitimate proof of ownership for the winning bidder. Nevertheless, the deed still ensures legal certainty by demonstrating the good faith of the buyer and can serve as the legal basis for transferring vehicle ownership documents, proof of the sales transaction, and valid legal evidence.

Early complementary feeding is associated with digestive disorders in infants, including constipation. This literature review aims to explore the relationship between the timing of complementary food (MP-ASI) introduction and the incidence of constipation in infants aged 6–12 months. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the review includes 9 research articles published between 2013 and 2023 from databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. The findings show that early MP-ASI (before 6 months of age) significantly increases the risk of constipation due to the immaturity of the infant's gastrointestinal system and low dietary fiber intake. Most studies highlight the physiological limitations of the infant's digestive system under six months and the importance of appropriate food timing and content. The implication of this review supports WHO and national health guidelines recommending complementary feeding initiation at 6 months of age. It also emphasizes the need for health education at the community level to prevent functional constipation in early life through correct feeding practices.
