This study aims to analyze the role of parents in fostering adolescents' moral development and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in this process in Karya Jaya Village, Buton Regency. This research is motivated by the importance of adolescence as a critical developmental stage that is highly vulnerable to environmental influences, thus requiring optimal moral guidance, especially from the family as the first and primary educational institution. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach. The research subjects consist of 30 parents and adolescents selected through purposive sampling. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation to obtain in-depth and comprehensive data. The data analysis technique uses the Miles and Huberman model, which consists of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results show that parents play a significant role in moral development through role modeling, habituation of moral and religious values, effective communication, and supervision of adolescents' behavior in daily life. Parental role modeling is a key factor in shaping adolescents’ moral behavior, as adolescents tend to imitate what they observe within the family environment. Supporting factors include harmonious family conditions, active parental involvement, and a positive social environment. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include parents' busyness, lack of supervision, and the influence of technology and peer environment. Therefore, the role of parents is crucial in shaping positive moral behavior among adolescents.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the experimental method in teaching Natural Science at the elementary school level. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design using a pretest-posttest control group was applied.

The results show that the experimental method is more effective in improving students’ activeness, conceptual understanding, and learning outcomes compared to conventional methods. Students actively participated in experiments, discussions, and observations, making learning more meaningful. However, variations in improvement were influenced by students’ initial ability, interest, and participation, as well as supporting factors such as teacher readiness and facility availability. In conclusion, the experimental method is effective for science learning in elementary schools when supported by proper planning and adequate resources.

This study aims to analyze the effect of cutting parameters on surface roughness in the turning process of AISI 1045 steel. The investigated parameters include cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut. A quantitative approach was employed using multiple linear regression analysis with SPSS software. The dataset consisted of 30 simulated experimental observations with varying cutting parameter conditions. Prior to regression analysis, classical assumption tests including normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity tests were conducted to ensure the validity of the model. The results indicated that all assumptions were satisfied. The findings reveal that simultaneously, all independent variables have a significant effect on surface roughness with a coefficient of determination of 82.1%. Partially, Feed rate and cutting speed significantly influence surface roughness, while depth of cut does not show a significant effect. Feed rate is identified as the most dominant variable affecting surface roughness, where an increase in Feed rate leads to higher roughness values. In contrast, increasing cutting speed tends to reduce surface roughness. This study highlights the importance of controlling cutting parameters, particularly Feed rate and cutting speed, to improve machining quality. The results provide practical implications for manufacturing industries in optimizing machining parameters to achieve better surface quality and process efficiency.

This article explores the integration of epigenetics and Christian restoration theology as a new framework for understanding trauma and human restoration holistically. Epigenetics demonstrates that life experiences, particularly trauma, can influence gene expression without altering DNA structure and may even be transmitted across generations. Meanwhile, Christian restoration theology emphasizes the grace of God as a power that restores humanity completely in spiritual, psychological, relational, and embodied dimensions. This study employs a qualitative library research approach by examining recent scientific and theological literature relevant to trauma, epigenetic change, restoration, and Christian understandings of grace. The findings reveal that trauma leaves measurable biological imprints within the body, yet epigenetic changes remain reversible through healthy relationships, therapeutic interventions, and spiritual practices. These results indicate that human restoration should not be viewed only as an inward spiritual experience, but also as a holistic process involving psychological healing and biological renewal. Therefore, grace can be understood as a transformative power that works comprehensively within the spiritual, psychological, and biological dimensions of human existence, opening possibilities for intergenerational healing and renewed life for contemporary theological reflection.

The Role of Leadership in the Implementation of Employee Performance Supervision at the Manpower and Transmigration Office at the Regional Manpower Supervisory Agency (UPTD) for Regional Manpower Supervisory Agency (Balai Wasnaker) 1. This study aims to determine the role of leadership in the implementation of employee performance supervision. Effective leadership is an important factor in ensuring that employees perform their duties and responsibilities in accordance with organizational goals and established regulations. The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. Informants were selected based on their involvement in supervision activities and understanding of employee performance management. The results indicate that leadership plays a significant role through direction, coaching, monitoring, and evaluation of employee performance. Employee performance is generally quite good, but supervision has not been optimal due to limited time, diverse tasks, and inconsistent evaluation follow-up. In addition, communication and coordination between leaders and employees influence the effectiveness of supervision. Therefore, the implementation of leadership-supported supervision has a positive impact on employee discipline, responsibility, and work effectiveness, but there is still a need for improvement in the consistency of employee supervision and coaching to achieve optimal organizational performance.

The rapid growth of the digital era has significantly influenced Christian Religious Education (CRE), requiring curriculum transformation that integrates Christian household values into academic learning. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with an exploratory case study design to analyze the integration of family-based Christian values, such as love, open communication, and spiritual discipline, into the CRE curriculum. The findings reveal that this integration effectively nurtures Christlike character in students across cognitive, affective, and spiritual dimensions. In addition, technology-enhanced learning becomes more meaningful when it is rooted in household values that shape daily faith practices and relational responsibility. The study also indicates that the family context provides an important foundation for strengthening moral awareness, spiritual maturity, and responsible digital engagement among students. This research concludes that integrative curriculum models can develop educators who are not only theologically competent but also Christlike, adaptive, and responsive to digital challenges. Therefore, integrating Christian household values into CRE curriculum design is essential for strengthening holistic faith formation in higher education and preparing future educators to serve faithfully in contemporary digital contexts.

This study examines the role of social media as a contemporary arena of spiritual warfare and its impact on Christian spirituality amid the growth of digital disinformation. Employing a mixed-method approach, the research combines quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews to identify patterns of religious disinformation and explain their influence on doctrinal understanding, worship practices, and the faith identity of church members. The findings indicate a negative relationship between exposure to disinformation and the depth and consistency of spiritual practices. They also reveal increasing theological confusion and the emergence of digital influencers as “alternative authorities” who shape religious interpretation outside established church guidance. In addition, low levels of media literacy and the church’s limited readiness for digital ministry further heighten believers’ vulnerability to misleading narratives. The study concludes that the digital sphere functions as a strategic field of spiritual warfare requiring an integrated theological, pastoral, and literacy-based response. Recommendations include developing theologically grounded media literacy programs, training digital ministry leaders, strengthening pastoral guidance online, and designing contextual, evidence-based church content for contemporary digital communities across diverse contemporary congregational settings and contexts.

Bankruptcy can no longer be understood solely as a mechanism for liquidating assets to meet debtor obligations, but has evolved into a restructuring instrument that directly impacts corporate governance and stakeholder protection. This study aims to analyze how bankruptcy functions as a corporate restructuring mechanism, how this process influences the redistribution of power in corporate governance, and the extent to which the bankruptcy legal system provides balanced protection for various stakeholders. The research method used is normative legal research with a statutory, conceptual, and limited comparative approach. The analysis is conducted on the provisions of Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and PKPU (Investment Suspension) and regulations related to corporate governance, combined with theoretical studies on fiduciary duty, stakeholder theory, and the corporate rescue paradigm. The results illustrate that bankruptcy functions as a governance restructuring mechanism that transfers control from the board of directors to the curator and creditor forum, thereby creating a redistribution of power within the company. The dominant creditor primacy orientation has the potential to create an imbalance in protection for non-creditor stakeholders, including workers and other economically impacted parties. These conditions indicate the need for normative reconstruction, including redefining fiduciary obligations during the insolvency phase, strengthening stakeholder protection, and harmonizing corporate governance principles with the insolvency law regime. This research is expected to contribute academically to the development of a bankruptcy model that is not solely focused on debt resolution but also considers aspects of business sustainability and substantive justice in modern corporate governance.

The era of globalization and accelerated digital transformation has given rise to increasingly competitive job markets, requiring every individual to possess adequate skills, confidence, and abilities to face professional demands. In this situation, Generation Z, as a productive age group, still faces various obstacles related to job readiness, for example, a lack of confidence in meeting job expectations and a low mastery of non-technical skills required by industry. This research intends to assess the influence of self-efficacy and soft skills on the employment preparedness of Generation Z in Tasikmalaya Regency using quantitative approaches. The sample comprised 100 participants who were chosen using a non-probability sampling technique, specifically purposive sampling. Data collection employed an ordinal-scale questionnaire, and data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression testing. The findings indicate that self-efficacy has a partial, positive, and significant influence on job readiness. A similar impact is also demonstrated by the soft skills variable, where these non-technical skills are proven to accelerate individual readiness. When tested simultaneously, the combination of self-efficacy and soft skills plays a crucial role in strengthening the job readiness of Generation Z in Tasikmalaya Regency. These findings emphasize that the combination of self-confidence and interpersonal and intrapersonal competencies is the main foundation for facing the world of work. Therefore, this study offers practical implications regarding the urgency of strengthening both aspects through academic pathways, training programs, and stimulating work experiences to produce a Generation Z capable of optimally responding to the dynamics of industry needs.

This research aims to analyze and compare traditional Islamic education systems in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand, focusing on institutional aspects, education systems, learning methods, and curricula. Using a literature study method with a descriptive qualitative approach, this research examines various relevant literature regarding the dynamics of Islamic education in Southeast Asia. The results show that the three countries share fundamental similarities in educational forms, such as pesantren or pondok, which focus on Islamic sciences and moral cultivation. However, significant differences exist in management patterns and the level of integration with government policies. Indonesia maintains a variety of salaf and modern pesantren, Malaysia exhibits a more structured system integrated with the state, while Thailand specifically in the Patani region tends to be adaptive in response to its Muslim minority status. This comparison concludes that the development of traditional Islamic education systems in each country is heavily influenced by the respective social and political contexts.

This study examines the influence of interest rates and the rupiah exchange rate on the money supply in Indonesia during the 2023–2025 period. A quantitative research approach was employed using monthly secondary data obtained from Statistics Indonesia (BPS) and Bank Indonesia (BI). The data were analyzed through multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS software. Several statistical procedures were applied, including classical assumption tests, partial significance tests (t-tests), simultaneous significance tests (F-tests), and coefficient of determination (R²) analysis. The findings reveal that interest rates have a significant negative effect on the money supply, while the rupiah exchange rate exerts a significant positive influence. Furthermore, the simultaneous test indicates that both variables collectively have a significant impact on the money supply. The coefficient of determination shows that 85.4% of the variation in the money supply can be explained by changes in interest rates and the rupiah exchange rate. These results highlight the importance of maintaining stable interest rates and exchange rates as essential components of monetary policy aimed at regulating the money supply and preserving monetary stability in Indonesia.

Bank stock price prediction is an important topic in the application of information technology because stock price movements are dynamic, sequential, and influenced by historical market patterns. This study aims to predict Indonesian banking stock prices using the Long Short-Term Memory method and evaluate the effect of Bayesian Optimization on model performance.

Poverty is a multidimensional problem that remains a major development challenge in Central Tapanuli Regency. Growth in Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), increased realization of Foreign Direct Investment (PMA) and Domestic Direct Investment (PMDN), and zakat collection should be important instruments in reducing poverty rates. However, data from 2019–2023 shows a discrepancy, where the growth in these macroeconomic and social indicators is not accompanied by a decrease in the number of poor people. This study aims to analyze the influence of zakat, GRDP, PMA, and PMDN on poverty levels in Central Tapanuli Regency. The research method used is qualitative descriptive analysis with secondary data from BPS, BAZNAS, and BKPM as well as interviews with relevant parties. The results show that zakat does contribute to alleviating the burden on mustahik, but its role is still limited because the majority of distribution is consumptive. GRDP increased from Rp9.95 trillion in 2019 to Rp13.67 trillion in 2023, but the resulting economic growth is not yet inclusive. Foreign direct investment (FDI) tends to be oriented towards large capital with limited labor absorption, while domestic direct investment (PMDN) is closer to local needs but still less than optimal in poverty alleviation. Overall, the increase in zakat, GRDP, FDI, and PMDN has not been able to reduce the poverty rate, which actually increased from 376,474 people in 2019 to 489,760 people in 2023. Thus, a more inclusive development strategy, optimization of productive zakat, and investment policies that favor labor-intensive sectors and MSMEs are needed so that economic growth truly impacts poverty reduction.

The millennial generation holds a strategic role in the economy but is prone to consumptive behavior due to low financial literacy. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy on the consumption behavior of the millennial generation in Banda Aceh City, and to test the role of demographic factors (education, occupation, and income) as a moderating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey method on 100 respondents aged 28–43, selected through random sampling. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The results indicate that financial literacy has a significant and positive influence on consumption behavior. Another finding is that demographic factors were unable to significantly moderate this relationship. However, simultaneously, all variables in the model significantly influence Consumption Behavior, contributing 92.8% of the variation. These findings underscore the importance of increasing financial literacy as a dominant strategy for promoting more rational consumption behavior among the millennial generation.

Tuberculosis (TBC) in children remains a serious public health problem in Indonesia, with the 0–14 age group accounting for 16.2% of total notified cases in 2024. The uneven distribution of cases across provinces is thought to be influenced by various social determinants, yet spatial studies specifically on childhood TBC at the national level remain scarce. This study aimed to analyze the spatial pattern of childhood tuberculosis cases and social determinants in Indonesia in 2024 using a spatial ecological design across 38 provinces. Analysis included descriptive statistics, thematic mapping using QGIS, Moran's I test, and Local Indicator of Spatial Association (LISA) with queen contiguity weighting matrix. Results showed a strong positive spatial autocorrelation with a Moran's I value of 0.612. High-high clusters were identified in DKI Jakarta, Central Java, Banten, and West Java, which simultaneously recorded high population density and low primary healthcare ratios. Territory-based interventions should be prioritized in these hotspot provinces.

This study examines the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance on firm value in the Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary sectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2021–2023. The study is motivated by inconsistent empirical findings regarding the relationship between ESG and firm value, as well as differences in sectoral characteristics that may influence ESG effectiveness. The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of ESG on firm value in both sectors and compare the differences between them. This research employs panel data analysis using samples of 23 Consumer Staples companies and 19 Consumer Discretionary companies over a three-year period, resulting in 69 and 57 observations respectively. The Fixed Effect Model was applied to the Consumer Staples sector based on the Hausman test result, while the Consumer Discretionary sector used the Random Effect Model. Firm value was measured using Tobin’s Q, ESG performance was proxied by Bloomberg ESG Score. The findings indicate that ESG has no significant effect on firm value in the Consumer Staples sector, while ESG has a significant negative effect in the Consumer Discretionary sector. These results suggest that the relevance of ESG depends on sector characteristics and market perceptions of ESG investment in Indonesia.

Diabetes Mellitus is a non-communicable disease with an increasing prevalence and has become a major public health concern globally and nationally. The incidence of diabetes mellitus is influenced by various individual and environmental factors. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between age, gender, and residential proximity to landfill areas and the incidence of diabetes mellitus in Bendosari District. A quantitative analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. The study population consisted of 1,890 patient visit records recorded in the Management Information System of Bendosari Public Health Center in 2025. A total of 363 respondents were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed through univariate analysis, bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test, and multivariate analysis using multiple logistic regression. The findings showed that age was significantly associated with diabetes mellitus incidence (p=0.000; OR=79.790; 95% CI=53.511–118.974). Gender was also significantly related to diabetes mellitus incidence (p=0.000; OR=0.298; 95% CI=0.203–0.435), indicating that females had a higher risk than males. In contrast, residential proximity to landfill areas was not significantly associated with diabetes mellitus incidence (p=0.308; OR=1.247; 95% CI=0.439–3.540). Multivariate analysis revealed that age and gender were the dominant factors influencing diabetes mellitus incidence, with the model explaining 56.1% of the variation. The study concludes that age and gender are significant determinants of diabetes mellitus incidence, whereas residential proximity to landfill areas has not been proven to significantly affect its occurrence.
