This study examines the dynamics of Data Driven Policy implementation in Indonesia, which faces a disconnect between the ambitions of digital regulation and the reality of execution on the ground. Using a qualitative approach with the Three Lenses of Evidence-Based Policy analysis framework (Head, 2008), this study examines the interaction between scientific evidence, political considerations, and professional practices in government data governance. The results show that although legal infrastructure such as Satu Data Indonesia (SDI) has been established, its effectiveness is hampered by structural barriers: the dominance of sectoral egos and a culture of intuitive decision-making (political lens), as well as a mix of digital talent and resistance from a paternalistic bureaucratic culture (practical lens). These findings confirm that data fragmentation and cybersecurity incidents are not simply technical failures, but rather systemic governance failures. Therefore, this study recommends a “soft reform” strategy that integrates the enforcement of technical standards, budget incentive mechanisms, and digital leadership transformation to align data validity with the political realities of the bureaucracy.

The 2018 financial statement manipulation case of PT Garuda Indonesia Tbk revealed a violation of the ethical principles of the public accountant profession and weak auditor independence in detecting irregularities in revenue recognition. This incident has created an urgency to empirically test the extent to which professional ethics influence auditor independence in preventing financial statement manipulation. This study aims to analyze the influence of public accountant professional ethics on auditor independence using quantitative research methods. Data were obtained through variable measurements using structured instruments which were then processed and analyzed using the SPSS application through validity tests, reliability tests, simple linear regression analysis, and t-tests to determine the significance of the influence between variables. The results of the study indicate that professional ethics has a positive and significant influence on auditor independence, where the stronger the application of ethical principles, the higher the level of auditor independence in carrying out their professional duties. The conclusion of this study confirms that the consistent application of professional ethics is a fundamental factor in maintaining auditor objectivity and preventing the recurrence of financial statement manipulation cases such as those that occurred at PT Garuda Indonesia Tbk.

“Hallyu” (the Korean Wave) refers to the popularity of everything originating from Korea. Aims to examine the description of students’ K-Pop celebrity worship behavior before and after receiving group counseling with the Cognitive Restructuring technique, analyze the differences in students’ behavior, and test the effect of the counseling on reducing celebrity worship tendencies. The findings are expected to provide theoretical contributions to the field of guidance and counseling, particularly regarding the application of Cognitive Restructuring to mitigate obsessive behaviors, as well as practical benefits for school counselors and institutions in helping students reduce celebrity worship tendencies so they can remain focused on academic and social development. The research employed an experimental method with a One-Group Pretest–Posttest design. The subjects consisted of eight tenth-grade students at SMK Negeri 1 Kuantan Mudik who were identified as having a high level of K-Pop celebrity worship. The instrument used was a 19-item K-Pop celebrity worship scale that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test and N-Gain calculations to determine treatment effectiveness. The results showed that prior to receiving group counseling with Cognitive Restructuring techniques, most students were categorized as having high or moderate levels of celebrity worship. After the intervention, all students experienced a decrease in celebrity worship behavior, falling into the low category. This demonstrates that group counseling using Cognitive Restructuring is effective in helping students shift irrational thinking patterns toward more rational ones, enabling them to control excessive celebrity worship behavior.  

The development of information technology has given rise to a new form of business transaction: the electronic contract. This contract form replaces the traditional process that requires a physical meeting between the parties. However, questions arise regarding the validity of e-contracts from the perspective of Indonesian civil law, specifically based on Article 1320 of the Indonesian Civil Code (KUHPerdata) and the provisions of Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions (UU ITE). This research aims to analyze the validity of electronic contracts as legally binding agreements and to assess the extent to which the ITE Law can serve as their legal basis. Using a normative juridical legal research method, the research results show that e-contracts are valid and binding as long as they meet the requirements for the validity of an agreement under Article 1320 of the Civil Code, namely consent, capacity, a specific object, and a lawful cause. The ITE Law expands the recognition of electronic evidence and digital signatures as valid evidence in civil law. Thus, electronic contracts have the same legal force as conventional contracts, as long as they meet the principles of free will and the integrity of a reliable electronic system.

The findings of this study imply that future researchers should test the model using samples with a larger business scale to obtain more varied results. The findings of this study also imply that Kopi Pirak needs to improve customer experience in order to enhance customer loyalty.

This study aims to develop an interactive digital learning media based on Wordwall, named TANGKAS (Tantangan Asyik Ngulik Pecahan Kelas Empat Seru), as a practice tool for addition and subtraction of fractions in fourth-grade elementary students. The development process employed the ADDIE model, which includes the Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate stages. The research subjects consisted of 29 fourth-grade students at SDN Ngemplak I Baureno. The needs analysis revealed that learning activities were still dominated by conventional methods with limited use of digital media, resulting in low student engagement. To address this issue, TANGKAS was developed using a maze chase game design to enhance motivation and support engaging fraction practice. The validation results indicated a material validity score of 94% (highly valid) and a media validity score of 80% (valid). The practicality aspect obtained 81.8% from students, both categorized as highly practical. The effectiveness test showed an improvement in learning outcomes with N-Gain scores of 0.6 for fraction addition and 0.54 for fraction subtraction, both classified as moderate. Therefore, TANGKAS is proven to be feasible, practical, and effective as an interactive game-based learning media to support students’ understanding of mathematics in elementary school.

This study seeks to investigate a consumer behavior model by evaluating the impact of interactive technology-driven digital innovation and perceived value on digital engagement, with customer behavior serving as a mediating variable within the retail sector in Jambi Province. A quantitative research design utilized a survey method with 150 retail consumers as participants. We used Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to look at both the measurement and structural models. The findings of the measurement model show that all indicators match the requirements for convergent validity. The outer loading values are all over 0.70, which means that the construct is reliable and valid. The evaluation of the structural model indicates that perceived value exerts a positive and significant influence on both consumer behavior and digital engagement. Also, how people act as consumers has a big effect on how they contact with and participate in digital media. This means that people who think retail services are more valuable are more likely to interact with and participate in digital media. Nevertheless, interactive technology-driven digital innovation does not exhibit a substantial direct impact on customer behavior or digital engagement. These findings suggest that value perception is more influential than technology innovation in determining consumer responses inside digital retail environments. This research enhances the body of knowledge regarding consumer behavior and digital marketing by highlighting the strategic significance of perceived value in augmenting consumer involvement within digital retail contexts.

The rapid development of e-commerce as part of the broader digital transformation has introduced various new forms of transactions that were not explicitly recognized in classical Islamic jurisprudence. These include digital contracts, non-physical goods, cloud-based services, and electronic payment systems. Such innovations present a range of legal challenges, particularly concerning the validity of contracts, the legal status of digital products, the permissibility and security of electronic payment methods, and the protection of consumers in online transactions. To address these challenges, Islamic scholars have increasingly turned to ijtihad the process of independent reasoning and interpretation—as a methodology capable of providing legal solutions for contemporary issues. This study employs a qualitative approach, primarily through literature review, to examine the foundational principles of ijtihad, various methodological tools, and their applicability to different aspects of e-commerce transactions. The findings demonstrate that ijtihad methods, including qiyās (analogical reasoning), istislāh (consideration of public interest), istihsān (juridical preference), and ‘urf (customary practice), enable Islamic law to remain adaptive and flexible, while still oriented toward justice and public welfare. By applying these methods, Islamic jurisprudence can provide legal certainty, uphold fairness, and ensure that e-commerce practices align with Shariah principles, ultimately fostering trust and ethical behavior in the digital marketplace.

Presidential Instruction Number 1 of 2025 concerning State Expenditure Efficiency gave rise to a fiscal paradox at the beginning of the new administration, with a cut of Rp306.69 trillion facing a 17.9% APBN deficit for flagship programs such as Free Nutritious Meals, which triggered doubts about public trust, especially students at the University of Jambi affected by the BOPTN adjustment. This study analyzes the influence of student perceptions on the dimensions of effective-efficient (X1) and transparent-accountable (X2) policies on public trust (Y) as an indicator of government legitimacy. A quantitative survey approach was applied to 400 active students at the University of Jambi (proportional random sampling using the Slovin e=0.05 formula), with SPSS multiple linear regression analysis after classical assumption testing, validity (r> r-table), and reliability (Alpha Cronbach's 0.920 (x1); 0.949 (x2); 0.918 (y)). The results show a significant simultaneous effect (F=200.951; sig=0.000), partial X1 is dominant (t=7.116; β=0.162; sig=0.000) and X2 is significant (t=5.532; β=0.110; sig=0.000), with R²=0.503 explaining 50.3% of the variation in trust. The findings confirm the theory of Easton (1965) and Weber (1947) that efficiency performance evaluation shapes trust, so it is recommended that a real-time APBN dashboard, transparent communication to regional PTNs, and fiscal literacy strengthen the legitimacy of good governance.

Adolescent girls often complain of dysmenorrhea, or discomfort during menstruation, which can range from mild to severe and interfere with daily activities, especially learning. To prevent this disease from lowering the quality of life of adolescents, it must be treated. Education about dysmenorrhea and its treatment is one of the actions that can be taken. The study used a pre-experimental design approach, a quantitative research design, and a single-group pre-test-post-test research plan without a control group design. Using a proportional stratified random sampling approach, 57 female students of class X formed a research sample. The use of films on dysmenorrhea for health education serves as an independent variable of the study. Adolescent girls' knowledge and attitudes about dysmenorrhea function as a study-dependent variable. The validity and reliability of these instruments are checked. Univariate and bivariate analysis were used as data analysis methods in this study. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test is used for hypothesis testing. It was determined that health education using dysmenorrhea film had an impact on the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls about the treatment of dysmenorrhea based on the findings of the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test (Asymp.) with a value of 2-tailed 0.000 (p<0.05). The findings of the study showed that among grade 10 students at SMA Negeri 13 Selatan Halamahera, health education through dysmenorrhea films had an impact on the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls about the treatment of dysmenorrhea.

The development of information technology has transformed trade from traditional markets to digital platforms, including Cash on Delivery (COD) payment systems. This study analyzes the integration of the COD system with the istishna contract in online transactions (specifically on Shopee), its implementation mechanisms, and its validity according to Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh muamalah). The research method used a descriptive qualitative approach through digital observation and literature review. The focus of the study was on pre-order or custom product transactions made after a specification agreement between the buyer (mustashni') and seller (shani'). The results showed that the COD system is valid in the istishna contract because it allows for final payment upon receipt of the goods. This is in accordance with Sharia law as long as the product specifications are clear, the price is transparent, and the buyer's right to khiyar is fulfilled to ensure the goods conform to the contract. As long as it is free from riba (usury), gharar (gharar), and tadlis (tadlis), the COD method in istishna transactions reflects fairness, openness, and benefits for both parties in the digital economy ecosystem.

This research was carried out at the Communication and Information Office of Bogor Regency, Jalan Tegar Beriman Number 1, Pakansari, Cibinong District, Bogor Regency, West Java 16914. The data collection techniques used are direct observation of the broadcast process, in-depth interviews with broadcasters and program managers, and documentation to support the validity of research data. The results of this study show that broadcasting strategies are implemented through content planning that suits the needs of listeners, the implementation of interactive broadcasts involving listeners and routine evaluation to maintain the quality of the information that has been delivered. In addition, the use of digital media as a streaming platform and interaction through social media also supports a wider reach to listeners. The conclusion of the broadcasting strategy implemented by Radio Teman 95.3 FM is considered effective in maintaining listener loyalty and attracting new audiences, so that it can be an example for other local radio stations in facing the current digital media competition.technological optimization, audience engagement, and adaptation to the development of new media.

The illicit circulation of narcotics in Indonesia has undergone a fundamental evolution into cyber-enabled crime, where drug syndicates systematically exploit children as technical operators through digital media to sever the main network chain and evade legal detection. This study aims to analyze the anatomy of the modus operandi of narcotics transactions involving children in the digital realm and examine its legal implications for the process of proof and criminal liability. Utilizing an empirical juridical research method with a sociological approach conducted in the jurisdiction of the Metro Police Resort, Lampung, this research identifies a shift in modus operandi towards the "Map System" or Dead Drop Method. In this modus, the child's role is divided into three sophisticated technical stages: pre-transaction via encrypted communication, field execution (mapping & dropping) using precise GPS coordinates, and post-transaction involving digital cleaning, which creates a phenomenon of crime "gamification" where children perceive the criminal act akin to an online game mission. The legal implications of this phenomenon present serious challenges regarding the validity of electronic evidence, which is volatile due to a weak chain of custody, as well as the reconstruction of the child's mens rea, which points towards premeditated intent (dolus premeditatus) driven by high digital literacy rather than mere negligence. These conditions complicate the application of pure diversion as mandated by law; thus, this study recommends a hybrid punishment approach where law enforcement proceeds to break impunity, but sanctions focus on specific rehabilitation in the Special Guidance Institution for Children (LPKA) to reorient the children's digital skills positively.

This study evaluates the AIESEC Incoming Global Volunteer (IGV) Program at the Veteran National Development University in Yogyakarta using the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) evaluation model.

Employee performance is a strategic aspect that plays an important role in achieving company goals, especially in facing increasingly fierce business competition. Employee performance is not formed directly, but is influenced by various internal organizational factors, such as work discipline, compensation systems, and work environment conditions. This study aims to analyze the influence of work discipline, compensation, and work environment on employee performance at PT Dunia Aneka Usaha. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach. The sampling technique used is a saturated sample, so that the entire population of 70 employees was used as research respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires compiled based on indicators of each variable and measured using a Likert scale. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests to ensure the quality of the research instrument, as well as statistical analysis in the form of t-tests, F-tests, and multiple linear regression analysis to test the proposed hypotheses. The results of the study indicate that work discipline, compensation, and work environment have a positive and significant effect on employee performance, both partially and simultaneously. These findings indicate that improving work discipline, providing appropriate compensation, and creating a conducive work environment can encourage improved employee performance. Therefore, companies are advised to manage these three factors sustainably so that employee performance improves and organizational goals can be achieved optimally.

The informal institution of mutual cooperation (gotong royong) in the rice farming community in Bhera Village, Mego District, Sikka Regency, remains the main foundation of social solidarity and the sustainability of agricultural activities even though modernization and the use of labor have begun to shift traditional values. A qualitative approach with a case study method was used to explore the role, form, and meaning of mutual cooperation in agricultural practices. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies of rice farmers who are active in mutual cooperation activities. Data analysis was carried out through reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions using triangulation techniques to ensure the validity of the findings. The results show that mutual cooperation is manifested in every stage of farming, from uprooting seedlings, planting (planting), clearing weeds, to harvesting, which is carried out voluntarily and in turns through the Irutan Tradition system. This institution functions as a collective work mechanism that reduces production costs, overcomes labor shortages, and strengthens social ties between farmers. Beyond its economic function, mutual cooperation has profound social and cultural significance as a symbol of brotherhood, togetherness, and collective responsibility in maintaining the sustainability of local wisdom and the resilience of farming communities amidst social and technological change.
