Financial management, both in public and private organizations, is highly vulnerable to fraud and misappropriation of funds. The risk of fraud in financial reporting not only jeopardizes an organization's long-term financial health but also damages the reputation and trust of stakeholders. Professional ethics and integrity are key factors in ensuring good, efficient, and effective financial governance. Weak internalization of professional ethical values ​​among financial practitioners, such as manipulation of financial reports and unauthorized use of official funds, is often a major cause of misappropriation of funds. These cases can significantly harm an organization, as seen in violations of codes of ethics in various large companies. Therefore, strengthening professional ethics in financial management practices is crucial to prevent misappropriation of funds, fraud, or financial manipulation. A strong internal control system, coupled with a good ethical culture, can play a significant role in preventing and detecting these conditions. This study aims to identify factors that support and hinder the implementation of professional ethics in financial management and provide recommendations for improving integrity and accountability in fund management. It is hoped that the results of this study will help organizations strengthen governance, increase transparency, and reduce the risk of fraud through better implementation of professional ethics.

This article aims to provide a comprehensive literature review on how professional ethics can serve as an effective strategy to prevent fund misuse within organizational financial management. Professional ethics is viewed as a set of moral values, behavioral norms, and professional standards that guide financial managers to perform their duties with honesty, responsibility, and without conflicts of interest. In the context of financial management, these duties include recording, budgeting, monitoring, and reporting financial activities, all of which require accuracy and transparency. The study highlights five main principles of professional ethics: integrity, objectivity, professional competence, confidentiality, and professional behavior. These principles clarify rules, strengthen accountability, and ensure that financial processes comply with established standards. The literature review shows that applying professional ethics not only encourages individuals to act correctly but also enhances responsibility, improves performance, and strengthens financial oversight. Integrity and objectivity play a crucial role in preventing report manipulation, budget inflation, and fund misuse, as these principles demand moral courage and fair decision-making. Professional competence ensures that every financial process is carried out accurately and in accordance with regulations, while confidentiality protects sensitive information from misuse. Professional behavior emphasizes adherence to laws, organizational policies, and professional standards. The article also identifies several supporting factors that enable the effective implementation of professional ethics, such as strong internal policies, leadership commitment to integrity, an ethical workplace culture, layered supervision systems, and continuous ethics training. Conversely, common challenges include weak internal controls, limited understanding of ethics, organizational pressure, conflicts of interest, and inconsistent application of ethical standards. Therefore, this article underscores that integrating professional ethics into organizational financial policies, procedures, and management systems is a key step in preventing fund misuse and strengthening stakeholder trust in the organization’s transparency and accountability.

Hypertension remains a significant public health problem in Indonesia, including in the Parang Banoa neighborhood, Pallangga District, Gowa Regency. Therefore, this Field Learning Experience (PBL) activity was implemented with the aim of increasing community knowledge about hypertension, particularly regarding its prevention and control. The activity was carried out through several stages, including health education, questionnaires, and blood pressure checks for residents of RT 002 in the Parang Banoa neighborhood. The interventions provided included health education, distribution of educational posters, and blood pressure checks for 11 respondents. Results showed an increase in community knowledge after the intervention. Prior to the education, most respondents had sufficient knowledge (81.8%), with a small proportion having insufficient knowledge (18.2%). However, after the education, all respondents (100%) experienced an increase in knowledge regarding hypertension prevention and control. Therefore, ongoing health education and healthy lifestyle changes, such as reducing salt intake, quitting smoking, and regular exercise, are needed. These efforts are expected to reduce the incidence of hypertension in the Parang Banoa neighborhood and improve overall community health.

The development of social media as part of digital technology has significantly transformed patterns of social interaction among adolescents in Indonesia. Social media no longer functions solely as a medium for communication and self-expression, but also as a social space that influences behavioral formation, including deviant and criminal behavior. This study aims to analyze the influence of social media on juvenile criminal behavior from a criminological perspective, with particular attention to social learning processes and the weakening of social control in digital environments. This research employs a qualitative method using a literature study approach by examining scientific journals, official reports, and statistical data related to social media use and adolescent behavior. The findings indicate that high intensity of social media use, exposure to negative content, and the normalization of aggressive behavior in digital spaces contribute to increased vulnerability of adolescents to criminal behaviors such as cyberbullying, online aggression, and other forms of deviance. Within the framework of Social Learning Theory, social media serves as a medium for behavioral learning through mechanisms of observation, imitation, and social reinforcement, while Social Control Theory highlights how weak supervision by families and educational institutions amplifies the risk of deviant behavior. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of preventive, non-penal approaches through strengthening social control, improving digital literacy, and enhancing the active role of families and schools to minimize the risk of juvenile criminal behavior in the digital era.

The development of social media in the digital era has a significant impact on the lives of students, both academically and morally. High levels of social media use are often accompanied by low self-control, potentially leading to impulsive behavior, digital addiction, and moral degradation. This study aims to analyze the effect of learning Aqidah Akhlak (Islamic Creed) on students' self-control in social media use. The method used was library research, reviewing various relevant literature in the form of books, scientific journals, and other academic sources. The results indicate that learning Aqidah Akhlak plays a crucial role in shaping spiritual awareness, strengthening the values ​​of patience, mujahadah an-nafs (self-control), iffah (self-control), and taqwa (obedience to God), which contribute to increased student self-control. By internalizing the values ​​of monotheism and morality, students are better able to use social media wisely and proportionally.

Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the infectious diseases that remains a public health problem in Indonesia, including in West Java Province, which has a large population and high mobility.

It compares voluntary compliance models with mandatory legal frameworks, noting the limitations of voluntary agreements in driving substantial environmental changes. Findings show that countries with strong legal frameworks, like the EU and Australia, achieve higher corporate compliance and environmental performance, while voluntary measures struggle to produce meaningful results. The study emphasizes the need for stronger enforcement, higher penalties for violations, and enhanced public transparency. Additionally, it explores integrating environmental justice considerations, such as community participation and fair compensation, into national strategies. The study offers policy recommendations for improving corporate responsibility through better legislation, harmonizing laws across jurisdictions, and fostering collaboration among governments, corporations, and civil society. It also suggests future research directions, including examining the long-term impacts of environmental justice policies in different global contexts.

This study focuses on the analysis of traffic density in Jember City, particularly at the Wirolegi Intersection, which is known to have a high density level. This condition often triggers congestion that hinders public mobility, so that appropriate and data-based handling efforts are needed. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the level of density at critical congestion points through a statistical approach using the One Way ANOVA method. The research method used is quantitative descriptive with a descriptive observational approach. Primary data was collected directly through a field survey in 2025 at the Wirolegi Intersection as one of 3 intersections in Jember City. The data obtained were then processed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, and One Way ANOVA with the help of SPSS software. The results of the analysis show that the traffic flow density on the three routes studied, namely Jalan Gunung Haryono, Jalan Brigjen Katamso, Jalan Yos Sudarso, does not show a significant difference. The significance value of the ANOVA test is greater than 0.05 which indicates the similarity of density levels between routes. Further testing (post hoc testing) also strengthens this finding. The conclusion of this study shows that handling congestion at the Wirolegi Intersection needs to be done comprehensively through traffic control and evaluation of the transportation system to improve smoothness and mobility in Jember City.

The rapid development of digital technology has increased the intensity of social media use among adolescents, particularly Instagram, leading to a decline in social interaction, low emotional regulation, and an increased tendency toward addictive behavior. Within the context of guidance and counseling, art possesses therapeutic potential, enabling students to express themselves and manage digital behaviors more adaptively. This study is a literature review analyzing seven selected scientific articles regarding the utilization of art in group counseling services. The analysis was conducted through data extraction of article characteristics, including research design, instruments, findings, and implications. The results indicate that art plays a significant role in supporting group dynamics, enhancing emotional regulation, and providing alternative activities capable of diverting students' attention from excessive Instagram use. Structured art activities also facilitate the development of self-awareness and self-control, thereby reducing the frequency of Instagram usage. These findings suggest that art-assisted group counseling is an effective and relevant strategy for guidance and counseling teachers to implement in addressing digital challenges within the school environment.

Language barriers represent one of the most significant obstacles to educational equity and access worldwide. This study investigates the application of Natural Language Processing (NLP) technologies in multilingual educational contexts to facilitate cross-linguistic learning and improve educational outcomes for linguistically diverse student populations. We implemented and evaluated a comprehensive NLP-powered multilingual learning platform across 47 educational institutions in 12 countries, serving 8,450 students speaking 23 different languages. Our experimental framework integrated machine translation, speech recognition, multilingual content generation, and adaptive language learning algorithms. Results demonstrate that NLP-enhanced multilingual education improved student comprehension by 43.6% (p<0.001), increased participation rates by 67.8%, and reduced achievement gaps between native and non-native speakers by 52.4%. Students using NLP-assisted learning tools achieved test scores averaging 78.3% compared to 54.7% for control groups. However, challenges persist regarding cultural context preservation, idiomatic expression handling, and equitable performance across language families. This research provides evidence that NLP technologies can effectively democratize education across linguistic boundaries while identifying critical areas requiring continued development.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the implementation of the Intelligent Tutoring Sistem (ITS) based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) on improving the understanding of mathematical concepts, especially in fractional and basic geometry materials, in Class V students of SD Negeri 2 Badran, Temanggung Regency. The research method used was a quasiexperimental experiment with a Non-equivalent Control Group Design. The research sample consisted of 48 students who were divided into two groups, namely the experimental group (n=24) who received learning with the help of AI-based ITS, and the control group (n=24) who received conventional learning with lecture methods and practice questions. The research instrument is in the form of a test of understanding of mathematical concepts that has been validated by experts and tested for reliability. Data were analyzed using parametric statistical tests of the Independent Sample t-test and N-Gain Score to measure the improvement. The results showed that there was a significant difference in understanding of mathematical concepts between the experimental group and the control group. The average post-test score of the experimental group (82.45) was significantly higher than that of the control group (70.12) with a p< value of 0.05. N-Gain analysis showed that the improvement in conceptual understanding in the experimental group was in the "moderate" category (g=0.56), while the control group was in the "low" category (g=0.32). These findings indicate that AI-based ITS is effective in improving students' understanding of mathematical concepts. The advantages of the system lie in its ability to provide instant feedback, personalize materials according to learning pace, and present interactive materials, thus helping to better construct students' conceptual understanding. It is recommended that schools consider the integration of ITS technology as a supplementary tool in mathematics learning at the elementary level.

Background: In the domain of corporate governance, the separation of ownership and control generates significant agency conflicts, primarily manifesting as Earnings Management (EM). Traditional reactive auditing methods fail to detect manipulation concealed within unstructured data, leading to high agency costs and diminished stakeholder trust. Objective: This study proposes an "AI Proactive Monitoring Model" utilizing Generative Artificial Intelligence to fundamentally enhance the monitoring mechanisms of Agency Theory. Methods: The research employs a qualitative conceptual framework analysis. It synthesizes Agency Theory with the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Systemic Risk Theory to construct a novel strategic governance model. Results: The proposed model shifts governance from periodic sampling to real-time, continuous analysis of total data populations. By cross-referencing structured financial data with unstructured communications (e.g., emails, contracts), the system generates "Risk Narratives" that contextualize anomalies and flag opportunistic behavior immediately. Conclusion: The integration of AI significantly reduces information asymmetry and moral hazard by creating a "panopticon" effect. However, successful implementation requires distinct regulatory frameworks to manage the systemic risks associated with algorithmic reliance.

This activity demonstrates that health education is effective in improving community awareness and knowledge regarding diabetes mellitus prevention and management. This educational program is effective in increasing the knowledge of the people of Rejomulyo Village, Jati Agung District, South Lampung Regency regarding diabetes mellitus.

Participatory village development planning is often treated as a technical-administrative routine. In practice, however, planning is inseparable from political dynamics that shape who participates, whose interests prevail, and how scarce resources are allocated. This community empowerment program (PKM) in Kedung Udi Village, Trawas District, Mojokerto Regency, East Java, aimed to strengthen village governance by enhancing the capacity of village officials and community representatives to design and facilitate participatory planning while explicitly addressing the political dimension of planning. The main intervention was a workshop conducted on 22 August 2025, preceded by coordination and situational observation. Workshop modules emphasized: (1) planning as a political decision; (2) navigating dual arenas: formal (Musdes/Musrenbang and RPJMDes, RKPDes, APBDes) and informal (elite networks and gatekeeping); (3) multi-level contestation and policy alignment; and (4) practical tools, including power–interest mapping, programmatic agreements, program tagging for alignment with district planning documents, and transparency/anti elite capture mechanisms. The program resulted in improved participant literacy regarding power relations in planning and produced a follow-up action plan oriented toward institutional advocacy, continuous social control, and routine capacity reinforcement through a university and village partnership.
