This research examines “Karang Awake Tandurin”, the oral expression of the Balinese people, which is the domain of intangible culture. Cultural expressions taken from the work of Ida Pedanda Made Sidemen from Griya Intaran Sanur. This excerpt from the text Karang Awake Tandurin is published in the Traditional Balinese Literary work Geguritan Selampah Laku, a Balinese work that was composed and written by himself and tells the personal life history of Ida Pedanda Made Sidemen in Bali Script. This research used a post-structural approach from critical theories. The theories used were Jauss’ reception theory, Pierce’s semiotic theory, and Barthes’ mythology theory. The meaning entities of the Balinese words ‘karang’, ‘awak’ and ‘tandurin’ actually both stand alone, however in life, the use of the three depends on each other, in humans’ relationship with nature and agrarian culture. ‘Tandurin’ is a representation of agricultural activities, ‘karang’ is a representation of nature, and ‘awak’ is a representation of humans. Delve into yourself, understand yourself, reflect on it to its roots, and your perception will become higher. Melting into and becoming the idea of Ida Pedanda Made Sidemen invites every reader to look inside themselves and no longer look elsewhere to start simple life

Tandikek is a hilly area in Padang Pariaman district. Tradition cannot be separated from the traces of human travel, as a characteristic form found in a social group and formed naturally which continuously reproduces practices in the process of interaction. With a disaster or disaster occurring in the midst of the Tandikek Community, the Community will carry out the Ratik tradition of rejecting evil. Tandikek people believe in this tradition, because of the existence of supernatural powers. This is what makes them always carry out the tradition of 'resist evil'. The first problem in this article is the role of the Ratik tradition in repelling reinforcements for the Tandikek Community. The theory used in this problem is the Redcliffe-Brown functional structural theory, which states that aspects of social behavior do not develop for individual needs, but to maintain the social structure of society. The tradition of ratik rejecting reinforcements at tandikek is one of the local wisdoms. The ratik tradition of rejecting reinforcements has maintained and fostered social ties among the Tandikek community. Society realizes that there must be harmony between humans and supernatural beings.

Abstract. Public transportation is often considered a practical solution for reducing traffic congestion. However, initial surveys conducted after implementing the TEMAN Bus service along Corridor 2 showed low enthusiasm among commuters. Only 14.103% of them used the service. This study aims to identify areas for improvement to increase public interest in utilizing this service. Corridor 2 runs from Mall Panakkukang to Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport and vice versa. The study focuses on four main categories of variables: service level, service quality, socialization/information, and stop services. To assess public interest in the TEMAN Bus service along Corridor 2, this study used observations and distributed questionnaires. The questionnaire data was then analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) after undergoing validity and reliability tests. The study found that the variable of stop services was the primary factor contributing to the low level of public interest.

The development and progress of science, especially in the field of building materials technology, has encouraged the birth of new concepts, especially for construction made of concrete. One of these new concepts is by presenting innovations in the manufacture of lightweight concrete to reduce the excessive use of bricks / concrete blocks as non-structural building materials such as walls. One way to overcome this is to use lightweight concrete as a precast wall or as a brick. Its use can reduce the magnitude of the load acting on the building and is fast in installation. The purpose of this research on lightweight concrete with a mixture of bamboo shavings is to determine the properties of the stacking material, the relationship between mechanical properties at the age of 14 and 28 days of concrete with no soaking conditions, and the effect of the addition of bamboo shavings. The tests and examinations carried out were compressive strength, strain, and content weight of lightweight concrete. The results showed that lightweight concrete with the most ideal bamboo shavings mixture was 1 cement: 1-1.5 bamboo shavings: 2 sand (fas value: 0.8) has a compressive strength of 1.65 MPa and 1.63 Mpa, respectively, for a content weight of 753.01 kg/m3 and 609.66 kg/m3.

The spread of the Covid-19 virus and the emergence of various variants became a global pandemic in just a matter of minutes.  The Indonesian government swiftly implemented several policies to prevent the spread of the virus.  In the pandemic phase which requires social distancing for the community.  The government does not stop urging the public to always obey health regulations and protocols.  Moreover, the role of regional governments is very central in handling the Covid-19 pandemic, even though they limit direct contact with the community, thanks to advances in science and technology, central or regional leaders can use social media to convey texts or videos in the form of appeals to the public.  After passing through the pandemic phase, the time has come to rebuild and overcome various problems that have arisen due to the impact of the pandemic.  Conditions after the Covid-19 pandemic have become the focus of attention of regional governments, including Regional Heads in Central Java.  This research uses a qualitative research approach.  The aim of qualitative research consists of describing the research object, expressing the meaning behind the phenomenon, and explaining the phenomenon that occurs.  The method used is descriptive and content analysis.  Data is obtained critically through speech discourse contained in content on social media and produces inferences regarding the use of spoken language as a form of speech act.  The results of this research show that in the speech video of the Central Java Regional Head, Ganjar Pranowo, there is macro structure (thematic) analysis, superstructure (schematic) analysis and micro structure analysis.  Macro structure analyzes discourse that influences thoughts, actions and implied ideologies.  Superstructure analysis understands the way speech discourse is structured and the appearance of its interactions.  Meanwhile, microstructural analysis reveals that the language conveyed by Ganjar Pranowo aims to achieve certain communications.

Learning pattern is a process or sequence in learning that can help children understand a topic. Children's learning patterns are different because children have different learning characteristics. This study aims to determine the learning patterns of children of cigarette factory workers in parental guidance based on structural and functional studies. This study uses a case study qualitative research method. Qualitative research is a research technique that provides descriptive information in the form of speech or writing and observed individual behavior. Case studies are an appropriate strategy for research where how or why research questions are used, the researcher has little time to control the events being studied, and the focus of the research is on current phenomena that follow current events. The data collection technique was carried out by means of literature study, recording, interviews, recording and documentation. In this study also used an interactive model with steps that include data collection, presentation and drawing conclusions in analyzing data. Based on the results of the research, it shows that the learning pattern applied by children whose parents work in factories is an independent learning pattern where children study at home independently and are also caged with the help of their older siblings and parents. From this research, there are implications, namely children whose parents are factory workers already have good preparation for learning before starting learning. Making school lesson schedules, taking notes on subject matter. However, noting the subject matter has not been fully implemented properly, because there are children who want to learn when given homework. In addition, there are also children who are able to complete their own homework and are sometimes assisted by their siblings.

An audit is a systematic, independent examination of financial statements, accounting records, and supporting documents prepared by management, the purpose of which is to form an opinion on the accuracy of financial statements. Financial statements must have relevant characteristics (reliability) and reliability (reliability). Without the services of auditors, management cannot convince outsiders that the financial statements presented by management contain reliable and reliable information. Independence is the auditor's attitude to impartiality. The experience of the examiner contributes to high-quality inspection. The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of auditor behavior, time pressure, audit experience, and independence on audit quality.   The research was conducted at a Public Accounting Firm (KAP) in Medan City. The number of research samples of 80 people was selected by the nonprobability sampling method. Data collection was carried out by questionnaire through Google form and literature studies that supported this study. The method used in this study is to use the Structural Equation Model (SEM) equation using the Partial Least Square (PLS) tool version 3.0. PLS consists of external relationships (outer model) and internal relationships (inner model), cross-loading> 0.7, Composite Reliability, Convergent Validity, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Based on the results of the analysis, it was found that the first, second, fourth, and seventh hypotheses were rejected where each variable such as auditor behavior, and time pressure,  did not affect audit quality and independence could not moderate the influence between auditor behavior on audit quality,  independence could not moderate audit quality. The third, fifth, and sixth hypotheses are accepted where each variable such as audit experience, independence moderates the effect of time pressure on audit quality, and independence moderates the effect of audit experience on audit quality.

Designing and validating structural causal model (SCM) correctness from a dataset whose background knowledge is obtained from a research process is not a common phenomenon. Studies have shown that in many critical areas, such as healthcare and education, researchers develop models from direct acyclic graphs (DAG), a component of an SCM, without testing them. This phenomenon is worrisome and is bound to cast a shadow on the inference estimates that may arise from such models. In this study, we have designed a novel application-based SCM for the first time using the background knowledge obtained from the Early Grade Reading Assessment (EGRA) program called the Strengthen Education in Northeast Nigeria (SENSE-EGRA), which is an educational intervention program of the American University of Nigeria (AUN), Yola, on the letter identification subtask. This project was sponsored by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). We employed the conditional independence test (CIT) criteria for the validation of the SCM’s correctness, and the results show a near-perfect SCM.

This research has the objective of analyzing the relationship between the work environment, work culture and workload related to employee performance in an agency or company. This research uses quantitative methods through descriptive analysis, as well as online data collection using the Microsoft Forms Platform with a Likert scale of 1 to 5 with the Purposive Sampling method, there are 57 respondents with the age criteria 18-30 and currently working. Processed using the SmartPLS 4.0.9.2 application program. with Structural Eqution Modeling (SEM). The results showed that, the work environment is influential in supporting or improving the performance of its employees for the better and can produce quality work done by its employees. The work environment can be maximized when a company can implement or create a conducive, collaborative environment, and pay attention to all aspects such as the physical and psychological of its employees. Such factors as sufficient facilities, social support, and job security can increase employee performance productivity. Organizational work culture also plays an important role in shaping employee performance. Organizations with a culture that encourages innovation, collaboration, and employee motivation have better performance. Conversely, a work culture that does not support employees can hinder employee performance. Workload in accordance with individual capacity also affects employee performance. Too high a workload can lead to excessive stress and fatigue, which negatively impacts productivity. Therefore, wise management in determining workload is essential. From this study, it can be concluded that a good work environment, positive work culture, and workload adjustment can significantly improve employee performance. A company or an agency needs to pay attention to these factors to achieve optimal productivity and job satisfaction in the midst of intense competition between agencies.

Corruption in Indonesia is a chronic problem that damages the social and economic structure of the country. This paper explores the history of corruption from feudal times to the modern era, highlighting corrupt practices as part of the culture of government. The government has taken serious steps by establishing anti-corruption regulations and institutions to eradicate corruption that harms society and the state. This research uses the literature study method with a focus on improving governance and increasing transparency as an effort to prevent corruption. Through qualitative analysis, this research evaluates the effectiveness of existing anti-corruption regulations and institutions, as well as understanding the impact of corruption on people's social and economic rights. The results show that the government has taken concrete steps, such as establishing the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) and encouraging the use of information technology. However, the fight against corruption is faced with structural, cultural, instrumental and management barriers. Measures to improve governance and increase transparency are key to preventing corruption. Challenges include organized corruption, corrupt practices in the private sector, and non-compliance with regulations. Lack of resources is a constraint, and corruption in complex bureaucratic systems complicates case handling. Improving coordination, transparency, and public participation is needed to overcome these challenges. The government needs to continuously monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of corruption-fighting measures. Regular evaluation, public participation, and human resource capacity building are key to creating a strong and resilient system against corrupt practices. Collective awareness and cooperation between the government, anti-corruption organizations, and society are essential to build an Indonesia that is clean from corruption and just for all its people.  

An investigation into the building is carried out to determine the suitability and safety of the building and the strength of the structure. The investigations to be carried out include field and laboratory investigations. This is done to determine the feasibility and safety of existing structures. Apart from that, it is also hoped that this investigation can provide recommendations regarding repair or strengthening methods if necessary, referring to the requirements for Structural Concrete for Buildings SNI 2847:2019 and Procedures for Earthquake Resistance Planning for Building and Non-Building Structures SNI 2847:2019. From the results of structural testing using UPV and Hammer Test, it was found that the structural system is an open frame consisting of plates, beams and columns using concrete material, while the joists use steel plinths. The reinforcing steel used uses plain iron U40 as flexible reinforcement with shear reinforcement with U24. The quality of concrete obtained respectively for column f'c 25 MPa, beam f'c 22 MPa and floor slab f'c 22 MPa. Based on the results of the floor leveling survey to record the potential for building subsidence or floor sagging using a water level, it was concluded that there was no slope found in the building as a whole. The deflection that occurs is local and relatively flat. To meet the requirements, strengthening was carried out by increasing the dimensions of the columns and beams, adding plates to the steel profiles on the flange and web.

A quantitative research approach was employed, involving 192 participants chosen through purposive sampling. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed as the data analysis method. Findings of this study reveal that both the school zoning system and school culture exhibit a significant, positive influence on student motivation and academic achievement. Consequently, these factors culminate in the enhancement of education quality within public senior high schools located in Semarang City. In sum, the study underscores the critical role of the zoning system and school culture in shaping student motivation, achievement, and, subsequently, the overall quality of education within the realm of public senior high schools.

The main objective of this research is to determine the role of turnover intention in mediating the adaptation of green culture on the work productivity of lecturers at private universities in Medan City. The approach in this research is quantitative. The population comes from 5 private universities in Medan City, totaling 728 students. The sampling technique used cluster sampling, where 258 educational staff were used as research samples. The data analysis technique for this research uses statistical analysis, namely the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM), which aims to carry out path analysis with latent variables. The results of data analysis show that the adaptation of green culture directly has a significant effect on employee work productivity. Then, turnover intention hurts employee work productivity. Finally, indirect turnover intention does not significantly mediate the adaptation of green culture on employee work productivity. The implications of the findings in this research show that green cultural adaptation currently needs to be carried out by private universities. The provision of green open space and green cultural values at the private higher education level in Medan City has yet to be consistently and sustainably implemented.
