This study aims to analyze the influence of organizational culture and leadership on work discipline in employees of the Woja District Office, both partially and simultaneously. Using a saturated sample, all employees in the agency were directly involved as respondents as many as 45 respondents. Primary data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis techniques. The results of the study showed that partially, organizational culture had a positive and significant effect on employee work discipline, while leadership did not have a significant influence independently. However, simultaneous testing proves that organizational culture and leadership together have a positive and significant influence on shaping employee work discipline. These findings indicate that although personal leadership style is not the primary determinant of discipline that has been bound by bureaucratic regulations, the synergy between internalizing strong work culture values and leadership support remains an important combination for an orderly work ecosystem. This research provides practical implications for government organizations in strengthening work culture, increasing leadership effectiveness, and creating a work environment that is able to encourage employee compliance, responsibility, and productivity in a sustainable manner.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of efficiency, effectiveness, and consistency in the Standard Operating Procedure for goods procurement in the purchasing department of The Oberoi Beach Resort, Bali. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through semi-structured interviews, observation, and documentation. The informants included parties directly involved in procurement activities, namely the Purchasing Manager, Purchasing Supervisor, Purchasing Staff, Receiving Staff, and user departments. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings show that the goods procurement SOP has been implemented in a structured manner through Purchase Requisition submission, document approval, Purchase Order issuance, supplier ordering, and goods inspection by the receiving department. The SOP is effective in supporting hotel operational needs and relatively consistent because control stages are maintained even under urgent requests. However, efficiency has not been fully optimized because administrative and approval processes still rely on a manual paper-based system. Other barriers include inventory data input errors, supplier stock limitations, customs constraints, and weather-related distribution disruptions. This study recommends the implementation of e-procurement, stronger interdepartmental coordination, improved inventory data accuracy, and supplier diversification.

This study examines the influence of financial literacy, Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), and influencer marketing on Generation Z's decision to use Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) services in Dompu Regency. The rapid development of financial technology has encouraged the widespread adoption of BNPL as an alternative digital payment method, particularly among young consumers. However, the increasing use of this service also raises concerns regarding financial decision-making and consumer behavior. This research employed a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 100 Generation Z respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings indicate that financial literacy has a positive and significant effect on BNPL usage decisions. Likewise, FOMO significantly influences individuals' decisions to utilize BNPL services, while influencer marketing also demonstrates a positive and significant contribution to users' decisions. Simultaneously, the three independent variables significantly affect BNPL usage decisions, explaining 27% of the variance in the dependent variable. These findings suggest that financial knowledge, psychological factors, and social influence collectively shape Generation Z's financial behavior. Therefore, strengthening financial literacy and promoting responsible use of digital financial services are essential to encourage more informed and sustainable financial decision-making.

This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of tax burden, tax compliance, and tax-saving strategies and their influence on business survival strategies in Indonesia’s retail and trade sector amid the economic slowdown in 2026. Indonesia’s economic growth declined to 4.2% in the first quarter of 2026 from 5.1% in the previous year, creating considerable pressure on business sustainability, particularly in the retail and trade sector. This research employed a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 120 retail and trade business owners located in Jakarta, West Java, and Banten. Respondents were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that met validity and reliability requirements and were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 26 after fulfilling the classical assumption tests. The results indicate that tax burden (B = 0.287; p < 0.001), tax compliance (B = 0.341; p < 0.001), and tax-saving strategies (B = 0.398; p < 0.001) each have a positive and significant effect on business survival strategies, both individually and simultaneously. The F-test (F = 62.847; p < 0.001) confirms the overall significance of the regression model, while the coefficient of determination (R² = 0.621) shows that the three independent variables explain 62.1% of the variance in business survival strategies. These findings suggest that effective tax management, combined with the lawful utilization of tax incentives, plays a crucial role in strengthening business resilience and ensuring the sustainability of retail and trade businesses during periods of economic uncertainty.

The implementation of Income Tax Article 22 on import activities plays a strategic role in securing state revenue and controlling international trade flows. However, corporate taxpayers frequently encounter substantial barriers regarding regulatory compliance and technical administrative procedures. This study aims to analyze the compliance level of corporate taxpayers concerning the collection and reporting of Income Tax Article 22 on import activities, while identifying the primary obstacles faced during the process. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach conducted at the Tax Allowance Office. Primary data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with corporate taxpayers and tax authorities, supplemented by secondary data from tax compliance reports and related documentation. The findings indicate that while formal compliance regarding timely reporting has significantly improved due to digital administrative transformations like the e-Bupot system, substantial challenges remain in material compliance. Corporate taxpayers routinely face difficulties in classifying import tariff codes accurately and interpreting the frequent updates to tax incentives. This study implies that the tax authority needs to intensify specialized socialization programs and optimize the integration of data systems between the Directorate General of Taxes and the Directorate General of Customs and Excise. These strategic improvements are crucial to minimizing administrative discrepancies and enhancing overall tax compliance.

This study aims to analyze the effect of capital structure, asset growth, and firm size on firm value in plastic and packaging sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2020–2024 period. Firm value is proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV), capital structure is measured using the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), asset growth is measured by the asset growth ratio, and firm size is measured using the natural logarithm of total assets. This research employed an explanatory quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from financial statements, annual reports, and stock price data. The sample consisted of 11 companies observed over five years, resulting in 55 panel data observations. Data were analyzed using panel data regression through the Common Effect Model, Fixed Effect Model, and Random Effect Model, with model selection based on the Chow, Hausman, and Lagrange Multiplier tests. The results indicate that capital structure, asset growth, and firm size have no significant effect on firm value, either partially or simultaneously. These findings suggest that firm value in the plastic and packaging sub-sector is not sufficiently explained by financing structure, asset expansion, or company size. Investors are more likely to consider other factors, such as profitability, operational efficiency, cash flow, sales growth, raw material risk, and sustainability prospects. Therefore, companies should improve financial performance, asset efficiency, cost control, and sustainable innovation to enhance firm value.

This study examines the partial and simultaneous effects of promotional strategies, risk perception, and resale price perception on public interest in gold investment at PT Pegadaian Dompu Branch. The research employed a quantitative explanatory approach involving 96 respondents selected from a population of 50,000 customers using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 26. The findings reveal that promotional strategies have a positive and significant influence on public interest in gold investment, indicating that effective promotional activities encourage customers to invest. Risk perception also shows a positive and significant effect, suggesting that customers with better understanding and management of investment risks are more inclined to invest in gold. In addition, resale price perception positively and significantly affects investment interest, reflecting the importance of customers' confidence in obtaining favorable resale values. Simultaneous testing using the F-test confirms that the three independent variables jointly have a significant effect on public interest in gold investment. The coefficient of determination shows an Adjusted R Square value of 33.9%, meaning that promotional strategies, risk perception, and resale price perception explain 33.9% of the variation in investment interest, while the remaining 66.1% is influenced by other factors not included in this research model.

Article 1 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia affirms Indonesia as a state based on law, yet in practice Indonesia's legal system faces a structural problem of hyperregulation and overregulation, characterized by massive regulatory proliferation and regulatory disharmony without adequate corrective mechanisms. This condition is likewise reflected in Semarang Regency, which has 673 active legal products with Regional Head Regulations dominating at 77.3%, while Regional Regulation No. 10 of 2021 on the Formation of Regional Legal Products has not yet accommodated a legal analysis and evaluation mechanism. This study aims to explore the urgency of regional regulatory reform through legal analysis and evaluation mechanisms and to construct an implementation model in Semarang Regency. This study employs a prescriptive socio-legal research method with an interdisciplinary approach. The findings indicate that this condition reflects the dominance of primary rules without adequate institutionalization of secondary rules within H.L.A. Hart's perspective, while simultaneously representing a dysfunction in legal substance with cyclical impacts on legal structure and legal culture according to Lawrence M. Friedman. Therefore, a regulatory governance-based analysis and evaluation model is needed, integrating the regulatory cycle from ex ante to ex post with multistakeholder coordination and evaluation grounded in BPHN's 6-dimension framework

This study aims to analyze the relationship between epistemology and scientific logic in the development of scientific knowledge using a library research approach by reviewing relevant literature in the fields of philosophy of science, theory of knowledge, and principles of scientific logic. The findings indicate that epistemology serves as a philosophical foundation for understanding the origin, structure, and validity of knowledge, while scientific logic functions as a systematic tool that guides reasoning in constructing rational and consistent scientific truth. Both have a complementary relationship, where epistemology provides a normative framework for determining the criteria of knowledge validity, and scientific logic ensures that the reasoning process is structured, coherent, and free from fallacies. Therefore, the integration of epistemology and scientific logic plays a crucial role in producing scientific knowledge that is objective, measurable, and academically accountable, while also enhancing the overall quality and credibility of the scientific process.

Cattle farming plays a strategic role in rural economic development by generating employment, supplementary household income, and contributing to food and nutritional security. However, in Indonesia, most smallholder cattle enterprises remain traditional and small-scale, leading farmers to treat livestock farming primarily as a secondary livelihood. While previous studies have largely focused on technical adoption and production performance, limited attention has been given to farmers’ psychological interest as a foundation for sustaining livestock enterprises. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the level of community interest in cattle farming and examine the influence of farmers’ characteristics (age, education level, herd size, number of family dependents, farming experience, and primary income) on such interest. A quantitative survey was conducted involving 34 cattle farmers in Taji Village, Jabung District, Malang Regency, selected using total sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that community interest in cattle farming is generally high, as reflected in emotional (3.93), cognitive (3.81), and conative (3.74) dimensions measured on a four-point Likert scale. Regression results indicate that age has a significant positive effect (p = 0.022), whereas farming experience has a significant negative effect (p = 0.025) on interest levels. Other variables show no statistically significant influence. These findings highlight that psychological engagement in cattle farming is shaped more by demographic and experiential factors than by formal education or income level. The study contributes to the literature by positioning interest as a psychological determinant of livestock sustainability. Policy implications emphasize the urgency of risk-mitigation extension programs to address farmer burnout, incentivized intergenerational knowledge transfer, and cooperative-based institutional support to ensure smallholder livestock sustainability.

This study addressed the lack of visual communication media within PT Mensa BinaSukses, which resulted in a lack of togetherness. The visual media at the previous event failed to effectively convey the main message to the employees. To solve this problem, the researchers redesigned the visual communication tools, specifically banners and digital posters, using a User-Centered Design approach. The redesign process applied visual communication principles, focusing on color psychology, typography, and structured layouts to enhance message readability. The evaluation revealed a significant increase in the level of employee attendance. The survey results indicated that the redesigned visual media successfully captured employee attention, clarified event information, and fostered a strong sense of togetherness and collaboration with the company.

This study aims to analyze the strengthening of digital marketing at Kasandi Foil Pond Printing in optimizing market reach and sales. This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation involving the business owner directly. The result show that the implementation of digital marketing is still not optimal, as indicated by the Instagram account that has not been actively used and the use of WhatsApp which is still limited to simple communication and has not been structured as a marketing strategy. The strengthening efforts are carried out through three main strategies, namely optimizing the use of social media, creating attractive visual content, and improving online customer interaction. The visual content created using applications such as Canva and CorelDRAW is able to increase the attractiveness of promotions and attract potential customers. In addition, consistency in posting content and quick responses through WhatsApp also contribute to increased interaction and transaction opportunities. Therefore, strengthening digital marketing based on visual media and digital interaction has the potential to increase market reach and sales if implemented consistently.

Breastfeeding should ideally begin immediately after birth and be provided exclusively for the first six months of life. However, in 2022, the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding among infants aged 0–6 months in Jayapura was only 21%, which remains far below the national target of 45%. Various factors contribute to this low coverage, including limited knowledge, lack of experience, insufficient support systems, and concerns among adolescent mothers that breastfeeding may interfere with their education or employment. This study aimed to explore the breastfeeding experiences of adolescent mothers in Wahno Village, Abepura Subdistrict. A qualitative research design was used, with structured interviews conducted using a questionnaire. The results indicated that the initiation of exclusive breastfeeding among adolescent mothers was generally positive. Participants reported mixed emotional experiences, including feelings of happiness, pride, stress, and discomfort. Family support, particularly from husbands, played an important role in sustaining breastfeeding practices. Most respondents also demonstrated adequate knowledge regarding how to manage breastfeeding-related challenges. Overall, adolescent mothers in Wahno Village showed a reasonable level of understanding and commitment toward exclusive breastfeeding. Continued education and support are recommended to further strengthen breastfeeding practices among adolescent mothers and their families.

Bilingual instruction is a learning strategy that can help students understand learning materials while bridging the gap between the language used at school and the language spoken in daily life. This study aims to analyze the effect of bilingual instruction on students' understanding of the Ecosystem topic at SDK Gusung Karang, Koja Gete Village. The study was motivated by the fact that students predominantly use the Sikka language in their daily communication, making it difficult for them to understand lessons delivered solely in Indonesian. This study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. The research participants consisted of the fourth-grade homeroom teacher and fourth-grade students at SDK Gusung Karang. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation and analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques. The findings indicate that bilingual instruction has a positive impact on students' understanding of the Ecosystem topic. The use of the Sikka language helps students comprehend basic concepts, increases classroom participation, and enhances their confidence during the learning process. Meanwhile, Indonesian strengthens students' mastery of scientific terminology and academic language skills. Although students still experience difficulties in consistently using scientific terms in Indonesian, bilingual instruction improves their understanding and connects learning concepts with their real-life experiences. The effectiveness of this strategy depends on teachers' ability to manage language switching in a structured and consistent manner.

This study examines the effects of participative leadership, organizational culture, and work motivation on employee performance through job satisfaction at the Department of Industry and Trade of East Kutai Regency. A quantitative approach with an explanatory research design was employed. The population comprised 108 civil servants and regional contract employees, all of whom were included as research respondents. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using validity and reliability tests, multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and path analysis. The findings demonstrate that participative leadership, organizational culture, and work motivation have positive and significant effects on job satisfaction. Partially, these three variables also exert positive and significant effects on employee performance. In addition, job satisfaction was found to have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. The results of the path analysis further indicate that job satisfaction mediates the relationship between participative leadership, organizational culture, work motivation, and employee performance. These findings suggest that efforts to improve employee performance in public sector organizations require the strengthening of participative leadership practices, the development of a supportive organizational culture, the enhancement of work motivation, and the sustainable management of job satisfaction. Accordingly, job satisfaction constitutes an important mechanism through which organizational factors contribute to improved employee performance.

Language errors in public spaces are still frequently found in various media, such as signboards, banners, billboards, and posters. This phenomenon not only indicates a deviation from standard Indonesian language rules but also has the potential to influence how people understand and use language. This study aims to describe the forms of language errors in public spaces, analyze them from a critical linguistic perspective, and identify their implications for public literacy. The method used is descriptive qualitative research with a critical linguistic analysis approach. Data in the form of examples of language use in public spaces are analyzed based on aspects of spelling, diction, and sentence structure, then interpreted in relation to the social practices and ideologies that underlie them. The results of the study indicate that the dominant language errors include spelling errors, inappropriate word choice, and the use of ineffective sentence structures. From a critical linguistic perspective, these errors are not only caused by a lack of mastery of language rules but are also influenced by social habits, the reproduction of deviant language practices, and the tendency to use foreign languages ​​to construct a certain image. These findings indicate that repeated exposure to language that does not conform to rules can affect the quality of public literacy. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen critical literacy and increase language awareness so that society is able to use and evaluate language more appropriately and responsibly.

This study examines the Dayak Ngaju Palui oral story as an object of anecdotal text by analyzing its structure, building elements, linguistic rules, and implied meanings. The research focuses on identifying the structure of anecdotal texts in Palui stories, the elements that construct the stories, the linguistic features used, and the meanings implied within them. The study aims to describe these aspects as part of Dayak Ngaju oral literature. A qualitative descriptive method was used to explain the anecdotal texts in depth. The data consisted of six Palui stories: Palui Tulak Namuei, Bapa Palui Tulak Mambuwu, Bapa Palui Tunggu Parei, Bapa Palui Mananjaru Indu Palui, Indu Palui Buhau bara Huma, and Palui Tulak Mamisi. The findings show that all six stories contain complete anecdotal text structures, including abstraction, orientation, crisis, reaction, and coda. The humorous and satirical elements appear mainly in the crisis and reaction sections, distinguishing them from other text structures. The stories are also supported by clear building elements, such as theme, characters, setting, plot, and point of view.
