Ghost stories are part of the culture that plays a role in shaping adolescents' understanding and perception of the immaterial world. However, culture and the role of digital media can also influence adolescents' understanding and perception. This study aims to determine the perception of ghosts in adolescents and understand the subjective experiences of late adolescents (aged 17–19 years) in forming these perceptions. This study employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method with Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis data analysis. Subjects were selected purposively. The data collection process involved in-depth interviews. The results of the study show that adolescents' perceptions of ghosts are complex and influenced by several factors, namely culture, social media, religion, social narratives, and individual experiences. These results indicate that understanding the dynamics of the formation of adolescents' perceptions of metaphysical phenomena in the digital era is very important. This has an impact on developmental and educational psychology, especially in helping adolescents understand and manage their emotions, imagination, and the way they think about supernatural stories.

The low level of visits to museums compared to other tourist destinations is largely due to the lack of interactive activities and the need for direct guidance in accessing collection information. Although an e-museum platform based on virtual reality technology has been available through museumindonesia.org as a solution to physical limitations and an effort to attract the interest of the younger generation, the extent to which the public accepts this innovation is still unknown. The lack of understanding of the perception of ease and usefulness in using services is an important reason to conduct an evaluation using the TAM approach. This study aims to identify and analyze factors that influence the intention and behavior of using e-museum services, in order to provide a strategic foundation for the development of web-based museum service management. The total respondents used in this study were 120 people. The analysis method used was the Path Analysis method. The results showed that most of the constructs in the model had a significant relationship. Facilitating Conditions were proven to have an influence on Perceived Ease of Use and Perceived Usefulness. Furthermore, Perceived Ease of Use contributes to forming Perceived Usefulness and attitudes towards use (Attitude Toward Using). Among all variables, Perceived Usefulness has the strongest influence on Behavioral Intention, with the highest coefficient value of 0.72. In addition, attitudes toward use also play a role in forming behavioral intentions, which in turn affect actual usage behavior. The results of the analysis show that perceptions of ease of use are a key element in forming perceptions of system usefulness. Overall, the five main variables of Facilitating Condition, Perceived Ease of Use, Perceived Usefulness, Attitude Toward Using, and Behavioral Intention have a significant contribution to the acceptance of e-Museum technology.

Culture and social life are one particle that becomes a binding unity, culture faithfully escorts the development of human civilization from pre-Islamic times to the perfect Islamic era as a teaching from ancient Greece to modern times like today. From this long process, culture basically has values that can traditionally be passed on to the next generations. Indonesia is a country that has a lot of culture, which consists of a collection of cultures that exist throughout the Indonesian homeland in the form of local culture. Foreign cultures continue to enter unstoppably into Indonesia which can erode or dilute the local culture owned by the Indonesian people. This problem lies in the need for the government's role in protecting Indonesian culture in the era of globalisation, such as in preserving local culture, the government must facilitate all forms of artistic activities held by the community, besides that the government also has a role to provide support in activities related to culture and open as much as possible the participation of young people or adolescents in maintaining its preservation. The research method used is descriptive method, the foundation of the research method is the philosophy of postpositivism. It aims to be able to determine whether the social and cultural life movement will succeed in having a broad impact and provide changes in living standards as expected.

Folklore as a literary work reflects the lives of people, including the origins of a particular place. This research aims to: (1) describe the folklore of the origin of Dukuh Tambak in Sragen, (2) describe the folklore of the origin of Pasar Tambak in Sragen, and (3) identify the value of local wisdom in the two stories. The method used is qualitative with a literary anthropology approach, using purposive sampling technique to select two interrelated stories. Data validity was tested by source triangulation and data analysis using a flow model analysis. The results show that the origin stories of Dukuh Tambak and Pasar Tambak describe the historical journey of the spread of Islam around the Bengawan Solo River, with Joko Tingkir and Kanjeng Raden Tumenggung Tambak Yudho as the main characters in Dukuh Tambak. Meanwhile, Pasar Tambak, spearheaded by Prince Giri Noto, continues the tradition of generosity and honesty in social interaction. From both stories, local wisdom values were found: (1) religiosity value, (2) social value, (3) leadership and responsibility value, (4) hard work value, (5) honesty value, and (6) cultural value.

. ChatGPT is one of the growing innovations in artificial intelligence (AI) technology in the field of education, aiming to assist humans in finding information and completing work efficiently. However, students' lack of understanding of the positive uses and benefits of ChatGPT as a self-learning medium results in low adoption rates and underutilized learning potential. Therefore, this study aims to understand the level of acceptance and the impact that influences students in adopting ChatGPT technology so that it can provide direction and recommendations for schools to increase their self-learning awareness through the utilization of AI. The study used a quantitative approach and interviews with public high school students with the construction of the UTAUT 2 model as a framework. The population of public high school students was 3,405, probability sampling was used as the sampling method then the data was processed using SEM analysis using SmartPLS 3.2.9 software.

The development of AI is having a significant impact on education. AI applications are designed to improve student understanding, but their implementation faces challenges that affect user acceptance. Initial research with the UTAUT2 model in public high schools showed that only hedonic motivation, habit, facilitating conditions, and behavioral intention had a significant influence on application acceptance and use. Therefore, this study will use a simplification model that focuses on significant variables, namely hedonic motivation (HM) and habit (H) on behavioral intention (BI), as well as facilitating conditions (FC), habit (H), and behavioral intention (BI) on use behavior (UB). This study is expected to provide in-depth insight into the important factors that influence the acceptance and use of AI applications in learning, as well as provide practical contributions to improve the implementation of learning technology in high schools.

With the rapid development of technology, its use has expanded to all sectors, including education. Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays an important role in providing innovative solutions, mimicking human intelligence, and potentially replacing human roles in several functions. In education, AI has proven to enhance learning motivation and active student participation. YouChat, an AI chatbot based on GPT-3.5, is used as a learning assistant offering features such as answering questions and providing idea suggestions. Observations and literature studies show that this application has great potential to improve students' learning experiences. This thesis aims to evaluate the acceptance of the YouChat application on students' learning experiences in public higher education institutions in Surabaya using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Data were collected from 399 students and processed using the SEM-PLS technique with SmartPLS 3.2.9 software, including outer model, inner model, and hypothesis testing. The thesis results show that perceived enjoyment and perceived informativeness significantly affect attitude, which in turn affects the intention to use. The variable trust also moderates the effect of perceived informativeness on attitude. This thesis provides insights into students' acceptance of the YouChat application in their learning process as an evaluation for improvement, development, and enhancement for both YouChat and educational institutions.
