Abstract

Teachers play a pivotal role in educational implementation, functioning not only as administrative executors but also as strategic agents in enhancing educational quality through professional competence and moral integrity. In Islamic educational institutions, teacher performance is particularly crucial, as it reflects the integration of pedagogical expertise and ethical values. However, prior studies generally examine compensation and work ethic separately or focus mainly on public schools, creating a gap in understanding their combined effect within Islamic secondary education. This study investigates the influence of compensation and work ethic on teacher performance at MAN 2 Mojokerto. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from all 62 teachers through a census-based survey. Instrument validity and reliability were confirmed, and multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS version 22. The findings reveal that compensation and work ethic simultaneously exert a positive and significant effect on teacher performance (F = 71.561 > F-table = 3.15). Partially, compensation shows a more dominant influence (β = 0.736) than work ethic (β = 0.214). These results provide empirical evidence of the relative contribution of financial and ethical factors in shaping teacher performance within Islamic educational settings. The study underscores the importance of implementing equitable, performance-based compensation systems alongside strengthening work ethic to achieve sustainable improvements in educational quality.

Abstract

Financial well-being is a concern for platform-based ride-hailing drivers facing income uncertainty. Evidence remains limited on the behavioural pathways connecting financial literacy and financial self-efficacy with financial well-being in this occupational context. This study examines whether financial behaviour mediates these associations among drivers in Malang City, Indonesia. Grounded primarily in Social Cognitive Theory and informed by selected Theory of Planned Behaviour concepts concerning perceived capability, the study used a cross-sectional survey of 150 drivers recruited through purposive sampling. Data were analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). Financial literacy and financial self-efficacy were positively associated with financial behaviour and financial well-being. Financial behaviour showed positive indirect associations linking both antecedents to financial well-being, while their direct associations remained significant, indicating complementary partial mediation. These findings provide context-specific evidence that financial behaviour represents one pathway connecting cognitive and psychological resources with financial well-being. They suggest that financial capability programmes for drivers could combine financial education with support for financial management practices and self-efficacy development.
