Abstract

Background. Narrative communication offers promising alternatives, yet systematic understanding of how digital storytelling specifically promotes sustained pro-environmental behaviors remains underdeveloped. Purpose. This study investigated whether participatory creation of digital environmental narratives leads to stronger and more sustained pro-environmental behavior change compared to passive narrative consumption or information-based education, while also examining the mediating roles of psychological mechanisms such as narrative transportation and environmental self-efficacy Method. Mixed-methods experimental design randomly assigned 228 undergraduate students to participatory creation, passive consumption, or information-based control conditions, measuring pro-environmental behaviors, attitudes, self-efficacy, and psychological distance across baseline, immediate post-intervention, 3-month, and 6-month follow-ups. Results. Participatory creation produced significantly greater behavior change (33% increase maintained at 6-month follow-up) compared to passive consumption (12% increase) and control (0% increase). Environmental self-efficacy mediated 61% of participatory creation effects while narrative transportation mediated 73% of passive consumption effects. Conclusion. This research demonstrates that creating digital environmental narratives produces superior behavior change compared to consuming narratives through distinct psychological mechanisms emphasizing capability-building over persuasion.

Abstract

Background. The emergence of autonomous vehicles (AVs) presents a transformative challenge to traditional legal systems that were constructed around human-driven transportation. In Indonesia, where the regulatory framework for vehicle liability remains rooted in fault-based principles, the advent of driverless technology demands a fundamental rethinking of accountability, risk distribution, and consumer protection. Purpose. This study aims to examine the legal implications of AV accidents and propose a model for liability allocation that aligns with Indonesia’s socio-legal context and evolving technological landscape.   Method. Using a qualitative normative legal research method, the study analyzes statutory frameworks, comparative legal systems, and case precedents from jurisdictions that have begun regulating autonomous mobility. Results. The findings indicate that existing Indonesian traffic and consumer laws inadequately address the complexities of autonomous decision-making and manufacturer responsibility. A hybrid liability framework combining strict product liability with adaptive insurance mechanisms is proposed to balance technological innovation with public safety. Conclusion. The research concludes that establishing comprehensive legislation on AV accountability is essential for fostering legal certainty, ethical responsibility, and technological trust. These legal norms must evolve in tandem with technological progress to ensure justice in a driverless future.

Abstract

Water-quality deterioration requires timely and reliable monitoring, yet conventional laboratory-based approaches often face limitations in cost, sampling frequency, spatial coverage, and response time, particularly in resource-constrained environments. This study aimed to design, calibrate, and validate a low-cost Internet of Things sensor instrumentation system for continuous real-time water-quality monitoring. An experimental engineering design integrated multi-parameter sensing, embedded processing, wireless communication, laboratory calibration, reference-based comparison, field validation, data-transmission assessment, and threshold-based alert evaluation. The results demonstrated strong calibration performance across monitored parameters, although field accuracy varied according to sensor type and environmental conditions. Temperature and pH exhibited comparatively stable performance, whereas turbidity and dissolved oxygen showed greater field-related measurement variability. The system maintained high data completeness and communication reliability while successfully capturing short-duration water-quality changes that periodic sampling could potentially miss. Field validation confirmed that strong laboratory calibration alone did not guarantee equivalent performance under natural environmental conditions. The study concludes that low-cost IoT instrumentation provides a promising fit-for-purpose platform for continuous surveillance, temporal pattern detection, and early warning when supported by rigorous calibration and field validation. The proposed end-to-end framework strengthens the development of scalable, reliable, and context-sensitive water-quality monitoring systems for environmental management.

Abstract

In the digital age, socialization processes and identity formation have become increasingly intertwined with digital platforms and technologies. The digital environment presents new opportunities and challenges in the development of self-concept and social interactions, which have significant implications for various developmental stages. However, there is limited research exploring how digital spaces influence identity formation, especially from a developmental perspective. This study aims to investigate how digital socialization processes impact identity formation across different age groups and developmental stages, focusing on the interaction between online and offline environments. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with individuals from diverse age groups. The survey explored the frequency and nature of digital interactions, while the interviews provided in-depth insights into personal experiences with identity formation in digital spaces. The findings reveal that digital platforms significantly influence self-concept and identity development, with younger individuals more likely to engage in self-exploration through digital spaces. However, the impact varies across developmental stages, with older adults demonstrating more caution in identity expression online. Digital socialization plays a critical role in identity formation, particularly in adolescence and early adulthood. Future research should focus on how digital interactions shape identity development over time and across different cultural contexts.

Abstract

Creative writing is a fundamental component of language education because it develops creativity, communication skills, critical thinking, and expressive competence. However, Indonesian language classrooms still face challenges in fostering creative writing due to teacher-centered instruction, limited collaboration, and insufficient opportunities for students to generate, refine, and communicate original ideas. This study examined the effectiveness of collaborative writing in improving students’ creative writing skills and explored the mechanisms through which collaborative learning enhances writing performance. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design involved 320 secondary school students in a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group study. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent-samples t-tests, repeated-measures analysis of variance, structural equation modeling, mediation, and moderation analyses. Qualitative data were obtained through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, reflective journals, and document analysis. The findings showed that collaborative writing significantly improved idea originality, narrative organization, vocabulary richness, grammatical accuracy, writing motivation, classroom engagement, and overall creative writing achievement compared with conventional instruction. Peer-feedback quality and metacognitive regulation partially mediated the relationship between collaborative writing participation and writing performance, while classroom engagement strengthened these effects. Collaborative writing therefore offers an effective pedagogical framework for enhancing creative expression, language proficiency, reflective learning, and sustainable literacy development in Indonesian language classrooms.
