Abstract

Using data from the Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) from 2014–2015, this study seeks to analyze the ethnic differences in the return to education in Indonesia. We discovered that IV models, as opposed to OLS estimation, are more suitable to evaluate returns to education in Indonesia. Additionally, rather than treating the ethnicity variable as an instrumental variable, it is preferable to use it as a grouping variable. After segmenting our samples into six ethnic groups, this study discovered that all ethnic groups, with the exception of the Chinese group, match the IV estimation. The non-Chinese groups with the best returns on schooling are Bataknese and Minangnese. The high return on education in these ethnic groups is attributed to the intense excitement for learning that permeates Bataknese and Minangnese cultures as native cultural assets. Earnings are also influenced favorably by marital status, masculinity, employment in the public sector, and urban-rural location. These findings suggest that ethnic and cultural topics should be covered in the national curriculum as well as local curricula. Since these characteristics have a direct impact on salaries, the government should also pay attention to gender segregation, career opportunities, and urban-rural growth.JEL Classification C26; I26; J15

Abstract

This study seeks to examine the impact of Infrastructure, ICT, and Economic Stability on the economic growth rate in Central Java. The data for this research is procured from authoritative sources, namely the Statistics Indonesia (Indonesian: Badan Pusat Statistik, BPS, lit. 'Central Agency on Statistics') and the National Research and Innovation Agency (Indonesian: Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional, BRIN). To analyze the data, a multiple linear regression method was employed, utilizing cross-sectional data. The findings reveal that, when considered collectively, all the variables significantly influence Central Java's economic growth. On an individual level, infrastructure, ICT, and economic stability each demonstrate a marked positive correlation with economic growth. Drawing from these insights, the study underscores the imperative for devising comprehensive macro-socioeconomic policies. Such strategic interventions are crucial to ensure that Central Java's economic growth remains both robust and sustainable over time.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan melihat bagaimana pengaruh Indeks Pembangun Manusia (IPM), Pertumbuhan Ekonomi Perkapita dan Persentase Penduduk Miskin terhadap Indeks Pembangunan Kebudayaan (IPK). Data bersumber dari Kementerian Pendidikan, Kebudayaan, Riset dan Teknologi serta Badan Pusat Statistik periode 2018-2020. Adapun metode statistik yang digunakan yaitu regresi dengan data panel. Model fixed efek diperoleh sebagai model terbaik berdasarkan pengujian model panel (Chow, LM BP, dan Hausman). Namum, masih terdapat pelanggaran terhadap asumsi klasik heterokedastis dan autokorelasi sehingga model ditranformasi dengan Panel Correction Standar Error. Hasil yang diperoleh bahwa seluruh variabel independen berpengaruh bersama-sama secara signifikan terhadap Indeks Pembangunan Kebudayaan. Secara parsial variabel Indeks Pembangun Manusia dan Pertumbuhan Ekonomi Perkapita berpengaruh signifikan positif terhadap Indeks Pembangunan Kebudayaan. Sedangkan, Persentase Penduduk Miskin belum berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Indeks Pembangunan Kebudayaan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, diperlukan kebijakan komprehensif terkait ekonomi makro-sosial agar tingkat pembangunan kebudayaan Indonesia terus berkembang.

Abstract

This study examines the reciprocal relationships between the Knowledge Index (KI), the Community Literacy Development Index (CLDI), and the Level of Reading Interest (LRI) across 27 districts/cities in West Java (2024). Using a quantitative design with Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling and a conditional process perspective, we test direct and feedback effects among the three constructs. Descriptive statistics indicate substantial variation in literacy development and reading interest across regions. Model fit indices exceed conventional thresholds, supporting the adequacy of the specified structure. The results show that KI has a significant positive effect on both CLDI and LRI, indicating that accumulated schooling and knowledge capital translate into stronger literacy ecosystems and more active reading behaviors. Conversely, both CLDI and LRI exert significant positive effects on KI, evidencing a reinforcing cycle in which richer literacy environments and higher reading engagement further elevate knowledge attainment. These findings highlight a virtuous, bidirectional dynamic: knowledge deepens literacy and reading, while literacy investment and reading practice amplify knowledge. Policy implications include prioritizing integrated literacy programs across the life course, leveraging digital access, and coordinating libraries, schools, and local governments to simultaneously lift ecosystem quality and individual reading practices. The study provides actionable evidence for place-based literacy policy and human capital formation in emerging regions.
