Abstract

Forecasting is a common thing to capture events in future based on previous information. However, some classical time-series methods, including moving average (MA), autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA), and simple exponential smoothing (SES), have limitations in predicting nonlinear time-series data. Therefore, this paper aims to utilize the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) model, a combination of the fuzzy inference system (FIS) and neural network architecture to forecast a nonlinear rainfall problem. This model can capture the non-linear data, adaptation capability, and speedy learning capacity. We used the data consisting of temperature (ºC), humidity (%), and wind speed (km/hour) as input variables and rainfall (millimeter) as an output variable at two stations and one rain post in Aceh Besar District, from January 2009 to December 2019. The results demonstrated that ANFIS with generalized Bell (gBell) membership function on epoch 10 can successfully conduct rainfall forecasting in Aceh Besar District with the best-predicted value. The mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of the prediction at the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (MCGA) Station or Badan Meteorologi, Klimatologi dan Geofisika (BMKG) Indrapuri is 6.73% for 80% of the training dataset and 20% of the testing dataset.

Abstract

This article explores the transmission of identity politics within families and its impact on the attitudes and political choices of first-time voters in Aceh. The significance of this study is emphasized by the electoral periods in Aceh and Indonesia, which are frequently influenced by strong identity politics. The study addresses two main questions: How does family identity influence the political understanding of first-time voters, and how does the transmission of political identity occur within families? Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research collected data through interviews with first-time voters from UIN Ar-Raniry and Universitas Malikussaleh. Findings reveal that in the context of Aceh, political identity, entrenched within family dynamics through political affiliations, religious values, and personal experiences, significantly shapes the political perspectives of first-time voters. Predominantly, the paternal figure acts as the primary agent of socialization, disseminating political orientations through family discussions and daily interactions, often without allowing for critical evaluation. This research confirms that families not only serve as institutions influencing and transmitting political views to first-time voters in Aceh but also restrict their ability to conduct independent political assessments due to the reinforcement of traditional and religious values in this transmission.

Abstract

The Data Pokok Pendidikan (DAPODIK) system serves as the primary foundation for educational data management and policy decision-making in Indonesia. However, persistent institutional challenges continue to affect the accuracy and reliability of the data. This research aims to identify and analyze the institutional obstacles that hinder the effective implementation of DAPODIK. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the study explores three key dimensions: infrastructure, institutional structure, and human resources. The findings reveal that (1) inadequate internet connectivity and unstable electricity disrupt data entry and synchronization; (2) weak policy integration, limited budgets, and inconsistent leadership commitment impede effective data governance; and (3) insufficient training for school operators reduces technical competence, thereby compromising data validity. These findings highlight the need for a comprehensive reform strategy that strengthens digital infrastructure, enhances institutional governance, and develops human resource capacity to ensure reliable education data management.

Abstract

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), remain significant public health challenges in Indonesia. Despite advances in clinical management, patients lived experiences, particularly regarding disease-related knowledge and self-care practices, have received limited scholarly attention. Methods: A qualitative phenomenological approach was employed using focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with 19 participants, including 12 patients with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and COPD; five primary health workers from community health center; and two district health office staff. The research was conducted between February and June 2024. Data were analyzed using descriptive phenomenological methods. Results: Three interrelated themes emerged. First, participants described delayed symptom recognition accompanied by limited initial understanding of their disease. Second, deeply entrenched lifestyle-related risk factors, including smoking, high salt and sugar intake, and physical inactivity. Third, inconsistent self-management practices following diagnosis. Although some participants attempted to adhere to medical advice and adopt healthier behaviors, these efforts were frequently constrained by inadequate health literacy, low motivation, and barriers to healthcare access. Persistent misconceptions regarding disease etiology were evident, reflected in culturally embedded terms such as “sweet urine” for diabetes and “lung pain” for COPD. Family support and religious beliefs were found to exert a dual influence, functioning as both facilitators and barriers to treatment adherence. Conclusion: Improving chronic disease outcomes in Indonesia requires the integration of culturally responsive health education, patient-centered communication, continuous follow-up, and health literacy interventions that are aligned with the sociocultural context of affected communities.

Abstract

Knowledge management (KM) is increasingly important for Indonesian universities, which face rapid technological change and heightened demands for transparency, quality, and competitiveness. This study developed and validated a measurement instrument to identify key barriers and enablers of KM implementation in Indonesian higher education. A 22-item scale was developed for the local context and organized into six aspects: trust in individuals, trust in management, reward system, organizational process, IT, and technical support. The scale was produced in two versions: one for lecturers/education staff and one for students. Content validity was evaluated using the Content Validity Ratio (CVR) and the Content Validity Index (CVI) with expert panels (eight raters), followed by a pilot administration to 60 respondents (30 lecturers/staff and 30 students). The scale demonstrated strong content validity (mean I-CVI 0.87–0.91), acceptable item discrimination (lecturer/staff: 0.471–0.834; student: 0.250–0.785), and high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha: 0.952 for lecturer/staff; 0.923 for students). These results indicate that the instrument is robust for diagnosing KM enablers and barriers in Indonesian universities and can support targeted policies and interventions. Future studies should expand validation across diverse institutions nationwide.
