Abstract

Coastal Batik is a traditional artistic expression that thrives in the coastal areas of Indonesia, known for its beauty and resilience of character. The aims of this research are: (1) to examine and describe the special characteristics of Pesisir Batik work produced by batik-making families in Lasem and Tuban; (2) to analyze how various social, economic, and cultural aspects influence the practice of batik in families in Lasem and Tuban; and (3) to investigate the model or pattern of inheritance of batik skills and the Coastal Batik tradition in batik-making families in Lasem and Tuban. This research uses qualitative approach  with a multiple case study research design and an art anthropology approach. Research data were collected using three techniques: observation, interviews, and documentation studies. Data analysis employs interactive analysis according to Milles & Huberman's view, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. Based on the results of this research, in the family realm, the inheritance process can be achieved through three methods: (1) conditioning, (2) imitation or modeling, and (3) internalization or learning to cope. This research reveals the complexity of the inheritance of cultural traditions. Cultural, social, and economic factors play a significant role in shaping batik practices in both regions. It also highlights how batik-making families strive to maintain their traditional heritage while adapting to changing times. The implications of this research extend to a deeper understanding of cultural preservation efforts in an ever-changing context, providing valuable insights for cultural preservation in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of gamification features in UI design on UX and user retention in mobile applications. This experimental research compares two user groups (with and without gamification) using questionnaires that assess UX and user retention, with purposive sampling, and data analysis using descriptive techniques, normality tests, and difference tests. The findings reveal that gamification in mobile app UIs significantly enhances UX and user retention. Key gamification features, such as challenges, achievements, leaderboards, interactive feedback, and social integration, positively impact usability, motivation, satisfaction, and user recommendations. Users in the gamified group reported higher ease of use, engagement, and satisfaction, leading to longer retention periods. This study reveals significant findings that integrating gamification elements into application design can enhance user satisfaction and loyalty, as well as encourage further research in the context of mobile application gamification.
