Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) learning model in improving accounting learning outcomes for Vocational High School (SMK) students. This study was conducted using a qualitative descriptive method based on literature study. Data were obtained through a comprehensive analysis of various relevant scientific articles regarding the application of PjBL in accounting learning in SMK. The literature review shows that PjBL consistently provides a significant positive effect on improving student learning outcomes, both in cognitive and psychomotor aspects. This model encourages active student participation through contextual, collaborative, and problem-solving-based project work. Various studies have reported an increase in student average grades and classical learning completion rates after the implementation of PjBL. In addition, important skills such as critical thinking, communication, and teamwork skills also increase. The implementation of PjBL is an effective innovative learning strategy to improve the quality of vocational education, especially in the field of accounting, because it is able to improve learning outcomes and develop various student skills.

Abstract

The phenomenon of consumerism has spread in society, including among teenagers who tend to show consumptive behavior due to a preference for novelty and the process of finding self-identity. Therefore, students as a group of highly educated teenagers need to develop self-control skills in consuming to avoid uncontrolled consumptive behavior. The purpose of this study is to analyze consumptive behaviors including financial literacy, social environment, self-control and buying interest. The data collection technique used questionnaires, while the data analysis technique used percentage descriptive analysis, inferential statistics, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results of the study show that financial literacy, social environment, and self-control have a positive effect on consumptive behavior. And the buying interest variable has been proven to play a mediator role in consumptive behavior. The advice given is for students to learn to increase awareness in responding to discounts, understand the financial landscape, pay attention to consumer reviews and testimonials, develop self-control, and foster rational buying interest. This study also advises future researchers to develop broader research statements and variables to strengthen the relevance of the research results and theories used.

Abstract

This study investigates the determinants of purchasing decisions among teenage Korean-pop fans in Semarang City, highlighting the role of consumer behavior as a mediating variable. Understanding this phenomenon is increasingly important as the rapid growth of fan-based consumption has become a significant driver of youth spending patterns and a relevant topic in contemporary consumer behavior research. The variables examined include electronic word of mouth, celebrity worship, and pay later features. A quantitative approach was employed with 100 respondents selected through consecutive sampling to capture active consumers within a specific time frame. Data were collected using validated and reliable questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression and the Sobel test, methods deemed appropriate for identifying both direct and mediating effects. The findings show that electronic word of mouth, celebrity worship, and pay later features positively and significantly influence purchasing decisions, with consumer behavior serving as an effective mediating factor. Practically, the findings guide marketers in targeting youth through digital and financial features, while scientifically they advance a mediation model that integrates psychological and financial determinants of fan-based purchasing behavior.

Abstract

Consumptive behavior refers to the tendency of individuals or groups to purchase goods and services excessively for purposes beyond basic needs, often to express identity or achieve personal satisfaction. This study aims to analyze the influence of peers, social media, self-control, and financial literacy on the consumptive behavior of Economic Education students at Universitas Negeri Semarang with lifestyle as a mediating variable. Using a quantitative approach, the research involved 195 students selected from a population of 381. Data were collected through a validated and reliable questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, path analysis, and the Sobel test. The findings show that lifestyle significantly mediates the effects of peers, social media, self-control, and financial literacy on consumptive behavior. The results imply that students should be more selective in responding to peer influence, social media exposure, and advertising stimuli, while also developing stronger self-control and financial literacy through workshops, seminars, or training programs. Strengthening these aspects can help students make more rational financial decisions and reduce tendencies toward consumptive behavior.
