Abstract

The internet provides tremendous educational benefits for students and also provides better communication, information, and social interaction opportunities for young people, but excessive internet use can lead to negative psychological addiction. This study aims to quantitatively describe the tendency of internet addiction in the population of students majoring in Public Administration from the class of 2020, 2021, and 2022. The total sample taken was 142 people, including all students from the three batches. The data analysis method applied in this research is the crosstab or cross tabulation analysis technique. The data analysis process involved the use of SPSS V.25 statistical software. From the results of the analysis of gender and range of addiction, it can be seen that the majority of respondents, both males (66.7%) and females (69.9%), experience a moderate level of internet addiction, especially social media. The number of respondents who experienced moderate addiction reached 98 out of a total of 142 respondents. In the analysis of respondents' age groups and range of addiction, it can be seen that three age groups dominate, namely 19, 20 and 21 years old. Of the 28 respondents aged 19, 17 of them experienced moderate addiction. In the 20-year-old age group, out of 43 respondents, 33 were classified as moderately addicted. While in the 21-year-old age group, out of 37 respondents, 26 of them also showed a moderate level of addiction. Furthermore, the tendency of internet addiction in college students is dominated by two main aspects: characteristics and excessive use. Students who feel attached to the internet tend to always think about and find it difficult to control their use. Keywords: Tendency; Addiction; Internet; College Students

Abstract

Social media has become a primary tool in influencing voter decisions, especially among young generations, in the 2024 Election. With a creative and interactive approach, platforms such as TikTok dominate in delivering political messages to university students, who are part of the millennial and Gen Z generations. This research employs a quantitative descriptive method using questionnaires on 120 students from HKBP Nommensen University to measure the influence of social media on the decision to vote for presidential and vice-presidential candidates. The hypothesis test results indicate a significant influence of social media on students' voting decisions. 70.9% of respondents consider social media as the main factor influencing their choice, with TikTok being the most influential platform (74.2%). Additionally, entertaining and creative political slogans such as "Ok Gas 02 Tabrak-Tabrak Masuk" influenced 57.5% of respondents. These findings support the hypothesis that social media significantly affects voting decisions. The significance value in the ANOVA test is 0.001 (< 0.05), indicating that the regression model is significant. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Hₐ) is accepted, meaning there is an essential influence between the use of social media and voting decisions, with a contribution of 78.1%. This reinforces the importance of political communication strategies based on social media with engaging and informative content. Indonesia's 2024 election demonstrates how social media, especially TikTok, shapes young voters' preferences by transcending regional boundaries and creating new spaces for political engagement.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan merumuskan strategi pembangunan berkelanjutan Kawasan Geopark Kaldera Toba di Kabupaten Samosir melalui integrasi pemetaan spasial dan indikator Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Penelitian mengidentifikasi karakter ilmiah geosite, keanekaragaman hayati, dan warisan budaya sebagai dasar penyusunan perencanaan pariwisata berbasis konservasi. Metode penelitian bersifat deskriptif dengan survei lapangan. Titik koordinat geosite dikumpulkan menggunakan perangkat GPS Garmin GPSMAP 78s, kemudian diolah dalam perangkat lunak ArcGIS/ArcMap untuk visualisasi distribusi spasial dan pembuatan peta tematik. Informasi tambahan diperoleh melalui observasi langsung dan wawancara singkat dengan pemangku kepentingan lokal, dan perumusan strategi dilakukan melalui analisis SWOT kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan lima geosite utama-Tele-Efrata-Sihotang, Pusuk Buhit, Simanindo-Batu Hoda, Tuktuk-Ambarita-Tomok, dan Huta Tinggi-Sidihoni-yang tersebar mengikuti struktur geologi pengendali Kaldera Toba dan mencerminkan integrasi kuat antara unsur geologi, biologi, dan budaya. Analisis SWOT memperlihatkan kekuatan internal mendominasi (30%) diikuti peluang (25%), sedangkan kelemahan dan ancaman masing-masing sebesar 25% dan 20%. Strategi yang dihasilkan meliputi optimalisasi potensi geosite melalui promosi berbasis SIG, peningkatan kapasitas masyarakat, pengembangan ekowisata edukatif, penguatan lembaga adat, dan perencanaan adaptasi perubahan iklim. Temuan penelitian membuktikan bahwa penggabungan pemetaan SIG dengan analisis SWOT berbasis SDGs merupakan pendekatan praktis untuk merumuskan strategi pengelolaan geopark yang berkelanjutan. Pendekatan ini memberikan kontribusi berarti dengan menghubungkan data spasial, konservasi, dan perencanaan pariwisata berbasis masyarakat serta dapat diterapkan pada geopark lainnya.
