Abstract

Background, Advances in digital technology have given rise to various forms of digital crime. One such crime is the case of cross-border online fraud in Asia, which has been made into a movie titled “No More Bets.”. Aim, This study was conducted to examine gender representation in films and the semiotic signs that shape gender meaning in narratives of digital crime. Methods, This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data validity is tested through triangulation of methods. Results, The results of the study show that gender representation in films still reproduces gender power relations, as it continues to place women in a position that is unequal to men, with male characters being portrayed as dominant and female characters as vulnerable. Signs form gender meaning based on John Fiske's semiotics, at the level of reality, the level of representation, and the level of ideology. These three levels are interrelated in shaping the meaning of male and female roles in the digital crime system. This shows that gender meaning does not appear suddenly, but is constructed through visual signs, narratives, and ideologies present in films. Conclusions, Thus, the film “No More Bets” tends to reproduce the representation of men as the dominant party in the narrative of digital crime. Implication, This study confirms that a semiotic approach to examining gender representation on digital platforms is relevant and that gender sensitivity is necessary in the film industry to prevent the reproduction of gender stereotypes.

Abstract

Background. Advances in communication technology have propelled social media into a primary space for information exchange and the formation of digital relationships. In this context, influencers play a strategic role in fostering interactions with their audience through communication patterns on Instagram. This study stems from the scarcity of research that specifically examines the communication styles of micro-influencers, particularly in their efforts to create sustainable interactions with followers. Aims. This study aims to examine communication styles and interaction forms, and to identify the most prominent communication style on the Instagram account @thifalislami. Methods. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, non-participant observation, and documentation. Informants were selected through purposive sampling, involving the influencer as the primary informant and several followers as supporting informants. Data analysis was conducted using an interactive model encompassing data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. Result. The results of the study indicate that influencers employ communication styles that are friendly, open, relaxed, expressive, and animated, with the “open” style being the most dominant. Conclusion. Interactions are built through posted content, captions, comment sections, and the “Story” feature, which helps foster authentic and sustained relationships with followers.

Abstract

Background. This research is motivated by the urgency of emotional intelligence as a basis for open communication within the family, especially in coastal communities in Karangampel Village, Indramayu Regency, which tend to adhere to traditional parenting patterns. Aims. This study aimed to identify how the dimensions of parental emotional intelligence (self-awareness, empathy, social skills) affect the child's willingness to communicate openly. Methods. The study used a qualitative case study design, involving three family units (parents and adolescents aged 14–18 years) selected through purposive sampling. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation, and the data were analyzed using the interactive analysis model of Miles, Huberman, & Saldaña. Result. The results of the study show that parental self-awareness is manifested in taking post-conflict pauses, but without explicit communication, children interpret it as avoidance; empathy through past reflection helps parents understand the child's behavior as a normal part of development; As well as social skills in the form of physical touch and soft tone encourage children's courage to open up. Conclusion. This study concludes that parents' emotional intelligence plays an important role in opening communication, with practical implications for strengthening PUSPAGA services in coastal areas.
