Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of whistleblowing system implementation and human resource competence on fraud prevention efforts at the Inspectorate Office of Polewali Mandar Regency. In this context, Human Resource (HR) competence is viewed as a primary pillar in establishing accountable and transparent financial governance. Using a quantitative research design, primary data were collected through questionnaires from the entire population of 37 auditors at the research site; therefore, a total sampling (saturation sampling) technique was employed. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to test the significance of the variables' effects both individually (partially) and collectively (simultaneously). This study examines how individual capacity—encompassing knowledge, skills, and professional behavior—can strengthen internal oversight systems to minimize fraudulent practices. The findings confirm that, partially, the implementation of the whistleblowing system provides a positive and significant contribution to mitigating fraud risks. Similarly, human resource competence is proven to have a positive and significant effect on fraud prevention efforts. When tested simultaneously, both variables have a significant impact on preventing fraud. These results imply the necessity of optimizing reporting systems and strengthening HR capacity through continuous competency development as a core organizational

Abstract

The development of financial services through digital platforms (Fintech) has triggered a shift in public perception of digital credit. The use of the buy now pay later (BNPL) system, which is not accompanied by adequate financial literacy, is the background of this study. The focus of the study is to evaluate the impact of digital financial literacy, financial attitudes, and accounting literacy on the financial behavior of Shopee PayLater users in Semarang Regency. A quantitative approach was used in this study, with data obtained from distributing questionnaires to 53 Generation Z and millennial respondents through a purposive sampling technique. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results revealed that digital financial literacy and accounting understanding contribute significantly to financial behavior. Conversely, financial attitudes do not have a significant partial effect on financial behavior. Simultaneously, digital financial literacy, financial attitudes, and accounting literacy have a significant effect on financial behavior, with an Adjusted R² value of 0.456. These results indicate that the ability to understand digital finance and accounting insight is crucial in creating smarter and more organized financial behavior when using digital credit services. This research contributes to the development of financial behavior literature and education for PayLater users in managing financial responsibility more optimally.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the TikTok content marketing strategy used by Tanasol, a local women's sandal brand from Bali, and to identify factors driving consumer impulsive buying behavior. The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach using a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with three cross-generational consumers, the business owner, and Tanasol's marketing team, supplemented by non-participatory observation of TikTok content and digital documentation. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman interactive model. Results indicate that content strategies based on visual realism, simple storytelling, thematic promotions, and TikTok Shop integration effectively drive impulsive purchases. Key drivers of impulsive buying include honest and realistic product visuals, ease of TikTok Shop features, affordable pricing, high trust levels, and situational-emotional factors. These findings are analyzed through Ajzen's (1991) Theory of Planned Behavior framework, demonstrating synergy between positive consumer attitudes, subjective norms from social proof, and high perceived behavioral control. This study affirms that local SME brands can compete effectively in TikTok's digital ecosystem through organic approaches based on emotional proximity and content authenticity, without relying on major influencers.

Abstract

The goal of this study is to look into how work motivation, the work environment, and training affect how well employees do their jobs at PT Medcomm Solution. In service organizations, human resources are regarded as a strategic element affecting performance, with other internal organizational factors contributing. This study utilized a quantitative methodology with a causal associative research design. The sample encompassed all 66 employees, employing a census sampling methodology. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings suggest that job motivation and training positively and significantly influence employee performance, however the work environment does not. These three independent factors have a substantial effect on employee performance at the same time, as shown by the F-value of 20.085 and the significance level of 0.000 (<0.05). The coefficient of determination value of 51.8% shows that the variables of work motivation, work environment, and training can explain differences in employee performance. The other 48.2% is due to factors not included in this research model, such as rewards, pay, work discipline, organizational culture, job satisfaction, work stress, and individual employee characteristics.

The phenomenon that occurs in various companies shows that there are still many employees who experience decreased work enthusiasm, low productivity, and lack of satisfaction with the work environment. This study aims to further analyze the influence of leadership style, work motivation, and work environment on employee performance. The study used a quantitative method carried out at PT Jasindo Testing Service with a sampling method using the slovin technique with an error rate of 5%, resulting in 110 respondents from a total population of 151 people. Based on the results of the study that has been conducted, it can be concluded that Leadership Style (X1), Motivation (X2), and Work Environment (X3) have a significant influence on Employee Performance (Y) at PT Jasindo Testing & Inspection Services. This is evidenced by the significance value of 0.000 <0.05, and the Fcount value (244.975) > Ftable (2.69), which shows that the three independent variables simultaneously affect the dependent variable. In addition, the R-square value of 0.874 indicates that 87.4% of the variation in employee performance can be explained by leadership style, motivation, and work environment, while 12.6% is influenced by other factors not examined in this study. Thus, the better the leadership style, motivation, and work environment, the higher the employee performance.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of learning satisfaction and learning environment on the academic achievement of students at Perdana 1 Vocational High School Surabaya. The background of this study is the growing importance of non-cognitive factors in shaping student performance. A quantitative survey was conducted with 90 participants, and the data were examined using validity and reliability assessments, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination. All instruments were found to be valid and reliable, with Cronbach’s Alpha values exceeding 0.70. The classical assumption tests indicated that the data were normally distributed, free from multicollinearity, and did not exhibit heteroscedasticity. Regression analysis revealed that both independent variabel have a positive significant effect on academic achievement, with the learning environment identified as the most dominant influencing factor. The simultaneous test confirmed a significant combined effect of both variables on academic achievement with a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R² = 0.668) indicates that 66.8% of the variation in academic achievement can be explained by learning satisfaction and learning environment. These findings suggest that improving learning satisfaction and creating a conducive learning environment are key strategies to enhance student academic achievement.
