Abstract

This study analyzes an episode of the "Close the Door" podcast by Deddy Corbuzier, featuring comedian Komeng, with a focus on Grice's cooperative principle and Attardo's humor theory. The research aims to identify instances where conversational maxims—quantity, quality, relevance, and manner—are flouted to create humor. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study examines transcribed segments of the podcast episode. The findings reveal that the maxim of relevance was the most frequently flouted, appearing in 44.4% of cases, followed by the maxim of quantity at 33.3%. The maxims of quality and manner were each flouted in 11.1% of instances. These floutings often served to introduce humor through unexpected or exaggerated responses, engaging the audience and enhancing the podcast's entertainment value. This analysis contributes to the understanding of how conversational norms are strategically flouted in comedic contexts to generate humor. Further research is suggested to explore these aspects across different cultural and media settings, potentially incorporating quantitative methods to broaden the scope of analysis. This study provides insights into the linguistic strategies employed in digital media to engage audiences, highlighting the role of humor in communication.

Abstract

This ethnographic study examines how the cultural backgrounds influence stress management among Sundanese, Chinese, and Javanese officers in the Directorate General of X. Through a qualitative ethnographic approach, data were gathered via in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis to uncover the unique stress management methods employed by each cultural group. The findings demonstrate that Sundanese officers focus on work-life balance and rely on supportive social networks, guided by the values of "Silih Asah, Silih Asih, Silih Asuh," which emphasize care, support, and self-improvement. Chinese officers prioritize discipline, hard work, and harmony, using structured task management and involving senior colleagues in decision-making, influenced by Confucian, Taoist, and Buddhist beliefs. Javanese officers rely on spirituality and empathy, following "Tepa Selira" principles, which promote understanding and respect in relationships, and include prayer and parental guidance in stress coping strategies. Despite these distinct methods, all three cultural groups emphasize the importance of support systems, in the workplace. This study suggests that understanding these cultural approaches can help organizations design culturally sensitive support systems to enhance employee well-being and performance. Future research could expand these findings by including more participants and diverse work settings to better understand culturally influenced stress management across Indonesia.

Coastal areas have their own characteristics because they have distinctive potential as marine tourism that holds the potential for the development of productive businesses in coastal areas. This potential needs to be balanced with the ability to manage the potential of marine resources. However, the problems experienced by them such as inequality of remittance management practices and social problems. This study aims to determine the implementation of the development of migrant workers and their families in coastal areas from the bottom through theBuilding Indonesian Workforce Families program or BK-TKI program, this is a strengthening of migrant workers families so that they can reduce difficulties in managing remittances, avoid vulnerable conditions because migrant workers' families are left behind to work, and the possibility of migrant workers returning to work abroad for the next period so that migrant workers and their families are declared out of the poverty chain after implementing the program. This research is qualitative research with a case study approach and analyzed with Robert K. Merton's structural functionalism theory. Data on the conditions of implementation of the BK-TKI program in coastal communities were obtained for 3 months. The results show that the implementation of the BK-TKI program in this region only has 2 pillars running, namely the pillar of economic empowerment and guaranteeing the rights of migrant workers' children.

Abstract

Even though pre-service teachers are crucial to raising educational standards, there is a disconnect between classroom theory and real-world practice. Preservice teachers' perspectives on the Teaching-Campus Program's impact on their professional growth as educators are the focus of this research. The research team used quantitative methods and descriptive analysis to gather data from a closed-ended questionnaire. The questionnaire assessed eight different areas of teaching abilities: lesson planning, explanation, variation, questioning, reinforcement, classroom management, small group instruction, and small group discussion facilitation. With a mean score of 90.63 percent, the results demonstrated that the pre-service teachers' capacity to articulate ideas clearly and provide appropriate examples was the strongest competency. Questioning skills followed with a mean score of 90.00%, while opening and closing the lessons skills scored 89.69%. Reinforcement skills recorded a mean score of 88.33%, and classroom management skills reached 87.71%. Small group teaching skills and variation skills achieved mean scores of 85.32% and 85.00%, respectively. Guiding small group discussions skills obtained the lowest score of 80.94%, indicating the need for further improvement in this area. As a whole, the Teaching-Campus Program has helped prepare future educators for the classroom by connecting classroom practice with classroom theory. If they want to advance in their careers, they should get more training on how to lead group discussions and how to change up their teaching methods.

Abstract

This research examines the effectiveness of providing psychoeducation on dating behavior among overseas teenagers in Bukittinggi City. Adolescents who migrate often face unique challenges and stressors, making them vulnerable to risky dating behavior. Psychoeducation aims to equip these youth with the knowledge and skills necessary to engage in healthy and respectful romantic relationships. This research used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design to evaluate the impact of psychoeducation. A total of 40 overseas teenagers, aged 15–19, participated in this research. They receive psychoeducation sessions specifically designed to address the issues they face related to dating in a new environment. The research results showed that there was a significant increase in teenagers' understanding and skills regarding healthy relationships after attending psychoeducation sessions. These findings suggest that psychoeducational interventions can be an effective strategy for helping overseas youth develop more positive dating behavior and reduce the risk of risky behavior in their relationships. This research makes an important contribution to the fields of health education and adolescent psychology and provides a basis for the development of more effective intervention programs to support the psychosocial well-being of overseas adolescents.

Abstract

In Indonesia, taxes are the primary source of state revenue and are a top priority in government management. The government gradually began to focus on Indonesia's Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector in 2013, which experienced accelerated growth due to the imposition of taxes on MSMEs. Nevertheless, taxpayer compliance in Indonesia remains an annual issue due to the low level of tax compliance. This investigation aims to investigate and analyze the impact of religiosity, love of money, and knowledge of taxation on taxpayers' compliance in MSMEs registered at KPP Pratama Kudus. Primary data was acquired through questionnaires in this investigation, which employs a quantitative methodology. The population of MSME taxpayers registered at KPP Pratama Kudus is the subject of this study, with a total sample of 178 respondents used. The technique employed in this investigation was random sampling. The SPSS version 25 software application is utilized to process the data analysis technique in this study, which involves multiple linear regression analysis. The findings of this investigation suggest that taxpayer compliance is significantly and positively influenced by religiosity, a fondness for money, and an understanding of taxation.
