Abstract

The development of short-form video-based social media has positioned TikTok as a strategic channel for tourism destination promotion because it can deliver visual experiences, information, and social validation quickly to prospective tourists. This study aims to analyze the effect of TikTok short-form video content value on visit intention toward Indonesian tourism destinations through the roles of consumer engagement, consumer involvement, and electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM). This study applies the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) framework, with content characteristics as the stimulus, perceived value, consumer engagement, and consumer involvement as the organism, and eWOM and visit intention as the response. This study uses a quantitative explanatory approach through an online survey, and the data are analyzed using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The study involved 300 TikTok users in Indonesia who had been exposed to tourism destination video content, with respondents predominantly female, in the productive age group, and domiciled in Jabodetabek. The findings show that entertainment, informativeness, credibility, personalization, and irritation significantly influence perceived value, while incentives do not have a significant effect. The findings also reveal that perceived value positively influences consumer engagement, consumer involvement, and visit intention, while consumer engagement, consumer involvement, and eWOM contribute to increasing visit intention through psychological engagement and digital recommendation mechanisms. This study contributes theoretically by extending the application of the S-O-R framework to TikTok short-form video content in digital tourism marketing and managerially by providing implications for destination managers to design informative, credible, entertaining, personalized content that encourages user interaction and positive eWOM.

Abstract

This study analysed the socio-economic and environmental factors influencing household participation in the extraction of forest products from Mount Kenya Forest, Kenya. The methodology A cross-sectional survey design was employed to gather quantitative data on household-level participation in forest product extraction. This design was selected for its cost-effectiveness and suitability for capturing data at a single point in time. A multistage sampling approach was adopted to identify sampling units.. Descriptive analysis shows that 77% of households participated in forest product extraction, primarily for domestic and commercial purposes, only 361 respondents were captured and found suitable for this study. The results reveal that household size, income, education level, awareness of forest management practices, and distance to the forest significantly influence participation. The binary logistic regression analyses confirmed these factors as key determinants, with larger households and lower education correlating positively with higher extraction rates for products like firewood, medicinal plants, and fodder, while wealthier and employed individuals showed reduced dependency. These results confirm that forest resource use is multifactorial, driven by a blend of necessity, opportunity, and awareness. They also highlight that forest degradation is not solely a function of a single factor but rather is influenced by household strategies to meet diverse livelihood needs.

Abstract

This study examines the role of accountants in leveraging carbon accounting as a strategic instrument to support energy security amidst global geopolitical dynamics. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed through a systematic literature review guided by the PRISMA framework, with data collected from various international academic databases covering publications from 2021 to 2026. Articles were selected based on relevance, indexing quality, and methodological clarity. The findings indicate that carbon accounting has evolved from a compliance-oriented reporting tool to a strategic information system that supports environmental transparency, energy efficiency, and managerial decision-making. Accountants are shown to play an increasingly central role in transforming carbon data into actionable strategic insights, particularly in managing energy risks generated by geopolitical tensions. However, implementation in Indonesia remains constrained by limited integration between accounting and energy management systems, a weak regulatory framework, and inadequate sustainability competencies among accounting professionals. The study concludes that integrating carbon accounting with the strategic role of accountants is crucial for strengthening corporate energy security, and recommends further empirical research in high-emission and energy-intensive sectors to validate the proposed integrative framework.

Abstract

Water resource management in urban areas requires sustainable strategies, particularly in regions facing increasing pressure on groundwater use and rising rainwater runoff. This study aims to design a rainwater utilization system at the Graha Environesia Building, Sleman Regency, as an alternative source to partially meet clean water demand and support groundwater conservation. The study was conducted through an analysis of rainwater quality, rainfall data, building clean water demand, rainwater harvesting system calculations, pipeline network planning, water quality treatment, and estimation of system costs and environmental benefits. The Graha Environesia Building has a clean water demand of 2,750 liters per day, with a total of 90 users. The results show that most rainwater quality parameters met the required standards, except for hexavalent chromium (Cr6+), which requires treatment through an adsorption system using zeolite. The designed system is capable of collecting 5.8 m³ of rainwater per day, with a utilization efficiency of 47% of the building’s total water demand. The system requires an adsorption tank with a capacity of 0.0203 m³ using 3 kg of zeolite, with an estimated treatment efficiency of 90%. The estimated construction cost of the system is IDR 38,446,000.00. The implementation of this rainwater utilization system has the potential to reduce groundwater use by 870,000 liters per year, making it a technical and ecological solution to support groundwater conservation in urban areas.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) constructs — attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control — on students’ sustainable behavior across four dimensions: pro-ecological, frugal, altruistic, and equitable, while mapping student perceptions of UI GreenMetric indicators to identify Green Campus intervention priorities at Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS). A cross-sectional quantitative design was employed involving 163 active UNS students selected through purposive sampling, using validated questionnaires analyzed through multiple linear regression. The TPB model significantly predicted sustainable behavior overall, with attitude and perceived behavioral control as consistent significant predictors while the subjective norm showed no significant effect at the aggregate level. Predictive power varied dramatically across dimensions, from near-strong explanation in altruistic and pro-ecological behavior to near-zero in equitable behavior, revealing that sustainable behavior dimensions operate through fundamentally different psychological mechanisms, with equitable behavior appearing to function through moral value processes beyond TPB’s explanatory scope. Perception mapping identified a structural gap between institutional achievement and student experience: waste management, despite UNS ranking 4th nationally, was identified as the top student priority yet barely perceived in daily campus life, while sustainable transportation emerged as the sharpest paradox confirmed simultaneously by regression findings, behavioral self-reports, and GreenMetric rankings. These findings challenge the assumption that high institutional sustainability achievement automatically produces behavioral change among students, and call for differentiated strategies targeting infrastructure improvement, social norm reinforcement, and program communication embedded in students’ daily experience.

Abstract

The global plastic pollution crisis prompted the formulation of the Global Plastics Treaty, which places reporting as a fundamental pillar of the agreement's effectiveness. However, the reporting mandate has been nationally oriented without accommodating community-based waste management initiatives at the local level. This study aims to develop a sustainability reporting model for community-based household waste management programs in Bali that aligns with the Global Plastics Treaty framework and the GRI 306: Waste 2020 standard. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design in several community-based programs in Bali, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, documentation studies, and focus group discussions with stakeholders. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The study resulted in a multilevel reporting model with three levels of indicators: basic community-level indicators (waste volume, participation, managed waste, residue, income); intermediate indicators at the district/city level (per capita generation, recycling, waste reduction to landfill, economic impact); and advanced indicators at the provincial, national, and international levels (plastic consumption, waste leakage, GHG emissions) that align with the mandate of Article 15 of the Global Plastics Treaty. This research contributes to the sustainability accounting literature and provides operational guidance for communities and local governments in Bali. This model confirms that the effectiveness of the Global Plastics Treaty depends on the ability to bridge global mandates with local practices, making communities an integral part of the solution to the global plastics crisis.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze formal, informal, and symbolic OHS communication patterns across organizational levels at PT Asahimas Flat Glass Tbk and to construct the first empirically grounded, channel-specific multilevel OHS communication model for glass manufacturing operationalized through the Convergence Model in a Southeast Asian high-risk industrial context. A constructivist qualitative case study design was employed with 14 purposively sampled informants spanning managerial to operational levels; data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation of nine communication events, and document analysis, then coded in NVivo using grounded theory open, axial, and selective coding procedures with source and technique triangulation throughout. The findings of this study reveal a multilevel OHS communication architecture integrating cascading formal policy directives and ritualized daily Toolbox Meetings as the primary transmission mechanism, informal interpersonal channels bridging hierarchical formality with behavioral internalization, and digital reporting via the My Asahimas application raising participation from 79% to 97% among 889 employees by addressing the culturally embedded barrier of sungkan through anonymization—with the core phenomenon identified as safety culture internalization through a multilevel guerrilla communication strategy. The contribution of this study is the SHIFT Model (Safety Habituation through Interactive and Formal Transformation), the first indigenous five-stage model empirically grounding safety culture internalization in Indonesian glass manufacturing, while simultaneously advancing Convergence Model theory in Southeast Asian high-risk industrial contexts and providing practitioners with a diagnostic framework for identifying and addressing internalization regression at each stage of safety culture transformation.

Abstract

Strategic measurement of hospital human resources is needed because administrative indicators alone cannot explain the contribution of workforce management to service quality and operational performance. This study aims to develop and initially evaluate a Human Resource Scorecard instrument to measure human resource performance at Dr. Ben Mboi General Hospital, Kupang. Methods: This study reports the quantitative instrument assessment phase of a broader exploratory sequential mixed methods study. Quantitative data were collected using purposive sampling from 200 respondents consisting of healthcare workers, administrative staff, and managerial personnel. The study employed confirmatory factor analysis or structural equation modeling. The results indicate that the Human Resource Scorecard Instrument for Dr. Ben Mboi General Hospital, Kupang, demonstrated acceptable initial item validity and strong internal consistency reliability. The overall Human Resource Scorecard level was moderate, indicating that human resource management practices have been implemented but still require targeted improvement. Performance and productivity were the strongest dimensions, while compensation and rewards were the weakest. Occupational safety and well-being also require managerial attention, particularly through working hours, workload, number of patients per shift, staffing adequacy, and prevention of workplace violence. These findings suggest that hospital human resource performance measurement should include strategic dimensions related to workforce capability, engagement, leadership, reward fairness, safety, well-being, and productivity. Recruitment, training, leadership, engagement, compensation, performance management, workplace well-being, workforce retention, and employee satisfaction are interrelated and can impact service processes, staff retention, and quality of care.

Abstract

This study aims to enhance learning outcomes and achievement in technology—specifically by helping students understand science and technology concepts and their real-life applications—and to foster critical thinking skills, enabling students to think critically and analytically when solving problems related to science and technology. Learning outcomes refer to changes in behavior or capabilities that occur in students following the learning process; these outcomes may manifest as acquired knowledge, attitudes, or skills. The subjects of this study are teachers at SD Negeri 3 Buduk, an educational institution implementing the *Merdeka Belajar* (Freedom to Learn) curriculum. Preliminary observations involved gathering data on student learning outcomes and achievement through interviews, observations, and documentation. The issues faced by the partner teachers included a lack of understanding regarding the Group Investigation (GI) model and concerns stemming from previous instruction on the GI model. The implementation utilized a Group Investigation (GI) approach incorporating both quantitative and qualitative methods; this involved engaging the group, selecting the venue, and designating the selected individuals as training participants. The intervention was systematically planned, with students receiving instructional materials—prepared by the team in the form of a module—covering the fundamental concepts of the Group Investigation (GI) model to improve learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effects of soft skills, hard skills, and work–life balance on the performance of Generation Z employees, with job satisfaction serving as an intervening variable, at PT Bank Riau Kepri Syariah, Riau Province. This research employed a quantitative approach, with data collected through a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with the assistance of SmartPLS software. The results indicate that hard skills and work–life balance have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction, whereas soft skills do not have a significant effect. Furthermore, soft skills and job satisfaction have a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while hard skills and work–life balance do not have a direct significant effect on employee performance. The mediation analysis reveals that job satisfaction mediates the effects of hard skills and work–life balance on employee performance but does not mediate the effect of soft skills. These findings suggest that improving hard skills and implementing an effective work–life balance should be supported by enhanced job satisfaction to improve the performance of Generation Z employees. Therefore, organizations are encouraged to strengthen employees' soft skills through training programs, teamwork development, and emotional intelligence enhancement.
