Abstract

The Free-to-Play (F2P) business model in the digital gaming market, exemplified by Valorant, relies primarily on a monetization strategy centered on In-App Purchases (IAP) of non-functional cosmetic goods and battle passes. Unlike functional microtransactions, these IAPs are defined as virtual assets that offer aesthetic or symbolic value without providing direct mechanical advantages to gameplay. This explanatory quantitative study adopts the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) theory to test the influence of four primary stimuli, Competitive Edge, Aesthetic Dominance Effect, Perceived Scarcity, and Peer Validation Expectancy, on purchase intention through the mediating role of Perceived Enjoyment. Data were collected from 180 active Valorant players in Indonesia and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that Competitive Edge (β = 0.163, p = 0.039), Perceived Scarcity (β = 0.200, p = 0.018), and Peer Validation Expectancy (β = 0.362, p < 0.001) contribute significantly and positively to Perceived Enjoyment. However, the Aesthetic Dominance Effect was found to be non-significant (β = 0.111, p = 0.118), suggesting that visual complexity alone does not drive enjoyment in a competitive FPS context. Perceived Enjoyment was confirmed as a significant mediator, effectively converting psychological and social stimuli into Purchase Intention (β = 0.611, p < 0.001). This research contributes to the S-O-R framework by demonstrating the dominance of social signaling and mastery over pure aesthetics in the competitive gaming ecosystem. Managerially, developers are advised to implement responsible monetization by prioritizing social recognition systems and transparent scarcity triggers that enhance, rather than disrupt, the player’s hedonic experience.

Abstract

Introduction: Shoppertainment platforms such as TikTok Shop and Shopee Live combine live interaction, social proof, scarcity cues, and instant checkout, creating a shopping setting that can heighten emotional arousal among Generation Z consumers. This study examines how social exclusion, fear of missing out, online impulsive buying, and post-purchase regret operate together in Indonesian shoppertainment. Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted among Indonesian Generation Z users of TikTok Shop and Shopee Live. Validated reflective measures were adapted from prior studies and translated through forward and back translation. The data were analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling with bootstrapping. Results: The findings show that social exclusion is strongly associated with FOMO, but its direct association with online impulsive buying is not significant. FOMO is positively associated with online impulsive buying and post-purchase regret, while online impulsive buying is positively associated with post-purchase regret. Mediation testing indicates that FOMO fully mediates the relationship between social exclusion and online impulsive buying, and online impulsive buying partially mediates the relationship between FOMO and post-purchase regret. Conclusion: FOMO is the central psychological pathway through which social exclusion is translated into impulsive purchases in shoppertainment. The study highlights the ethical need for platforms and brands to reduce manipulative urgency cues and protect consumer agency.

Abstract

In the Lake Toba region, a lot of weavers attempt to make eco-handloom items like ulos.  However, in order to compete, they must improve their ability to absorb in order to make eco-handloom. In this regard, we aimed to assess the Product Performance using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) in 242 weavers on the coast of Lake Toba in Indonesia. The impact of Entrepreneurial Orientation on Product Performance, with Pro Competition Absorptive Capacity as a moderator investigated in this study.  According to the study's findings, eco-handloom weavers must have an entrepreneurial mindset in order to improve the performance of their products. The results shows that Entrepreneur Orientation effects on Product Performance is positive and significant. The moderating effects of Pro Competition Absorptive Capacity on the relationship between Entrepreneurial Orientation and Product Performance is positive and significant. Businesses that adopt an entrepreneurial attitude are more equipped to innovate, adapt, and prosper in cutthroat marketplaces.  According to the facts, integrating various viewpoints improves the weaver capacities and promotes long-term success.

Abstract

This study examines the relationships among financial literacy, risk tolerance, future time perspective, saving habits, and financial well-being. This empirical model addresses limited evidence in research on teachers' context related to financial well-being. This study used a quantitative approach, employing a questionnaire administered to private school teachers in Jakarta. The data were collected from 160 non-certified private school teachers who were aged 23 to 55. Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) were used to analysed the data. The findings show that future time perspective is the strongest predictor, with positive effects on both financial well-being and saving habits. Saving habits also enhance financial well-being, suggesting that routine saving behaviour plays an important role in strengthening teachers' perceived financial security. Financial literacy does not directly improve financial well-being, but it significantly promotes saving habits, indicating that financial knowledge becomes more meaningful when translated into disciplined financial behaviour. Risk tolerance shows no significant direct and indirect effect on financial well-being, implying that willingness to take financial risks may not necessarily support well-being through saving behaviour. Then, saving habits were not proven to be a mediator between financial literacy, risk tolerance, future time perspective, and financial well-being. This is because saving is a necessity in the context of urban workers in big cities, so financial behaviour is not always initiated by intention, but rather by conditions that require them to survive. This study highlights the importance of future-oriented thinking and consistent saving habits as key behavioural foundations of financial well-being.

Abstract

This study examines the association between recruitment, selection, and human resource (HR) performance in Indonesia's industrial sector a context underrepresented in existing HR literature despite its distinct labor market characteristics, including a rapidly formalizing HR infrastructure and sector-specific skill demands in manufacturing, automotive, and textile industries. While prior studies confirm positive relationships between talent acquisition practices and employee performance, evidence from emerging economy industrial firms operating under semi-formalized HR systems remains limited, and the combined predictive role of recruitment and selection has rarely been tested within this context. Using a cross-sectional survey of 200 employees from industrial companies in Central Java and multiple linear regression analysis, this study finds that recruitment (β = 0.456, p < 0.001) and selection (β = 0.523, p < 0.001) are each positively associated with HR performance, together accounting for 67.8% of its variance (R² = 0.678). Because the design is cross-sectional, these results indicate association rather than causation. The findings suggest that more systematic and structured talent acquisition practices correspond with better employee performance outcomes, and offer sector-specific empirical evidence to inform HR policy in Indonesian industrial firms where formal recruitment and selection standards are still developing.

Abstract

This study explores how ethical leadership is practiced and experienced by senior bureaucratic leaders in Indonesian public institutions. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and document analysis involving eight experienced leaders from central and regional government organizations. The findings reveal three interrelated dimensions of ethical leadership: exemplary behavior, moral courage in high-risk decision-making, and relational justice toward subordinates, particularly in regulatory gray areas. These results suggest that ethical leadership is enacted as a contextually grounded and reflective moral practice, extending beyond formal compliance. The study highlights the relevance of integrating moral reasoning into leadership development while providing an experience-based perspective on ethical leadership in public administration.

Abstract

Talent management has emerged as a strategic approach to improving employee performance; however, previous empirical findings remain fragmented and methodologically diverse, limiting a comprehensive understanding of its overall impact. This study aims to systematically examine the relationship between talent management and employee performance while identifying dominant methodological trends in the literature. Using a systematic literature review approach, relevant articles published in reputable academic databases were analyzed based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings indicate that talent management consistently contributes to enhancing employee performance through improved employee engagement, competency development, organizational commitment, and retention. Nevertheless, these findings should be interpreted as indicative patterns rather than definitive causal relationships due to variations in research designs and analytical approaches across studies. In addition, the review reveals that quantitative methods dominate previous research, while integrative and longitudinal perspectives remain limited. This study contributes to clarifying the current state of evidence, identifying methodological limitations, and offering practical implications for organizations in developing more adaptive and sustainable talent management strategies, while also recommending future research using longitudinal designs, mixed-method approaches, and more rigorous analytical integration.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the effect of compensation anomalies on contextual performance, as well as to explore the role of public service motivation as a moderating variable among part-time government employees in Dompu Regency. Compensation anomalies in this study are conceptualized as systemic deviations of a structural nature, encompassing uncertainty regarding payment schedules, ambiguity in wage regulations, and discrepancies between actual workloads and administrative legalities frequently experienced by contract employees. The study population consisted of 5,387 part-time employees (honorary staff), with a sample of 373 respondents. Primary data were collected via a questionnaire and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method through SmartPLS 3.0 software. The results of the data analysis indicate that compensation anomalies have a positive and significant effect on both contextual performance and motivation in public service. Theoretically, this finding is counterintuitive because financial uncertainty, which typically reduces performance, actually fosters a sense of shared adversity among employees in this study. Furthermore, Public Service Motivation (PSM) was found to have a positive effect on contextual performance and acts as a moderating variable that mitigates the impact of this anomaly. PSM functions as a psychological anchor that neutralizes compensation distortions through the idealism of public service. However, these findings must be interpreted cautiously as a reflection of a specific local sociocultural context; thus, their practical implications cannot be generalized to justify anomalous compensation systems in other regions.

Abstract

This study examines how perceived organizational support and ethical leadership influence employee wellbeing in foreign-invested plantation organizations, addressing a gap in the literature regarding the distinct roles of behavioral and attitudinal mediators in labor-intensive contexts. While prior studies often position job crafting and work engagement as complementary mechanisms, this study explicitly compares their mediating roles within a single framework. Using a quantitative design, data were collected from 170 employees out of a population of 258 through a census-based approach and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results show that perceived organizational support (β = 0.290, p < 0.05) and ethical leadership (β = 0.372, p < 0.05) have significant positive effects on employee wellbeing. Job crafting also has a significant positive effect on wellbeing and significantly mediates the relationships between perceived organizational support and wellbeing as well as between ethical leadership and wellbeing (p < 0.05). In contrast, work engagement does not have a significant direct or mediating effect (p > 0.05). These findings emphasize job crafting as the key empirically supported mechanism linking organizational support and ethical leadership to employee wellbeing, highlighting the importance of proactive work behaviors over attitudinal states in plantation settings. This study contributes to the literature by clarifying the differential roles of mediators and provides practical implications for designing interventions that foster employee-initiated job redesign to enhance wellbeing in labor-intensive industries.

Abstract

Many MSMEs now rely on digital technology in their everyday marketing activities, especially to reach customers and promote their products more efficiently. Using digital media, businesses can reach customers more easily, introduce products, and keep in touch with buyers. However, not all MSMEs get better marketing results from using technology. A main reason is that many businesses are not ready to use technology well in their work. While many studies have examined digital adoption and the entrepreneurial mindset, few have examined how readiness to adopt technology affects marketing success in MSMEs. This study examines how technology readiness and an entrepreneurial mindset impact marketing outcomes. It also examines whether an entrepreneurial mindset alters the effect of technology readiness on marketing success. The study collected data from 180 MSME owners and managers in Cirebon City, Indonesia. Participants were selected deliberately, and information was collected through questionnaires. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The results show that being ready to adopt technology is strongly linked to better marketing results. Having an entrepreneurial mindset also helps marketing success. However, the idea that an entrepreneurial mindset changes the effect of technology readiness was not supported. This means that being ready to use technology directly improves marketing results, regardless of entrepreneurial mindset. The findings show that digital marketing success in MSMEs depends heavily on how ready businesses are to use technology in their operations and decision-making.
