Abstract

This study discusses the Communication Competence of Islamic Religious Counselors in Preventing Early Marriage Through Guidance for School-Age Adolescents (BRUS) at SMK Negeri 2 Barru. The background of this study is based on the high number of early marriages which have a negative impact on education, health, and the future of adolescents, so that an active role of religious counselors is needed as agents of change in providing education and guidance to adolescents. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving religious counselors, teachers, and students as informants. The results of the study indicate that (1) religious counselors have communication competencies that include interpersonal communication skills, persuasive communication, dialogic and empathetic in order to build emotional closeness with students. (2) The BRUS program at SMK Negeri 2 shows positive achievements thanks to the support of various supporting factors, including the openness of the school, the competence of religious counselors in effective and contextual communication, and active student participation. (3) The communication strategy used by Islamic religious counselors in the BRUS program at SMK Negeri 2 Barru has proven effective in preventing early marriage. A persuasive approach through emotional, rational, and religious aspects successfully touches both the affective and cognitive aspects of students, thus encouraging conscious attitude change. This strategy is complemented by the use of communicative and contextual communication tailored to the background and dynamics of students' lives. Although this approach is relevant to the needs of adolescents, its effectiveness still needs to be improved through flexible time planning, small guidance groups, and cross-sector collaboration.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) mechanisms on the earnings quality of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2018–2023 period. Using a quantitative approach and multiple linear regression analysis, this research examines the impact of managerial ownership, institutional ownership, board independence, audit committee, and board size on earnings quality measured by the Modified Jones Model. The sample consists of 60 manufacturing firms selected through purposive sampling based on their disclosure completeness and audited financial reports. The results show that managerial and institutional ownership have a positive and significant effect on earnings quality, indicating that both internal and external ownership structures enhance monitoring and reduce earnings manipulation. Board independence and audit committee activity also contribute positively to earnings reliability, confirming their essential role in strengthening oversight and internal control systems. Furthermore, the simultaneous F-test demonstrates that all GCG mechanisms collectively influence earnings quality, emphasizing the importance of integrated governance in improving financial transparency and credibility. This study concludes that the implementation of GCG principles enhances the trust of investors and stakeholders while promoting sustainable financial reporting practices in Indonesia’s manufacturing sector.

Abstract

Informed consent is a fundamental component of modern medical practice that emphasizes the importance of a patient’s approval after receiving clear, adequate, and understandable information regarding a medical procedure. This concept reflects not only respect for patient autonomy but also serves as a legal safeguard for healthcare professionals in the performance of their duties. In Indonesia, the regulation of informed consent has undergone notable development. Ministerial regulations, the Medical Code of Ethics, and Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health provide the normative foundation that affirms patients’ rights to obtain sufficient information and to give conscious consent before any medical intervention. This study applies a normative juridical method with a statutory and conceptual approach. The findings reveal that the latest legal framework reinforces documentation obligations and clarifies the standards that must be fulfilled by medical practitioners, including in emergency situations. Nevertheless, practical implementation remains challenged by several factors, such as patients’ limited comprehension, the use of complex medical terminology, time constraints faced by healthcare providers, and the suboptimal practice of written documentation. These challenges create potential legal disputes, both in civil and criminal domains, when medical procedures are carried out without valid consent. Therefore, the effective application of informed consent requires synergy between clear regulations, adequate understanding among medical personnel, and improved health literacy among the public. Consequently, informed consent should not be seen merely as an administrative formality but rather as an essential legal and ethical safeguard that enhances the quality of healthcare services.

Abstract

Introduction: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury is one of the most common knee ligament injuries, particularly in the athletic population. Anatomical risk factors, such as knee bone morphology, are thought to play a crucial role in injury susceptibility. One parameter under investigation is the Lateral Femoral Index (LFCI), which describes the shape of the lateral femoral condyle. This study aimed to analyze the difference in LFCI in patients with ACL rupture compared to normal individuals as a potential risk factor. Methods: This study employed an observational analytic design with a case-control approach, conducted at H. Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan. The sample consisted of 50 subjects divided into two groups: 25 patients with an arthroscopically confirmed diagnosis of ACL rupture (case group) and 25 healthy individuals with no history of knee injury (control group). The LFCI was measured from true lateral projection knee radiographs. An independent T-test was used for statistical analysis to compare the mean LFCI difference between the two groups. Results: The mean age of the study subjects was 30.68 ± 5.35 years. The measurements revealed that the mean LFCI in the ACL rupture group was significantly lower (0.68 ± 0.56) compared to the control group (0.74 ± 0.56). This difference was statistically significant (p < 0.001). Conclusion: There is a significant difference in the Lateral Femoral Index (LFCI) between patients with ACL rupture and normal individuals. A lower LFCI value can be considered an anatomical risk factor for ACL rupture.

Abstract

Background: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury is a significant orthopedic problem, particularly among young, active individuals. Anatomical factors, such as a narrow intercondylar notch, are considered intrinsic risks. However, findings on the association between the Notch Width Index (NWI) and femoral notch shape with ACL tears vary across populations. This study aimed to describe these anatomical characteristics in patients diagnosed with ACL injury at H. Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan. Methods: A descriptive observational study was conducted using medical records and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data of patients treated between January 2023 and December 2024. A total of 64 patients with confirmed ACL injuries who met the inclusion criteria were included. Data on demographics, mechanism of injury, NWI, and femoral notch shape (classified as Type A, U, or W) were collected and analyzed descriptively. Results: The majority of patients were male (71.9%), with a mean age of 27.75 ± 8.35 years. The most common occupations were student (35.9%) and private employee (32.8%). The primary mechanism of injury was sports-related activities (64.1%), with the left knee being more commonly affected (64.1%). The mean NWI for the cohort was 0.28 ± 0.032. The most prevalent femoral notch morphologies were Type W (46.9%) and Type U (42.2%), while Type A was the least common (10.9%). Conclusion: In this cohort, ACL injuries predominantly affect young adult males involved in sports. The average NWI suggests a tendency towards a narrower intercondylar notch. Contrary to some studies, wider notch shapes (Type W and U) were more frequent than the stenotic Type A, indicating potential population-specific anatomical variations.

Abstract

The background of this study arises from the fact that unregistered marriages (nikah siri) are still prevalent in Indonesia, making marriage validation petitions an important legal instrument to obtain state recognition. However, in this case, a legal issue arose because the petitioner did not involve Mursani’s previous wives, who are still alive and have children that legally may have interests in the heir’s status and inheritance rights. The research questions in this study are as follows: 1) What are the judge’s juridical considerations in rejecting the marriage validation petition? 2) Have the judge’s considerations complied with the provisions of positive law and the substantive justice principles in Islamic law?. This study employs a normative juridical method using a case approach and a statute approach. Data sources are obtained from court decisions, legislation (Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage, the Compilation of Islamic Law, and Supreme Court Regulations related to family cases), as well as Islamic legal doctrines and literature. The analysis results show that the judge rejected the marriage validation petition because the first and second wives were not involved as respondents, even though they legally have potential interests in the outcome of the ruling. This consideration was based on the principle of audi et alteram partem (the right of every party to be heard), which is a fundamental principle of justice. However, substantively, this rejection creates a problem of legal utility, as it leaves the petitioner’s (third wife’s) marital status and her children’s legal standing unprotected, both administratively and civilly—particularly concerning inheritance and lineage rights. This study concludes that the judge’s decision is formally in accordance with the principles of civil procedural law; however, materially, it does not fully reflect the principles of utility and substantive justice for legally vulnerable parties, particularly for children born from unregistered marriages. A more progressive judicial guideline is needed so that judges can balance formal legal certainty with the protection of the civil rights of children and women in contentious marriage validation (isbat nikah) cases.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of information technology in the digital era has brought significant convenience to various aspects of human life, yet it has also given rise to new forms of criminal behavior known as cybercrime. This phenomenon encompasses a wide range of unlawful acts such as hacking, data theft, online fraud, and the dissemination of false information, all of which can cause serious social and economic harm. Such developments demand a legal system that can adapt to the dynamic, borderless, and often untraceable nature of cyberspace. This article aims to describe the various types of cybercrimes emerging in Indonesia, analyze the key challenges in law enforcement, and propose strategic measures to strengthen the effectiveness of their handling. The study employs a qualitative method with a normative juridical and descriptive-analytical approach through the examination of relevant literature, legal frameworks, and national research findings. The results indicate that law enforcement against cybercrime in Indonesia faces several obstacles, including regulatory gaps that fail to keep pace with technological progress, limited resources among law enforcement personnel, the complexity of digital evidence, and weak inter-agency and cross-border coordination. Therefore, it is essential to harmonize existing regulations, enhance the technical capacity of law enforcement officers, foster effective international cooperation, and promote public education on digital security to ensure that the national criminal justice system can respond comprehensively and adaptively to the challenges of digitalization.

Abstract

The protection of women’s inheritance rights represents a fundamental issue within Indonesia’s civil inheritance law system, which continues to encounter various challenges stemming from patriarchal cultural influences and gender-biased social constructs. Although the Indonesian Civil Code (KUHPerdata) explicitly affirms that men and women are entitled to equal rights in inheritance matters, practical realities often reveal persistent disparities in wealth distribution. Such inequities frequently arise from societal perceptions that position men as the principal heirs while viewing women as less entitled to family property. This article aims to examine the legal protection afforded to female heirs within the framework of Indonesia’s civil inheritance law and to evaluate the extent to which principles of equality and non-discrimination have been effectively applied in legal practice. Employing a normative juridical approach, this study analyzes statutory regulations, judicial decisions, and relevant legal literature. The findings indicate that, although civil inheritance law normatively guarantees equal inheritance rights for women and men, gaps remain in its practical implementation. Therefore, strengthening legal protection mechanisms, enhancing gender awareness, and fostering cooperation between law enforcement institutions and women’s advocacy organizations are essential to achieving substantive justice for female heirs in Indonesia.

Abstract

The establishment of a minimum education requirement for candidates of the House of Representatives (DPR) has become a complex legal issue, sparking debates between the principles of meritocracy and the fulfillment of citizens’ constitutional rights. On one hand, educational qualifications are considered essential to ensure the intellectual capacity, rationality, and legislative competence of parliamentary members in performing their lawmaking and supervisory functions. On the other hand, such provisions may lead to discrimination against citizens who lack access to adequate formal education, thereby restricting their constitutional right to be elected as guaranteed under the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. This article aims to thoroughly examine the legal implications of establishing a minimum education requirement for DPR candidates from the perspective of the 1945 Constitution and the Constitutional Court’s jurisprudence. Using a normative juridical approach, this study analyzes the compatibility of educational restrictions with the principles of equality before the law, political rights, and constitutional democracy. The findings reveal that educational qualifications should not be perceived as discriminatory limitations but rather as instruments to ensure competence and integrity within the legislative body as part of a democratic rule-of-law system. Nevertheless, such restrictions must be formulated proportionally, clearly, and in accordance with constitutional objectives so as not to violate the principle of equality before the law or the fundamental right of citizens to participate in governance. Therefore, any regulation regarding educational requirements for DPR candidates must strike a balance between the need for legislative professionalism and the protection of citizens’ constitutional rights.

Abstract

The rapid development of financial technology (fintech) has fundamentally transformed national financial systems, particularly through the emergence of peer-to-peer (P2P) lending services that enable individuals to obtain funding quickly and easily without the involvement of traditional financial institutions. This business model not only promotes financial inclusion but also drives the growth of Indonesia’s digital economy. Nevertheless, behind its efficiency and convenience, fintech lending poses substantial legal and economic risks most notably the risk of default, which can cause significant losses for both lenders and borrowers. The occurrence of defaults in fintech lending illustrates an imbalance in the legal standing between platform providers, lenders, and borrowers. Within the framework of Indonesia’s economic law, consumer protection serves as a crucial element in maintaining fairness and trust in digital financial systems. This article aims to examine the forms and effectiveness of legal protection available to consumers in cases of fintech lending default, emphasizing the role and responsibility of the Financial Services Authority (Otoritas Jasa Keuangan OJK) as the supervisory body of the financial services sector. This study employs a normative legal research method using statutory and conceptual approaches to analyze the existing regulations and policies, including OJK Regulation No. 10/POJK.05/2022 on Information Technology-Based Joint Funding Services. The findings indicate that, although OJK regulations have established a strong legal foundation, the practical implementation of consumer protection remains challenging particularly in areas of supervision, dispute resolution, and public financial literacy regarding digital finance.
