Abstract

Objective: This teaching staff commitment is a crucial factor influencing the success and continuity of various activities within higher education. This research seeks to develop and evaluate a theoretical model that examines the impact of servant leadership on organizational commitment, with work-life balance serving as a mediating variable for female teaching staff in the higher education sector. Method: The study involved 117 female teaching staff who were permanent staff, married, and had at least one year of experience in higher education. Using a quantitative research design, the researchers employed Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) for analysis. Data collection involved scales measuring organizational commitment, servant leadership, and work-life balance. The validity and reliability of the constructs were assessed using an outer model, and the research data were analyzed using an inner model in SmartPLS 4.0. Results: The study findings demonstrate the development of a theoretical framework illustrating the impact of servant leadership on organizational commitment, with work-life balance serving as a mediating variable, consistent with the empirical evidence. However, the results indicate that the relationship between servant leadership and organizational commitment cannot be explained by work-life balance acting as a mediator. Novelty: This study introduces a new approach by simultaneously testing a mediator involving the variables of organizational commitment, servant leadership, and work-life balance, with a special focus on female teaching staff who work and are married in a university environment.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of integrating adaptive conversational AI models in enhancing language proficiency—specifically speaking and listening skills and learning motivation among BIPA (Indonesian for Foreign Speakers) learners. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was employed involving 30 BIPA learners at ESGC São João de Brito, Liquica, Timor-Leste. Participants were divided into an experimental group utilizing an adaptive conversational AI model and a control group following conventional teaching methods. Data collection encompassed language proficiency tests (speaking and listening), questionnaires to gauge learning motivation, and direct classroom observation. Results: The findings revealed significant improvements in the experimental group's speaking and listening abilities compared to the control group. Furthermore, learners using AI exhibited higher motivation levels, engaged in more active classroom interactions, and held positive perceptions of the AI-based approach, whereas the control group did not demonstrate comparable gains. Novelty: This research underscores the distinct potential of adaptive conversational AI not only for improving oral communication but also for fostering intercultural competence among BIPA learners. It offers valuable insights for designing innovative, responsive, and learner-centered teaching strategies within technology-integrated BIPA curricula.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to analyze the effect of behavioral bias on investment decisions of undergraduate students in Indonesia in the context of higher education with risk perception as a mediating variable and financial literacy as a moderating variable as a basis for strengthening the behavioral-based financial literacy curriculum in universities, as well as preparing students to become rational investors. Method: The study used a quantitative approach by distributing questionnaires to 385 undergraduate students in Indonesia who are active individual investors and registered with the Kustodian Sentral Efek Indonesia (KSEI). The structural model analysis was conducted using SmartPLS 4, while the moderated mediation test was performed using PROCESS Model 59 in SPSS. Results: The study's results indicate that behavioral bias has a significant adverse effect on risk perception, which in turn hurts the investment decisions of students in Indonesia. Financial literacy is proven to act as an important moderating variable. It can weaken the adverse effect of behavioral bias on risk perception and change the impact of risk perception on investment decisions to be positive at high levels of financial literacy. In addition, risk perception mediates the relationship between behavioral bias and investment decisions, especially at moderate levels of financial literacy. Novelty: The findings underscore the importance of integrating behavioral aspects in developing financial literacy curricula in higher education to equip students with the cognitive and affective competencies needed for rational investment decision-making. This study contributes to the behavioral finance literature and offers practical and theoretical contributions for educators and policymakers in designing contextual and behavioral-based financial literacy education for students.

Abstract

Objective: To enhance nurses' global competitiveness, this study evaluates a hybrid TOEFL preparation program for nursing students at STIKES Banyuwangi. Using the Context, Input, Process, Product (CIPP) model, the evaluation assesses program components to identify effectiveness, relevance, and areas for improvement. Method: This study employed a mixed-methods approach involving 86 nursing students and four academic staff. Data were collected through questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and documentation and then analysed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Results: The program significantly improved students’ average TOEFL scores, particularly in reading and listening. Context evaluation confirmed the program's relevance and students' appreciation of the hybrid format's flexibility. However, input analysis revealed a lack of nursing-specific content, and process evaluation showed inconsistent online engagement and inadequate feedback. Despite these issues, the program prepared most students to achieve their academic and professional goals. Novelty:This study addresses a crucial research gap by evaluating a hybrid TOEFL preparation program for nursing students. Unlike previous research that focused on English language learners in general and used an offline format, this study offers unique insights into the needs, motivations, and challenges of nursing students in a hybrid model. Furthermore, the comprehensive CIPP model provides a holistic and in-depth evaluation of all program stages. The model explicitly articulates how context evaluation validates program relevance, while Input and Process analyses accurately pinpoint weaknesses, such as a lack of nursing-specific content and inadequate online feedback. Product evaluation quantitatively links these deficiencies to learning outcomes, providing a clear roadmap for targeted, evidence-based program improvement.

Abstract

Objective: The relationship between empathetic communication by teachers and student learning motivation requires empirical verification in the context of traditional Islamic education, particularly in Qur'an memorization programs that emphasize an authoritative approach. This study addresses the knowledge gap regarding the motivational dynamics in Qur'an memorization learning, which has not been comprehensively documented. Methods: The study employed a cross-sectional survey design involving 83 students aged 15–18 years from four tahfidz institutions in the city and regency of Bandung through purposive sampling. Result: Empathetic communication was measured using the Dyadic Interpersonal Communication Scale (α = 0.916), while motivation was assessed using the Quranic Memorization Motivation Scale, which includes intrinsic (α = 0.843) and extrinsic (α = 0.811) dimensions. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted with demographic variables controlled according to Self-Determination Theory. The data indicate that empathetic communication predicts intrinsic motivation (β = -0.261, p = 0.015) and extrinsic motivation (β = -0.469, p < 0.001). The final regression models explained 35.8% of the variance in intrinsic motivation and 51.9% in extrinsic motivation; however, these R2 values reflect the combined contribution of empathetic communication and the controlled demographic variables (age, and memorization completion) with empathetic communication demonstrating a significant incremental effect beyond the controls. Novelty: These findings differ from Western educational theories, which predict a positive relationship, indicating that cultural context mediates the empathy-motivation relationship in traditional Islamic education. The study confirms the importance of adapting pedagogical approaches that consider local cultural values to optimize learning motivation in tahfidz programs.
