Abstract

The study examined the effect of domestic debt on economic development in Nigeria. Specifically, the study examined the effect of ways and means loan, treasury bills and treasury bond on human development index. The research adopted ex-post facto research design. Secondary data were collected from Debt Management Office, National Bureau of Statistics and Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical Bulletin spanning from 2000 to 2023. The econometric technique of Dynamic Least Squares, Augmented Dicky Fuller, Unit Root Test, and Johansen Co-integration test were employed in the data analysis. It was found that ways and means loans and treasury bonds have significant positive effect on economic development in Nigeria while treasury bills have a negative but non-significant effect on economic development in Nigeria. By implication, when long-term debt instrument is properly utilized, it brings about positive development. Therefore, the study recommended that the National Assembly must take its oversight responsibilities more seriously and ensure that Ways and Means loans are strictly allocated to productive, growth-enhancing expenditures. This is essential to avoid fueling inflation and triggering macroeconomic instability. Strengthening fiscal discipline through vigilant oversight will help safeguard the economy while promoting sustainable development.

Abstract

This study examined the relationship between digital device usage and cyber-aggression among Indonesian young adults, focusing on platform-specific patterns and gender differences. Using a descriptive-correlational design, 561 participants aged 18-35 completed the Cyber-aggression Types Questionnaire and Digital Device Usage Questionnaire, measuring seven aggression types and usage across eleven digital platforms. Results revealed flaming (26.9%) and trolling (20.0%) as the most prevalent cyber-aggression forms. A significant positive correlation emerged between overall digital device usage and cyber-aggression. Platform-specific analysis showed particularly strong correlations with video gaming, online gambling, dating apps, cybersex platforms, and anonymous sharing websites, whereas mainstream platforms like social networking sites and instant messaging showed weak or non-significant correlations. Gender differences were substantial: males reported significantly higher frequencies across all cyber-aggression types and more intensive use of gaming, gambling, and anonymous platforms. Females showed higher engagement with social networking and media sharing platforms. These findings highlight how cyber-aggression manifests differently across digital environments and is influenced by both platform characteristics and gender-based usage patterns. The study underscores the importance of moving beyond generalized digital usage measures to consider specific platform affordances and gendered behaviors when addressing online aggression. Implications include developing targeted digital literacy programs, creating platform designs that balance privacy with accountability, and implementing gender-sensitive intervention strategies to effectively reduce cyber-aggression in Indonesia's evolving digital landscape.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze how Kompas.com frames mobilization within the Social Movement Action of August 28–29, 2025. The study examines media construction through a framing analysis approach using four Kompas.com articles that implicitly address mobilization processes, action dynamics, and the actors involved. The data consist of online news texts selected based on their relevance to the issue of mass mobilization. The analysis identifies the structure of news discourse through the elements of diagnostic framing, prognostic framing, and motivational framing to understand how the media define problems, present solutions, and construct collective motivation in the context of social movements. The results show that mobilization by labor groups and university students is framed as a legitimate response to structural issues, while student mobilization is framed as a potential disruption that needs to be prevented. The structure of the coverage highlights differing emphases on actors deemed responsible, ranging from the government and police apparatus to organizers of protest calls. The main finding of this study indicates that Kompas.com consistently assigns different levels of legitimacy to mobilization based on group identity and underscores the media’s role in shaping public perceptions of social movements.

Abstract

This study investigated the effect of the Classroom Meeting learning model integrated with Ultabi media on students’ learning outcomes at SMA Nasional Makassar. A pre-experimental design employing a One-Group Pretest–Post-test approach was utilized. The participants consisted of eleventh-grade students (Class XI IPA 1) selected through purposive sampling. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and paired-sample t-test analysis. The findings revealed a substantial improvement in students’ learning outcomes. The pretest results indicated that all students (100%) were categorized at a very low achievement level, with a mean score of 64.03. After the intervention, the post-test results showed that 57.7% of students achieved a high achievement category, with a mean score increasing to 78.46. Inferential analysis demonstrated that the calculated t-value (t = 9.008) exceeded the critical t-value (1.71), with a significance value of 0.0001 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant improvement. These findings suggest that integrating the Classroom Meeting learning model with Ultabi media significantly enhances students’ academic achievement. The study highlights the potential of collaborative and technology-supported learning strategies in improving classroom engagement and learning performance.

Abstract

Understanding the chosen exit paths of graduates is essential for evaluating the effectiveness of the SHS program and guiding future curriculum development. This study aims to trace the exit paths of senior high school graduates from a higher education institution in Ozamiz City, Misamis Occidental, focusing on their progression into tertiary education, employment, entrepreneurship, and middle-level skills development. The study employed a quantitative approach using a descriptive research design. Data were collected from 371 randomly selected graduates using questionnaires. The responses were analyzed using statistical techniques such as the T-test, mean, percentage, standard deviation, and frequency. The results reveal that most of the respondents were female, primarily aged between 20-21 years old, with a significant number coming from families earning less than 10,000 currency units. A majority of graduates pursued higher education, while a smaller portion engaged in employment, entrepreneurship, or middle-level skills development. The study found that the senior high school program was perceived as effective in preparing students for higher education and employment and most effective in fostering entrepreneurship. However, while the program is rated as effective in middle-level skills development, it receives the lowest rating among the constructs evaluated. Notably, no significant differences were found in the perceived effectiveness of the program when grouped according to profile. The senior high school program is generally effective in achieving its educational goals.

Abstract

This study examined the effect of firm revenue base on the corporate value of listed food and beverage firms in Nigeria, using market value added as the measure of corporate value. The study adopted an ex-post facto research design and relied on secondary data obtained from the annual reports and financial statements of twelve purposively selected firms listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group between 2012 and 2024. Panel estimated generalised least squares regression analysis were used to analyze the data. The findings revealed that firm revenue base has a significant and positive effect on market value added at 5% significance level, indicating that increases in revenue enhance the corporate value of firms (? = 0.762651; p = 0.0000). In conclusion, firms with stable and growing revenue streams are better positioned to generate shareholder wealth. The study recommends that management should implement aggressive but sustainable revenue expansion strategies, such as product diversification, market penetration, and pricing optimization, and also give a special attention to data-driven marketing, customer retention programs, and investments in efficient distribution channels, as these initiatives can significantly boost revenue while controlling operational costs.

Abstract

This research presents analysis of the Indonesian Dark Social Movement which was institutionalized as a digital resistance to the 2025 TNI Bill considered to jeopardize civilian supremacy and democratic principles. Initially, the movement was formed by public dissatisfaction with the military's growing role in the civilian sector and the opaque legislative process, then it evolved into a digital movement with a common identity, communication strategies, and organized cross-platform coordination. Through qualitative approaches via documentation studies and content analysis of a variety of digital materials, the research draws a map of the dynamics of digital resource mobilization, narrative formation, and coordination that characterize the movement's institutionalization process. The results indicate that Indonesia Gelap was able to convert sporadic actions into a structured movement through symbolic consistency, internal division of roles, strategic use of digital platforms, and partnering with civil society networks. Nonetheless, this evolution faced difficulties in the form of government repression, misinformation, and inconsistencies in digital involvement. This research demonstrates that the digital environment is not only the outlet of people’s grievances but also the place where the adaptive and sustainable movement institutions are formed and this has consequences for social movements' overall strategies in the day of digital democracy.

Abstract

The Banda Islands, located in Maluku Province, Indonesia, are historically known as the “Spice Islands” due to their central role in the global nutmeg trade. Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt.) is not only a key economic commodity but also an essential part of the cultural identity and historical heritage of the local community. This study employs a qualitative approach using historical research (historiography) methods to examine the development of nutmeg agro-tourism in the Banda Islands District from 2005 to 2024. Historical research systematically reconstructs past events through stages of heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography, enabling an understanding of the social, economic, and cultural dynamics influencing agro-tourism development. Tourism serves as a significant driver of economic growth, generating social and cultural benefits when properly managed. The development of nutmeg agro-tourism in Banda Besar highlights the region’s historical legacy while promoting community income and regional revenue. Traditional post-harvest processing practices and local cultural expressions further enrich the tourism experience, strengthening the integration of heritage preservation and sustainable economic development in the Banda Islands.

Abstract

This study analyzed the strategic modernization of Pituffik Space Base within the context of deteriorating Arctic geopolitics and the emergence of hypersonic threats. Utilizing Stephen Krasner’s framework of Organized Hypocrisy, the research examined the contradiction between the formal recognition of Danish sovereignty and the actual strategic behavior of the United States between 2020-2026. A qualitative analysis of defense agreements, diplomatic documents, and infrastructure projects was conducted to identify discrepancies between stated norms and operational realities. The results demonstrated that the United States maintained de jure sovereignty through symbolic acts, such as renaming the facility, while simultaneously executing unilateral military expansion and political intervention. The findings indicated that this decoupling allowed for a sovereignty of permissions, where the host nation retained legal title while the external power secured total operational access. The study concluded that this arrangement minimized transaction costs for the great power while preserving the diplomatic legitimacy of the semi-sovereign territory.
