Abstract

This study examines the effect of party identification (party-ID) on split-ticket voting behavior in the 2019 Simultaneous Presidential and Legislative Elections in West Sumatra Province, Indonesia. Split-ticket voting refers to the behavior of voters who split their choices between a political party in the legislative election and a presidential candidate from a different coalition in the executive election. Using a quantitative approach based on a field survey of 800 respondents, the findings reveal a significant negative relationship between party-ID and split-ticket voting. The stronger the voter’s identification with a particular party, the lower the likelihood of engaging in vote-splitting. These results align with the classic theory proposed in The American Voter and underscore the role of partisan affiliation as a key determinant of voting behavior. The study also highlights the contextual dynamics of Indonesia’s multiparty system, where weak party-ID contributes to the rise of pragmatic and candidate-centered voting patterns.

Abstract

Background: Tinea incognito is a dermatophyte infection with atypical clinical features caused by inappropriate use of topical or systemic corticosteroids. It often mimics other dermatoses, particularly psoriasis, leading to delayed diagnosis and inappropriate management. Misuse of steroids may mask inflammation while allowing fungal proliferation and dissemination. Case Presentation: A 60-year-old male farmer presented with a two-week history of pruritic, thick, scaly erythematous plaques involving the chest, abdomen, back, and upper arms, accompanied by fever, myalgia, and malaise. Initially, the patient noticed mildly pruritic erythematous patches one month prior and self-treated with topical dexamethasone, resulting in temporary relief but progressive worsening. He also reported long-term oral dexamethasone use (0.5 mg daily for 10 years). Lesions evolved into widespread plaques with thick scales and pustules, clinically resembling pustular psoriasis. KOH examination of skin scrapings revealed long septate hyphae, confirming dermatophytosis, while Gram staining was negative for bacteria. Laboratory findings were unremarkable. The diagnosis of extensive tinea incognito with concurrent viral infection was established. The patient was treated with oral itraconazole (200 mg/day) and topical ketoconazole for four weeks, showing significant clinical improvement by the third week. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of considering tinea incognito in steroid-modified dermatoses mimicking psoriasis. Early mycological examination is essential to avoid misdiagnosis and inappropriate steroid use. Rational antifungal therapy leads to favorable outcomes. Keywords: tinea incognito; corticosteroid abuse; psoriasis mimicry; dermatophytosis

Abstract

The development of the digital era has had a significant impact on Indonesia's social, economic, and national defense structures. Digitalization has accelerated the flow of information while simultaneously introducing a new spectrum of threats, from disinformation and cyberwarfare to ideological infiltration that have the potential to undermine the foundations of the nation. In the context of moving towards a Golden Indonesia 2045, an adaptive defense strategy is needed, particularly in the land defense dimension as the vanguard of the overall defense system. This study aims to analyze strategic threats and challenges in the digital era and formulate a relevant land defense strategy to strengthen national resilience and national identity. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with an analysis of strategic literature and national defense policy. The study results indicate that land defense plays a crucial role in maintaining territorial stability, strengthening nationalist values, and empowering communities as reserve and support components. The land defense strategy needs to be directed at three main aspects: (1) digital transformation in the command and control system; (2) increasing personnel capacity through digital literacy and ideological awareness; and (3) strengthening synergy between the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), regional governments, and the community in maintaining land sovereignty amidst global dynamics. Thus, strengthening the foundations of nationalism in the digital era depends not only on technological advancements but also on a robust, intelligent land defense preparedness rooted in national values. This approach provides a strategic foundation for Indonesia in facing complex threats toward its ambitious vision of Golden Indonesia 2045.

Abstract

Detecting pain in infants is a significant challenge in the medical field because infants are unable to verbally express pain, meaning healthcare professionals must rely on subjective observations of behaviour and physiological responses. With the advancement of artificial intelligence technology, various studies have developed automated systems based on machine learning to detect pain through the analysis of facial expressions, crying sounds, and physiological signals such as heart rate and Electrodermal Activity (EDA). This study aims to identify the developments, methods, and technological trends in pain detection in infants through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The research process followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, with data sources from Google Scholar, Scopus, Crossref, and OpenAlex covering the period 2015–2025. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 31 relevant studies were identified for analysis. The analysis covered data types, Machine Learning methods, and quality assessment using the GRADE approach. The results of the review indicate that the most commonly used algorithms are Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forests, and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN). Overall, the application of Machine Learning shows great potential in improving the objectivity and accuracy of pain detection in infants, although further research is still required to develop a more optimal and clinically applicable system.

Abstract

The Transformation of village governance after the enactment of Undang-Undang Nomor 3 Tahun 2024 in respect of Villages has opened up space for strengthening village autonomy and encouraging the implementation of Good Governance principles at the local level. In this context, the Collaborative Governance approach is a relevant conceptual framework for examining multi-actor involvement in the public decision-making process in a participatory, responsive, and inclusive manner. This study seeks to analyze how Collaborative Governance practices are carried out in the governance of Tegal Harum Village, as well as how the manner in which local Tri Hita Karana values are incorporated into the collaborative process among the village government, traditional villages, communities, and the private sectors. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, literature review, and document analysis. The informant determination technique used is purposive sampling consisting of representatives of the village government, traditional villages, communities, and the private sector. This research is expected to show the collaboration carried out in the governance of Tegal Harum Village, as well as the integration of local Tri Hita Karana values in the collaborative process between the village government, traditional village, community, and private sector.

Abstract

Modern tourism competition requires destinations to develop clear and distinctive identities. East Flores Regency has long been recognized as a religious tourism destination, particularly through the annual Semana Santa celebration, which attracts large numbers of domestic and international visitors. This study adopts a constructivist qualitative approach using a case study design, with data collected through semi-structured interviews, field and social media observations, and document analysis. It examines the processes of formulation, production, institutionalization, and internalization of East Flores’ identity as a cultural center of the Lamaholot community, alongside its distinctive maritime attractions promoted through the Fantastic East Flores program. The findings show that “Fantastic East Flores” functions as an expansion rather than a replacement of the established religious identity. However, the branding strategy relies more on internal potential mapping than on systematic market analysis. As a result, the implementation of cultural and maritime identity remains inconsistent and continues to be dominated by religious narratives. Although the program has been incorporated into regional policy, its adoption across institutions remains non-binding. Consequently, the new identity has not yet been fully internalized in tourists’ perceptions.
