The research method applied is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. Thematic analysis technique was used to analyze the data obtained. The results showed that adolescents' knowledge about reproductive health is still limited and diverse.

Factors that contribute to risky behavior include lack of comprehensive sexual education, peer pressure, and limited access to reproductive health services. The conclusion of this study highlights the importance of improving comprehensive reproductive health education at school and within the family. In addition, easier and more youth-friendly access to reproductive health services is needed. These effects are expected to reduce risky behaviors and improve overall adolescent reproductive health.

Abstract

This research examines the relationship between Gross Domestic Product (GDP), interest rates and house prices on mortgages in Indonesia. Using the dynamic ECM Domowitz-Elbadawi method, this research explores the short and long term relationships between these variables. House prices are measured using the composite Residential Property Price Index in the primary market. The research results show that GDP has a positive and significant effect on mortgage distribution in the short term. On the other hand, in the long term, both interest rates and house prices have a negative and significant influence on mortgage distribution. These findings are valuable for strategic decision making in property investment and policy formulation, suggesting that increasing GDP can boost mortgage distribution, while managing interest rates and house prices is important for long-term stability.

Abstract

In foreign trade, exchange rates are one of the big factors that make a big difference. And although each country has its own currency, they all have different monetary values. To show how much one country's currency is worth compared to another country's currency, we need a measure called the exchange rate. The aim of this research is to find out how the exchange rate is related to things such as the amount of money in circulation, non-oil and gas exports, the balance of payments, and Indonesia's benchmark interest rate. A multiple regression analysis model was used to conduct the research. This research shows that the IDR/USD Exchange Rate is closely related to Indonesia's Balance of Payments, Money Supply (M2), Non-Oil and Gas Exports, and Reference Interest Rates. This relationship is real and good.
