Abstract

This study examines the influence of brand ambassador, brand image, social media marketing, and word of mouth on students' purchasing decisions for Samsung smartphones at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Wijayakusuma Purwokerto. The study used a quantitative associative approach with multiple linear regression analysis. The sample size was determined using the Lemeshow formula, yielding a minimum of 97 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via a structured questionnaire and analyzed using validity, reliability, classical assumption, and hypothesis tests. The regression equation obtained was Y = 2.702 + 0.174X₁ + 0.300X₂ + 0.297X₃ + 0.290X₄ + e, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.608, indicating that the four independent variables explain 60.8% of the variance in purchasing decisions. The F-test result (F = 14.081 > F-table = 2.471, sig. = 0.000) confirmed the model's overall significance. The t-test results showed that brand ambassador (t = 2.151), brand image (t = 2.530), social media marketing (t = 3.568), and word of mouth (t = 3.794) each exceeded the critical t-table value of 1.662 with significance levels below 0.05, indicating that all four variables have a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions. These findings suggest that Samsung should continue to leverage credible brand ambassadors, consistent brand positioning, engaging social media content, and positive consumer-to-consumer communication to strengthen purchasing decisions among student consumers.

Abstract

Digital archive management requires rapid retrieval, visible archive status and location, controlled access, and traceable workflow decisions. Previous document-tracking studies have used code-based identifiers, but transparent functional validation of integrated archive workflows remains limited. This study developed and functionally validated a Quick Response Code-based archive search and tracking system for BPS Kota Cirebon. An applied software-development design with iterative prototyping was used. Thirty requirements-based black-box cases were executed on 24-25 July 2026 using synthetic records, one administrator account, one regular-user account, a Windows computer, and an Android device on the same local network. The initial test produced 24 passes and six failures involving attachment storage, approval processing, mobile code access, notifications, audit logging, and PDF export. After targeted corrections, all six cases passed on retest, yielding 30 final passes and a 100.0% defect-resolution rate. The study contributes a traceable functional-validation approach that connects identified defects, corrective actions, and retest evidence across integrated archive workflows. The tested build met all specified functional scenarios, while actual gains in retrieval time and employee workload require field evaluation.

Abstract

This study assesses global publication patterns on embodied habitus in women’s choreography using a Dimensions-based bibliometric performance analysis for 2021–2026. The research uses a quantitative-descriptive approach with bibliometric analysis covering annual publication trends, author productivity, institutional and country distribution, co-authorship networks, and keyword co-occurrence. Data were extracted using the Boolean query embodied AND choreography AND women, then analyzed with the help of VOSviewer and Biblioshiny to produce network visualizations and scientific performance indicators. The results show a progressive growth of publications with a peak in productivity in 2024. Global North countries dominate geographic distribution, while collaboration structures remain fragmented within several regional clusters. Thematic analysis identifies the dominance of embodiment, feminism, and choreographic practices, alongside the emergence of intersectionality and digitalization as new development directions. This study concludes that the field is in a consolidation phase, with potential for significant thematic and geographic expansion.

Abstract

Coastal villages possess immense geo-economic potential due to abundant marine resources, yet they persistently face chronic socio-economic disparities and intensifying ecological vulnerabilities. While macro-level sustainable development frameworks exist, their successful realization heavily hinges on localized, micro-level strategies. However, prior scientific inquiries often evaluate developmental determinants in isolation, leaving a critical empirical gap in understanding the synergistic effects between demographic shifts, financial architectures, physical connectivity, ecological preservation, fiscal governance, and social networks. To address this, this study aims to comprehensively evaluate the multi-dimensional determinants of coastal village development, emphasizing the role of financial inclusion. The research utilizes a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis guided by the PRISMA framework, analyzing 258 eligible peer-reviewed articles published between 2021 and 2026 retrieved from the Scopus database. Employing bibliometric mapping and keyword network clustering, the results reveal a significant paradigm shift in rural development discourse, transitioning from fundamental localized capacity building toward digitally integrated and sustainable regional planning. Key determinants driving coastal resilience include human capital (education), digital acceleration, and institutional frameworks, with empirical synthesis indicating a massive valuation gap between global ecological assets and local economic capacities. In conclusion, financial inclusion acts as a vital strategic catalyst for rural stability, and robust village-level institutions are necessary to internalize ecological values. Ultimately, this study contributes to policy development by demonstrating that securing long-term economic stability and climate resilience in vulnerable coastal frontiers requires targeted, place-based government interventions that synchronize financial accessibility, digital empowerment, and educational enhancement.

Abstract

Fuel price adjustments by PT Pertamina, an Indonesian dominant state enterprise, significantly affect consumer purchasing power. Previous literature focuses on localized fraud, leaving the dual framework analysis of national pricing policies under consumer and antimonopoly regulations underexplored. This study aims to analyze the consumer protection and competition law implications of Pertamina fuel pricing policies. Employing a normative legal research design, the study utilizes statutory, case, and conceptual approaches. Data from legal materials are analyzed qualitatively through deductive logic and teleological interpretation. The findings indicate that unilateral pricing mechanisms challenge consumer rights to accurate information. Furthermore, while macroeconomic pricing of unsubsidized fuel follows global markets and rarely constitutes an abuse of dominant position, related operational allegations like fuel blending and tender discrimination raise significant legal concerns. In conclusion, current legal remedies face severe implementation barriers due to fragmented authority and heavy proof burdens. The study recommends preventive mechanisms through structured public consultation and proposes harmonized litigation instruments for future legal reform.

Abstract

Background: Public-sector audits are expected to strengthen accountability and fiscal management, but their relationship with regional development remains unclear, particularly when audit intensity is positioned as an intervening construct. This study examines whether perceived audit intensity mediates the associations between fiscal-economic conditions and regional development in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 539 officials purposively selected from 26 provincial, district, and municipal government entities. Data were collected using an 81-item five-point Likert questionnaire and analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling. Specific indirect effects were assessed using the delta method. Results: Economic growth was positively associated with regional development (β = 0.709, p < 0.001). Economic growth (β = 0.280, p = 0.001), local revenue (β = 0.294, p < 0.001), investment (β = 0.134, p = 0.036), and accountability and effectiveness (β = 0.562, p < 0.001) were positively associated with perceived audit intensity. Conversely, perceived audit intensity was negatively associated with regional development (β = −0.261, p = 0.008). Significant negative indirect associations were observed for economic growth, local revenue, and accountability and effectiveness, but not for investment. The model explained 71.4% of the variance in regional development. Conclusion: Perceived audit intensity did not constitute a positive pathway between fiscal-economic conditions and regional development. Its developmental value may depend on whether audit findings are translated into corrective action and integrated into planning and budgeting. Given the cross-sectional design, purposive sampling, and perceptual measures, the indirect effects represent concurrent statistical associations rather than causal mediation.

Abstract

Financial conglomerates hold the majority of Indonesia’s financial system assets. The recent enactment of Law No. 4 of 2023, alongside OJK Regulation No. 30 of 2024, has significantly widened the supervisory perimeter from four to thirteen categories of financial services institutions. Despite these massive regulatory shifts, whether this structural policy pays for itself in performance terms remains empirically untested. Therefore, this study aims to investigate whether the financial conglomerates policy raises banking profitability and efficiency in Indonesia when the macroeconomic environment is held constant. The research employs a dynamic panel analysis of fifteen conglomerate groups observed quarterly from 2019Q1 to 2025Q2 (315 usable observations), estimated via fixed effects with standard errors clustered at the group level. Dependent variables include return on assets, net interest margin, and the operating-expense-to-operating-income ratio. Conglomeration policy is proxied by group asset share and group membership share, supported by macroeconomic control variables. Furthermore, a PRISMA-based systematic literature review of eleven Scopus-indexed studies complements the estimation. The results show that the asset-share proxy carries a negative and weakly significant coefficient on return on assets and is statistically indistinguishable from zero for margin and cost efficiency. By contrast, the membership proxy is positively and significantly associated with return on assets, indicating that perimeter breadth and asset concentration operate through opposite channels. Ultimately, the findings conclude a resilience-profitability trade-off: the conglomerate structure that improves credit risk outcomes simultaneously compresses returns. As a policy implication, financial supervisors should price this trade-off explicitly rather than assume that prudential consolidation is performance-neutral.

Abstract

Background: Digital platforms increasingly mediate welfare, services, finance, labour, and entrepreneurship, while research on platform power remains fragmented and Global-North dominated. Gap: Platform political economy, algorithmic governance, data extraction, and inclusion are rarely integrated with development theory or Global South evidence. Objective: This study maps these gaps and develops a structural synthesis. Method: An interpretive systematic review of 30 Scopus-retrieved scholarly publications (journal articles and scholarly books/book chapters) published in 2010–2025 used PRISMA reporting and thematic–geographic coding. Results: Algorithmic governance dominated (18; 60%); resistance (9; 30%), infrastructure (8; 27%), and data colonialism/digital sovereignty (7; 23%) followed. Five studies (17%) engaged development theory; four (13%) focused directly on the Global South. Conclusion: The review develops a four-dimensional typology rather than a validated causal model. Implications: The framework extends dependency, developmental-state, and capability perspectives and guides future empirical testing.

Abstract

The Shopee app is widely used in Indonesia, making it one of the fastest-growing e-commerce marketplaces. This study examines how perceived value influences electronic word-of-mouth (E-WoM) and brand loyalty, and investigates the mediating role of brand loyalty among users of Shopee's gamification features. This study employs a quantitative methodology, applying Hair's formula to analyze data collected from 180 active Shopee consumers via a questionnaire. The study analyzed the data using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings indicate that brand loyalty and E-WoM are positively and significantly influenced by perceived value, which encompasses utilitarian, hedonic, and social value. Furthermore, this study shows that brand loyalty mediates the effect of perceived value on E-WoM, meaning that enhancing users' perceived value can strengthen customer loyalty and encourage the tendency to share information online.

Abstract

Nickel downstreaming has become a public agenda that brings together industrial development narratives with environmental concerns, public health, governance, employment, occupational safety, and social impacts. This study analyzes the agenda-building process within the corporate communication strategy of PT Indonesia Weda Bay Industrial Park (IWIP) when responding to nickel downstreaming issues in the media. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach and a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with four IWIP communication practitioners; content analysis of JATAM and Mongabay as the context for external issue agendas; 13 IWIP owned-media posts; 152 media placement publications; and corporate communication documents from January to July 2025. The findings show that IWIP's agenda-building process consists of six interconnected stages: monitoring external issue agendas, mapping issue substance and escalation, selecting the response agenda, coordinating cross-functionally and validating data, constructing corporate issue attributes and messages, and distributing them through owned media and media placement. The company does not respond directly to every issue but selects issues based on relevance, impact, organizational authority, data readiness, and communication risk. Owned media sustains the corporate agenda through representations of activities and programs, while media placement broadens reach and situates issues within the contexts of downstreaming, occupational safety, employment, sustainability, and development. The findings indicate that corporate responses to media issues are not merely message-delivery activities, but a selective, data-based, non-confrontational, and long-term corporate agenda-building process.
