Abstract

The prevalence of child stunting in Indonesia in 2023 at the national level from 24.5% to 21.6%. Despite declining, the figure is still relatively high, as 28 out of 100 babies suffer from stunting. The study aims to predict stunting risk factors in children under the age of 5. They use bivariate and multivariate logistic regression to identify significant factors associated with stunting risk. Stunting prevalence in Batu Bara District of North Sumatra Province was 18.35% out of 28.716 children under 5 years of age (967 children very short and 3,944 young children). The study was conducted on 100 households with brief and concise children living in rural areas. The results of the study showed maternal education (OR 5.27; 95% CI 1.04-5.62); low maternal nutritional status during pregnancy (OR 2.57, 95% CI 1.22-5.89); formula milk delivery less than 6 months (OR 3.47; 95% CI 1.40-8.28); low birth weight of less than 2500 grams (OR 4.94; 95% CI 1.30-18.80); lack of access to drinkable water (or 3.14; 95% CI 1.29-7.65); low family wealth index (OR 0.13; 95% CI 0.05-0.32). Environmental and household factors have a significant relationship with stunting risk control. Multilateral efforts from the level of family empowerment, increasing the role of health services, and improving nutritional status are access to public health status.

Abstract

The current study aimed to assess the validity of the engagement instrument during online learning in mathematics education. This study used a survey research design as its approach. The current research participants were 203 Generation Z students in West Nusa Tenggara Barat, Indonesia. Convenience sampling techniques were used to assess who had completed the online survey. Three procedures were used to analyze the data in this research: exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and Rasch analysis. EFA revealed that the online engagement instrument had two sub-components: behavioral engagement and emotional engagement. At the same time, the CFA results showed that the model fit indices established the first- and second-order model's two-factor structure. Finally, the results showed that the online engagement instrument’s item and person reliability were good. The findings indicate a potential for enhancement even though the Rasch analysis largely supported the results of EFA and CFA. The current research’s novelty is that it provides a valid and reliable instrument to assess student`s engagement during online learning in a mathematical education context. Using the current instrument can ensure the accuracy, reliability, and credibility of research on student engagement during online learning in mathematics education.

Abstract

The training that has been attended by village officials so far has not yielded optimal results. Meanwhile, training from various overseeing organizations is conducted annually. This study aims to investigate the role of motivation and perceived organizational support in mediating and moderating the impact of training on competence. The unit of analysis for this research is the village officials serving in all villages in Central Java Province, with a sample of 468 village officials determined using the Slovin method. Questionnaires were distributed based on the area random sampling method, and the data collected were analyzed using the SEM-PLS method with the WARP-PLS model. The results of the study show that both motivation and perceived organizational support mediate and moderate the impact of training on competence. Relevant organizations, including village governments, village empowerment services, and the Ministry of Villages, need to develop sustainable training policies and programs for village officials that are evaluated periodically.

Abstract

Floods are increasingly recognized as one of the most destructive natural disasters, driven by urban expansion, climate change, and unregulated development. This is particularly true in developing countries, where rapid urbanization has increased impervious surfaces, amplifying flood risks in urban areas. This study focuses on Albania, evaluating urban resilience against floods through the lens of water-related disaster data. Using a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) approach, specifically the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), the research assesses flood vulnerability and resilience in rapidly urbanizing regions. Integrating AHP and TOPSIS with mixed methods introduces a novel approach, offering a comprehensive evaluation framework for flood risk management. The findings highlight critical vulnerabilities and suggest that targeted urban planning and disaster mitigation efforts can enhance resilience. Future research could incorporate climate projections and granular urban data, supporting a more adaptive flood management strategy.

Abstract

The performance of village officials has always been a focal point for various parties because the foundation of urban and national progress lies in rural development. However, the performance of village officials in Indonesia is still not optimal. This study aims to investigate the roles of job satisfaction, organizational culture, and perceived organizational support as mediators and moderators in the relationship between competence and performance. The research involved 368 village officials across 19 regencies in West Java province, selected using the inverse root square method. Data collection was conducted through questionnaire distribution using area random sampling methods. Data analysis was performed using Warp PLS method. The findings indicate that job satisfaction successfully mediates the relationship between competence and performance. Organizational culture and perceived organizational support significantly moderate the influence of competence on performance. Village government bodies, village community empowerment agencies, and the Ministry of Villages need to formulate policies that support improving job satisfaction, foster a healthy organizational culture, and provide facilitative support, both in infrastructure and in developing hard and soft skills for village officials.

Abstract

This research aimed to analyze the influence of trade openness, ICT, per capita income, and Human Development Index on environmental quality in Upper-Middle Income countries in the short and long term and how per capita income influenced environmental quality in the U-shaped EKC hypothesis in Upper-Middle Income countries over the 1990-2020 periods using the VECM Panel analysis. Several findings were revealed in this research. First, the coefficient of trade openness in the long-term and short-term on environmental quality was positive and statistically significant at the 1% level. Second, the relationship between ICT and environmental quality had a positive influence in the short term and a negative influence in the long term. Third, the relationship between per capita income and environmental quality positively influenced the long- and short-term. In these findings, an increase in per capita income increased carbon dioxide, which caused a decrease in environmental quality and emerged an inverted U relationship in the long- and short-term of the EKC hypothesis in UMI countries, with the turning point in the short-term being US$ 728,530 and in the long-term US$ 772,839. Finally, the Human Development Index in this research positively influences environmental quality in the short- and long-term. The outcomes of this study have considerable Policy implications regarding trade openness policy formulation to reduce environmental degradation, especially in Upper Middle-Income Countries.

Abstract

This study aims to enhance automated age prediction from facial images, a task with significant potential in security, law enforcement, and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). While age estimation has seen progress, it remains a challenging problem due to the diverse factors influencing facial aging, such as genetics, environment, lifestyle, and facial expressions. These variations result in individuals of the same chronological age looking markedly different. Most existing age estimation methods rely on computationally intensive pre-trained models, often treated as "black boxes" with predefined input sizes and limited flexibility. To address these limitations, we propose using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for age prediction. Our approach combines classification and regression techniques to predict age more accurately. We applied our model to publicly available datasets, including FGNET, Adience, APPA-REAL, UTKFace, and All-Age-Face, encompassing images from constrained and unconstrained environments. The proposed CNN model was evaluated against existing pre-trained models, demonstrating comparable performance in age prediction tasks. Both classification and regression results underscored the model's accuracy, offering additional benefits in reduced computational complexity, increased flexibility, and adaptability. This study introduces a CNN-based approach as a viable alternative to pre-trained models for automated age prediction. It offers competitive accuracy while addressing critical limitations of current models, such as computational demands and lack of flexibility, thus contributing a more efficient solution for age estimation tasks in various real-world applications.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the movements of Islamic stock markets in ten selected OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) countries in relation to Covid-19 cases, providing a comprehensive analysis of market behavior during the pandemic. The countries—Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, Indonesia, Oman, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, and Bahrain—were chosen based on their large Muslim populations. Data was collected over a one-year period from January 1, 2020, to January 31, 2021, analyzing the relationship between Covid-19 cases and Islamic stock market indices. The study employed co-integration tests to identify long-term relationships and the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) to explore short-run dynamics. The co-integration test results show a significant long-run relationship between Covid-19 cases and Islamic stock markets in most of the selected OIC countries. Specifically, the Shariah indices in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, and Bahrain have a positive and significant relationship with Covid-19 cases. Conversely, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and Oman exhibit a negative long-term relationship with Covid-19 cases, suggesting a different market response. These results suggest that countries with diversified economies, particularly those relying on natural resources such as oil and agriculture, were more resilient during the pandemic. This study provides novel insights into the unique responses of Islamic stock markets in OIC countries during the pandemic, highlighting regional differences in market behavior and recovery. It suggests that despite the global economic downturn, OIC countries present attractive investment opportunities, particularly due to their swift recovery and resource-based economies, offering a robust portfolio for investors during crises.

Abstract

Scale development is essential in testing constructs and variables in social research, including education. Scales that meet the rules of validity and reliability are developed using standardized procedures. This research focuses on scale production to create reliable and valid construct measures to assess teacher knowledge in designing inclusive learning, using three frameworks, namely Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge, Backward Design, and Universal Design for Learning. Research on this issue involves measuring organizational and psychological constructs, which present unique challenges because they are generally unobservable, very abstract, often complex, and may consist of several different components. As a result of this complexity, developing this scale was challenging. The production of this scale followed Boateng et al., and the field test involved 259 pre-service teachers. The Rasch Rating Scale Model analysis was used to test the scale and produced 18 items that have high reliability (0.96). This scale can be used nationally to assess teachers' ability to implement inclusive education. The scale also applies as a teacher self-assessment tool for developing their competence.

Abstract

Misconceptions in fractions, a significant challenge in mathematics education, occur when students' conceptions do not align with scientific conceptions, yet they firmly believe in the correctness of their conceptions. These deeply rooted misconceptions are difficult to eliminate and not easily identified with conventional instruments. Therefore, this study aims to develop a valid and reliable five-tier diagnostic test instrument to identify students' misconceptions about fractions effectively. The design of this development research involves qualitative and quantitative methods using the 4D model (define, design, develop, disseminate). Sixty-eight seventh-grade students were involved in quantitative instrument quality testing; data were analyzed using SPSS. The final result of the development of this instrument was 12 questions declared valid and reliable. Furthermore, the instrument was applied to 30 seventh-grade students in different schools to identify their misconceptions about fractions. Based on the analysis of the combination of students' answers, it was obtained that 36.4% of students understood the concept, 8.9% were in the false positive category, 7.2% were false negative, 9.7% lacked knowledge, and 37.8% had misconceptions. It was found that the most dominant description of misconceptions (33%), namely, students assume that the smaller the denominator of a fraction, the smaller the value of the fraction. Then, it was also found that students' thinking, in general, causes misconceptions to occur. The practical implication of the results of this study is that teachers can use the instrument and identify misconceptions to develop more effective teaching methods, thereby improving mathematics education by helping students avoid and anticipate misconceptions.
