Abstract

Politeness character  are a very important character trait that needs to be optimized from early childhood because they serve as a foundation for children to develop good social skills. The development of politeness character in children is influenced by the family environment, particularly the mother’s role in child rearing. This study aims to analyze the influence of a maternal role modeling and emotional style, which includes emotional coaching and emotional dismissing on the politeness character of preschool aged children in Sunda indigenous villages. This is a quantitative cross-sectional study using non-probability sampling methods, specifically purposive sampling and convenience sampling. Data were collected through in person interviews and questionnaires administered to 100 mothers and preschool aged children, with 26 respondents from Pasir Indigenous Village in Garut and 74 respondents from Naga Indigenous Village in Tasikmalaya. The results of this study indicate that the majority of mothers are at a moderate level in terms of role modeling, emotional coaching, and emotional dismissing. Similarly, the majority of children exhibit a moderate level of politeness character. Based on correlation tests, there is a relationship between family characteristics and children’s politeness character. Maternal role modeling is associated with the maternal emotional style. Furthermore, the maternal emotional style is associated with children’s politeness character. Family and child characteristics effect children’s politeness character. Meanwhile, maternal role modeling and emotional style were not found to effect children’s politeness character. Based on these findings, mothers are advised to adopt a more responsive and communicative parenting style, participate in various educational programs, and set aside dedicated time with their children on a regular basis

Abstract

Despite Indonesia’s large Muslim population and the rapid development of its Islamic economic ecosystem, the limited availability of halal-certified packaged food products produced by MSMEs remains a challenge in meeting the needs of Muslim consumers. This study aimed to examine the effects of religiosity, subjective norms, and halal awareness on purchase decisions regarding halal-labeled packaged food products produced by MSMEs. This cross-sectional study involved 191 Muslim Generation Z consumers in Greater Jakarta who had purchased packaged MSME food products within the previous three months. Respondents were recruited using voluntary sampling and data were collected through an online questionnaire administered via Google Forms. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics in IBM SPSS Statistics version 25.0 and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS. The findings indicate that religiosity and subjective have significant positive effects on purchase decisions regarding halal-labeled MSME food products, whereas halal awareness does not significantly influence purchase decisions. Among the examined, religiosity emerged as the strongest determinant of purchase decisions. These findings suggest that efforts to promote the consumption of halal-labeled products should focus on strengthening consumers' religious understanding to support purchase decisions regarding halal products

Abstract

The high interest of underprivileged high school students in pursuing higher education is not always accompanied by their success in entering university, as they often face greater economic and social challenges, including financial constraints and limited parental support. This study aimed to examine the influence of parental support and self-efficacy on underprivileged students' interest in pursuing higher education. A quantitative approach with an explanatory research design was employed in this study, which was conducted at Master School Depok in May 2025. The participants consisted of 44 tenth-grade students and 26 eleventh-grade students who were selected purposively based on the criterion of having both parents living. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. The results showed that the majority of underprivileged students were categorized as having moderate levels of parental support and self-efficacy. Meanwhile, their interest in pursuing higher education was categorized as low. The findings further revealed that self-efficacy was positively and significantly associated with and influenced students' interest in pursuing higher education. This indicates that higher levels of self-efficacy may contribute to a stronger interest in continuing education at the university level. However, parental support was not found to have a significant effect on students' interest in pursuing higher education. These findings highlight the importance of developing strategies and providing support from various sources to enhance the self-efficacy of underprivileged students, thereby fostering greater interest in pursuing higher education.

Abstract

This study aims to describe consumer behavior in the use of Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) as part of everyday digital consumption among Generation X and Generation Z. A quantitative survey approach was employed, involving 175 QRIS users in the Greater Jakarta area. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics to examine respondent characteristics, usage patterns, and perceptions related to ease of use, loyalty programs, cashless society orientation, perceived risk, trust, satisfaction, and loyalty. The results indicate that QRIS has become embedded in daily consumption activities, with higher usage intensity observed among Generation Z. Overall, respondents report positive perceptions of ease of use and loyalty programs, while perceived risk remains at a moderate level. Differences in behavioral tendencies are observed across generations. Generation X tends to emphasize trust in shaping satisfaction, whereas Generation Z places greater importance on ease of use. Despite these differences, satisfaction is consistently associated with continued usage behavior in both groups. These findings highlight variations in consumer behavior across generations and underscore the importance of consumer education and protection in supporting the effective use of digital payment systems.

Abstract

Fatherhood is a multidimensional and evolving concept, often shaped by cultural, emotional, and relational dynamics. In Bangladesh, scholarly exploration of fatherhood remains significantly limited, making it difficult to establish a prototypical understanding or to trace its changing meanings. This study aims to explore the lived experiences and interpretations of fatherhood among educated, motherless young adults, focusing specifically on their emotional attachment to their surviving fathers. Drawing on qualitative interviews with 10 young adults, this study identifies four key themes: eternal maternal bondage, grief and adjustment mechanisms, the role and involvement of fathers, and the extent of family support to fathers. These themes reflect how participants make sense of fatherhood through their personal journeys. These young adults continue to share a strong bond with their surviving mothers, but have closely observed how their fathers coped with grief and bereavement following the loss of their partners, how they assumed parenting roles and responsibilities in raising them, and the extent to which family and relatives supported their fathers during this period. The insights provided by this study contribute to a nuanced understanding of fatherhood in Bangladesh and offer valuable implications for both theoretical frameworks and policy development concerning family dynamics and parental roles.
