Abstract

This study aims to analyze how students express sexual meaning through the use of emojis and stickers on social media and understand the social constructs behind these practices. The research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data was obtained through in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with students who actively use social media at SMAN 10 Bombana, Southeast Sulawesi. Data analysis is carried out through the stages of data reduction, thematic categorization, interpretation of meaning, and drawing conclusions by referring to the perspective of symbolic communication in the digital space. The results show that digital sexual expression does not appear in the form of open communication, but through the use of visual symbols such as emojis and stickers that contain implicit sexual meaning. This practice is only carried out by a small number of students, but it functions as a medium for conveying humor, emotional closeness, and negotiating adolescent identities in private communication spaces. These findings indicate that digital symbols act as an adaptive mechanism that allows adolescents to express their sexuality without directly violating applicable social norms. Theoretically, this study enriches the study of media and sexuality by showing that adolescent sexual expression in the digital space is not always explicit, but can be constructed through communication symbols that have contextual and layered meanings. This study offers a new perspective on the relationship between local culture, symbolic communication, and adolescent digital sexuality practices, while affirming the importance of developing digital literacy and sexuality education that is sensitive to socio-cultural contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to empirically examine the partial and simultaneous effects of motivation and digital literacy on the entrepreneurial interest of alumni from the State Islamic Institute (IAIN) Parepare. Employing a quantitative method with a causal explanatory approach, research data were systematically gathered via structured questionnaires from a purposive sample of 80 alumni. The collected data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, partial t-tests, simultaneous F-tests, Pearson correlation, and a one-sample t-test. The empirical results demonstrate that motivation and digital literacy simultaneously exert a positive and highly significant effect on entrepreneurial interest, explaining 78.1% of the total variance (R Square = 0.781). Partially, motivation which integrates the psychological need for achievement with the theological foundation of the Islamic work ethic significantly drives entrepreneurial intentions (sig. 0.000; coefficient 0.388). Similarly, digital literacy acts as a crucial pre-business catalyst, significantly boosting entrepreneurial interest (sig. 0.001; coefficient 0.397) by enabling alumni to validate market opportunities and lower perceived risks of business failure. However, the one-sample t-test critically reveals that the actual mean scores for both motivation and digital literacy among alumni are statistically and significantly below the expected standard target value of 70 (mean differences of -13.263 and -25.338 respectively; sig. 0.000). This empirical gap directly explains the currently low absorption rate of graduates into the self-employed sector (only 8% according to tracer study data). Based on these findings, it is highly recommended that higher education institutions systematically intervene by integrating practical digital entrepreneurship competencies into the core academic curriculum. Furthermore, establishing dedicated post-campus business incubation programs is essential to proactively elevate the foundational motivation and technical capacities of graduates, effectively transforming their latent entrepreneurial intentions into successful, sustainable actualized business ventures

Abstract

Parental divorce often places children in a vulnerable position because the dissolution of marriage may disrupt the fulfilment of their legal, emotional, educational, and social rights. This study examines how the principle of the best interests of the child is implemented after parental divorce from the perspectives of Islamic family law and child psychology. It specifically investigates the forms of protection provided to children, the legal and psychological consequences of divorce, and the relevance of Islamic legal principles in safeguarding children’s welfare. The study employed qualitative field research with an empirical juridical approach. Data were collected through interviews with students affected by parental divorce, guidance and counselling teachers, homeroom teachers, and other relevant school personnel, supported by observation, documentation, statutory regulations, Islamic legal sources, and scholarly literature. The data were analysed descriptively through data reduction, classification, interpretation, and triangulation. The findings indicate that protection for children after parental divorce remains insufficient in several respects. Some children experienced reduced parental attention, limited financial support, disrupted caregiving arrangements, declining learning motivation, emotional distress, social withdrawal, and behavioural changes. In several cases, daily care was transferred to grandparents or other relatives, revealing a gap between formal custody arrangements and actual parental responsibility. From an Islamic family law perspective, divorce does not terminate parental obligations concerning hadanah, maintenance, education, affection, and moral guidance. These obligations are consistent with the objectives of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, particularly the protection of life, intellect, and lineage. The study concludes that safeguarding children after divorce requires more than formal custody decisions; it demands sustained parental involvement, psychological assistance, school-based counselling, family cooperation, and institutional supervision. Future research should examine post-divorce child protection across broader social settings and develop integrated legal and psychosocial intervention models.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the mastery of nadzam al-'imriti and students' nahwu competence at Madrasah Tsanawiyah, and to analyze whether the mastery of nadzam al-'imriti has a significant effect on students' nahwu competence. The study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational research design. The population consisted of 173 students, with a sample of 63 students selected through Probability Sampling using the Proportionate Stratified Random Sampling technique. Data were collected through a written test consisting of multiple-choice and essay items, which were then analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The results show that (1) students' mastery of nadzam al-'imriti falls into the low category (4485/7182 = 0.62, or 62% of the established criterion); (2) students' nahwu competence falls into the very low category (3116.88/5874.12 = 0.53, or 53% of the established criterion); and (3) there is a significant relationship between mastery of nadzam al-'imriti and students' nahwu competence, with a Correlation Coefficient of 0.436, which according to the interpretation guideline falls into the moderate category. These findings recommend strengthening the learning method for nadzam al-'imriti at Madrasah Tsanawiyah, both through memorization guidance and direct kitab-reading practice, so that students' nahwu competence can improve.
