<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the influence of influencer marketing and content marketing on consumer purchase decisions for Jims Honey products in the digital era. The research employs a quantitative explanatory approach with a sample of 100 respondents selected through purposive sampling, consisting of consumers who follow Jims Honey’s social media accounts and have previously made a purchase. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, as well as t-tests and F-tests. The findings reveal that influencer marketing has a significant positive effect on purchase decisions (β = 0.678; p < 0.001), while content marketing also significantly influences purchase decisions (β = 0.434; p < 0.001). Simultaneously, both variables demonstrate a significant effect (F = 83.366; p < 0.001), with a coefficient of determination (R² = 0.629), indicating that 62.9% of the variance in purchase decisions is explained by the two independent variables. These results imply that businesses in the digital marketplace should strategically integrate influencer partnerships and high-quality content marketing to strengthen consumer engagement and enhance purchase decision outcomes.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to describe and analyze the implementation of a democratic leadership style by a school principal in improving educational quality. A qualitative approach with a descriptive method was employed to explore leadership practices within the school context. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving the principal, teachers, and educational staff. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing to ensure systematic interpretation. The findings reveal that the principal implemented democratic leadership by actively involving teachers in decision-making processes, fostering open communication, distributing responsibilities proportionally, and providing trust and recognition for teacher performance. These practices contributed to the improvement of educational quality, reflected in enhanced instructional processes, increased teacher motivation and professionalism, and the development of a collaborative and quality-oriented school culture. The study implies that democratic leadership serves as an effective strategic approach for strengthening educational quality, particularly in schools facing resource limitations.]]>

<![CDATA[The phenomenon of consumer boycotts against global brands is growing stronger as public attention to corporate ethical and humanitarian issues increases. This study aims to analyze the influence of Consumer Animosity and Boycott Campaign Intensity on Boycott Participation with Boycott Intention as a mediating variable on Unilever Indonesia products. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method of 332 respondents in Indonesia who had consumed Unilever products and were aware of the boycott campaign. Data were analyzed using covariance-based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM) through AMOS. The results showed that Consumer Animosity and boycott campaign intensity had a positive and significant effect on Boycott Intention. Furthermore, Boycott Intention was proven to be the main determinant that drove Boycott Participation and significantly mediated the influence of both independent variables on boycott participation. These findings conclude that boycott behavior is influenced by emotional factors and social mobilization simultaneously, which strengthen consumer involvement in collective action. This study provides strategic implications for companies in managing their reputation and responding to public ethical issues.]]>

<![CDATA[This study investigates the effect of work-life balance and supervisor support on turnover intention, with job satisfaction serving as a mediating variable among employees of PT PLN (Persero) Pusat Sertifikasi. Grounded in social exchange theory and organizational behavior perspectives, this research addresses employee retention issues within a state-owned enterprise context. A quantitative explanatory design was employed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). Data was collected from 80 employees through structured questionnaires and analyzed using SmartPLS 3. The results demonstrate that work-life balance and supervisor support have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Work-life balance also exerts a significant direct effect on turnover intention. However, supervisor support and job satisfaction do not significantly affect turnover intention. Furthermore, mediation analysis confirms that job satisfaction does not mediate the relationship between the independent variables and turnover intention. These findings indicate that turnover intention in public sector organizations is shaped not only by attitudinal factors but also by structural and organizational conditions. This study contributes to the empirical development of human resource management literature and provides managerial implications for strengthening employee retention strategies]]>

<![CDATA[Teacher performance is a crucial determinant of educational quality as it directly influences instructional effectiveness and student learning outcomes. This study aimed to examine the effects of academic supervision, work motivation, and work discipline on teacher performance. A quantitative correlational design was employed, involving 35 teachers selected through a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using validated and reliable Likert-scale questionnaires and supported by Teacher Performance Appraisal documentation. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings revealed that academic supervision did not have a significant effect on teacher performance (p > .05). In contrast, work motivation had a significant positive effect (p < .05), and work discipline demonstrated the strongest positive influence (p < .05). Simultaneously, the three independent variables significantly predicted teacher performance, indicating that a substantial proportion of variance in performance was explained by the model. These results imply that improving teacher performance requires prioritizing strategies that strengthen work motivation and reinforce work discipline, while enhancing the effectiveness and practical implementation of academic supervision practices.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the effects of compensation and work motivation on teacher performance by integrating leadership style, organizational culture, compensation, and work motivation into a single structural model. The research employs a causal associative quantitative approach using a survey method with a 1–5 Likert scale questionnaire administered to 94 teachers. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4.0. The findings reveal that compensation significantly influences work motivation, and work motivation significantly affects teacher performance. However, work motivation does not mediate the relationship between compensation and teacher performance. Leadership style primarily affects teacher performance indirectly through its influence on motivation rather than through a direct effect. Compensation directly enhances motivation and contributes significantly to teacher performance, while organizational culture shows an indirect but statistically insignificant effect. These results imply that strengthening teacher performance requires strategic emphasis on enhancing work motivation through effective leadership and supportive compensation systems. Educational institutions should prioritize leadership practices and fair compensation policies to foster sustainable performance improvement.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the effects of religiosity and consumer animosity on purchase unwillingness within a boycott context, with product judgment serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey of 200 Muslim consumers aged 17 years and above who were aware of the boycott issue and expressed concern over related humanitarian matters. The data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings reveal that religiosity and consumer animosity negatively and significantly influence product judgment, while both variables positively and significantly affect purchase unwillingness. Product judgment also exerts a negative and significant effect on purchase unwillingness and functions as a partial mediator in the relationships between religiosity, consumer animosity, and purchase unwillingness. These results imply that cognitive evaluations of products serve as an important mechanism through which moral commitment and hostile sentiments are translated into refusal to purchase, highlighting the need for firms to address not only emotional reactions but also consumers’ evaluative perceptions in managing boycott situations.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to improve the descriptive text writing skills of seventh-grade students through the implementation of the 4F learning model (Fact, Feeling, Finding, and Future). The research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles, with data collected through observation, writing tests, documentation, and questionnaires. The data were analyzed using descriptive qualitative and quantitative techniques to measure both the learning process and students’ writing achievement. The results indicate a significant improvement in students’ average scores, increasing from 49.48 in the pre-test to 65.28 in Cycle I and 86.02 in Cycle II. The structured stages of the 4F model observing facts, expressing feelings, identifying findings, and formulating future expectations effectively guided students in organizing ideas into coherent descriptive texts, supported by audiovisual and visual media. Students also demonstrated highly positive responses, with an approval rate of 98.96%. These findings imply that the 4F learning model can serve as an effective and engaging instructional strategy to enhance students’ descriptive writing skills at the junior secondary level.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the effect of work family conflict on turnover intention among married Generation Z employees in the banking sector, with burnout and job satisfaction serving as dual mediating variables. A quantitative approach was employed by distributing online questionnaires to 200 married Gen Z banking employees in Indonesia, and the data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS. The results indicate that work–family conflict has a positive and significant effect on turnover intention, although its direct contribution is relatively small. However, work–family conflict exerts a strong and significant influence on increasing burnout and decreasing job satisfaction. Among the variables examined, job satisfaction emerged as the most dominant predictor in reducing turnover intention, demonstrating the highest path coefficient. Furthermore, the mediation analysis confirms that burnout and job satisfaction function as significant emotional mechanisms that translate work–family conflict into turnover intention, with the mediating role of job satisfaction being substantially stronger than that of burnout. These findings imply that maintaining and enhancing job satisfaction is a critical talent retention strategy, particularly in mitigating the adverse effects of work–family conflict among married Gen Z employees in the banking industry.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the influence of fintech payment usage, income, and hedonic lifestyle on impulse buying behavior among Generation Z, as well as to analyze the moderating role of financial literacy in these relationships. A quantitative approach was employed using a cross-sectional survey design. The sample consisted of 280 respondents selected using the Slovin formula. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using moderated regression analysis with SmartPLS version 4.1.1.6. The results indicate that fintech payment usage, income, and hedonic lifestyle have positive and significant effects on impulse buying behavior. Financial literacy significantly weakens the relationship between hedonic lifestyle and impulse buying. However, it does not significantly moderate the effects of fintech payment usage and income on impulse buying. These findings imply that improving financial literacy can serve as a strategic mechanism to reduce the negative impact of a hedonic lifestyle on impulsive purchasing decisions. The study contributes to the literature on consumer behavior by highlighting the protective role of financial literacy in the digital financial ecosystem and provides practical insights for policymakers and financial educators in designing interventions to promote responsible consumption among young consumers.]]>
