Abstract

The transformation of Islamic education has become increasingly important amid digitalization, the Industrial Revolution 4.0, Society 5.0, and the growing demand for 21st-century competencies. This study analyzes the transformation of Islamic education from a historical perspective and examines its contribution to the development of Indonesia’s national education system. This study employed a qualitative library research design using a historical and conceptual approach. Data were collected from relevant scholarly literature, academic books, policy documents, and regulations and analyzed through historical analysis, thematic content analysis, and conceptual synthesis. The findings demonstrate that Islamic education has undergone continuous and multidimensional transformation in paradigms, institutions, curricula, learning approaches, values, and governance, from the classical period to the digital era. This transformation has strengthened its contribution to character formation, human resource development, knowledge integration, religious moderation, and 21st-century competencies. The study concludes that adaptive transformation while preserving Islamic values is essential for sustaining Islamic education’s role in national educational development. The conceptual model developed provides implications for adaptive educational policies and future empirical research.

Abstract

Corporate social responsibility in extractive industries is increasingly expected to address community welfare and environmental sustainability, particularly in coastal areas where livelihoods depend on natural resources. Coastal vulnerability is associated with mangrove degradation, limited alternative livelihoods, and environmental pressures. This study examines the planning process of Company PX’s Labuhan Coastal Ecotourism CSR Program and identifies the factors supporting and constraining its development. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis involving five purposively selected informants representing key program stakeholders. The findings show that CSR planning was developed through social mapping, stakeholder consultation, capacity building, group formation, managerial assistance, institutional strengthening, livelihood diversification, community self-reliance, and knowledge diffusion. The program integrated mangrove rehabilitation with community-based ecotourism and economic activities, while gradually reducing corporate intervention. Strong village leadership, community integrity, and growing acceptance supported program development, whereas limited corporate funding, insufficient external stakeholder support, and land-tenure conflict constrained implementation. The study concludes that effective coastal CSR requires integrated planning that combines environmental restoration, stakeholder participation, institutional strengthening, livelihood diversification, and gradual transition toward community ownership.

Abstract

Patient satisfaction is an important indicator of healthcare quality, yet improvements in service performance do not always translate into consistently favorable patient evaluations. This study aimed to examine the effects of service quality and hospital image on patient satisfaction and patient trust, as well as the mediating role of patient trust. A quantitative survey with a causal design was conducted among 342 respondents consisting of inpatients and family members or companions. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS. The findings show that service quality and hospital image have positive and significant effects on patient satisfaction and patient trust. Patient trust also has a positive and significant effect on patient satisfaction and significantly mediates the effects of service quality and hospital image on patient satisfaction. These findings indicate that improving service quality and strengthening hospital image should be accompanied by efforts to build patient trust. The study concludes that patient trust is an important mechanism for translating service experiences and institutional perceptions into greater patient satisfaction.

Abstract

Nutritional status is a crucial indicator of young children’s growth, with dietary patterns and dietary diversity hypothesized to influence it significantly. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between dietary patterns and dietary diversity and nutritional status based on the Height-for-Age Z-score (HAZ) index among young children. Using an analytic observational cross-sectional design, 37 children aged 60–72 months were selected through total sampling. Dietary patterns, dietary diversity, and nutritional status were assessed using the FFQ, IDDS, and HAZ, respectively, and analyzed using the Spearman Rank test. Most children had good dietary patterns (75.7%), moderate or high dietary diversity (45.9% each), and normal HAZ status (75.7%). Dietary patterns showed a very strong positive relationship with HAZ (r = 0.804; p = <0.001), while dietary diversity showed a moderate positive relationship (r = 0.516; p = <0.001). Thus, better dietary patterns and greater dietary diversity were significantly associated with more favorable height-for-age nutritional status, highlighting the importance of balanced and varied diets in supporting optimal child growth and development.

Abstract

Digital transformation in hospitals requires more than technology availability because sustained use depends on organizational culture, digital capability, and collective readiness for change. This study aimed to analyze the direct and indirect effects of adaptive organizational culture on successful digital service adoption through digital transformation readiness and organizational readiness for change. A quantitative explanatory cross-sectional survey among 205 employees selected from a population of 419 using proportional stratified random sampling across 15 occupational groups. Adaptive organizational culture, digital transformation readiness, organizational readiness for change, and digital service adoption success were measured using a 30-item five-point Likert questionnaire. Data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling with SmartPLS 4, including measurement evaluation, direct effect analysis, and parallel mediation testing with 5,000 bootstrap samples. The findings showed that adaptive organizational culture significantly influenced digital transformation readiness, organizational readiness for change, and digital service adoption success. Both readiness variables also significantly predicted adoption success and demonstrated complementary partial mediation. Successful hospital digitalization therefore requires adaptive cultural practices supported by technical-organizational readiness and collective preparedness for change.

Abstract

The company’s financial performance is a very important aspect because it reflects the company’s ability to manage its resources effectively and efficiently, one of the indicators is the level of profitability proxied by return on assets. This study aims to analyze the effect of financial ratios such as the debt-to-equity ratio, current ratio, and total asset turnover on the company’s return on assets, both partially and simultaneously. This study uses a quantitative approach with panel data involving 17 technology sector companies listed on the IDX, using purposive sampling techniques and classical assumption tests, panel data regression tests, hypothesis tests, and coefficients of determination using EViews 13. The results of this study indicate that the debt-to-equity ratio and current ratio do not have a significant effect on return on assets, whereas total asset turnover does have an effect on return on assets. Simultaneously, these variables have a significant effect on return on assets because many factors influence return on assets-not just the debt-to-equity ratio and the current ratio alone. The findings imply that profitability in technology companies is influenced more by strategic and innovation-related factors than by conventional financial ratios such as leverage, liquidity, and asset utilization efficiency.

Abstract

The rapid evolution of digital technologies has intensified competition in software development, requiring firms to strengthen strategic capabilities to adapt and remain competitive over the long term. This study investigates the influence of digital business ecosystem strategy and innovation capability on organizational agility, with knowledge integration serving as a mediating variable. This study employed a quantitative explanatory cross-sectional survey of 300 employees in Indonesian software development companies selected through purposive sampling. Respondents included software engineers, developers, system analysts, DevOps engineers, quality assurance engineers, and product managers. Data were analyzed using PLS-SEM with SmartPLS 4. The findings reveal that digital business ecosystem strategy significantly enhances knowledge integration and organizational agility, while innovation capability positively affects both constructs. Knowledge integration also strengthens organizational agility and partially mediates the relationships between digital business ecosystem strategy, innovation capability, and organizational agility. These findings indicate that effective ecosystem collaboration, continuous innovation, and knowledge integration enhance organizational adaptability and responsiveness in dynamic digital environments. The study contributes an integrated model explaining how ecosystem strategy and innovation capability strengthen organizational agility through knowledge integration, while providing practical insights for software development managers to improve ecosystem collaboration, innovation, and knowledge management.

Abstract

Effective corporate tax governance is essential for foreign investment enterprises to navigate complex international tax frameworks and maintain regulatory compliance. This study explores the implementation of corporate tax governance at PT PMCS, evaluates the influence of foreign ownership and the Indonesia–Singapore Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) on tax decisions, and identifies mechanisms to mitigate cross-border tax risks. Utilizing a qualitative single-case study grounded in Agency Theory and Institutional Theory, data were gathered through in-depth interviews with six key informants and triangulated with financial reports (2019–2023) and tax documents. Thematic analysis conducted using NVivo 15 reveals that PT PMCS implements structured tax governance through written policies, clear segregation of duties, and compliance controls. Passive foreign investors grant local management operational autonomy while maintaining supervisory mechanisms, whereas cross-border tax risks are managed through systematic transaction verification and Certificate of Domicile (Form DGT) documentation. This study extends Agency and Institutional theories by explaining how governance mechanisms align investor oversight with local autonomy. The findings offer actionable guidance for multinational enterprises and tax authorities in integrating enterprise risk management with international tax compliance controls.

Abstract

High levels of social media use among young adults increase the risk of social media addiction. This study aims to examine the effect of loneliness on social media addiction through self-control among emerging adults. The hypotheses propose that loneliness has an indirect effect on social media addiction through self-control, as well as a direct effect on social media addiction. This study used a quantitative approach, with path analysis conducted in JASP. The sample included 389 emerging adults aged 18–25 who actively used social media. The results revealed a significant indirect effect of loneliness on social media addiction through self-control. These findings indicate that higher levels of loneliness are associated with lower levels of self-control, which in turn are associated with higher levels of social media addiction. In addition, loneliness had a significant direct effect on social media addiction, indicating that individuals who experience higher levels of loneliness tend to exhibit higher levels of social media addiction. Therefore, self-control serves as a partial mediator in the relationship between loneliness and social media addiction among emerging adults. This study highlights the important role of self-control in explaining how loneliness may contribute to social media addiction among emerging adults.

Abstract

The implementation of the green economy under regional autonomy presents a paradox between local governments’ decision-making space and the need for integrated national policies. This qualitative study examines the dispersion of authority, intergovernmental interactions, and regional decision space in integrating the green economy in West Kalimantan Province. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis involving key informants from the Ministry of Home Affairs, particularly the Directorates General of Regional Autonomy and Regional Development, and subnational institutions, including Bapperida, the Governance Bureau, and the Environment and Forestry Office of West Kalimantan. Data were analyzed using Creswell’s data analysis spiral. The findings show that although the division of authority is normatively clear, implementation remains fragmented because green economy responsibilities are distributed across multiple sectors. Existing coordination mechanisms have not produced substantive policy integration, while regional decision space is constrained by sectoral regulations, fiscal limitations, and limited institutional resources. Green economy integration remains largely confined to formal planning documents and has not driven cross-sectoral structural transformation. The autonomy paradox arises as regional governments are expected to accelerate economic growth while preserving environmental sustainability despite uneven authority distribution and inadequate fiscal incentives.
