Abstract

Drug abuse severely degrades individual character, legal awareness, and national moral values, while societal stigma complicates the recovery process. The Baitu Syifa Foundation in Medan plays a pivotal role in drug rehabilitation, yet character building based on Pancasila values within its programs requires optimization. This study aims to analyze the urgency of internalizing Pancasila values in transforming the character of drug addicts at the Baitu Syifa Foundation Medan. An explanatory qualitative approach with socio-educational methods was employed, incorporating field observations, in-depth interviews, reflective journals, and skill development activities. The findings indicate that structured internalization of Pancasila values encompassing Divine, Humanitarian, Unity, Democracy, and Social Justice dimensions effectively enhances legal consciousness, moral responsibility, and social readiness among residents (Thalib). This study concludes that holistically internalizing Pancasila values bridges the gap between medical-religious rehabilitation and civic character transformation, equipping residents for successful social reintegration.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has accelerated the transformation of payment systems toward increasingly widespread cashless transactions among society, particularly among university students as a digital native generation. At the same time, the issue of sustainable economic development requires more environmentally responsible consumption behavior through the utilization of efficient financial technology with minimal use of physical resources. However, studies examining the relationship between digital financial inclusion, cashless payment innovation, and green consumer behavior among university students in Indonesia remain relatively limited. This study offers novelty through the integration of the concepts of digital financial inclusion and green consumer behavior within the context of sustainable economic development among the younger generation. The research gap lies in the limited empirical studies linking the use of digital payments to changes in sustainable consumption behavior within university environments. This study aims to analyze the influence of digital financial inclusion and cashless payment innovation on green consumer behavior in supporting sustainable economic development. The research employed a quantitative approach using a survey technique involving university students in Indonesia as research respondents. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results indicate that digital financial inclusion and cashless payment innovation have a positive and significant effect on green consumer behavior. Furthermore, green consumer behavior has been proven to contribute to supporting sustainable economic development through increased transaction efficiency, reduced cash usage, and greater awareness of responsible consumption behavior.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the influence of performance appraisal systems and compensation, both partially and simultaneously, on the work motivation of Civil Servants (ASN) at the Medan Center for Standardization and Industrial Service (BSPJI), as well as to determine the extent of their contribution to ASN motivation. Using a quantitative method with an associative approach, data were collected through questionnaires distributed to ASN at BSPJI Medan and analyzed with validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, partial t-tests, simultaneous F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²) using Jamovi software. The findings reveal that the performance appraisal system has a positive and significant partial effect on ASN work motivation, while compensation also shows a positive and significant partial effect. Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence ASN work motivation, with the regression equation Y = 6.214 + 0.326X1 + 0.542X2 + e. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 72.4% indicates that performance appraisal and compensation together explain 72.4% of the variation in work motivation, while the remaining 27.6% is influenced by other factors outside the study. These results highlight the importance of implementing an objective, transparent, and achievement-based performance appraisal system alongside fair and equitable compensation aligned with employee contributions to enhance ASN work motivation and support optimal organizational performance.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of self-development and work-life balance quality on the work readiness of final-year Management students at Universitas Sari Mulia, Banjarmasin. A quantitative explanatory research design was conducted involving final-year Management students using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS software. The findings reveal that self-development has a positive but insignificant effect on students’ work readiness. Meanwhile, work-life balance quality has a positive and significant effect on work readiness. Furthermore, self-development and work-life balance quality simultaneously have a significant effect on students’ work readiness. These findings indicate that although self-development alone does not significantly determine work readiness, maintaining a good balance between academic responsibilities and personal life contributes significantly to students’ preparedness for entering the workforce. Simultaneously, self-development and work-life balance quality represent important factors associated with students’ work readiness. This study contributes empirical evidence regarding the role of individual development and work-life balance in supporting the work readiness of final-year university students, particularly in the context of Management education in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of service quality and the work ethic of teachers and staff on the satisfaction of parents/guardians of students at MIS Al Washliyah Rambung Besar Sei Rampah. The research population consisted of all parents/guardians whose children were enrolled in the madrasah during the academic year in which the study was conducted. The sample was selected purposively with a representative number of respondents. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, with the t-test employed to examine partial effects, the F-test to assess simultaneous effects, and the coefficient of determination (R²) to measure the contribution of the independent variables to the dependent variable. The results revealed that service quality had a significant effect on parent satisfaction, with a regression coefficient of 0.042 (β = 0.050), while work ethic also had a significant effect, with a regression coefficient of 0.099 (β = 0.121). The multiple linear regression equation obtained was: Y = 39.291 + 0.042X₁ + 0.099X₂. The calculated F-value indicated a significant simultaneous effect, and the R² value showed that the contribution of both variables to parent satisfaction was relatively substantial.

Abstract

The optimal management of Human Resources (HR) serves as a crucial foundation for the quality and competitiveness of Islamic higher education institutions. This qualitative descriptive study, utilizing a case study method, examines HR governance at the College of Islamic Studies (STAI) Baturaja—covering aspects of planning, recruitment, capacity building, performance evaluation, and compensation systems for lecturers and educational staff. Through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies, the research found that (1) HR planning is formulated based on lecturer-to-student ratios and the specific needs of study programs; (2) the recruitment process upholds high transparency despite constraints in formational quotas; (3) the enhancement of lecturer competence is facilitated through advanced study programs and participation in functional training; and (4) performance appraisal refers to the implementation of the Three Pillars of Higher Education (Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi). The implementation of this research offers a strategic framework for Islamic private higher education managers to boost HR productivity grounded in Islamic values.

Abstract

Desa Mantang Lama, located in Bintan Regency faces significant challenges in managing plastic waste, despite its great potential in marine resources and cultural heritage, particularly the traditional performing art of Mak Yong. This community service program aimed to transform plastic waste into Eco Paving Blocks and integrate them as construction materials for an iconic monument representing the local cultural identity of Mak Yong. The program employed a three-stage method consisting of preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The preparation stage included site observation, the collection of materials and equipment, and the presentation of the program to village officials. The implementation stage involved trials of Eco Paving Block production, community socialization and training, and the construction of an iconic village monument featuring Mak Yong mask ornaments. The evaluation stage was conducted through interviews with two randomly selected community representatives using the Context, Input, Process, Product (CIPP) evaluation model, which consists of four components: Context, Input, Process, and Product. The results showed that the program successfully produced 40 Eco Paving Blocks from plastic waste collected from the landfill and surrounding areas, which were subsequently used to construct the iconic monument. The community response was highly positive, with participants expressing their willingness to continue the program independently due to its simple production process and low cost. The inaugurated monument was also appreciated as an effective promotional medium for Mak Yong performing arts. This program demonstrates that producing Eco Paving Blocks can provide an innovative alternative for utilizing plastic waste while simultaneously strengthening the authentic cultural identity of Mak Yong in Desa Mantang Lama.

Abstract

This study focuses on analyzing community perceptions of the ethics of public service delivered by the Head of Service and Welfare Section in Pematang Guntung Village, Teluk Mengkudu Subdistrict, Serdang Bedagai Regency. Public service at the village level is not merely an administrative process but also a social interaction that requires honesty, responsibility, fairness, transparency, and respect for human dignity. The background of this research arises from the phenomenon of differing community perceptions regarding service quality, where some residents consider the service ethical and satisfactory, while others express dissatisfaction due to limited resources, bureaucratic complexity, lack of transparency, and insufficiently humane communication. The purpose of this study is to analyze how the community evaluates the ethics of service delivery, focusing on honesty, responsibility, fairness, openness, and courteous attitudes of village officials. The research employs a descriptive approach using questionnaires and documentation, ensuring that the data reflects the direct experiences of the community as service recipients. The findings are expected to provide a comprehensive overview of public service quality in Pematang Guntung Village and to identify factors influencing community perceptions. Theoretically, this study contributes to the development of public administration science, particularly in the field of service ethics at the village level. Practically, it offers recommendations for village officials to improve service patterns, enhance transparency, and strengthen public trust.
The Church as a Symbol of God’s Power in Martin Luther’s Christocentric Ecclesiology: A Systematic Theological Study of Contextual Christocentric Ecclesiology Herry Gunawan Siregar; Pintor Marihot Sitanggang

Abstract

This study examines the church as a symbol of God’s authority from the perspective of Martin Luther’s Christocentric ecclesiology and its relevance for contemporary church life, particularly in the context of the ministry of the Huria Kristen Batak Protestan (HKBP). The research employs a qualitative method through literature study. The study finds that understanding the church as a symbol of God’s authority does not mean that the church becomes an instrument of political domination or institutional power. God’s authority is manifested soteriologically through Christ as the Head of the Church, through the proclamation of the Word, the administration of the sacraments, the forgiveness of sins, the renewal of life, and the work of the Holy Spirit. In Luther’s thought, the church is communio sanctorum and creatura Verbi: the communion of saints that is created, sustained, and continually renewed through the Gospel. Consequently, ecclesial authority must remain subject to Christ and His Word, while church leadership is understood as ministerium, a vocation of service rather than domination. The contextualization of the church must therefore preserve Christ as its center while communicating the Gospel faithfully and relevantly in relation to poverty, plurality, justice, peace, and the integrity of creation. The church becomes a sign of God’s reign when its identity, doctrine, leadership, and mission are centered on Christ and embodied in faithfulness to the Gospel and ministries of love.

Abstract

Land-use changes in the Selorejo Forest area, Malang Regency driven by settlement expansion and intensive agriculture have altered how local communities perceive and manage ecosystem services. This research is crucial due to the scarcity of studies integrating cultural pedagogy with knowledge co-production processes in community-based ecosystem service valuation, particularly as mounting pressures on the Selorejo Forest threaten to erode intergenerational local ecological knowledge. The study aims to: (1) analyze the knowledge co-production process among local communities, the government, and academics regarding ecosystem service valuation in Selorejo Forest; (2) identify forms of cultural pedagogy that facilitate community learning about ecosystem service values; and (3) formulate a cultural pedagogy-based community learning model that supports participatory and sustainable ecosystem service valuation. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, and subsequently analyzed using source triangulation. The findings reveal that the knowledge co-production process in Selorejo Forest valuation unfolds in four stages: identification of actors and knowledge systems; interaction and knowledge exchange; negotiation and knowledge synthesis; and implementation accompanied by adaptive learning. This process generates community learning mechanisms, including participatory conservation practices, multi-stakeholder dialogue forums, experiential learning, and the intergenerational transmission of ecological and cultural knowledge. The study formulates a cultural pedagogy model comprising components such as cultural-ecological values, learning actors, the knowledge co-production process, community learning mechanisms, reflective-adaptive practices, and the internalization of ecosystem service values within Selorejo Forest management.
