Abstract

This study examines the effect of supervision and the work environment on employee work discipline at Type A Terminal Tirtonadi Surakarta. The study responds to the operational characteristics of a 24-hour public transportation terminal, where employee attendance, compliance with standard operating procedures, and continuous presence at operational posts are essential to service reliability. A quantitative survey design was employed. The population comprised 116 employees, and 90 respondents were selected using simple random sampling after the Slovin formula was applied at a 5% margin of error. Data were collected through a five-point Likert questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, an F-test, and the coefficient of determination. The instruments were valid and reliable, with Cronbach's alpha values of 0.906 for supervision, 0.918 for the work environment, and 0.940 for work discipline. The regression equation was Y = -0.200 + 0.793X1 + 0.363X2 + e. Supervision had a positive and significant effect on work discipline (B = 0.793; t = 5.663; p < 0.001), while the work environment also had a positive and significant effect (B = 0.363; t = 3.042; p = 0.003). Simultaneously, the model was significant (F = 245.713; p < 0.001), with an Adjusted R² of 0.865. These findings indicate that disciplined public service behavior at Tirtonadi Terminal is strongly associated with systematic supervisory practices and a supportive physical and social work environment.

Abstract

The increasing use of Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) services has raised concerns about impulse buying behavior, particularly among Generation Z. This study aims to examine the effect of intention to use Shopee PayLater on impulse buying behavior and the moderating role of religiosity in this relationship. The study employed an explanatory quantitative approach using primary data collected through an online questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale. A total of 130 Generation Z respondents residing in Semarang City who had used Shopee PayLater were selected through purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS. The results indicate that intention to use Shopee PayLater has a positive and statistically significant relationship with impulse buying behavior (β = 0.543; t = 8.001; p < 0.001). However, religiosity does not significantly moderate this relationship (β = −0.026; t = 0.352; p = 0.725). The model explains 30% of the variance in impulse buying behavior, as indicated by the R² value of 0.300. These findings suggest that stronger intention to use Shopee PayLater is associated with greater impulse buying behavior among the respondents, while the proposed moderating role of religiosity is not supported by the data. The findings highlight the importance of responsible use of digital financial services and improved consumer self-control to help reduce unplanned purchases.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship of Market Capitalization and Company Size with Stock Returns at PT Sariguna Primatirta Tbk during 2017–2025. A quantitative approach was employed using secondary data from annual financial reports and historical stock prices. The data comprised nine annual observations and were analyzed using multiple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics 25. The results indicate that neither Market Capitalization nor Company Size is a statistically significant predictor of Stock Returns individually or jointly within the research model. The (R^2) value of 0.008 indicates that the model explains 0.8% of the variation in Stock Returns. These findings should be interpreted cautiously because the study is limited to nine annual observations from a single company, which restricts the generalizability of the results. Future research could include more companies, longer observation periods, and additional variables

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between financial literacy, Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), and risk perception and cryptocurrency investment interest among Generation Z in Driyorejo District, Gresik Regency. The study employed a quantitative approach with an explanatory research design. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale. The population consisted of 3,207 individuals from Generation Z. Based on the Slovin formula with a 10% margin of error, the calculated sample size was 96.97, rounded to 97 respondents. However, the study collected data from 100 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using SPSS, including validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination. The results showed that financial literacy (B = 0.164; p = 0.011), FOMO (B = 0.017; p = 0.026), and risk perception (B = 0.390; p = 0.006) were each positively and significantly associated with cryptocurrency investment interest. Simultaneously, the three independent variables were statistically significant (F = 64.787; p < 0.001). The model produced an unadjusted R² of 0.669 and an adjusted R² of 0.659, indicating that the model explained 66.9% of the observed variation in investment interest before adjustment and 65.9% after adjustment for the number of predictors and sample size. These findings indicate significant statistical relationships between the three variables and cryptocurrency investment interest among Generation Z in Driyorejo District.

Abstract

This study examines the partial and simultaneous associations of Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Earnings Per Share (EPS), Price Earnings Ratio (PER), and Price to Book Value (PBV) with stock price growth at PT United Tractors Tbk during the 2015–2025 period. A quantitative approach was employed using secondary data from annual financial reports and stock prices, comprising 11 annual observations from a single company. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics 26. The results show that DER has a negative and statistically significant association with stock price growth (β = −0.939, p = 0.048), while EPS (p = 0.069) and PER (p = 0.505) are not statistically significant. In contrast, PBV has a positive and statistically significant association with stock price growth (β = 49.014, p = 0.013). Simultaneously, the four predictors are statistically significant (F = 5.985, p = 0.027). The adjusted R² of 0.666 indicates that the model explains 66.6% of the variation in stock price growth, while the remaining 33.4% is not explained by the model. Given the limited number of observations and the single-company setting, these findings should be interpreted cautiously and do not establish causal relationships. The results highlight the individual statistical relevance of DER and PBV in explaining stock price growth during the study period.
