Abstract

The cosmetic retail industry in Indonesia faces intense competition and increasingly crowded store environments. While prior studies predominantly emphasize the negative consequences of crowding, this study offers a different perspective by examining its potential to elicit positive emotional responses. Drawing on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) framework, this research investigates the effects of human crowding and spatial crowding on consumers’ excitement and stress, and their subsequent impact on satisfaction and impulsive buying behavior. A quantitative survey of 276 consumers was analyzed using SEM-PLS. The findings reveal that human crowding significantly increases both excitement and stress, while spatial crowding primarily triggers stress without affecting excitement. Notably, both excitement and stress positively influence satisfaction, suggesting that stress in this context may function as eustress (positive stress) rather than purely negative pressure. Furthermore, satisfaction significantly drives impulsive buying behavior. This study offers a novel perspective that retail crowding extends beyond negative implications and introduces the role of eustress in shaping consumer experiences in hedonic retail settings. Practical insights for managing crowding to enhance emotional engagement and stimulate impulsive purchases are discussed.

Abstract

This research aims to identify the forms of China’s aggressiveness, analyze how Indonesia formulated and implemented its defense politics, and assess the effectiveness of such responses in safeguarding Indonesia’s sovereignty and sovereign rights in the North Natuna Sea. This study employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive research design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentation, consisting of primary data from informants involved in the formulation and implementation of defense policy, as well as secondary data from official documents, academic literature, and relevant regulations. Data were analyzed qualitatively through classification, categorization, interpretation, and triangulation of sources and methods. The findings reveal that Indonesia’s defense politics during 2014–2023 were carried out through an adaptive, measured, and integrative approach by combining defense posture strengthening, maritime patrols, law enforcement, defense diplomacy, and international legal legitimacy. This defense politics was relatively effective in preventing the establishment of China’s de facto control over Indonesia’s jurisdictional waters and in maintaining regional stability, although it still faced challenges such as power asymmetry, limited maritime capacity, the complexity of gray zone threats, and inter-agency coordination constraints.

Abstract

This study examines teachers’ readiness, usage patterns, perceived benefits, barriers, and professional development needs related to integrating Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) into educational practice. A quantitative descriptive exploratory survey design was employed. Data were collected via online questionnaires from 80 teachers across multiple educational levels (early childhood to vocational secondary) in Bengkulu. Descriptive statistics and thematic analysis were used to analyse the data. Teachers reported high functional readiness and positive perceptions of Gen AI, particularly for lesson planning and content development, while its application for learning analytics and reflective pedagogical inquiry remained limited. The most significant barriers were lack of training and unclear school policies, whereas teachers did not view Gen AI as a threat to their professional role. Key professional development needs included practical training, ethical guidance, curriculum integration, and peer communities. The study provides empirical evidence on teachers actual pedagogical workflows in a developing‑country context, distinguishing functional readiness from conceptual literacy. Findings offer a clear agenda for policy development and teacher professional learning programmes. The research advances understanding of Gen AI integration in resource‑constrained settings and provides an evidence base for pedagogically grounded, ethically responsible AI adoption in education.

Abstract

This study aims to construct an integrated Futuristic Strategic Planning framework designed to ensure the sustainability of Islamic educational institutions amidst the disruptions of Indonesia’s digital era. A qualitative library research design was employed, utilizing Reflexive Thematic Analysis (TA) to examine authoritative academic documents, policy frameworks, and recent scholarly discourses published between 2015 and 2025. The research identifies three core components of futuristic planning: environmental scanning, trend analysis, and scenario building. These elements facilitate the “Mimbar to Mouse” digital transition, ensuring that technological adoption including AI and Learning Management Systems is systematically aligned with institutional identity. The findings indicate that futuristic planning shifts management from administrative compliance to a dynamic “foresight culture.”  The novelty of this research lies in its unique synthesis of proactive foresight models with traditional Islamic pedagogical values, a combination often fragmented in previous literature. Practically, this study provides a strategic roadmap for educational leaders to optimize human resource planning and policy formulation, enabling them to remain resilient in a volatile global landscape. Theoretically, it expands the discourse on Islamic educational management by repositioning planning as the central mechanism for long-term sustainability. The study concludes that an integrated futuristic orientation allows Islamic institutions to remain globally competitive while maintaining their spiritual integrity.

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of service quality and brand image on patient loyalty, with patient satisfaction as a mediating variable, at a public primary healthcare centre in Indonesia. Using a cross-sectional survey of 300 outpatients with at least two visits for different diagnoses, data were analyzed via Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and the Sobel test, and model fit was evaluated with multiple indices. The results indicate that service quality (CR=6.54, p<0.001) and brand image (CR=5.94, p<0.001) significantly enhance patient satisfaction, whereas service quality (CR=0.59, p=0.56), brand image (CR=1.77, p=0.08), and patient satisfaction (CR=-0.01, p=0.99) do not significantly affect patient loyalty, and satisfaction does not mediate the relationships (Sobel p=0.995). The model exhibited poor fit (CFI=0.79, RMSEA=0.092), indicating that findings should be interpreted cautiously. The study contributes to understanding that satisfaction can be improved by service quality and institutional image, but loyalty may depend on other factors such as trust, access, and continuity of care. Health centre managers should not assume satisfaction alone ensures loyalty, and future research should test alternative mediators using longitudinal designs and better-fitting models.

Abstract

Hybrid warfare integrates military and non-military instruments, with cyberspace emerging as a critical domain. Cyber threats in this context are systemic, multidimensional, and difficult to attribute, yet existing studies often treat cybersecurity and hybrid warfare separately. This study maps cyber threats within hybrid warfare frameworks and formulates strategic responses to support national defense. A qualitative descriptive approach was used, combining systematic literature review (45 peer-reviewed articles and policy documents, 2018–2025), Soft System Methodology (SSM) for complexity analysis, and SWOT analysis for strategic formulation. Four principal cyber threat types were identified: attacks on critical infrastructure, cyber espionage, disinformation campaigns, and influence operations. Key characteristics include multidimensionality, attribution difficulty, asymmetry, and involvement of both state and non-state actors. SSM revealed interconnected systems across technology, governance, and society. SWOT analysis identified strengths (growing digital human resources) and weaknesses (limited inter-agency coordination). A strategic response model comprising system integration, capacity enhancement, and national coordination is proposed. National defense systems must adopt holistic, adaptive frameworks that integrate cyber capabilities, cross-sectoral collaboration, and societal resilience. Future research should empirically test the proposed model in national defense contexts.

Abstract

This study examines how the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) internationalizes human rights issues in Papua through transnational advocacy. Despite Indonesia's sovereignty over Papua, the ULMWP has successfully shifted the Papua issue from a domestic concern to a regional and international agenda, particularly within Pacific multilateral forums. Using a qualitative descriptive-analytical method grounded in Keck and Sikkink's Transnational Advocacy Network (TAN) theory, this study analyzes primary data from interviews with diaspora figures and secondary data from organizational documents, media reports, and diplomatic communiqués. The findings reveal that the ULMWP employs four TAN strategies: (1) information politics through documentation of alleged human rights violations (e.g., The Nduga Conflict report) and social media dissemination; (2) symbolic politics by leveraging Melanesian identity and cultural performances to build solidarity with Māori and Aboriginal communities; (3) leverage politics by engaging regional actors such as the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF) and Australian parliamentarians to exert moral pressure; and (4) accountability politics by demanding Indonesia comply with international human rights commitments. These strategies have successfully institutionalized the Papua issue within PIF communiqués and gained explicit state support from Vanuatu. However, the study finds that transnational advocacy has produced only moral and reputational pressure, not substantive Indonesian policy change on Papua's political status. This study contributes to the literature on non-state diplomacy, human rights advocacy, and Pacific regional politics, while also highlighting the limits of TAN in influencing sovereign states' core security policies.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of digital payment adoption on the financial management efficiency of culinary micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) using the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) in Bandung, Indonesia. Amid rapid digitalization, many MSMEs continue to face challenges in transaction recording and cash flow management, despite the potential of digital payment systems to automate and streamline these processes. A quantitative approach with a descriptive-causal design was employed. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire (1–5) administered to 100 culinary MSME owners who actively used QRIS for at least three months, selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis included validity and reliability testing, classical assumption tests (normality, linearity, heteroscedasticity), and simple linear regression. The results show that digital payment adoption has a positive and significant effect on financial management efficiency (β = 0.571, t = 6.884, p < 0.001). The coefficient of determination (R² = 0.326) indicates that 32.6% of the variance in financial management efficiency is explained by digital payment adoption. The use of QRIS automates transaction records, enhances data accuracy, minimizes manual errors, and simplifies reconciliation. Two items (ease of use and frequency of use) were dropped due to a ceiling effect, as active users exhibited homogeneous positive perceptions. This study concludes that QRIS adoption plays a meaningful role in improving MSME financial governance. Practical implications include the need for enhanced digital literacy training for MSME actors and integrated policy design by regulators. Limitations include the cross-sectional design and moderate explanatory power; future research should incorporate mediating variables such as digital financial literacy.

Abstract

This study examines the direct and indirect effects of situational leadership and organizational support on junior high school teachers’ work motivation, with self-efficacy as a mediating variable. A quantitative correlational design with path analysis was employed. The sample comprised 128 teachers randomly selected from a population of 203 teachers in Kotabaru Regency, Indonesia. Data were collected using validated Likert-scale questionnaires (Cronbach’s α > 0.96 for all variables). Path analysis revealed that situational leadership (β = 0.315, p = 0.008) and organizational support (β = 0.377, p < 0.001) have significant direct effects on self-efficacy, which in turn significantly predicts work motivation (β = 0.376, p = 0.010). Self-efficacy partially mediates the relationships between both situational leadership and organizational support on work motivation. The model explained substantial variance in self-efficacy (R² = 0.68) and work motivation (R² = 0.71). These findings confirm that teacher work motivation is enhanced by adaptive school leadership, supportive organizational environments, and strengthened teacher self-belief. Practical implications include developing principal training programs in situational leadership and creating organizational support systems that foster teacher self-efficacy. Limitations include the cross-sectional design and single geographic setting; future research should employ longitudinal designs across diverse educational contexts.

Abstract

This study examines a hypothetical Israeli airstrike on Doha, Qatar, on 9 September 2025, targeting Hamas leadership, to explore Israel’s decision-making through the Rational Actor Model (RAM). The research aims to understand why Israel might consider military action in a Gulf state despite potential diplomatic and geopolitical risks. Using a theory-driven scenario analysis with secondary data, including official documents, academic publications, and credible news sources, the study reconstructs Israel’s strategic objectives, policy alternatives, and expected consequences. Findings suggest that, within the RAM framework, Israel’s action could be interpreted as a calculated choice prioritizing national security and deterrence, while balancing potential costs such as regional instability and international condemnation. The study provides practical insights for policymakers on the complexities of preventive military strategies and their broader implications for regional diplomacy. The research contributes to international relations scholarship by demonstrating the application of RAM in analyzing hypothetical extreme security scenarios, highlighting the interplay between rational calculation, strategic objectives, and geopolitical constraints.
