Abstract

This study examines why electoral outcomes vary across representative polities by analyzing the structural and behavioral mechanisms governing democratic systems. Utilizing a comparative qualitative framework, the research investigates how electoral formulas, district magnitudes, and administrative models interact with socio-political cleavages and digital political marketing. Findings indicate that institutional independence and professionalized electoral management mitigate executive overreach and reinforce procedural integrity during contested electoral cycles. Furthermore, strategic communication and innovative campaign practices powerfully influence voter participation dynamics despite rising polarization and information fragmentation. Ultimately, maintaining democratic resilience necessitates strengthening institutional autonomy while addressing complex sociological fault lines within contemporary electorates.

Abstract

This study analyzes the implementation of the Self-Help Assistance Program for Uninhabitable Houses (BSRTLH) in Bintan Buyu Village, Teluk Bintan District, Bintan Regency, in 2025. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach to examine policy implementation based on George C. Edward III's framework, encompassing communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, documentation, and literature review involving government officials, Field Facilitators (TFL), village authorities, and beneficiary households. The findings indicate that communication was generally effective through socialization, coordination, and direct assistance, although some beneficiaries still misunderstood the stimulant nature of the program. Resources were relatively supportive through the availability of personnel, information, authority, and facilities, but administrative requirements, limited internet connectivity, and budget constraints remained challenges. Implementers demonstrated supportive dispositions through commitment, responsiveness, and active assistance to beneficiaries. Nevertheless, the allocation of six assistance units with only five realized, alongside the remaining housing needs, indicates that implementation has not fully addressed local demand. Strengthening communication, administrative assistance, resource allocation, digital infrastructure, and interinstitutional coordination is therefore necessary to improve program effectiveness and achieve more equitable access to adequate housing.

Abstract

Stunting remains a public health challenge in Indonesia, particularly in archipelagic regions where geographical conditions, limited resources, and unequal access to health services constrain intervention effectiveness. This study aimed to analyze the strategy of the Lingga Regency Health Office in preventing and reducing stunting among children in Lingga Subdistrict in 2025 using Geoff Mulgan’s Public Strategy framework. A qualitative case study approach was employed, with informants selected purposively from health officials, Community Health Center personnel, Posyandu cadres, and community members. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and documentation and analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model, with triangulation to ensure credibility. The findings indicate that the strategy was implemented through five dimensions: purpose, environment, direction, action, and learning. Clear objectives, regulatory support, cross-sectoral coordination, health interventions, monitoring, and evaluation constituted strategic strengths. However, implementation continued to face challenges related to archipelagic geography, resource limitations, delayed reporting, and uneven community participation. Strengthening cross-sectoral collaboration, adaptive planning, community engagement, data management, and continuous evaluation is necessary to improve the effectiveness and sustainability of stunting prevention and reduction efforts in Lingga Subdistrict.

Abstract

Multicultural urban societies face continuing challenges in reconciling cultural identity, intercultural communication, and social integration, while existing research has often examined these dimensions through separate individual, relational, and institutional perspectives. This study investigated their interrelationships through a qualitative comparative documentary analysis of Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. A purposively assembled corpus of 33 scholarly and institutional sources was examined according to conceptual relevance, geographical applicability, and documented evidence concerning multicultural interaction. The analysis employed a common thematic framework covering identity recognition, multiple identification, language negotiation, communication competence, intergroup contact, civic belonging, institutional support, and everyday interaction settings. Within-case examination and cross-case comparison identified recurring patterns and institutional differences without treating qualitative classifications as population-level measurements. The findings indicated that cultural identity continuity was not inherently incompatible with civic participation, although their coexistence was conditioned by social recognition and opportunities for inclusive interaction. Communicative adaptation, reciprocal contact, and cooperative relationships emerged as recurrent themes associated with intercultural engagement rather than independently verified causal mechanisms. Comparative coding indicated differences in the relative prominence of community mediation, multicultural governance arrangements, and institutionalized contact across the three countries. Formal multicultural recognition also remained analytically distinct from everyday intercultural practices. The study contributes a conditional conceptual synthesis of plural integration that connects individual identification, relational competence, and institutional participation. Its explanatory scope is limited by the heterogeneous documentary corpus and the absence of primary empirical measurement.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence-mediated communication introduces new forms of technological participation in interpersonal interaction, raising questions about trust, social presence, and relational connectedness in higher education. This study examined how existing scholarship characterizes these relationships and identified the conditions associated with variation in relational outcomes. A scoping review and framework-based relational mechanism synthesis were conducted using 34 scholarly sources published between 1976 and 2026, identified through bibliographic and publisher-based searches. The evidence base included experimental, cross-sectional, longitudinal, mixed-method, design-oriented, and conceptual investigations. Sources were examined according to communication configuration, degree of AI assistance, disclosure conditions, relational outcomes, and contextual moderators. The synthesis identified three interconnected domains: trust calibration and authenticity, social presence and conversational agency, and interpersonal connectedness in educational communication. Across the reviewed literature, AI assistance was associated with communicative efficiency and responsiveness, while relational evaluations varied according to perceived authenticity, transparency, technological reliability, and human control. Conversational and anthropomorphic cues contributed to perceived social presence without consistently establishing durable interpersonal trust. Evidence involving university students particularly emphasized AI literacy, perceived accuracy, risk perception, and technology adoption, whereas broader relational interpretations drew partly on other populations. The study proposes calibrated trust as an interpretive principle emphasizing proportionate reliance, verification, and human accountability. These findings support differentiated assessments of AI-mediated communication that distinguish technological performance, perceived social presence, and sustained interpersonal relationships.

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that affects thinking, emotional regulation, behavior, and social interaction, often resulting in impaired social functioning. Beyond medical treatment, social rehabilitation is needed to support adaptive abilities and participation in social environments. Music therapy provides a potentially accessible intervention because musical activities can facilitate emotional expression, participation, communication, and interpersonal interaction. This study aimed to describe the implementation of music therapy and its benefits in the social rehabilitation of people with schizophrenia at the Unit Informasi Layanan Sosial (UILS) Rumah Kita Tebet. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with seven informants selected purposively, comprising a UILS manager, social worker, music therapy instructor, companion, and three beneficiaries. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation, then analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings show that music therapy is implemented through assessment, treatment planning, intervention, and evaluation and termination. Activities include breathing exercises, individual and group singing, simple musical instruments, and collective music sessions. The intervention supports emotional stability, participation, self-confidence, social interaction, cooperation, and gradual adaptation to the rehabilitation environment. Music therapy therefore functions not merely as a recreational activity but as a complementary social rehabilitation intervention that supports the development of social functioning among people with schizophrenia.

Abstract

Brand awareness of Gerai Tukucur has a positive and significant effect on consumers’ online purchase decisions for Tuku Coffee, explaining 64.9% of the variance in purchase decisions. This quantitative study employed a survey method involving 67 respondents selected from a population of 200 Instagram followers of @tokokopituku who had purchased or consumed Tuku Coffee. The sample was determined using the Slovin formula with a 10% precision level and selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected in January 2026 using a four-point Likert-scale questionnaire distributed through Instagram direct messages via Google Forms. The instrument was tested on 30 respondents, with all items declared valid and reliable, indicated by Cronbach’s alpha values of 0.866 for brand awareness and 0.874 for purchase decision. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression with SPSS 25. The mean score for brand awareness was 3.45, while the mean score for online purchase decision was 3.62, indicating high levels for both variables. The regression analysis produced the equation Y = 20.300 + 0.778X, with a correlation coefficient of 0.806 and a calculated t value of 10.965 with a significance value of 0.000. The findings demonstrate that stronger brand awareness is associated with higher online purchase decisions for Tuku Coffee among the surveyed followers.
