Abstract

Abstract. This study examines the relationships between inflation, interest rates, and US dollar exchange rates from 2013 to 2023. The main objective is to evaluate the value of the US dollar (USD) and understand how key economic indicators interact. Using advanced quantitative analysis, we identify patterns that define these variables. A macro model incorporating the natural logarithms of the USD Index (USDX), Federal Funds Rate (FFR), and Consumer Price Index (CPI) addresses time-related and growth factors. By tracking inflation, interest rates, and dollar fluctuations, we gain insights into the factors influencing the US economy. The findings highlight the slow adjustment of inflation towards long-term stability and reveal significant causal relationships among the variables. As global financial conditions evolve, this study offers relevant insights for policymakers, economists, and market participants on navigating the dynamics of inflation, interest rates, and exchange rates in today's economic landscape.

Abstract

Abstract. This research paper conducts a comprehensive analysis of the complex relationship between CO2 emissions and economic factors, specifically investigating the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) theory in Malaysia. Using data from 1991 to 2020, the study applies the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) modelling approach developed by Pesaran et al. (2001). The results demonstrate a significant long-term connection between Gross Domestic Product (GDP), trade, and carbon emissions, indicating that economic development plays a crucial role in influencing Malaysia's carbon footprint. Additionally, the inclusion of institutional quality in the model adds another layer of complexity, highlighting the multifaceted nature of the relationship between economic progress and environmental outcomes. Furthermore, examining short-term dynamics using the ARDL model reveals diverse effects over time for variables such as renewable energy and institutional quality, providing a more nuanced understanding of these relationships. These detailed insights are essential for policymakers dealing with the challenges of promoting economic progress while ensuring environmental sustainability. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the interplay between economic variables and CO2 emissions, offering valuable guidance for policymakers striving to strike a balance between economic growth and environmental conservation in Malaysia. Keywords:  Malaysia, autoregressive distributed lag (ardl) modelling, environmental kuznets curve (ekc), carbon dioxide (co2) emissions, gross domestic product (gdp), renewable energy (ren), institutional quality (iq), trade (tr)

Abstract

Abstract. Electricity consumption continues to rise alongside population growth and infrastructure development. Unfortunately, the majority of energy consumption is still reliant on fossil fuels. Commercial buildings and residences are major contributors to electricity consumption, accounting for 63.04% of the total usage. In the healthcare sector, clinics and hospitals also require significant electrical energy, contributing to a 21% rise in national electricity demand. Additionally, occupants' behavior influences electricity consumption by 30%. Faced with these challenges, the use of renewable energy, such as solar power, holds great potential for providing sustainable energy. This research aims to simulate energy consumption to aid in the selection of solar panel technology, considering occupant behavior. By understanding accurate electricity consumption, solar panels that meet the needs can be chosen to ensure long-term sustainability. Simulation of electricity consumption using dynamic system methods is performed to acquire daily electricity consumption data, a critical criterion in solar panel selection. The study's results indicate that user behavior in utilizing electrical appliances significantly impacts overall energy consumption. The study implies the importance of understanding behavior to properly recognize actual electricity consumption. Keywords: Energy consumption, simulation, system dynamic, user behaviour.

Abstract

Abstract.  This study investigates the influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) implementation on recruitment outcomes, focusing on the mediating role of candidate experience and the moderating effects of trust in AI and organizational culture. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from HR professionals across various industries in Indonesia. The results reveal that AI implementation positively affects candidate experience and quality of hires, with candidate experience acting as a significant mediator in these relationships. Trust in AI is found to play a dual role, both directly influencing candidate experience and quality of hires and moderating the relationship between AI implementation and candidate experience. Organizational culture, particularly an innovation-oriented culture, strengthens the impact of AI implementation on candidate experience. The study contributes to the theoretical understanding of candidate experience as a higher-order construct and highlights the importance of trust and cultural alignment in AI-driven recruitment. Practical implications emphasize the need for transparent AI systems, regular feedback, and fostering an innovation-oriented culture to enhance recruitment outcomes. Limitations include the cross-sectional design and the focus on a single country, suggesting opportunities for future research to explore longitudinal effects and cross-cultural comparisons.  Keywords: Artificial intelligence, candidate experience, trust, organizational culture, quality of hires

Abstract

Abstract. The Indonesian government, through the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (Kemdikbudristek) has introduced the Matching Fund (MF) program. MF is a concrete form of government support and intervention to create collaboration and strategic synergy between higher education institutions (universities) and industry. This study aims to investigate and analyze various forms of collaboration and interaction between universities and industry and their impact on innovation performance in the Matching Fund (MF) program. This study uses an interpretive qualitative methodology with eight (8) case studies of the MF program at the University of Surabaya, Indonesia, during the period 2021 to 2023. The results of the study show that the forms of interaction that occur are very diverse, ranging from informal to very formal interactions. This study also shows that the number and form of interactions are not influenced by the duration of the collaboration. The variety of forms of interaction is more determined by the quality of the company and university leaders, good relationships and mutual trust between the two parties, good relationships, coordination, and communication between the persons in charge (PICs) of the two parties. Furthermore, the results of the study show that the MF program provides direct innovation outcome (DIO) and indirect innovation outcome (IIO) results for companies. On the other hand, the MF university-industry collaboration program also provides positive results for the universities in terms of DIO and IIO, but not all university-industry collaboration projects provide maximum results for academic innovation (AI). The duration of cooperation, mutual trust, and good coordination and communication between the persons in charge (PICs) of the two parties all have a greater influence on AI. Keywords: University, Industry, Collaboration, Matching Fund, and Innovation Performance
