Abstract

This study explores the complex relationships between financial literacy, financial behavior, other financial skills, and financial well-being, focusing on consumer mental budgeting in Indonesia. This study uses path analysis to examine how financial literacy is a foundational element that enhances financial behavior and other financial skills, ultimately contributing to improved financial well-being. This research uses structural equation modeling to estimate the relationship among the variables. This research surveyed the 15-58 age group in several urban areas of Java Island. The survey collected information on the indicators that constructed the latent variables. The results indicate that DFL is influenced by social-economic standing. The findings of this study reveal a strong positive correlation between financial literacy and financial behavior (path coefficient = 0.804), indicating that individuals with higher financial literacy are more likely to engage in effective budgeting practices. This study highlights the significant impact of financial behavior on financial well-being (path coefficient = 0.613), indicating that sound financial management is directly correlated with increased financial security and satisfaction. Although the relationship between other financial skills and financial well-being is positive (path coefficient = 0.219), the relationship is less pronounced than the direct effects of financial literacy and financial behavior. The results of this study underscore the importance of financial literacy as a catalyst for fostering positive financial behavior and improving overall financial well-being. This study contributes to the understanding of consumer mental budgeting. It offers valuable insights for policymakers and financial educators aiming to improve financial literacy and behavior among consumers in Indonesia.

Abstract

Despite its significance, a significant proportion of students encounter challenges when engaging with coursework involving calculations. As a result, the study examines the perceived influence of Financial Accounting Anxiety on the academic performance of business education students in colleges of education in Kwara State, Nigeria. The population comprised students across three (3) State-owned Colleges of Education, totalling 1,016, and the sample size was determined using Krejcie and Morgan's (1970) method, yielding 279. However, convenience sampling was used to distribute the questionnaire to relevant students. The data were obtained using a Google Forms questionnaire shared via WhatsApp among students. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were employed to understand the data. A significant relationship was found between complex accounting standards and students' academic performance. Meanwhile, no significant effect of low self-efficacy on academic performance. An emotional response was found to be equally significantly related to the students’ academic performance. Finally, poor study habits were found to influence academic performance. The inherent involvement in accounting principles and standards often creates barriers to comprehension, thereby affecting students' ability to perform effectively in financial accounting courses. This suggests that the design and delivery of accounting curricula need to consider the cognitive load imposed by these standards and how they may exacerbate academic challenges for some students. Facilitators should endeavour to break down complex accounting methods into smaller, more digestible modules.

Abstract

A number of previous empirical studies have attempted to reveal the existence of This study aims to analyse the elements of the fraud star that can affect the occurrence of financial statement fraud in Consumer Non-Cyclicals sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). There are 213 samples from 71 companies in the Consumer Non-Cyclicals sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2021-2023 period. Hypothesis testing is carried out through panel data regression analysis using EViews 12 to test the influence between the dependent variable and the independent variable. Based on the results of partial testing that has been carried out, this study shows that the financial target variable and Ineffective monitoring have no effect on financial statement fraud. Change in auditor, change in director and integrity have a negative effect on financial statement fraud. Meanwhile, financial stability has a positive effect on financial statement fraud. So, with this, it is hoped that future researchers can use different fraud theories and use other dependent variables such as asset misuse or corruption.

Abstract

Amid rising investor scrutiny and ESG-driven valuation pressures, the governance quality of consumer goods firms in emerging markets remains inconsistent. This study investigates how transparency, board independence, institutional Ownership, and audit committee effectiveness influence firm value, addressing the urgent need for integrated governance strategies in Indonesia’s Primary Consumer Goods sector. Using panel data from 2020 to 2024 and a fixed-effects regression model, the study tests the direct and moderating effects of governance variables. Results confirm that transparency and board independence significantly enhance firm value, while institutional ownership and audit committee effectiveness not only exert direct influence but also strengthen governance-performance linkages through interaction effects. The study contributes to governance literature by validating the layered nature of internal and external mechanisms and introducing a dual moderation framework. Its novelty lies in empirically demonstrating how governance synergies, rather than isolated mechanisms, drive valuation outcomes. Practically, the findings urge firms to institutionalise governance audits, attract strategic investors, and reinforce board-audit alignment. The study offers actionable insights for regulators, investors, and boards seeking to optimise governance for sustainable value creation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of ESG Disclosure on financial performance, with Financial Slack serving as a moderating variable. The study employs an explanatory quantitative approach using 240 firm-year observations from 60 non-financial companies listed in the IDX ESG Leaders index in Indonesia over the period 2021–2024. Data analysis is conducted using panel data regression with a Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) approach, processed through EViews software. The results indicate that ESG Disclosure does not have a significant effect on corporate financial performance, either when measured by Return on Equity (ROE) or by individual components of the DuPont analysis, namely Net Profit Margin (NPM), Total Asset Turnover (TAT), and Equity Multiplier (EM). Furthermore, Financial Slack is found to strengthen the positive effect of ESG Disclosure on Net Profit Margin (NPM). Overall, these findings reinforce the Resource-Based View (RBV) perspective, which posits that ESG Disclosure as an intangible resource requires the support of adequate Financial Slack as a tangible resource to create complementary capabilities and achieve sustainable competitive advantage. The findings provide practical insights for management to improve the quality of ESG disclosure and maintain sufficient levels of Financial Slack so that sustainability investments can generate long-term financial value. In addition, the results suggest that sustainability commitment supported by financial flexibility serves as an important signal for investors and regulators in assessing corporate performance and competitiveness

Abstract

This research analyzes the integration of ethical dimensions and legal frameworks within digital healthcare service delivery systems in the era of medical technology transformation. The research used a qualitative methodology with a case study design, performed in XXX City, and included 28 participants including healthcare staff, patients, system administrators, and health legislation specialists. Data was collected via in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and non-participant observation, thereafter analyzed using thematic analysis. The theoretical foundation of the study is based on the integration of principlism theory, rights-based theory, the technology acceptance model, healthcare economics theory, and sustainable business model theory. The study's findings indicate that the implementation of digital health technology faces considerable challenges in balancing operational efficiency with the protection of patient rights. The findings identify five new dimensions of service provider obligations: digital competence, data management, digital communication, lifelong learning, and digital equity. An analysis of sustainable business methods reveals a tension between profitability, accessibility, and service quality. The research emphasizes the need to redefine patient rights in the digital age, create a comprehensive regulatory framework, and adopt a holistic approach to sustainability that includes the triple bottom line. In Indonesia, including multicultural perspectives, especially Islamic values via the concepts of maslaha and Maqasid Shariah, is essential for developing an ethical and sustainable digital health system.The five theoretical frameworks are integrated through a multi-layered analytical design: principlism provides the ethical foundation; rights-based theory establishes the legal basis for patient rights; TAM explains technology adoption behavior among healthcare providers; healthcare economics contextualizes structural constraints such as market failure and equity gaps; and sustainable business model theory ensures long-term operational viability. Islamic principles were operationalized by applying maslaha (public interest) as an evaluative lens when weighing trade-offs between efficiency and patient welfare, and Maqasid Shariah as a deductive coding framework across five objectives: protection of life, intellect, progeny, wealth, and dignity.

Abstract

The increasing use of technology in business activities has the potential to drive higher consumerist behavior, especially when business actors have limited financial literacy and inadequate financial management skills, particularly in investment decision-making. This study aims to examine the effect of accounting information quality and financial self-efficacy on financial management behavior, with love of money as a moderating variable. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method targeting micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSMEs) owners spread across Palu City, Donggala Regency, and Sigi Regency. The final sample of the study consisted of 100 respondents determined through purposive sampling technique. The data were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results of the study indicate that accounting information quality, financial self-efficacy, and love of money have a significant effect on financial management behavior. However, the moderation test results show that love of money does not moderate the relationship between accounting information quality and financial management behavior. Conversely, love of money is proven to moderate the relationship between financial self-efficacy and financial management behavior in a negative direction, thereby weakening the relationship. These findings support the Theory of Planned Behavior, which emphasizes the importance of accounting information quality and individuals’ belief in their ability to manage finances to improve the financial management behavior of MSMEs

Abstract

This study examines the mediating role of locus of control in the relationship between openness, conscientiousness, and professional skepticism among public sector auditors at the Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia (BPK RI) Representative Office of Papua Province. Using a quantitative explanatory design, data were collected through a survey questionnaire distributed to all 150 auditors using a saturated sampling approach, with 132 valid responses analyzed. The study employed SmartPLS 4 to test the measurement and structural models. The results indicate that openness and conscientiousness have positive and significant effects on professional skepticism. Both personality traits also positively influence locus of control, which in turn significantly affects professional skepticism. Furthermore, locus of control partially mediates the effects of openness and conscientiousness on professional skepticism. These findings suggest that auditors with stronger openness, conscientiousness, and internal locus of control tend to demonstrate a higher level of professional skepticism in conducting audits. The study contributes to the auditing literature by extending Social Cognitive Theory in explaining the psychological mechanism underlying skeptical judgment in the public sector audit context. Practically, the findings imply that audit institutions should strengthen auditors’ psychological development through training, supervision, and recruitment policies that support adaptive personality traits and internal control orientation to improve audit quality and public accountability.

Abstract

The development of future teachers is not only determined by their mastery of pedagogical competencies, but also by soft skills. However, the evaluation of soft skills in teacher education in Indonesia is still dominated by self, peer, and supervising teacher assessment, while the voices of students are often neglected. This study aims to analyze the differences of soft skills assessment of student teachers participating in the Asistensi Mengajar (AM) program based on a 360-degree feedback approach, as well as to examine the differences between student teachers and students in each dimension of soft skills. This study uses a comparative quantitative design involving 66 student teachers, 198 students, 198 peers, and 66 supervising teachers. Data were collected using a 5-point Likert scale-based soft skills instrument that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn's post hoc test to examine differences between assessor groups (H1), as well as the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test to compare self-student assessments (H2a–H2d). The results showed a significant difference between the groups of assessors (p < 0.05), particularly between student teachers and students, and between student teachers and their peers. In addition, all dimensions of soft skills showed significant differences between self-assessment and student assessment. Students rated student teachers' communication, problem-solving, and moral attitudes lower, but gave higher scores on adaptability. This study concludes that student voice is a valid and authentic component of evaluation that needs to be integrated into the teacher education assessment system.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of Green Intellectual Capital (GIC) on Green Innovation Performance (GIP), with Environmental Knowledge Sharing (EKS) as a mediating variable in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period. The increasing pressure for sustainability and environmentally friendly practices has encouraged firms to optimize their green knowledge resources to enhance innovation performance. This research adopts a quantitative approach using secondary data collected from annual and sustainability reports. The sample was determined through purposive sampling, resulting in 57 firm-year observations. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings indicate that GIC has a positive and significant effect on both GIP and EKS, suggesting that well-managed green intellectual resources contribute to improved innovation outcomes and facilitate knowledge exchange within organizations. In addition, EKS has a positive and significant effect on GIP and plays a mediating role in the relationship between GIC and GIP. This implies that the effectiveness of GIC in enhancing innovation performance is strengthened through the process of environmental knowledge sharing. This study contributes to the literature by integrating the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Knowledge-Based View (KBV) in explaining the mechanism through which intellectual capital drives green innovation. Practically, the results provide insights for companies to develop structured knowledge-sharing practices and optimize intellectual capital to support sustainable innovation strategies and long-term competitive advantage.
