tion, a place to share problems, and motivation. However, problems within romantic relationships, such as lack of communication, dishonesty, betrayal, and lack of family approval, can also become sources of emotional and psychological pressure. This study aims to describe the dynamics of romantic relationships and their impact on the mental health of UIN Palopo students. This study employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. The informants consisted of four UIN Palopo students selected using purposive sampling. The informants consisted of one male student and three female students from the Islamic Guidance and Counseling, Islamic Religious Education, and Islamic Education Management study programs, all of whom were eighth-semester students. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the dynamics of romantic relationships experienced by students developed through several stages, namely introduction, emotional closeness, commitment, conflict, and the end of the relationship. Communication, attention, trust, openness, and emotional attachment were important elements in the development and maintenance of relationships. Romantic relationships had positive impacts in the form of emotional support, comfort, attention, a place to share stories and problems, and increased motivation. Meanwhile, negative impacts included sadness, disappointment, feelings of loss, stress, anxiety, frustration, mood changes, difficulty regulating emotions, decreased appetite, loss of motivation, and reduced social interaction. Thus, romantic relationships can have both positive and negative impacts on students' mental health depending on the dynamics and experiences that occur within the relationship.

a qualitative approach with a single-case study design at PT RBP in Tuban Regency. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with nine informants at strategic, managerial, and operational levels, supported by observation and company documentation. Data were analyzed thematically with the assistance of NVivo, and validity was assessed through source and method triangulation. The findings show that PT RBP implements an adaptive-conservative financial management strategy oriented toward cash-flow stability while maintaining the ability to respond to changes in the business environment. The strategy is realized through the use of internal capital, cash-flow control, phased development, cost monitoring, customer screening, transaction flexibility, and diversification of banks and suppliers. The strategy is reinforced by cross-functional communication and an adaptive organizational culture. The findings indicate that the combination of financial prudence and adaptive capability constitutes an important mechanism for maintaining project continuity, financial stability, and operational resilience amid VUCA pressures.
Abstract:Maintaining employee commitment is particularly important in palm oil mill operations, where shift work, physical demands, and limited career development opportunities may affect employees’ attachment to the organization.…
on. This study examines the influence of work-life balance and career development on the organizational commitment of operational employees at the Rimba Belian Palm Oil Mill Unit, Region 5, PT Perkebunan Nusantara IV. A quantitative associative design was employed, involving all 114 operational employees through a census approach. Data were collected using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed through multiple linear regression after completing instrument and classical assumption tests. The findings indicate that work-life balance and career development each have a positive and significant influence on organizational commitment. Both variables also jointly contribute significantly to strengthening employees’ commitment to the organization. Work-life balance showed a relatively stronger contribution, suggesting that employees’ ability to manage work demands and personal responsibilities is particularly important in a shift-based operational environment. This study extends the discussion of organizational commitment to the palm oil agro-industry, which remains less frequently examined than service and public-sector organizations. The findings imply that management should improve shift arrangements, rest periods, access to training, and the transparency of promotion and career development processes to maintain employees’ long-term commitment

Data were collected through questionnaires using a Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS software, including validity, reliability, classical assumption, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination analyses. The results indicate that work discipline has a positive and significant effect on employee job satisfaction. The work environment also has a positive and significant effect on employee job satisfaction. Simultaneously, work discipline and work environment significantly affect employee job satisfaction with a coefficient of determination of 52.1%. These findings imply that improving work discipline and creating a conducive work environment are important strategies for enhancing employee job satisfaction

fitness that plays an important role in supporting physical activity and cognitive function. The ability of attention and learning focus is an important aspect in the learning process because it affects the understanding of material and student learning outcomes. This research uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The research sample consisted of 20 Physical Education Study Program students selected using a purposive sampling technique. Cardiorespiratory endurance was measured using the Multistage Fitness Test (MFT) to obtain an estimated VO₂max, while attention and learning focus were measured using a Likert scale questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using the Pearson Product Moment correlation test. The results showed a positive and significant relationship between cardiorespiratory endurance and student attention and learning focus (r = 0.587; p < 0.05). These findings indicate that students with better levels of cardiorespiratory endurance tend to have higher levels of focus and attention during the learning process.

a survey method. The study population consisted of 33 employees, all of whom were sampled through a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using validity tests, reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, partial tests, simultaneous tests, and coefficients of determination using SPSS 27. The results showed that horizontal communication, vertical communication, and diagonal communication each had a positive and significant effect on employee morale. Simultaneously, the three variables also had a significant effect on morale. Vertical communication was the variable that had the greatest influence compared to the other two variables. The Adjusted R Square value of 0.840 indicated that 84% of the variation in morale could be explained by the three forms of organizational communication, while 16% was influenced by other factors outside the research model. These findings confirm that effective organizational communication plays an important role in increasing employee morale and supporting the creation of more optimal public service performance.

piritual intelligence, which enables nurses to find meaning and purpose in the care they provide. However, evidence suggests that both nurses' caring behavior and spiritual intelligence still need improvement. This study aimed to examine the relationship between spiritual intelligence and nurses' caring behavior in inpatient wards. This study employed a quantitative analytical correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 53 nurses were recruited using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using the Spiritual Intelligence Self-Report Inventory (SISRI-24) and the Caring Behavior Inventory (CBI). Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test with a significance level of p < 0.05. The findings revealed that less than half of the respondents (47.2%) had low spiritual intelligence, while more than half (54.7%) demonstrated poor caring behavior. Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between spiritual intelligence and nurses' caring behavior (p = 0.001). Nurses with higher levels of spiritual intelligence tended to demonstrate better caring behavior than those with lower levels of spiritual intelligence. Hospital management is encouraged to consider nurses' spiritual intelligence as an important aspect in efforts to enhance caring behavior and improve the overall quality of nursing services.

dengan kematangan karier adalah keikutsertaan siswa dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan kematangan karier antara siswa yang mengikuti kegiatan ekstrakurikuler dengan siswa yang tidak mengikuti kegiatan ekstrakurikuler di Madrasah Aliyah Negeri Kota Serang. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode komparatif. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 404 siswa yang berasal dari MAN 1 Kota Serang dan MAN 2 Kota Serang, yang dipilih menggunakan teknik stratified random sampling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan angket kematangan karier yang disusun berdasarkan enam aspek kematangan karier yaitu orientasi karier, informasi dan perencanaan karier, konsistensi pilihan karier, pemantapan karakteristik diri, kemandirian dalam memilih karier, serta kebijaksanaan dalam memilih karier. Data dianalisis melalui uji normalitas, uji homogenitas, dan uji komparatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat kematangan karier siswa secara umum berada pada kategori baik dengan nilai rata-rata sebesar 194,16. Namun demikian, hasil pengujian hipotesis menunjukkan tidak terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara siswa yang mengikuti kegiatan ekstrakurikuler dan siswa yang tidak mengikuti kegiatan ekstrakurikuler (Sig. = 0,347 > 0,05). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa keikutsertaan dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler bukan merupakan faktor yang membedakan tingkat kematangan karier siswa. Kematangan karier diduga lebih dipengaruhi oleh berbagai faktor lain, seperti pemahaman diri, dukungan keluarga, pengalaman belajar, layanan bimbingan karier, dan akses terhadap informasi karier.
Career maturity is an important aspect that students need to develop in preparing for future educational and occupational choices. One factor that is assumed to be related to career maturity is participation in extracurricular activities. This study aimed to examine the differences in career maturity between students who participated in extracurricular activities and those who did not in State Islamic Senior High Schools (Madrasah Aliyah Negeri) in Serang City. This study employed a quantitative approach using a comparative research design. The sample consisted of 404 students from MAN 1 Serang City and MAN 2 Serang City selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a career maturity questionnaire six dimensions of career maturity: career orientation, career information and planning, consistency of career preferences, crystallization of self-characteristics, career independence, and wisdom in career choice. Data were analyzed using normality testing, homogeneity testing, and comparative analysis. The results indicated that students' career maturity was generally at a good level, with a mean score of 194.16. However, the hypothesis testing revealed no significant difference in career maturity between students who participated in extracurricular activities and those who did not (Sig. = 0.347 > 0.05). These findings suggest that participation in extracurricular activities is not a distinguishing factor in students' career maturity. Career maturity is likely influenced by other factors, including self-understanding, family support, learning experiences, career guidance services, and access to career information.
