Dahlian Persadha, Pratama, Judijanto, Loso, Susanti, Melly, Kreshna Reza, Heru
Abstract: Security is a crucial aspect in the digital age, especially in the management and protection of information. As the volume of information processed increases, the need to organize knowledge and provide adequate security… becomes more pressing. This research emphasizes the importance of cybersecurity in the context of digital libraries, which must comply with certain technological and regulatory standards to protect user data and guarantee privacy when accessing electronic resources. Libraries face various challenges in protecting personal data on their electronic resources. This research addresses topics such as user privacy, data encryption, access management, and compliance with privacy laws. By addressing these issues comprehensively, libraries can ensure the protection of user privacy while optimizing the benefits of digital resources in today's information environment. The October 2023 cyberattack by a hacker group known as Rhysida on the British Library's internet information system emphasizes the importance of cybersecurity and data privacy for digital libraries. This research aims to provide insights and solutions to address these challenges, ensuring digital libraries can operate securely and efficiently.

Boardroom Strategies: How Governance Structures and Firm Size Influence Accounting Conservatism

Vista Yulianti, Dian Sulistyorini Wulandari, Satinah Satinah
Abstract: This study explores the intricate relationship between corporate governance mechanisms—specifically Board Directors, Independent Commissioners, and the Audit Committee—and Accounting Conservatism, focusing on the moderating… erating effects of Firm Size. The findings reveal that Board Directors have a statistically significant impact on Accounting Conservatism, primarily through their ability to provide oversight and challenge aggressive financial practices. However, the influence of Board Directors is moderated by Firm Size, as larger organizations often exhibit complexities that dilute their effectiveness. Similarly, the study underscores the pivotal role of Independent Commissioners in promoting conservative accounting practices. However, their impact is not amplified by Firm Size. The pressures faced by larger firms can lead to more aggressive financial reporting, thereby limiting the effectiveness of Independent Commissioners. Additionally, the Audit Committee is identified as a crucial governance mechanism in fostering Accounting Conservatism, but its effectiveness is also diminished in larger firms due to complex organizational structures. Overall, the research underscores the critical need for governance frameworks to be adaptive and tailored to the unique challenges posed by Firm Size. By recognizing and addressing these complexities, organizations can enhance the integrity and transparency of their financial reporting, thereby fostering trust among stakeholders and contributing to corporate accountability.

An Analysis of Denotative and Connotative Meaning in Students’ Utterances in the Campus Environment

Moria Afriani Stefani Silaban, Bernieke Anggita Ristia Damanik
Abstract: This research is designed to examine how students use both denotative and connotative meanings in their everyday utterances within the campus environment. In daily communication, students do not rely solely on literal meanings;… anings; instead, their language often conveys implied messages shaped by context, cultural background, and patterns of social interaction. To explore this phenomenon, the study applies a qualitative descriptive approach, focusing on naturally occurring conversations among students in various campus settings. Data were collected through careful observation and documentation of students’ spoken interactions, allowing for an in-depth understanding of how meaning is constructed in real-life situations. The results indicate that students actively employ both denotative and connotative meanings in their speech. However, connotative meanings appear more dominant, particularly in informal contexts such as casual conversations with peers. This tendency highlights the role of language as a flexible and dynamic tool for expression. Furthermore, the frequent use of connotative language demonstrates students’ creativity in conveying ideas, emotions, and attitudes. It also reflects how language functions as a marker of social identity, helping students build relationships and express group belonging within the academic community.

Valent Theresya S. Br Pardede, Tia Maria Hasibuan, Tengku Syalia Faradiva, Uli Greace Ananda Sitorus, Handriyani Dwilita
Abstract: Studi literatur sistematis ini bertujuan untuk: (1) mensintesis dan menganalisis inkonsistensi temuan penelitian empiris mengenai efektivitas teori Fraud Pentagon dalam mendeteksi kecurangan laporan keuangan di Indonesia;… ; (2) mengidentifikasi sumber variasi hasil yang meliputi variasi operasionalisasi variabel, konteks penelitian, dan perbedaan metodologi; serta (3) mengembangkan dan mengusulkan seperangkat indikator operasional yang lebih komprehensif dan terstandarisasi untuk kelima elemen Fraud Pentagon berdasarkan konsolidasi tubuh literatur yang ada. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan systematic literature review dengan metode kualitatif deskriptif-analitis. Sumber data utama adalah 30 artikel jurnal ilmiah yang dipublikasikan pada periode 2020-2025, yang telah dipetakan sebelumnya. Teknik analisis data dilakukan melalui analisis konten tematik (thematic content analysis) dan sintesis naratif (narrative synthesis) untuk mengidentifikasi pola, kontradiksi, dan mengembangkan kerangka konseptual yang lebih kuat. Analisis mengungkap tiga temuan utama. Pertama, terdapat inkonsistensi hasil yang signifikan antar penelitian; misalnya, Financial Target (ROA) signifikan pada studi BUMN namun tidak signifikan pada sektor keuangan. Kedua, inkonsistensi ini bersumber dari: (a) variasi penggunaan proksi variabel (misal, Pressure diukur dengan ROA, leverage, atau perubahan aset), (b) pengaruh konteks spesifik (sektor, tata kelola), dan (c) perbedaan alat ukur kecurangan (F-Score, Beneish M-Score, studi kualitatif). Ketiga, sebagai kontribusi utama, penelitian ini berhasil mengembangkan 12 indikator Fraud Pentagon yang diperkaya dengan proksi empiris yang kuat dari literatur, seperti menambahkan frekuensi rapat dewan untuk Ineffective Monitoring dan kompleksitas kontrak untuk Nature of Industry. Kerangka indikator yang dikembangkan memberikan implikasi teoretis dengan memperkuat sifat kontingensi teori Fraud Pentagon, serta implikasi praktis bagi regulator, auditor, dan dewan komisaris sebagai alat risk assessment yang lebih komprehensif. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan uji empiris lebih lanjut terhadap indikator yang dikembangkan dan integrasi pendekatan kuantitatif-kualitatif dalam penelitian mendatang.
