ariable. The quantitative method was employed with a population of 190 ASN employees, and a sample of 127 ASN. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Smart Partial Least Squares (PLS) technique. The research findings indicate a positive and significant influence of Effectiveness, TPP, Work Motivation, and Work Discipline on the performance of ASN in the Medan City Health Service. Additionally, there is a positive and significant impact of Effectiveness, TPP, and Work Motivation on the performance of ASN moderated by Work Discipline. The conclusion drawn from this research is that Work Discipline has the most significant influence on the performance of ASN, while TPP has the least impact. Recommendations involve enhancing focus on developing Work Discipline to significantly improve employee performance. Despite TPP having the smallest impact, strategic considerations are still necessary in incentive management to maintain employee motivation.
Abstract:Indonesia is known for its rich agriculture, and rice is the staple food of the Indonesian people. The production of rice comes from rice fields, which are often managed by their owners or tenant farmers. However, not all…
l rice field owners can efficiently manage their resources, which is why they can involve rice cultivators to help them out. The relationship between the owner of the rice fields and the tenant farmers is divided into two types of cooperation: maro and mertelu. Additionally, this type of cooperation can also be carried out in dry land areas, such as coconut plantations, coffee plantations, and more. This study focuses on the actors involved in maro and mertelu agreements in Banyumas Regency, Cilacap Regency, Kebumen Regency, Banjarnegara Regency, and Purbalingga Regency. The population size of this study is unknown, but based on calculations, a minimum sample size of 97 respondents is required. The criterion for selecting respondents is that they have entered into a maro or mertelu agreement and reside in one of the aforementioned regencies. The findings of the study indicate that individuals who have entered into maro or mertelu agreements do so for a variety of reasons. These reasons include supplementing their income to meet basic and other needs, ensuring they have a job and are not unemployed, and following the orders of the landowner. Some individuals also participate in these agreements because they are unable to purchase their own rice fields and want to work in the industry, while others do so to help those in need.

Path analysis will be utilized to justify the impact of exogenous factors on endogenous factors. The study's findings revealed significant direct effects in the path of substruktur 1, indicating that career expansion (X2) has a significant impact on workforce performance. Additionally, the exogenous factor of career expansion has a substantial and direct impact on the business entity's culture in path substruktur 2. In path substruktur 3, it was observed that training has a significant and substantial impact on career expansion. Subsequently, the Sobel test was employed to explore the non-contingent impact of training on employee performance, mediated by the organizational culture, which showed a significant and direct relationship. Similarly, the non-contingent impact of career expansion on employee performance, mediated by the organizational culture, demonstrated a significant and direct association.

implemented under the State program 'Social and Economic Development of Regions,' assessing their impact on land use. The projects were categorized as either 'changing' or 'replacing,' based on their degree of impact, scale, and transformations between areas. The study also examined the population distribution by altitude zones and settlement levels. The satellite images were decoded and the land use areas were divided into classes. The level of land use between 2001 and 2020 was analyzed using the support vector machine (SVM) method to calculate the scale, difference, and regional growth rate of individual areas. The changes that occurred were identified and explained. Additionally, the transitions between categories were studied, the main changing and expanding areas were identified, and the increasing and decreasing tendencies between classes were examined.
Abstract:Muaro Sentajo possesses the potential to be developed as a production hub for native orchid species due to its location within the natural habitat of orchid species in Kuantan Singingi Regency, directly bordering the Sentajo…
tajo Raya protected forest. Furthermore, the village has an underutilized female labor potential, organized within the Family Welfare Movement (Pemberdayaan dan Kesejahteraan Keluarga / PKK) as the foundational collective for rural women in Muaro Sentajo. This initiative aims to provide knowledge on native orchid species, cultivation techniques, integrated systems with stingless bees (kelulut), and digital marketing. The program implemented a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, consisting of asset mapping, practical cultivation workshops, e-commerce platform development, and four months of intensive mentoring. This empowerment program successfully established an active orchid breeding group managing more than 15 native orchid species. Additionally, 83.66% of the participants demonstrated proficiency in operating digital marketing channels (Instagram and Shopee), resulting in the first independent commercial sales of local orchid products. The integration of local ecological assets with modern digital marketing proved effective in enhancing the economic independence of rural women and promoting sustainable community development.
Abstract:This study aims to analyze the effect of Initial Public Offering (IPO) on Return on Assets (ROA) by considering Firm Size, Liquidity, Leverage, and Tangibility in companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The…
he study adopts a quantitative explanatory research design using secondary data obtained from audited annual financial statements of companies that conducted IPOs during the observation period. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, while panel data were analyzed using the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) to examine the relationships among the variables. The findings indicate that IPO has a positive but insignificant effect on ROA, suggesting that additional capital raised through public offerings does not immediately improve corporate profitability. Firm Size and Leverage exhibit significant negative effects on ROA, indicating that larger firms may experience operational inefficiencies, while excessive debt increases financial burdens and reduces profitability. Conversely, Liquidity and Tangibility show positive but insignificant effects on ROA. Simultaneously, IPO, Firm Size, Liquidity, Leverage, and Tangibility significantly influence ROA, with the model explaining 59.11% of the variation in profitability. These findings imply that post-IPO financial performance depends not only on capital acquisition but also on effective asset utilization, prudent debt management, and efficient operational strategies. The study contributes to the literature on post-IPO corporate performance and provides practical insights for managers and investors in evaluating financial performance after public offerings
Abstract:The increasing demand for corporate transparency in sustainability practices, the development of ESG reporting regulations in Indonesia, and the persistent issues of credibility in disclosures such as greenwashing and inconsistent…
consistent information quality indicate that Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosures are not always perceived positively by the market. This condition is important because ESG disclosures that are not supported by substantive implementation may be viewed as an additional cost, risk, or merely a form of compliance, which in turn may reduce firm value. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of environmental disclosure, social disclosure, and governance disclosure on firm value by incorporating independent commissioners as a moderating variable. Firm value is measured using Tobin’s Q because it reflects market valuation of the company’s performance and growth prospects. The sample consists of companies included in the SRI-KEHATI index during the 2020–2024 period, with a total of 227 unbalanced panel observations analyzed using panel data regression. The results show that environmental disclosure, social disclosure, and governance disclosure have a negative and significant effect on firm value. Independent commissioners are able to weaken the negative effect of environmental disclosure and governance disclosure on firm value, but they are unable to moderate the relationship between social disclosure and firm value. These findings suggest that ESG disclosure in sustainability-oriented companies is not yet fully perceived as a value-creating factor when it is not supported by convincing implementation quality. Practically, these findings are intended to encourage companies not only to increase the extent of ESG disclosure, but also to strengthen the substantive implementation and supervisory role of independent commissioners to enhance the credibility of sustainability information
Abstract:The purpose of this study is to examine how product quality influences consumers' decisions to buy electric cars in Makassar City, using brand image as a mediating factor. The swift expansion of electric vehicle adoption…
necessitates a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing customer purchasing behavior in this nascent sector. A quantitative methodology utilizing an explanatory study design was implemented to examine the causal links among the variables. The population comprised consumers who had acquired or utilized electric vehicles in Makassar City, while the precise population size remained unspecified. A purposeful non-probability sampling strategy was employed, resulting in 105 respondents who completed a structured online questionnaire sent using Google Forms. The data were analyzed utilizing SEM-PLS with SmartPLS to investigate both direct and indirect effects among the constructs. The findings demonstrate that product quality positively and significantly impacts purchase decisions, product quality positively and significantly influences brand image, and brand image positively and significantly affects purchase decisions. Additionally, brand image serves as a partial mediator in the correlation between product quality and purchasing decisions. The findings indicate that superior product quality in electric vehicles is more influential in influencing purchasing decisions when it concurrently cultivates a favorable brand image in consumers' perceptions, thus offering strategic insights for manufacturers and distributors in formulating marketing strategies that enhance both product quality and brand image.

Abstract:This study aims to map the intellectual structure and global research trends regarding service quality and customer loyalty in the banking industry through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis.…
Research data were obtained from the Scopus database covering the period from 2018 to 2025 using the keywords service quality, customer loyalty, and banking industry. The literature selection process was conducted using the PRISMA protocol, resulting in 33 scientific articles that met the inclusion criteria for further analysis. Bibliometric analysis was performed using VOSviewer software to map author collaboration networks, keyword relationships, and the evolution of research themes. The research findings indicate that the concepts of service quality, customer satisfaction, and customer loyalty are core themes dominating the research literature in the banking sector. Additionally, the study highlights the emergence of new themes related to customer experience, digital services, corporate social responsibility, and customer relationship management, which enrich the understanding of customer loyalty formation. Bibliometric visualizations also indicate that research collaboration remains relatively limited and scattered across several small groups of authors, despite the research having been reviewed on a global scale. These findings confirm that research on service quality and customer loyalty in the banking industry continues to evolve toward a more multidimensional approach in tandem with the ongoing digital transformation of services.
