Taqwa, Muhammad, Soesilowati, Etty, Mukhlis, Imam
Abstract: Mental health is a strategic issue in economics because it affects the quality of human resources and regional economic productivity. This study aims to analyze the impact of schizophrenia, depression, and suicidal ideation… ion on economic losses across provinces in Indonesia and to examine the role of depression treatment as a mediating variable. The study employs a quantitative approach using explanatory research and a cross-sectional design based on secondary data from 2023. Data were obtained from the Indonesian Health Survey (SKI) by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia and Regional Gross Domestic Product (PDRB) data from the Central Statistics Agency, with 38 provinces in Indonesia as the units of analysis. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, multiple linear regression, and causal mediation analysis. The results of the study indicate that schizophrenia, depression, and suicidal ideation have a significant negative effect on economic loss, as proxied by per capita GRDP. Depression is the variable with the greatest negative impact on regional economic productivity. Furthermore, treatment for depression was found to act as a significant mediator capable of mitigating the negative impact of depression on economic loss. These findings indicate that improved access to mental health services contributes to increased community economic productivity and a reduction in regional economic losses. This study makes a theoretical contribution to the development of development economics and health economics research through the integration of mental health variables and regional economic productivity. Practically, the research results underscore the importance of integrating mental health services into regional development policies to improve the quality of human resources and reduce economic loss in Indonesia.

Supriadi, Soesilowati, Etty, Dwiputri, Inayati Nuraini
Abstract: Clean water services are a basic need for the community, so optimizing the performance of regional drinking water companies (PDAM) is crucial to improve customer satisfaction. However, the main challenge faced by PDAM Balikpapan… likpapan City is low customer satisfaction due to suboptimal service quality, which is largely influenced by employee performance. This study aims to analyze the effect of internal service quality on employee job satisfaction and customer-oriented performance, and to examine the mediating role of job satisfaction at PDAM Perumda Tirta Manuntung in Balikpapan City. This study is motivated by the importance of improving the quality of public services in the clean water utility sector, which requires organizations to be able to create an effective internal service system to support the quality of services provided to the community. This study uses an explanatory approach. Quantitative data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 196 employees, selected using the Slovin formula, while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews and field observations. Data analysis used Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to examine the relationship between variables. The results show that internal service quality has a positive and significant influence on employee job satisfaction and customer-oriented performance. Job satisfaction was also found to have a positive and significant influence on customer-oriented employee performance. Furthermore, job satisfaction mediated the relationship between internal service quality and customer-oriented employee performance. These findings strengthen the relevance of the Service-Profit Chain Model in the context of public service organizations, particularly regional water utilities. This study provides theoretical contributions through the development of the Service-Profit Chain Model in the public utility sector, as well as practical contributions for PDAM management in formulating strategies to continuously improve internal service quality, job satisfaction, and customer service quality.

Riu, Isma Azis, Radjab, Irsan, Arif, Hery Maulana, Haeruddin, M. Ilham Wardhana, Aswar, Nurul Fadilah
Abstract: Influencer marketing has emerged as a dominant strategy within the digital marketing landscape, particularly in the Indonesian beauty industry. This study investigates how consumers in Makassar City develop and sustain trust… rust in influencer-based marketing content on social media platforms. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 purposively selected participants who actively consume beauty content on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis encompassing open coding, axial coding, and selective coding procedures. The findings reveal five core themes: (1) authenticity as the primary driver of trust formation; (2) the negative impact of excessive commercialization on perceived credibility; (3) the role of influencer expertise and product knowledge in legitimizing recommendations; (4) parasocial relationships as amplifiers of emotional attachment and brand loyalty; and (5) consumer skepticism as an emerging critical evaluation strategy. The study demonstrates that trust remains the central mediating variable linking influencer characteristics to purchase intentions. Consumers exhibit nuanced evaluation behaviors, distinguishing between genuine advocacy and sponsored content. The research contributes theoretically by integrating Source Credibility Theory, Parasocial Interaction Theory, and the Trust-Commitment Theory within the influencer marketing context. Managerially, the findings suggest that brands should prioritize authentic, transparent, and expertise-driven influencer collaborations rather than high-volume promotional campaigns.

Financial Literacy, Lifestyle, And Parental Income On Financial Management Behavior With Self-Control As A Mediating Variable (Case Study of College Students in Malang City)

Farikha, Nadia Rahma, Farahiyah Sartika
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy, lifestyle, and parental income on financial management behavior, with self-control as an intervening variable among college students in Malang City. Using a… quantitative explanatory research approach, data were collected through questionnaires from 160 respondents and analyzed using SEM-PLS. The results showed that financial literacy, lifestyle, and parental income had a positive and significant effect on financial management behavior.

This indicates that college students' financial management behavior is more directly influenced by financial knowledge, lifestyle, and financial support from parents. This study implies that improving financial literacy and self-control needs to be strengthened to support better financial management.
