licy outcomes but also by the quality of governance practices implemented by local governments. This study aimed to examine the influence of policy transparency, public participation, bureaucratic responsiveness, service quality, and public trust on the perceived effectiveness of local economic policy. A quantitative research approach with an explanatory research design was employed. Primary data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to 200 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The collected data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), including descriptive statistics, validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, the coefficient of determination (R²), t-tests, and F-tests. The results revealed that all measurement instruments were valid and reliable, and the data satisfied the assumptions required for multiple linear regression analysis. The findings indicated that policy transparency, public participation, bureaucratic responsiveness, service quality, and public trust each have a positive and significant influence on the perceived effectiveness of local economic policy. Furthermore, the F-test demonstrated that all independent variables simultaneously have a significant effect on the dependent variable. Among the five predictors, public trust was identified as the strongest determinant of perceived policy effectiveness. The study concludes that strengthening good governance practices through transparency, citizen participation, responsive bureaucracy, high-quality public services, and institutional trust can substantially improve public perceptions of local economic policy effectiveness. These findings provide practical implications for local governments in designing and implementing more effective, accountable, and citizen-oriented economic policies
Abstract:This study aims to analyze the influence of Environmental (E), Social (S), and Governance (G) on corporate financial performance as measured by Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) in companies listed…
sted on the LQ45 index of the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2023-2025 period, with Company Size (SIZE) as a control variable. The study uses a quantitative method with secondary data obtained from annual reports and corporate sustainability reports. The sample was determined using a purposive sampling technique, resulting in 45 observations included in the LQ45 for the 2023-2025 period. Data analysis was performed using panel data regression with the help of EViews 13 software. The results show that Environmental has a positive and significant effect on ROA and ROIC, while Governance also has a positive and significant effect on both indicators. Conversely, Social does not have a significant effect on ROA or ROIC. The coefficient of determination value indicates that the model is able to explain variations in ROA by 29.7% and ROIC by 32.3%. These findings indicate that environmental practices and corporate governance play an important role in improving financial performance, while the implementation of social aspects has not had a significant impact during the study period.

Abstract:This study aims to analyze the effect of Price Earning Ratio (PER), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Current Ratio (CR) on firm value, with firm size as a moderating variable, in industrial sector companies listed on the…
Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period. This study employed a quantitative approach with an associative method. The data used were secondary data obtained from companies’ annual financial reports. The sample was determined using purposive sampling, resulting in 44 companies with a total of 132 firm-year observations. The data were analyzed using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA), supported by classical assumption tests, correlation coefficient analysis, coefficient of determination analysis, simultaneous testing, and partial testing. The results of the moderation model show that firm size has a positive and significant effect on firm value, with a significance value of 0.043. Meanwhile, PER, DER, and CR do not have a significant effect on firm value after firm size and the interaction variables are included in the model. The moderation test results indicate that firm size is unable to moderate the effect of PER, DER, and CR on firm value, as all interaction variables have significance values greater than 0.05. Although PER has a positive and significant effect on firm value in the first model, this effect is no longer significant in the moderation model. The coefficient of determination in the moderation model is 12.1%, indicating that the model’s ability to explain variations in firm value remains limited. These findings indicate that firm size is a more dominant factor in explaining firm value than PER, DER, and CR in the moderation model.
Abstract:This study aims to analyze the effect of service quality and sales promotion on consumer loyalty at Ihsan Mart in Kubu Raya. This study used an associative quantitative approach with 100 respondents selected through purposive…
osive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires with a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS. The results show that service quality and sales promotion have positive and significant effects on consumer loyalty, both partially and simultaneously. The regression results indicate that sales promotion has a greater contribution than service quality in increasing consumer loyalty. However, the coefficient of determination shows that service quality and sales promotion explain 16.3% of consumer loyalty, while the remaining 83.7% is influenced by other factors outside this study. These findings imply that local retail management should not only improve service quality and sales promotion programs, but also consider other factors such as customer satisfaction, product quality, price competitiveness, store atmosphere, and consumer trust to strengthen long-term consumer loyalty.
Abstract:This study aims to examine the effect of product quality, brand image, and promotion on customer loyalty at Rumah Tempe in Pontianak City. A quantitative approach with an associative research design was used. The sample…
consisted of 100 Rumah Tempe customers selected through purposive sampling, with the criteria of being at least 17 years old, having made purchases independently, and having purchased the product at least twice. Data were collected through questionnaires using a five-point Likert scale, supported by interviews and documentation. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, preceded by validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests. The results show that product quality, brand image, and promotion have positive and significant effects on customer loyalty, both partially and simultaneously. Among the three variables, promotion has the strongest influence, indicating that effective promotional activities play an important role in encouraging repeat purchases and customer recommendations. These findings imply that Rumah Tempe should consistently maintain product quality, strengthen its brand image, and optimize promotional strategies to increase customer loyalty in the competitive local snack food market.
Abstract:This study examines the effect of inflation, interest rates (BI7DRR), and exchange rates (USD/IDR) on stock returns of PT Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk., with the Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) as an intervening variable.…
e. Using a quantitative explanatory research design, monthly secondary data spanning January 2016 to December 2025 (120 observations) were analysed using Pearson correlation and two-stage path analysis (OLS regression). Results indicate that inflation and exchange rates significantly influence IHSG, while the BI Rate does not. However, neither macroeconomic variables nor IHSG significantly affect Telkom's stock returns either directly or indirectly. The model explains only 2.7% of the variation in stock returns, suggesting that company-specific and sectoral factors dominate return determination. These findings imply that IHSG does not serve as an effective mediating channel between macroeconomic conditions and individual stock returns for Telkom. Investors in the telecommunications sector should prioritise fundamental and sectoral analysis over macroeconomic indicators when making portfolio decisions
Abstract:This study examines the effects of health, education, economic, and infrastructure expenditures, economic growth, investment, and the Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) on the Human Development Index (HDI) in Indonesia.…
a. It also compares the determinants of HDI between Western and Eastern Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach, the study applies panel data regression with the Common Effect Model and Ordinary Least Squares method. Secondary data from 2012–2021 were obtained from Statistics Indonesia, the Ministry of Finance, and other official institutions. The results show that all independent variables simultaneously have a significant effect on HDI. Partially, education expenditure, infrastructure expenditure, and investment have positive and significant effects, while health expenditure, economic expenditure, economic growth, and LFPR are statistically insignificant. Regional analysis reveals different determinants of HDI. In Western Indonesia, education expenditure, infrastructure expenditure, economic growth, and LFPR significantly affect HDI. In Eastern Indonesia, infrastructure expenditure, investment, and LFPR are significant determinants. These findings demonstrate that regional disparities in human development are associated with differences in economic capacity, infrastructure quality, investment distribution, connectivity, and development governance. Therefore, place-based development policies are required to improve the effectiveness and equity of human development, particularly in Eastern Indonesia.
Abstract:This study aims to analyze the simultaneous and partial effects of job satisfaction, employee loyalty, and work commitment on employee performance at PT Sulsel Citra Indonesia (Perseroda). This research adopts an associative…
tive quantitative approach. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 54 respondents drawn from a population of 114 permanent employees using simple random sampling. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26. The finding that The F-test result (Fcount = 60.515 > Ftable = 2.196; sig. = 0.000) confirms that all three variables simultaneously exert a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Partially, job satisfaction (t = 3.485; sig. = 0.001) and work commitment (t = 11.685; sig. = 0.000) each have a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while employee loyalty (t = -3.080; sig. = 0.003) shows a negative and significant effect. The adjusted R² of 0.771 indicates that 77.1% of the variance in employee performance is explained by the three predictors. Work commitment emerged as the dominant predictor of employee performance, followed by job satisfaction. The negative effect of employee loyalty suggests that loyalty alone does not directly translate into higher performance unless it is accompanied by adequate motivation, job satisfaction, and organizational support. These findings are consistent with previous empirical studies conducted in the plantation and service sectors

a time series method with secondary data collected from 2012–2024. The variables analyzed consisted of capital and labor as independent variables and turnover as the dependent variable. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression supported by classical assumption tests. The findings indicate that capital has a positive and significant effect on turnover, with a regression coefficient of 4.68 and a probability value of 0.0000. Meanwhile, labor shows a significant negative effect on turnover, with a coefficient value of -3.68 and a probability value of 0.0460. Simultaneously, capital and labor contribute significantly to turnover improvement, with an R-squared value of 0.912, indicating that 91.2% of turnover variation can be explained by both variables. The results emphasize the importance of effective labor management, workforce productivity improvement, and adequate capital support in enhancing the performance and sustainability of cassava rengginang home industries in Rubaru District.
