parents. This condition poses risks to physical health, emotional well-being, and overall infant development. This study aims to analyze the effect of baby massage on sleep quality among infants aged 3-6 months at Babycare Bondowoso and to identify differences in sleep quality before and after the intervention. The study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design involving 40 infants selected through total sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and observation sheets, then analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that prior to the intervention, 87.5% of infants experienced poor sleep quality, whereas after the intervention, all infants (100%) demonstrated improvement to good sleep quality. Statistical analysis indicated a p-value of 0.00, which is lower than 0.05, confirming a significant effect of baby massage on infant sleep quality. These findings demonstrate that baby massage effectively improves sleep duration, comfort, and stability through physiological relaxation mechanisms. The novelty of this study lies in providing empirical evidence of the effectiveness of baby massage as a non-pharmacological intervention that is simple, safe, and can be independently applied by parents while offering holistic benefits for infants. The findings are expected to serve as a basis for developing health education and improving infant care practices.

mpetition among driver-partners, which directly affects fluctuations in their income. This study aims to empirically analyze the influence of competition level, working hours duration, and fare policies on the income of GoRide partners in Denpasar City. A quantitative approach was used in this research, with the population consisting of all active GoRide driver-partners in the area. The sample was determined using the Slovin formula with a 10% significance level, resulting in 67 randomly selected respondents. Data were collected through the distribution of structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression methods to examine the effect of each independent variable on income as the dependent variable. The results show that the competition variable has a significant negative effect on partner income, indicating that the higher the level of competition, the lower the income earned. Conversely, working hours have a positive and significant effect, indicating that increased working duration directly contributes to higher income. Meanwhile, fare policy shows a positive but insignificant effect, meaning that although there is a statistically positive relationship, the effect is not strong enough to significantly impact income. These findings highlight the importance of efficient management of working hours and strategic adaptation to competition levels as efforts to maintain the economic sustainability of driver-partners. In addition, platform providers are advised to periodically review fare policies to ensure they remain aligned with market dynamics and partner needs, in order to maintain a sustainable income balance.

prompting the emergence of various types of markets. Modern markets, with more organized management and better facilities, often attract consumer attention away from traditional markets, despite offering higher prices. This research employs a qualitative method with an interactive approach, where the researcher directly interacts with the subjects of the study. The findings indicate that 75% of traditional market traders do not feel threatened by modern markets, as they can still attract customers with lower prices and negotiation flexibility. However, 25% of traders experience negative impacts due to decreased income, with an average decline ranging from 10% to 15%. This study highlights the necessity for traditional market traders to adapt to changes and seek new strategies to sustain their businesses amidst increasing competition. The findings aim to provide a deeper understanding of market dynamics in Gumawang City and support the development of better policies for traditional markets.

Likewise, the higher the self-acceptance, the higher the self-adjustment in the daughter-in-law.
Abstract:The substation is part of the electrical energy distribution system, therefore depending on its function it must be protected from disturbances that cause disruption to the distribution of electrical energy. One of the important…
mportant equipment in a substation is a transformer, and the protection device used is a lightning rod. With its good characteristics, the arrester plays a role in bypassing lightning currents so that the equipment does not produce high overvoltages. The analysis results show that the maximum distance between the arrester and the transformer is 10.96 meters, while the installation distance in the field is 3.2 meters, so the arrester can still protect the transformer because it is still lower than the maximum distance. Allowed. After the arrester turns on for 9.54 μs, the voltage on the transformer will drop. And because the BIL of the transformer is 650 KV and the peak voltage reaches 751.3 kV at 300 μs, the arrester can still protect the transformer.

This study aims to develop a forecasting system using the Single Exponential Smoothing (SES) and Single Moving Average (SMA) methods to predict palm oil production. The results indicate that both methods are effective; however, SMA with a Moving Average (MA) of 5 provides the best forecasting results, with a MAD of 165,941.64, an MSE of 65,823,372,491.27, and an MAPE of 15.66%, categorized as "good" forecasting. Meanwhile, the SES method with α = 0.9 yields the lowest error compared to other alpha values, with a MAD of 154,586.25, an MSE of 33,192,818,696.83, and an MAPE of 16.91%, also classified as "good" forecasting. Based on these findings, the SMA method with MA 5 is recommended as it produces lower forecasting errors than the SES method. Therefore, this forecasting system can assist the company in planning palm oil production more accurately and efficiently, supporting better decision-making in the future.

Abstract:Abstract: Tax literacy among Indonesian youth remains relatively low and has not yet become an integral component of formal learning at the senior and vocational high school levels. National data indicate that financial…
literacy stands at 49.68%, while specific understanding of taxation among young people is reported to be lower than that of the productive-age population. In addition, tax return compliance among individuals under 25 years old remains limited, reflecting weak early tax awareness and tax morale. In Magelang, high school students as future taxpayers generally lack access to contextual and practice-oriented tax education. This community engagement program aims to enhance tax literacy, awareness, and basic understanding of taxation among senior and vocational high school students through a structured and participatory educational approach. The methods included interactive lectures, contextual discussions, daily tax case studies, and simple tax calculation simulations, supported by pre- and post-tests to measure learning outcomes. The results demonstrate a significant improvement in students’ tax literacy scores and attitudes toward future compliance. The program also produced a tax literacy module and initiated student tax awareness groups in partner schools. Early tax education is therefore effective in strengthening youth tax morale and supporting sustainable national development.
