REFORMULATION OF VILLAGE FOOD RESERVE POLICY IN TEMANGGUNG REGENCY
type: item
description: Food security, as one of the foundations of regional development, is determined not only by food availability but also by the affordability and stability of community access to food. Temanggung Regency has relatively high food production potential, but still faces challenges such as fluctuations in commodity production, decreased food availability in certain periods, gaps in Expected Food Pattern (PPH) scores compared to provincial and national averages, and vulnerability of low-income household purchasing power due to food price fluctuations. This study aims to formulate a reformulation of the Village Food Reserve policy as an instrument for strengthening food security while protecting the purchasing power of vulnerable households in Temanggung Regency. The study uses a qualitative approach with a policy analysis design supported by descriptive analysis of secondary data on food production, livestock, fisheries, food availability, and PPH in Temanggung Regency for the 2021–2025 period. The analysis is conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions to identify gaps in policy implementation and formulate adaptive policy alternatives. The results show that the high regional food production capacity has not been fully followed by strengthening food reserves at the village level as a mechanism for stabilizing supply and prices. Policy reforms are aimed at strengthening Village Food Reserve governance based on local production potential, an early warning system for food insecurity, collaboration between stakeholders, and targeted distribution mechanisms for vulnerable households. This policy model is expected to improve regional food security, maintain food price stability, and strengthen community purchasing power in a sustainable manner.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF BANK BPD BALI BASED ON PROFITABILITY RATIOS(2020-2024 PERIOD)
type: item
description: BPD Bali plays a strategic role in regional economic development. Therefore, it is essential to maintain healthy and sustainable financial performance to support regional economic stability and growth. This study aims to evaluate the financial performance of Bank Pembangunan Daerah (BPD) Bali based on profitability ratios, namely Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), Net Interest Margin (NIM), and Operating Expenses to Operating Income (BOPO) during the 2020–2024 period. The research approach used is descriptive quantitative with evaluative analysis. Data are sourced from Bank BPD Bali's annual financial reports, which are processed to calculate profitability ratios and compared with Indonesian banking industry standards. The analysis was conducted to assess the bank's ability to generate profits and its operational efficiency. The results show that BPD Bali's ROA and ROE are in the "Very Healthy" category, with averages of 2.04% and 17.22%, respectively, indicating effective asset and capital management. While the NIM fluctuated significantly, particularly in 2022–2023, the five-year average of 3.90% is considered "Healthy." Meanwhile, BOPO (Operating Inefficiency) showed high operational inefficiency, with an average of 1,029.45%, categorized as "Unhealthy," indicating significant operating cost pressure relative to operating income. Overall, BPD Bali has consistently generated profits, but operational efficiency improvements are needed to maintain sustainable profitability.

THE EFFECT OF QR E-WALLET PAYMENT METHODS, MONEY AVAILABILITY, AND LIFESTYLE ON IMPULSIVE BUYING AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
type: item
description: This study examines the effects of QR code–based e-wallet payment methods, money availability, and lifestyle on impulsive buying among Economics Education students at the University of Lampung. A quantitative descriptive–verificative approach was applied using ex post facto and survey methods, with data collected from 283 students through questionnaires and analyzed using t-tests and F-tests in SPSS. The independent variables contributed significantly to impulsive spending, both simultaneously and partially. The F test produced an F above the critical value (88.434 > 2.66), with an R² of 0.621, proving that 62.1% of impulsive buying behavior can be explained by the independent variables, with the remaining 37.9% being influenced by other factors. The novelty of this study lies in the combined analysis of QR-based digital payments, money availability, and lifestyle, which have rarely been examined together in previous research. The findings highlight the importance of financial management and financial literacy to reduce impulsive buying behavior among students.

This research employs a quantitative approach. The sample consists of 75 students from the Polytechnic of State Finance STAN who have completed a Financial Management course. Data collection was conducted through an online Likert-scale questionnaire, and the resulting data were examined using simple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that formal financial management education has a positive and significant effect on all three dimensions of financial behavior. The strongest effect is observed in investment behavior, followed by consumption and saving behavior. These findings suggest that formal financial management education contributes meaningfully to promoting more rational and long-term oriented financial behavior among Generation Z.

THE ROLE OF EMOTIONAL DESIRE AND INSTAGRAM SOCIAL MEDIA IN INCREASING CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND ELECTRONIC WORD OF MOUTH
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the effects of emotional desire and Instagram social media on customer satisfaction and electronic word of mouth (e-WOM), as well as to examine the mediating role of customer satisfaction among consumers of Nomi-Nomi Delight East Jakarta. This research employs a quantitative approach using primary data collected through questionnaires from 170 respondents selected via purposive sampling in November 2025. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the assistance of SmartPLS software. The results indicate that emotional desire has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction, but does not significantly influence e-WOM. In contrast, Instagram social media has a positive and dominant effect on both customer satisfaction and e-WOM. Furthermore, customer satisfaction does not have a significant effect on e-WOM and fails to mediate the relationships between emotional desire and Instagram social media on e-WOM. These findings emphasize that emotional factors play a greater role in shaping internal customer satisfaction, while electronic word-of-mouth behavior is more strongly driven by the strength of digital marketing activities and content, particularly on Instagram, thereby providing strategic implications for the development of digital marketing strategies in the culinary business sector.

FINANCIAL LITERACY AND ACCESS TO LEARNING RESOURCES ON FINANCIAL BEHAVIOR THROUGH FINANCIAL SELF-EFFICACY
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy and access to learning resources on the financial behavior of students at SMKN 2 Semarang, with financial self-efficacy (FSE) serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed by distributing questionnaires to 207 students in the Accounting Expertise Program. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to examine both direct and indirect relationships among the variables. The results indicate that financial literacy has a significant effect on FSE, while access to learning resources does not show a significant influence. FSE strongly affects financial behavior, whereas financial literacy and access to learning resources do not provide a direct effect on students’ financial behavior. Mediation analysis reveals that FSE fully mediates the relationship between financial literacy and financial behavior and partially mediates the relationship between access to learning resources and financial behavior. These findings highlight that students’ confidence in managing finances plays an essential role in shaping more responsible financial behavior. The study recommends strengthening FSE through practice-based financial learning, improving the quality of financial literacy materials, and providing relevant and accessible learning resources.

THE EFFECT OF EASE OF USE OF QRIS AND SOCIAL MEDIA ON IMPULSE BUYING BY UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN SEMARANG
type: item
description: The digital revolution has fundamentally transformed consumer behavior paradigms, where the convenience of digital payments and the intensity of social media usage have become critical factors influencing impulse buying behavior among Generation Z. This study aims to analyze the effects of QRIS ease of use and social media usage intensity on impulse buying behavior among Generation Z students in Semarang City, with self-control as a mediating variable. This study employs a quantitative approach with explanatory research design involving 239 students from three public universities in Semarang City. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS software. The results indicate that QRIS ease of use does not have a significant direct effect on impulse buying, whereas social media usage intensity has a significant positive effect and self-control has a significant negative effect on impulse buying. Mediation testing using the Sobel Test demonstrates that self-control plays a significant mediating role in the relationship between QRIS ease of use and social media usage intensity on impulse buying. This research provides theoretical contributions by enriching the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) theory in the digital economy context and offers practical implications for digital marketing practitioners, educational institutions, and policymakers in developing digital financial literacy strategies to foster rational consumption patterns among students.

DESCRIPTION OF BASIC TEACHING SKILLS IN CARRYING OUT THE DUTIES OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS IN BORDER AREAS
type: item
description: This study aims to describe the current conditions of primary school teachers' competencies in Indonesian border areas (Kalimantan) in terms of Pedagogic, Personality, Social, and Professional aspects. The research method uses a qualitative-descriptive approach with literature review and limited field data. The results indicate that despite teachers in border areas normatively meeting formal qualification standards, the implementation and development of these four competencies still face significant constraints. Pedagogic competency is hindered by minimal use of innovative methods and ICT due to infrastructure limitations (Claro et al., 2024; Gangmei & Thomas, 2025). Professional competency is restricted by difficult access to learning resources and continuous self-development (Barnes et al., 2024; Fischer & McLean, 2024). Meanwhile, Social and Personality Competencies demand high adaptation to multicultural environments and geographical communication barriers. Comparatively, the quality of primary school teacher competencies in Indonesian border areas is not optimal and tends to lag behind neighboring countries' education systems, supported by more adequate infrastructure and continuous professional development focus. The main gap is caused by limitations in digital facilities and infrastructure, as well as welfare and incentive issues for teachers in Indonesia's 3T (Frontier, Outermost, Disadvantaged) regions. The emphasis on focused government policy intervention on improving ICT infrastructure and enhancing welfare and special incentives for border teachers is a key prerequisite to improving primary school teacher competencies to achieve professional quality standards.

SUSTAINABLE MSME TRANSFORMATION: INTEGRATION OF GREEN ACCOUNTING, DIGITAL COMPETENCE, AND PUBLIC POLICY
type: item
description: Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in the Indonesian economy, but face significant challenges such as low financial literacy, technological limitations, and demands for sustainable business practices. This study aims to analyze the role of green accounting and digital competence in improving the sustainable performance of MSMEs, as well as to examine the extent to which government regulations can moderate this relationship. A quantitative approach was used by distributing questionnaires to ninety-three MSME respondents, the research method used was a survey. Primary data were analyzed using multiple correlation analysis and multiple linear regression with the help of SmartPLS software. The results show that green accounting and digital competence significantly affect the sustainable performance of MSMEs. Higher implementation of green accounting is positively correlated with better economic, social, and environmental performance. Similarly, the ability of MSMEs to utilize digital technology has been proven to increase operational efficiency, expand market access, and support sustainable innovation. However, sustainable government regulations do not show a significant effect on the sustainable performance of MSMEs, nor do they moderate the relationship between green accounting and digital competence with the sustainable performance of MSMEs. This indicates that internal factors of MSMEs are more dominant than external regulations. Therefore, MSMEs are advised to strengthen green accounting and digital competencies, while the government needs to design policies that are more implementable, inclusive, and relevant to the needs of MSMEs, such as providing tax incentives, mentoring programs, and training in green accounting and digital literacy.

WORK STRESS AS A MEDIATOR OF THE EFFECT OF WORKLOAD AND CONFLICT ON TURNOVER INTENTION
type: item
description: This study aims to examine the relationship between workload and work conflict and job stress and their implications for turnover intentions. The subjects were nurses at South Tangerang City General Hospital, who daily face task pressures and the dynamics of work relationships. This study employed a quantitative approach with a causal research design. The sample consisted of 130 respondents selected from the total nurse population. Data were obtained through questionnaires and analyzed using path analysis techniques. The results showed that workload and work conflict have an influence that increases nurses' stress levels. Stressful conditions have been shown to increase the desire to leave their jobs. Furthermore, workload and work conflict, both individually and in combination, contribute directly to turnover intentions. These findings emphasize that excessive workload and unmanaged conflict can exacerbate nurses' psychological distress, thus encouraging the desire to move to another workplace. Based on these results, it is recommended that hospital management reorganize the distribution of workload, manage inter-employee conflict more constructively, and provide psychological support to reduce stress and decrease turnover intentions.

THE EFFECT OF ENTREPRENEURIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SOCIAL NORMS ON ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTIONS WITH LOCUS OF CONTROL AS A MODERATOR
type: item
description: Based on data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) in 2024, Indonesia’s population reached 281 million, with approximately 4.4 million entrepreneurs. This also indicates that Indonesia is still quite far from the minimum recommended percentage of entrepreneurs in a country, which is 2% (McClelland, 1961). This means that only 1.57% of the population are entrepreneurs.The purpose of this study was to determine the Influence of Entrepreneurial Knowledge and Social Norms on Entrepreneurial Intention with Internal Locus of Control as a Moderator on Grade XII State Vocational High School Students in Kuningan Regency. This study uses a quantitative approach of the correlational type with a survey method. The population of the study was all grade XII students of State Vocational High Schools in Kuningan Regency totaling 5441 people. The sample was determined using the Slovin formula and proportionate stratified random sampling of 373 people. The data collection technique used field research in the form of a questionnaire which was analyzed through moderated regression. Based on the results of the study, it is known that entrepreneurial knowledge has a significant negative effect on entrepreneurial intention; Social norms have a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial intentions; Internal locus of control has a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial intentions; Internal locus of control significantly weakens the effect of entrepreneurial knowledge on entrepreneurial intentions; and Internal locus of control significantly strengthens the effect of social norms on entrepreneurial intentions. Therefore, it is necessary to restructure the entrepreneurship curriculum to place greater emphasis on strengthening a positive social environment and internal locus of control rather than merely mastering cognitive theory, in order to increase the effectiveness of shaping students' entrepreneurial intentions.

ANALYSIS OF CLASSICAL THEORY IN ISLAMIC DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS: PERSPECTIVES FROM ADAM SMITH TO JOHN STUART MILL
type: item
description: Social inequality and development stagnation in many developing countries highlight the need for an economic framework that integrates not only material growth but also moral and spiritual dimensions. In this context, revisiting classical economic theory is crucial to assess its relevance and potential integration with Islamic economic values. This study aims to analyze the thoughts of classical economists such as Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Thomas Robert Malthus, and John Stuart Mill in relation to Islamic principles like justice, balance, and social responsibility. A descriptive qualitative method with a literature review approach was employed. The findings suggest that key classical principles such as market efficiency, labor specialization, and capital accumulation can be contextualized within Islamic economics through mechanisms like zakat, waqf, and the prohibition of riba. Moreover, spiritual values and accountability to God extend the meaning of development from mere economic growth to holistic well-being. The study recommends future empirical research to assess the practical implementation of this theoretical integration in development policies, especially in Muslim-majority countries.

ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF STUDENT PERCEPTIONS OF THE PPG PROGRAM AND THE TEACHING PROFESSION ON INTEREST IN BECOMING A TEACHER
type: item
description: The objective of this study is to explore how students' attitude towards the Teacher Professional Education (PPG) Program and toward the teaching profession influences their willingness to be a teacher. In this research, a quantitative paradigm in the mode of survey technique was utilized, conducted at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP), Universitas Kuningan, during the 2024/2025 academic year. 71 students were proportionately randomly selected using Slovin's formula. Likert-scale questionnaire data were analyzed with the help of SPSS using multiple linear regression. It has been revealed that students' perceptions towards the PPG Program and the teaching profession play an important role in shaping their interest in pursuing a career as a teacher. Positive attitudes towards the PPG and teaching profession foster students' interest in becoming teachers. Attitudes account for approximately 36.8% of students' interest in becoming teachers. These findings indicate that improving students' positive attitudes towards both the PPG Program and the teaching profession can increase more interest in being a teacher. While all that variance can be explained by inherent ability, other external factors not included in this study, such as family background, learning experiences, and social influences, account for the remaining 63.2% of the variance, which can contribute to influencing the career choices of students as well. Though student perceptions of the PPG Program are generally moderate to positive, their perceptions of the teaching profession as a whole, particularly of teacher welfare and workload, remain quite low. This inequality is clearly in view of the necessity of systemic remedies to the objective conditions of teaching as a profession, like career prospects and social standing. Consolidating these elements not only helps to draw talented teachers, but also benefits the long-term continuation of the profession.

THE EFFECT OF PRICE PERCEPTION, BRAND IMAGE AND EWOM ON PURCHASING DECISIONS
type: item
description: The growing interest in coffee consumption in Indonesia has led to the proliferation of various coffee brands, including Kopi Tuku, which is the focus of this study. This research examines the influence of price perception, brand image, and electronic word of mouth (EWOM) on consumers' purchasing decisions at Kopi Tuku. The study employs a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression statistical method, including t-tests, ANOVA, and regression analysis. Accidental sampling was used to select 126 respondents who were customers of Kopi Tuku between December 2024 and January 2025. Data was collected through questionnaires. Multiple linear regression analysis results indicate that price perception and EWOM significantly impact purchasing decisions, while brand image does not. These findings suggest that Kopi Tuku consumers are susceptible to price and are strongly influenced by recommendations from others. This research provides insights for Kopi Tuku's management to focus on competitive pricing strategies and leverage EWOM platforms. However, strengthening brand image should remain a priority for long-term customer loyalty. This study is expected to contribute to the development of Kopi Tuku's marketing strategy.
