2025-04-26T21:03:09+08:00

This study aims to analyze the empirical evidence of green accounting as an intervening variable in the influence of corporate governance and environmental performance on financial performance in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2023 period. The research adopts a quantitative and associative approach. The population comprises 83 energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2021 and 2023. A purposive sampling method was applied, resulting in 53 companies over three years, yielding 159 data points. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that corporate governance and environmental performance have a direct, positive, and significant impact on green accounting. Furthermore, corporate governance, environmental performance, and green accounting positively and significantly influence financial performance. Green accounting acts as an intervening variable that strengthens the relationship between corporate governance, environmental performance, and financial performance. This study offers managerial implications, highlighting the importance of enhancing corporate governance, environmental performance, and the implementation of green accounting to improve financial performance and support sustainability. Future research is encouraged to expand the scope to other industrial sectors, incorporate external factors such as regulations and organizational culture, and adopt a longitudinal approach to examine the long-term impact of green accounting on corporate financial sustainability. These findings advocate for the development of standardized reporting policies and investment in environmentally friendly technologies to strengthen the connection between sustainability and financial performance.

Islamic Work Ethics-Based Organizational Citizenship Behavior to Improve the Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment of Higher Education Lecturers in Indonesia

2026-01-25T10:31:28+08:00

The issue of Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) among academics, especially lecturers, plays a vital role in assessing the quality and performance of higher education institutions. This study explores how Islamic work ethics, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment contribute to the development of OCB among lecturers. A total of 365 lecturers from 14 private universities were selected using proportional random sampling. The research applied Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the AMOS software to analyze the data. The results demonstrate that Islamic work ethics have a significant and positive effect on both OCB and organizational commitment. However, the influence of Islamic work ethics on job satisfaction, while positive, is statistically insignificant. Moreover, job satisfaction is found to have a strong and significant impact on OCB, but its relationship with organizational commitment remains insignificant. These findings reveal a nuanced interaction between ethical values, personal satisfaction, and voluntary behavior within the academic work environment. Given these insights, the study highlights the importance of fostering Islamic work ethics and job satisfaction to improve OCB among lecturers. Strengthening these elements may not only elevate individual performance but also enhance organizational commitment over time. As a practical implication, private university management should prioritize ethical development programs and support systems that improve job satisfaction. Such initiatives are expected to contribute to a more engaged, committed, and ethically grounded academic workforce, ultimately advancing institutional quality and effectiveness.

Organizational Culture, Work Environment, and Career Growth

2026-01-25T10:31:12+08:00

The study explores the impact of Organizational Culture, Work Environment, and Career Development on Teacher Performance through Teacher Work Motivation at Vocational High Schools (SMK) in Medan Sunggal District. Using a quantitative survey approach with a sample of 152 teachers, the study analyzed the data using PLS software version 3.0 (Partial Least Square). The findings reveal that both Organizational Culture and Teacher Work Motivation positively influence teacher performance, highlighting the importance of a strong organizational culture and motivated teachers in enhancing performance. In contrast, Work Environment and Career Development were not found to directly affect teacher performance, suggesting that while they influence daily conditions, they do not directly improve performance outcomes. The study also identified a negative relationship between Organizational Culture and Teacher Work Motivation, implying that a rigid or misaligned culture can hinder motivation. Furthermore, the Work Environment and Career Development were found to significantly impact teacher work motivation, underscoring the importance of a supportive and growth-oriented environment. Teacher Work Motivation was found to mediate the relationship between Organizational Culture and Work Environment on Teacher Performance, indicating that motivated teachers perform better when these factors are optimized. However, Teacher Work Motivation did not mediate the impact of Career Development on teacher performance, suggesting that career development alone may not be enough to enhance performance without proper motivation. The study emphasizes the need for a strong organizational culture and motivation in improving teacher performance, while also recognizing the limited direct role of career development and work environment.

2026-01-25T10:30:55+08:00

This study aimed to develop a program to increase pro-environmental awareness, knowledge, and behavior among students at SMAN X in Makassar using the Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. GREAT began with preparation, socialization, and environmental ambassador (EA) inauguration, then continues with program implementation which consists of five pro-environmental activities, namely Collecting Inorganic and Organic Waste, Cool with Reusable Stuff, Nature Gift Day, Planting and Watering a Tree to Support Green Nature, Upcycling Unused Stuff. After the implementation, a closing ceremony and program evaluation were held through FGD and self-reflection form. Overall, despite certain shortcomings that require attention for future programs, GREAT has effectively heightened awareness, knowledge, and redirected students' intentions toward pro-environmental actions not only in school but also in family and public environments. Additional endeavours are necessary to overcome challenges identified in the planning and execution of forthcoming interventions in other contexts.

Behind the Empty Plate:

2026-01-25T10:30:39+08:00

Binge eating behavior, characterized by loss of control during eating episodes, is increasing in prevalence among university students and can lead to serious physical and psychological consequences. According to the National Comorbidity Survey-Replication, approximately 1 in 25 individuals experience binge eating at some point in their lives, with higher rates in women (1 in 20) compared to men (1 in 25). This research aims to explore the psychosocial factors that contribute to binge eating behavior in university students in Indonesia, particularly in the context of changing patterns during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach with interpretative phenomenological analysis, we interviewed three female students (aged 21-23 years) who exhibited binge eating behavior based on the Binge Eating Scale (BES). Interviews were conducted both face-to-face and online between August and November 2022, with each session lasting 90-180 minutes. Five main psychosocial factors emerged: emotional eating (including stress, emotional stabilization, boredom, and sadness), social and cultural influences (including family eating habits and cultural beliefs about food waste), thoughts about food, external eating (including sensory pleasure and food availability), and the use of food as a stimulator (including diet retaliation, sleep induction, and weight gain efforts). These findings highlight the complex interaction between psychological and social factors in the development and maintenance of binge eating behavior. Understanding these factors can inform effective prevention and intervention strategies to address problematic eating behaviors among university students and potentially prevent the development of clinical eating disorders and related physical and psychological consequences.

Implementation of Education Management in Strengthening 'Nyantri Nyunda' Character among Senior High School Students

2026-01-25T10:30:07+08:00

Character education plays a vital role in shaping students' social behavior and national identity in Indonesia's diverse cultural landscape. This study aims to analyze the implementation strategy of the Nyantri Nyunda character education model in Pasundan Senior High Schools in Bandung using an educational management approach. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, involving in-depth interviews, observations, documentation, and focus group discussions with key stakeholders including school principals, teachers, students, and foundation representatives. The findings reveal that while educational management structures are in place, the integration of Nyantri Nyunda values into the curriculum and student behavior remains inconsistent due to gaps in planning, implementation, and evaluation. These values, rooted in Sundanese culture and Islamic teachings, emphasize humility, respect, discipline, and moral integrity—principles essential for holistic student development. However, challenges such as limited teacher competence in value-based education, insufficient parental and community involvement, and inadequate learning resources hinder optimal outcomes. Furthermore, the absence of a standardized framework for integrating local wisdom into school programs contributes to fragmented practices across institutions. Strategic recommendations emphasize the need for participative management that involves all stakeholders in decision-making, continuous professional development for teachers to strengthen their cultural and pedagogical competence, and stronger collaboration between schools, families, and local communities. Enhancing character education through a culturally responsive lens not only strengthens student identity but also reinforces social cohesion and moral citizenship. This study contributes to broader educational discourse by highlighting the potential of local wisdom-based models in promoting character formation aligned with national educational goals.

Strategies of the National Unity and Politics Agency in Strengthening Religious Harmony

2025-09-30T20:57:58+08:00

This study explores the strategies implemented by the National Unity and Politics Agency (Bakesbangpol) in strengthening religious harmony and examines the challenges encountered in their application. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis to gain an in-depth understanding of Bakesbangpol’s initiatives. The findings reveal that Bakesbangpol employs a multifaceted approach, including interfaith dialogues, conflict prevention mechanisms, community engagement, and public education campaigns, all aimed at fostering understanding and reducing tensions among diverse religious communities. Interfaith dialogues and the Forum for Religious Harmony (FKUB) play pivotal roles in mediating conflicts and promoting peaceful coexistence. However, the study also identifies significant challenges, such as deep-rooted social prejudices, the spread of misinformation on social media, and resource limitations that hinder the full realization of religious harmony. Despite these obstacles, Bakesbangpol’s efforts have positively impacted community relations, highlighting the importance of proactive and collaborative government-led strategies in managing religious diversity. The study concludes with recommendations to enhance these initiatives through expanded dialogue programs, improved digital literacy, strengthened community engagement, and increased resource allocation to ensure sustainable interfaith harmony.

Revitalizing Local Cultural Values through Contextual Islamic Education in the Digital Era

2025-11-18T20:38:15+08:00

This study investigates how Islamic education can be integrated with local cultural values amidst modernization and technological change. Its goal is to find effective methods and strategies for implementing culture-based education rooted in local traditions that align with the challenges of the digital age. Using a qualitative approach and a case study design, this research examines practices in Islamic educational institutions, including the use of digital technology—such as online learning and digital platforms—to improve accessibility and understanding. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis, then analyzed using thematic analysis. The results show that combining Islamic education with local cultural values is crucial for staying relevant in modern education. Digital technology offers flexible, accessible learning opportunities but also poses challenges in maintaining the authenticity and relevance of Islamic values. Discursive religious practices, involving critical discussion and group analysis, prove effective in fostering a contextual understanding of Islamic values among students despite these challenges. This research adds to the academic conversation by emphasizing the need to integrate technology with local cultural values in Islamic education to stay vital in a globalized world. The limited scope of this study suggests the need for further research, especially comparative studies across different educational settings and the development of technology-based Islamic education models that aim to enhance learning and preserve culture.

Abusive Supervision in Southeast Asia Countries:

2026-01-25T10:30:23+08:00

This viewpoint article reviews the evolving trends of abusive supervision studies across Southeast Asian countries. This article employs a traditional literature review by synthesizing references from various leading research databases. Abusive supervision is destructive and can cause adverse impacts on employees and organizations. It poses significant challenges to employee and organizational well-being. While extensive research has been documented in various Western contexts, scientific evidence related to abusive supervision in Southeast Asia remains underexplored. Southeast Asian people are characterized by a unique interplay of collectivist orientations and hierarchical power distance that may shape the tolerance, perception, and consequences of supervisory abuse. This article proposes that organizational silence and strong respect for authority figures have contributed to the emergence and persistence of abusive supervision in Southeast Asian regions. Furthermore, societal norms such as filial piety and face-saving behaviors may obscure recognition and resistance to such abuse. This article identifies several research gaps by integrating information from cultural and organizational insights. Firstly, future studies should anchor research directions with cultural values, and secondly, human resource and leadership practices must be tailored to Southeast Asian contexts. Understanding the influence of regional context on the development of abusive supervision is critical for designing responsive leadership development. This article urges context-sensitive empirical studies and collaborative human resource practices to reduce the emergence of supervisory abuse in the region.
