IMPACT OF FLEXIBLE WORK, TECHNOSTRESS ON PERFORMANCE WITH SUPERVISOR SUPPORT AS A MODERATING VARIABLE

Turmudi — 2025-04-17

After the COVID-19 pandemic, many organizations asked employees to return to conventional work arrangements. However, the worsening air quality in DKI Jakarta led the government to implement a work from home policy for civil servants. Concerns have arisen about the performance of civil servants if work from home a form of flexible working arrangement, is implemented permanently. Thus, this research is performed to investigate the influence of flexible working arrangement on performance, incorporating technostress as an independent variable and supervisor support as a moderating variable. Using a quantitative method, 507 civil servants in DKI Jakarta who experienced flexible working arrangement for at least six months participated in the study. Data were collected via an online questionnaire and analyzed using multiple regression and moderation regression methods. The results revealed that flexible working arrangement positively and significantly influences employee performance. Technostress negatively and significantly affects performance. Supervisor support strengthens the positive impact of flexible working arrangement on performance, but its moderating effect on technostress is non-significant. Thus, while flexible working arrangement improves performance, and technostress hinders it, the negative impact of technostress can be mitigated by supervisor support, reducing its significance. This research underscores the importance of balancing flexible work arrangements with adequate supervisor support to enhance civil servants' performance.

INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES OF MILITARY PARENTS IN ENCOURAGING OPENNESS IN THEIR CHILDREN

Doni Prasetyo Tri Sumara Haryana — 2025-04-29

Interpersonal communication strategies between parents and children play a crucial role in fostering openness, especially in military families characterized by strict discipline and hierarchy. This study analyzes the communication patterns applied by military parents in supporting children's openness and identifying barriers in family communication within the military dormitory environment. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, this study examines parent-child communication experiences through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Specifically, Interpersonal Deception Theory (IDT) is used to understand how parents adjust openness in communication to avoid conflict or maintain family stability. The findings indicate that communication in military families relies on instructive, experience-based, and adaptive strategies, as well as the use of symbols and codes. However, overly formal and authoritative patterns can limit children's ability to express emotions and opinions. Parents often filter or simplify information about military duties and family issues, potentially reducing children's openness. Additionally, the hierarchical structure influences trust and emotional closeness. The study suggests that balancing authority with emotional support is essential to fostering healthy communication and ensuring a more open and supportive family environment.

Syahrul Hidayatulloh — 2025-04-29

This research aims to determine and analyze the impact of inflation, Bank Indonesia's interest rates, and exchange rates on financial performance based on return on equity in banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The subjects of this research were the banking companies in Indonesia. The data source uses panel data. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with specific criteria for companies that have undergone audits and market trends that have experienced a decline, totaling twenty seven companies. Before conducting multiple regression analysis, the data underwent prerequisite tests in the form of classical assumption tests. The research results show that: With the increase in interest rates, the net asset value in the banking industry decreases. The higher the interest rate applied, the more it will reduce the amount of bank credit. The impact will reduce profits and equity. When the exchange rate of the rupiah is higher, the tendency for prices to increase affects the rise in commodity prices. Next, production costs rise, leading to a loss of product competitiveness and a decline in company performance, marked by decreasing net profit and equity.

EFFECTIVENESS OF HYDROXYAPATITE ON BONE RENOVATION

Siti Jubaedah — 2025-04-29

Tissue damage caused by trauma, fracture or disease requires restoration to restore its function to its original state. According to data from the Hospital Information System (SIRS) 2010, cases of bone fractures in Indonesia have increased every year. Bone healing requires cells to form new bone. Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a ceramic biomaterial that is widely used because it has chemical and structural characteristics similar to the inorganic components of bones and teeth, its osteoconductivity/inductivity is very good, biocompatible and does not cause an inflammatory response. The main source of HA is synthetic materials that are chemically and biologically natural (eggshells and cuttlefish, coral, natural calcite and cow bones). In previous studies, eggshells have a higher ability in bone formation. To explain the effectiveness of hydroxyapatite in bone remodeling. Analyzing journals sourced from the PubMed, Ebsco, Google Scholar data bases taken from 2012 to 2024. There are 15 references that have been found and cover the topic of the effectiveness of hydroxyapatite on bone remodeling. Conclusion: Hydroxyapatite is effective in bone remodeling because it has a main mineral composition that resembles the mineral composition of bones, has biocompatible properties and does not cause an inflammatory response.

Chika Laily Rahmadini — 2025-04-29

This study aims to examine the extent to which social media content exposure influences consumer behavior patterns, using DeFleur's media dependency theory as the analytical framework. This theory explains that the relationship between mass media and individuals or society is dynamic and mutually influential, meaning that exposure to social media content has the potential to shape users' consumption habits. As individuals increasingly rely on social media for information and recommendations, their purchasing decisions may be influenced by the content they frequently engage with. To test this influence, the study employs a survey method by distributing questionnaires to 132 respondents who are followers of the Instagram account @jastip_dongka. This account specializes in offering online shopping services, making its followers relevant subjects for analyzing how social media exposure shapes consumer behavior. Through this survey, four main indicators of the independent variable (X) were analyzed: frequency, duration, interaction, and content type consumed. The findings indicate that all four indicators significantly impact the dependent variable (Y), which is consumptive behavior patterns. Furthermore, the study measures the overall contribution of these indicators to shaping consumptive behavior, which accounts for 29.2%, while the remaining 70.8% is influenced by factors not examined in this research.
