INFLUENCE OF OPERATING CASH FLOW AND LONG-TERM LIABILITIES ON PT WASKITA KARYA TBK’S: INFLUENCE OF OPERATING CASH FLOW AND LONG-TERM LIABILITIES ON PT WASKITA KARYA TBK’S
This study aims to analyze the effect of Operating Cash Flow (OCF) and Long-Term Liabilities (LTL) on Cash and Cash Equivalents at Year-End (CCEYE) at PT Waskita Karya Tbk for the 2015–2024 period. The background of this research is based on significant fluctuations in the financial performance of this state-owned construction company, where the management of cash flow and capital structure plays a crucial role in maintaining liquidity. The method used is a quantitative approach with a causal-associative design, utilizing secondary time-series data from annual financial reports over ten years. Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression after conducting classical assumption tests, preceded by Pearson correlation analysis. The correlation test results show a very weak relationship between OCF and CCEYE (r = 0.047) and a weak negative relationship between LTL and CCEYE (r = −0.189). The partial test results (t-test) indicate that individually, Operating Cash Flow (Sig. = 0.694) and Long-Term Liabilities (Sig. = 0.539) have no significant effect on Cash and Cash Equivalents at Year-End. Similarly, the simultaneous test results (F-test) show that OCF and LTL together do not have a significant effect on CCEYE (Sig. = 0.810). This indicates that variations in CCEYE during the period are largely explained by other factors beyond the two independent variables studied, such as financing or investing cash flows

Furthermore, brand trust serves as a key mediator that strengthens customer loyalty toward brands promoted on TikTok Shop. These findings highlight the need for a shift in digital marketing strategies: brands should focus not only on product presentation but also on emotional engagement and authentic visual storytelling facilitated by TikTok and its influencers
ANALYSIS EFFECT OF FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS ON THE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF PT MNC SKY VISION TBK FOR THE PERIOD 2015-2024
This study aims to analyze the effect of financial constraints on the financial performance of PT MNC Sky Vision Tbk (MSKY) for the period 2015-2024, amid the disruption of the media industry by Over-the-Top (OTT) services. This study uses a quantitative approach with a case study design, analyzing secondary data from published financial reports. Financial constraints are measured using the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) and Current Ratio (CR) proxies, while financial performance is measured through Return on Assets (ROA) and Net Profit Margin (NPM). The results of the analysis show that financial constraints have a significant negative effect on financial performance. During the research period, MSKY succeeded in improving its capital structure by drastically reducing its DER from 373% to 44% and increasing its CR, indicating an easing of structural financial constraints. However, profitability performance (ROA and NPM) remained consistently negative and even deteriorated sharply at the end of the period due to a significant decline in revenue. It can be concluded that financial constraints have a significant effect on financial performance, and effective management through debt restructuring, cost control, and revenue enhancement are important for achieving long-term financial stability
SELF-DEVELOPMENT OF EMPLOYEES WHO ARE STUDYING AT PAMULANG UNIVERSITY
Self-development is essential in helping students build discipline, confidence, and career readiness while managing both study and work commitments. This study examines the influence of four factors motivation to attend lectures, time management between study and work, transfer of learning, and support from the work environment and family—on the self-development of working students at Pamulang University. A quantitative research approach was employed, utilizing a survey method. Data were collected from 100 working students across various study programs. The research instrument consisted of structured questionnaires developed from specific indicator variables (X₁–X₄ and Y). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 27 and included validity, reliability, normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and linearity tests, followed by multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that all independent variables have a positive and significant effect on self- development, both individually and collectively. Motivation to attend lectures, effective time management, learning transfer, and supportive environments from work and family were shown to enhance students’ personal growth and professional readiness. The F-test (F = 33.199; Sig. = 0.000 < 0.05) confirms the overall significance of the model, while the coefficient of determination (R² = 0.583) suggests that 58.3% of the variation in self-development is explained by these four factors. In conclusion, fostering self-development among working students requires not only personal motivation and time management skills but also the effective application of learned knowledge and strong support from both family and workplace environments. These elements collectively contribute to the holistic growth and career preparedness of students managing simultaneous academic and professional responsibilities
The effect of time management on student stress levels
Management is an important skill that students must have in order to organize, plan, and control the use of time effectively to achieve academic and personal goals. This skill plays an important role in reducing psychological pressure that arises from the burden of assignments, exams, and lecture demands. This study aims to determine the extent to which time management affects students' stress levels. The method used is a quantitative method with a correlational approach. The research population consists of undergraduate students at a university, with a sample size of 100 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The research instruments consisted of a time management scale adapted from Macan (1994) and a student stress scale compiled based on Lazarus and Folkman's (1984) stress theory. The data were analyzed using simple linear regression tests with the help of the SPSS version 25 program. The results showed a negative and significant effect of time management on student stress levels (p < 0.05), which means that the better the time management skills students have, the lower their stress levels will be. The results of this study indicate that time management skills are important for maintaining a healthy balance between academic responsibilities and personal needs. It is hoped that these findings will encourage educational institutions to develop time management training programs to reduce student stress levels and improve their well-being and academic performance
THE IMPACT OF WORK STRESS AND TIME MANAGEMENT ON WORK BALANCE IN WORKING STUDENTS
A major problem in contemporary culture is the increasing trend of college students working while they are enrolled in classes. In order to meet their financial necessities, obtain professional experience, and develop their independence, many students acquire part-time or full-time jobs. However, balancing occupational and academic obligations presents significant difficulties that have an impact on time management, academic achievement, and emotional health. This combined weight can result in work stress, which is a condition that develops when an individual's ability to handle the demands of their job is exceeded, leading to tension and exhaustion. However, efficient time management is a critical ability that aids pupils in effectively planning, arranging, and balancing their activities. Students who manage their time well are frequently better able to balance their personal and professional lives, which lowers stress and boosts pleasure. The purpose of this study is to investigate how time management and work stress affect Indonesian working students' work-life balance. The study uses a survey with 102 respondents selected from different universities and takes a quantitative approach. Multiple linear regression, validity, and reliability tests were performed on the data using SPSS. The findings indicate that time management has a considerable and favorable impact on work-life balance, whereas work stress has no discernible effect. When combined, these two elements account for 60.2% of the variation in work-life balance. These results highlight how crucial time management is as a moderating factor that helps working students lead fulfilling personal and academic lives. Keywords: time management, work-life balance, working students, and work stress
 
SELF-COMPASSION AND SOCIAL SUPPORT AS KEYS FOR STUDENTS TO WORK READINESS
In an increasingly competitive job market, graduates are expected to be not only knowledgeable but also emotionally and socially prepared to enter the workforce. This study investigates the role of self-compassion and social support as key psychological factors influencing students’ work readiness. Using a quantitative descriptive approach, data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 103 fifth-semester students at Pamulang University. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS to examine both individual and combined effects of the variables. The results indicate that self-compassion and social support have a positive and significant effect on work readiness (Sig. < 0.05), with social support showing a stronger influence (β = 0.474) than self-compassion (β = 0.292). Students who receive consistent emotional and practical support from their families, peers, and lecturers tend to show higher confidence, motivation, and adaptability. Meanwhile, students with strong self-compassion demonstrate better emotional balance and resilience when facing academic or professional challenges. Together, these factors provide a psychological foundation that enhances readiness for the professional world. The study concludes that fostering emotional well-being and strengthening social connections within higher education environments can significantly improve students’ preparedness for future careers. This highlights the need for universities to integrate mentorship, counseling, and peer-support programs as part of holistic career development strategies
BETWEEN SUPPORT AND DISCRIMINATION: HOW SOCIAL ENVIRONMENTS AFFECT STUDENT SELF-CONFIDENCE IN THE DIGITAL AGE
The purpose of this study is to see how social discrimination and social support impact the level of self-confidence of college students in the digital era. Social discrimination (frequency of experience, type, intensity of emotional impact, perception of injustice, duration of exposure), social support (frequency of interaction, emotional, informational, and instrumental support, online quality, and frequency), and self- confidence (academic confidence, social self-esteem, ability to overcome challenges, self-expression rather than social discrimination) were measured through a Likert scale-based questionnaire, using a quantitative survey method with a sample of 106 students. Social discrimination had no significant effect on self-confidence, while social support had a positive and significant effect on self-confidence (β= 0.589, p < 0.05). With no autocorrelation or multicollinearity issues, the regression model explained 30.2% of the variation in self-confidence. The conclusion shows how important social support is to increase students' self-confidence in the digital era
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF PT SEMEN INDONESIA (PERSERO) TBK FOR PERIOD 2020 - 2024
This study aims to analyze the financial performance of PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk during the 2020–2024 period using a ratio-based financial statement analysis approach. The research method used is descriptive quantitative, with secondary data in the form of the company's annual financial reports obtained from the official PT Semen Indonesia website and the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The financial ratios analyzed include Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), Net Profit Margin (NPM), Current Ratio (CR), and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER). The analysis results indicate that PT Semen Indonesia's financial performance fluctuated during the study period. After experiencing pressure due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the company demonstrated improved financial performance in subsequent years, particularly in terms of asset efficiency and increased net profit. However, the solvency ratio indicates a continued high dependence on external funding, indicating the need for more optimal debt management. Overall, PT Semen Indonesia's financial performance is expected to improve in 2023–2024, reflecting the company's adaptive strategy to maintain stability and profitability amidst the dynamics of the national cement industry
THE INFLUENCE OF ESG AND GCG PRACTICES ON FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF COMPANIES IN INDONESIA: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW
In the era of innovative management practices and digital transformation, the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices with Good Corporate Governance (GCG) is crucial for enhancing financial performance in emerging markets like Indonesia. This systematic literature review (SLR) examines the influence of ESG disclosure, scores, and risk factors, alongside GCG mechanisms such as board independence and institutional ownership, on key financial metrics like Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and profitability in companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI). Using PRISMA 2020 guidelines, searches were conducted via Harzing's Publish or Perish on Google Scholar, yielding 300 records from 2015-2025, with 12 empirical studies selected (10 local and 2 global benchmarks from Scopus). Findings indicate a predominantly positive relationship (80% of studies), where ESG practices boost ROA by 5-12% and GCG moderates effects in the banking sector, though gaps exist in digital integration and syariah compliance. This review provides implications for sustainable strategies, recommending AI-driven ESG-GCG frameworks to align with ICOMBEC themes and guide policymakers.
