The Effectiveness of Support Group Therapy on Depression and Anxiety Levels Among the Elderly in The Halim Subdistrict of East Jakarta
Aging is often accompanied by physiological, psychological, and social changes that increase the risk of mental health problems, particularly depression and anxiety. Effective psychosocial interventions are needed to help older adults manage these challenges and improve their well-being. This study aimed to determine the effect of Support Group Therapy on reducing depression and anxiety levels among older adults in Halim Village, East Jakarta. This study employed a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a pre-test–post-test approach. The sample consisted of 34 older adults selected using purposive sampling based on predetermined inclusion criteria. The intervention was delivered through 10 structured sessions, each focusing on specific topics related to emotional well-being and peer support. Data normality was tested using the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test, while statistical analysis was conducted using paired t-tests and independent sample t-tests. The results showed a significant difference (p < 0.001) in depression and anxiety levels before and after the intervention, indicating that Support Group Therapy is effective in reducing depression and anxiety among the elderly. These findings contribute to nursing practice, particularly in mental health nursing, by supporting Support Group Therapy as an effective psychosocial intervention to improve the mental health of older adults. This intervention may be implemented sustainably in community settings and health care facilities that provide services for the elderly.Lanjut usia merupakan proses pertumbuhan dan perkembangan yang normal, namun sering diikuti dengan berbagai perubahan fisiologis, psikologis, dan sosial.

ANALISIS DAMPAK KURIKULUM MERDEKA TERHADAP KEMAMPUAN LITERASI MATEMATIKA PESERTA DIDIK DI MTS MAZRO’ATUL HUDA WONORENGGO DEMAK [ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF THE INDEPENDENT CURRICULUM ON STUDENTS’ MATHEMATICAL LITERACY ABILITIES AT MTS MAZRO'ATUL HUDA WONORENGGO DEMAK]
International assessments such as PISA indicate that Indonesian students’ mathematical literacy remains below the global average. This situation is one of the factors underlying the introduction of the Independent Curriculum, which aims to enhance the quality of education, particularly in the domain of mathematical literacy. As the improvement of mathematical literacy has become a central focus of this new curriculum, it is essential to evaluate the extent to which its implementation affects students’ literacy outcomes. This study aims to examine the impact of the Independent Curriculum on the mathematical literacy abilities of students at MTs Mazro’atul Huda Wonorenggo. The research employs a qualitative method with a field research design using a case study approach. Three participant groups were involved: the principal of MTs Mazro’atul Huda Wonorenggo, the eighth-grade mathematics teacher, and 30 eighth-grade students. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings reveal that the implementation of the Independent Curriculum has not significantly improved students’ mathematical literacy abilities. The average score on the mathematical literacy test was 65.833, placing students in the low category. Similarly, the 2023 ANBK results show that only 40–70% of students achieved the minimum numeracy competency, with no substantial improvement from the previous year. Although the curriculum has been implemented reasonably well, further support is needed—particularly in the form of teacher training, more diverse learning media, and more targeted policy measures—to achieve meaningful improvement in students’ mathematical literacy.
BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT: Hasil studi internasional seperti PISA menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan literasi matematika peserta didik di Indonesia masih berada di bawah rata-rata global. Kondisi ini menjadi salah satu latar belakang lahirnya kebijakan kurikulum merdeka yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan, khususnya dalam aspek literasi matematika. Peningkatan kemampuan literasi matematika menjadi fokus utama dalam pelaksanaan kurikulum baru ini sehingga penting untuk mengevaluasi sejauh mana dampak kurikulum merdeka terhadap kemampuan literasi matematika peserta didik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dampak implementasi kurikulum merdeka terhadap kemampuan literasi matematika peserta didik di MTs Mazro’atul Huda Wonorenggo. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan desain penelitian lapangan melalui studi kasus. Tiga kelompok partisipan dilibatkan dalam penelitian ini, yaitu Kepala MTs Mazro’atul Huda Wonorenggo, guru matematika kelas VIII, dan 30 peserta didik kelas VIII. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi kurikulum merdeka belum memberikan kontribusi nyata dalam meningkatkan kemampuan literasi matematika peserta didik. Nilai rata-rata dari hasil tes kemampuan literasi matematika menunjukkan angka 65,833 yang mengindikasikan bahwa kemampuan literasi matematika mereka berada pada kategori rendah. Data ANBK tahun 2023 juga mengindikasikan bahwa hanya 40–70% peserta didik yang telah mencapai kompetensi numerasi minimum, dengan peningkatan skor yang tidak signifikan dibandingkan tahun sebelumnya. Meski pelaksanaan kurikulum telah berjalan cukup baik, masih dibutuhkan dukungan lebih lanjut berupa pelatihan guru, penyediaan media pembelajaran yang lebih beragam, serta kebijakan yang lebih spesifik agar peningkatan kemampuan literasi matematika dapat tercapai secara optimal
ANALYSIS OF LONG SHORT – TERM MEMORY (LSTM) PARAMETERS IN PREDICTING IHSG
For investors looking to enhance the value of their financial assets, stock investment is a popular choice. A Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model will be used to forecast the movement of the Indonesia Composite Index (IHSG) in the domestic capital market. This research focuses on key parameters of the LSTM model, such as sliding window size, the number of epochs, the learning rate, and the type of optimizer. There are four configurations that were tested. First, the sliding window size was varied while keeping other parameters constant. Second, while maintaining the other parameters, the number of epochs was modified. Third, while keeping the remaining parameters unchanged, the learning rate was adjusted. Lastly, while holding the other parameters constant, different optimizers were tested. The dataset is divided into two periods, such as: pre-pandemic and during the pandemic. The dataset is segmented into training and testing sets for every period. During the pre-pandemic period, the best-performing parameters included a sliding window size of 20, training over 40 epochs with a learning rate of 0.001, and the Adam optimizer, resulting in an RMSE of 7.2218. The best results during the pandemic period were obtained with parameters consisting of a sliding window size of 5, 10 epochs, a learning rate of 0.001, and the Adam optimizer, resulting in an RMSE of 1.727. These parameter combinations demonstrated the highest predictive performance for IHSG.

GLOBAL BRAND – LOCAL CHOICE: PENGARUH BRAND IMAGE DAN COUNTRY OF ORIGIN TERHADAP CONSUMPTION MELALUI PURCHASE INTENTION
The Food and Beverages (F&B) industry is one of the important sectors in Indonesia. Chairman of the Indonesian Franchise Association at the 22nd International Franchise, License, and Business Concept Expo and Conference 2024, said that the franchise business in Indonesia is dominated by foreign brands. The large potential of the Indonesian market for the F&B industry is what then causes the emergence of tight competition between foreign brands and local brands, so that in the end many are unable to compete. However, there is one brand of ice cream and tea drinks from China, Mixue Ice Cream & Tea, which has started expanding its business overseas since 2018 and is still surviving in the international market. The very fast development of business in just three years (2018 – 2021), makes it interesting to conduct research on the factors that influence consumers to purchase F&B products. This research uses a quantitative approach with a causal research type with a cross-sectional method. This research uses multivariate analysis Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), which focuses on variance to handle the complexity of research models involving several latent variables. The research results show that Brand Image and Country of Origin have a positive and significant effect on Consumption through the mediation of Purchase Intention. These findings imply that marketing strategies should prioritize building a strong and trustworthy brand and effectively communicating the product's country of origin to strengthen consumers' purchase intentions, which in turn increases the likelihood of consumption
